I finally got round to buying the Beelink EQ14 I'd promised myself. Sips electricity & handles 4k content. Can't comment re usage as I havent got round to setting it up yet. I believe it shipped with Win11 but I'll be putting linux on it

You can't always simply VPN around it. I applied for a job via one of the popular job sites. Tried to log back in to the job site a week later only to to find my account had been blocked until I provide proof of ID to a US based third party company ...I'm in Europe. Spoiler alert: I did not provide proof of ID & so have no idea whether or not I was a suitable applicant for the job.
Guess i won't be job hunting through that site again. The whole thing is farcical.
Panasonic. Bought current Panasonic TV a few years ago based on the strength of our previous one. Brilliant picture quality on both. Never connected to the interpipes
I remember looking at some docs about upgrading versions, but I don't know how to tell which version I have.
- User icon (top right) > ≡ menu (top left) to open side bar. Current version is displayed at the bottom of the side bar
As a general rule when installing anything with Docker Compose, rather than using "latest" I prefer to specify a version as it makes it easier to roll back should i find issues with an update.
Great share. These pretentious asshats gave me a hearty belly laugh, thank you
My summer project was to build racking & organise my garage & ive just recently finished it. As with the rest of our house Homebox has been great, your work with Homebox is very much appreciated thank you.
I use a Pi5 with SSD (running Raspberry OS Lite 64bit). It runs Nextcloud, Nginx, DuckDNS, Docker, Portainer & also syncing Joplin & Memories for other family members to see holiday photos/special events (I run Immich on an alternative server not exposed to www). Only 1 user but its run flawlessly & seems pretty fast to me
I'm anti enshittification & pro digital privacy. A few years back when Evernote started restricting their service & a password manager I'd paid for multiple users for fucked me over it dawned on me that "Big Tech" did not have my best interests at heart. Since that Eureka moment I formed an interest in FOSS & ive not looked back.
I'm not in IT, 100% self taught. Started with Nextcloud with NGINX. I expose as little as possible, the rest is local only though ive set up Wireguard for external access.
I self host mostly what everyone else does: Nextcloud, Joplin, Paperless, Immich etc etc. Special shoutout to Homebox which ive found extremely useful when boxing up & organising our roof space & garage. I like to use Docker containers.
Its become a bit of a hobby & the path led me to the Fediverse. The next step is likely switching fully to Linux
I absolutely loved Reddit. Deleted my posts & left after the Spez api farce (Joey on Android you were a good soldier). I occasionally go back there anonymously to check niche subs (using Redlib).
Reddit is essentially shite now:
- Endless bots
- Same crap re-posted repeatedly (describe your cat I'll draw it, 12 shitty manga characters - pick one to fight on your team, this is my cat the last thing you ate is its name etc etc etc
- The exact same jokes repeated endlessly
- Reply after reply quoting the next few words of a song lyric
- Topic replies tend to go way off the rails within 2 posts
Fediverse seems to be a more knowledgeable/mature crowd. Some great information disseminated. Ive seen some wonderful actual discussions between people with differing points of view asking for further clarification then discussing further. You never see that on Reddit.
Sure, we could do with a ton more posts & the niche communities continue to struggle but I'd much rather visit Lemmy 2 or 3 times a week than Reddit every day.
Voyager on Android. I subscribe to as much as I could find that I was interested in. These show in "Home" feed.
I look through the "All" feed to see whats going on & subscribe to anything relevant, then switch back to "Home" for my individual feed.
Amirite?
Might be worth looking into FLIRC USB
