Proxmox or even just lazy old KVM GUI for anything that needs to be deployed manually in a VM (Home Assistant, WIndows VM, etc.). Otherwise you can even just spin up whatever manual service you want to run on an LXC container or bare metal host with the correct security settings with systemd and selinux if you want to be extra careful.

Docker/Podman (the superior one lol) is just an automated deployment system in container form (like Ansible). It great for automated deployment without having to manually configure the installation process and worry about upgrades, changes, etc. You can even easily create your own images on the fly just for the purpose of having it run a single service inside a container.

Proxmox equivalent would be like using Terraform/OpenTofu to deploy VMs to do the same thing. Its possible, but just not that common because of the reduced overhead with containers, and well supported deployment images with docker/podman specifically.

Generally speaking, I’ve seen proxmox used more in lab environments were you want to emulate something like a complete network of machines whereas docker/podman has become the defacto server deployment platform.

You’re just much more likely to find software with a published docker container and default docker compose script than the same thing in Terraform or even K8s/K3s.

This would be funnier if it were emacs since that’s the one that has a metric ton of plugins for all of these

There was actually a pretty good comment here once about how MLK and Gandhi only really succeeded with progress when a visible and difficult threat to the system was perceived.

Civil rights stagnated until the ramp up with the march to Washington and widespread riots from groups like the black panthers were damaging public society.

Similarly, Gandhi had trouble convincing the British to even consider independence until widespread communal violence swept the nation in the aftermath of WWII.

Both figures were touted as succeeding in history books due to their non violent movements, but in reality they simply became the center of attention for media at the time which solidified them as icons of their respective movements.

Ironically, both were assassinated which means their opposition definitely viewed them as a a powerful political threat, and not just some supporters for peace.

Sounds like a rockchip board like orangepi haha. It’s funny because they actually have some killer hardware, but documentation on kernel drivers and DTB boot chain is sketchy at best.

I will pay hard cash money for some devs to bring postmarketos to quality hardware vendors.

I’m all for buying a pinephone, but man are we missing out on the full potential from some genuinely good OEM hardware stuff like razr flip.

Aside from google doing google things, android has been a bloated java pos toy OS for nearly a decade now. It completely wastes the full potential of superior hardware by running everything on a shitty JVM known as the ART that was designed for when devices had <512mb of RAM. A Nintendo 3DS can do better multi process tasking than modern android which regularly kills app threads for no reason other than to screw with you because you dared to switch to a different app for 5 seconds.

Android was supposed to be the big apple killer because of its closeness to a desktop OS with heavy emphasis on widespread features and functionality. Even technically speaking, rooting got you there if you wanted to run whatever straight on the linux environment or swap kernels.

Its nothing but a ripoff iOS clone now. Android 7/8 was probably the peak of development and usability, and even back then people were complaining it didn’t have groundbreaking improvements like 6 or lollipop.

People will use every one of these horrendous messaging subapps but scoff at the idea of downloading signal or even whatsapp.

Terminal emulators are bloat, real arch users use the real teletype (tty) as intended lol

Technically the current version of freenet became hyphanet, and the new version of freenet is under development.

The core issue is still total users and tradeoff of speed vs anonymity. Not enough people will use it unless it really becomes a core necessity or it offers something better.

I recently realized I forgot to use reflink copy on an XFS filesystem and ran duperemove which freed ~600GB of data

Brand spanking new Kali linux after it was redone from Backtrack.

Thought I was cool for 5 seconds until I saw the Kali forums tearing into the thousands of idiots like me who hadn’t touched Linux before but somehow managed to jump through the sketchy Debian installer to load an OS with a metric ton of offensive security tools that none of use knew how to use.

Eventually played with Ubuntu for home use, disliked it, tried Debian which was nice for server, saw Linus Torvalds uses Fedora for user friendly experience, and ended up there.

Sorta related but these “next gen” FSs are pretty overrated on the performance benchmarks lots of groups like Phoronix do every kernel release.

BTRFS lags behind a ton compared to XFS, even though XFS was originally designed for large file throughput on servers.

Even EXT4 beats BcacheFS and BTRFS on several irl load benchmarks.

Only thing I’ve seen actually keep up is F2FS which iirc is the default on Android these days.

The Debian 6.12 kernel trying to find modules for your fancy new hardware:

Someone I know genuinely tried this in a test branch for a Blazor application developed at a university, and the AI introduced insanely hidden UI breaking bugs because it touched every single file and renamed variables to plural without correctly refactoring in every dependent file lmao.

AI is a powerful tool, but throwing an entire codebase at it is exactly how you nuke your development lol. Even the latest and greatest models can’t handle complexity beyond a few thousand lines even with increased input limits. And if it’s anything proprietary or even not well published, you’re basically screwed.

Kind of a lazy question, but are any of these protocols substantial over 802.11, especially if you just use p2p/adhoc/mesh modes?

I haven’t touched mobile networks in a while so I’ve forgotten a lot, but iirc the main concern of mesh networks was efficient routing (which has been solved with some cool algorithms) and power efficiency for devices transmitting (again could have sworn 802.11 and even bluetooth can already achieve this).

Zigby particularly stood out as annoying to me as it includes its own 2.4ghz physical layer stack which uses the same range as WiFI, which is already overcrowded as hell and relies on some CSMA/CA magic to make even the most apartment crowded area of APs function decently.

Does jellyfin do untranscoded video/audio?

Haven’t used it in years but finally building up my media server again and I remember it had some funky settings for hardware encoding back then which I didn’t need because I was connecting to it via a repurposed gaming laptop that could easily handle 4k content and surround sound by itself.

Right there’s actually like a select few applications that support it which is cool, but so many get confused when they see an apng file with frames.

stupid inodes preventing me from burning though my drive life

Yeah I have a bash one liner AI model that ingests your media and spits out a 99.9999999% accurate replica through the power of changing the filename.

cp

Out performs the latest and greatest AI models

That’s not true, they got the same centrifuges as NK which they (and LIbya) bought from Pakistan lol.

Although it also took NK an additional 15-20 years to actually make a usable bomb, so maybe having your nuclear scientists and enrichment plants destroyed every year doesn’t really speed up the process.

Either that or Pakistan sold them duds lol

I’ve actually been bumped by lots of wasps and bees in rather funny ways, thankfully with no sting. They are more likely to be aggressive the closer you are to their hive. Otherwise the foragers usually try to avoid confrontation unless challenged.

The most insane one was definitely when I was hanging around a sunflower field where there were hundreds of bees and hornets flying around, but to them I was just another plant with no nectar, so they would just move on.

The other funny one was when I was eating an apple and like 5 bees landed on it while I was biting down on it because apparently they liked the smell and tasted the sugary apple juice on the surface. They seemed unbothered by the fact it was moving around and me not trying to push my luck begrudgingly let them have the rest of the half eaten apple lol.
