My mother's writings, in WordStar 4.0. Took some research to open and read them decently today.

Astonishing enough some old fart in love with WordStar not only created all the necessary conversion tools but even packaged WordStar 7 (the last existing release) so that it can be used today.

Edit: to put this in context, WordStar 4 used to run on an IBM compatible 8086 4.7Mhz PC, with wopping 640kb ram and 5.25 floppy disks. We already had an hard drive, some 16mb (iirc) beast that took two full 5.25 bay slots and was driven via MF/RL analog signals or something similar

Yes I do.

Everybody loves him, super nice person, always available, always has the right answer.

I see he is a manipulative person with emotional issues that keeps everything always compressed inside.

I never tested copyparty... Thank you for the test... Nice! I am using OpenList at this time, but CC is also nice.

Yes it's docker... Immich is only deployed via docker.

Indeed its your docker mount points / volumes.

Just use Nginx... It isn't that difficult, after all.

Or try any one of the "simplified" other proxies out there. I never seen the need for NPM anyway, as it just obfuscate nginx configuration stuff from your eyes.

I wrote for my own benefit, and for others who might be interested.

Gentooer here. Emerge sync &; world daily at night.

Weekly a manual check for stuff that doesn't autoupdate for reasons.

Monthly / biweekly podman compose pull for containers. Manual, because i don't trust that kind of autoupdate.

Edit: opnSense updates are manual only when I remember because if it breaks, I must be at home to fix it or i lose remote access and that's bad.

Gentoo user here.

Of course I always build every package from source because that's how Gentoo works.

Well, you get well optimized software for your specific cpu and architecture that often will not run on a different CPU. At the cost of lots of time.

For big ones like Firefox or rust I always choose the prebuilt ones... But everything else is from sources.

Also, another great advantage is to customize package features to your likings, like disable an audio backend or enable another, and such.

The failure of globalization?

Where it was supposed to lift third world countries from poverty and instead created bigger wealth gaps?

Font know really. It's like that in many places... India, Mexico, South Africa just a few that I have seen.

It's mostly failure of the state.

Navidrome + tempo (or any other subsonic clients)....

And spotizerr to fetch from deezer/Spotify once. Or Slskd for a nice soulseek experience

I think your autocorrect went a bit too far, I cannot understand what you wrote.

Using a different distro feels awkward. I am so used to how stuff is organized in Gentoo :) but it's still Linux, so no, it's only minor differences.

(Spcially, i hate when using a SystemD based distro, because i am not used to it and it honestly feels cumbersome compared to OpenRC. Gentoo also has SystemD support, it fully support it, but i never found the need for it, so i never switched, and never got familiar with it. My fault)

Last weekend i setup a laptop from deleting the windows partition to full LXQT desktop in 4 hours. The laptop is quite fast, and i skipped all ocmpiler hogs like firefox (choosed firefox-bin) and rust (choosed rust-bin). Later on, i also installed a full plasma+kde environment in some more 10 hours (all compile time in background, while using the laptop on LXQT).

The biggest downside of Gentoo is being so niche, i always fear that some day it will be abandoned due to too few people maintaining it. I had this fear for the last 10 years, and never happened, so.

There are no real downsides to Gentoo IMHO, except becoming too expert with Linux :)

Really, it's mostly understand what your are doing and editing text files. Much easier and better documentation than most other distro.
