This is open of those projects where the entire rationale is Because I can!

It seemed to think there was no other way to solve the problems she presented it.

Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC…

In combination with massgravel.

Sorry, I thought you were saying it was a pain to setup and run anything else, I disagreed with that. It is performance limited because it is a NAS after all, but still completely functional. I’ve never installed anything on one that it couldn’t handle, but perhaps someone else has. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am new to GrapheneOS, and I love it. However, it doesn’t work with Google Pay, Wallet, or Moto Tag devices.

I also prefer the unbloated ROM and limiting what Google can do on my phone. However, this new captcha thing is worrying: https://www.digitaltrends.com/phones/the-makers-of-security-first-grapheneos-are-putting-google-and-apples-tactics-on-blast/

I disagree. Docker containers are pretty easy to set up on it, though I admit that the small memory sucks in terms of performance.

Probably an *arr stack, nextcloud, and tailscale.

Me neither, but I want it.

What about the fact that Sailfish OS uses Alien Dalvik to emulate the apps in an LXC container? More

This is a company that is committing to never selling customer data and I appreciate that. But yeah, I think blocking Web browsers is maybe a little much. Plus I need Lemmy to get my bean fix 🫘.

They have created a shit phone, but they are proud of it. It’s essentially a less dumb version of a dumb phone.

It’s one where you don’t have to worry about someone emailing you after-hours, see your aunt bitching about her 7th husband, or get you distracted when you should be remodeling the house.

I may not agree with it… I would be more open to A full blown sailfish install, but I see the vision.

I’m sorry, did I miss something? The commodore phone doesn’t have social media applications.

Edit: Yes I did miss something. True it comes with Whatsapp running in an emulator in an LXC container. https://factually.co/fact-checks/electronics-tech/android-app-compatibility-on-sailfish-os-real-tests-a787aa

…So is sailfish… But ultimately I think the reason they went with it is that it is much more secure than an android phone as it ensure your privacy is respected. You can still run android applications, but you don’t have to worry about Google apps spying on your activity. Similar to Graphene OS where you can actually manage the permissions of Google apps rather than allowing it to have unfettered access to everything. Or heck, you don’t even need to install any Google application to be able to use either Graphene or Sailfish. To me, they are just better ecosystems. And heck, sailfish isn’t the only one. There is also postmarket os, Mobian, Manjaro ARM, Arch ARM, Ubuntu Touch, PureOS, and many more.

Screenshot cause I’m lazy and tired.

I’m working on a project involving home assistant, zigbee, and Google home. In a perfect world the doorbell would make all the Google homes chime. Not sure if it is going to work, but I know that I can simply hook up a Bluetooth speaker to the brains of it and it’ll work.

Materials

• Doorbell: https://a.co/d/02HBrOnB
• ESP32-C6: https://a.co/d/011HRydn

Software

My home assistant will be a docker container. In order to make this work, I will be installing esphome on the esp32. I got an esp32 screen because it will also operate a self watering garden, but you don’t need to. It will need to be configured as a zigbee proxy for home assistant, but seems pretty straight forward.

Try Zen, it’s a fork. Interface is much cleaner.

As an American, it took me a minute to figure out why this was a meme. Wish we used metric though.

This is Linux memes, sir. What works on Windows does not work here.

Huh, I didn’t realize there was an AUR for it already. It would only take yay -S linux-cachyos.

But I need to fix my btrfs/snapper anyways.

I broke it after reverting by messing up my subvolumes. Swap was not properly setup and somehow reverting also broke my snapshots subvolume.

I also want time to test on my spare laptop first so I can create a script/config for it to deploy to my school laptop and gaming rig. But it’s exam week for school and I need to finish transferring a 25TB VM to a hardware server.

I’ll mess with it over spring break.

Thanks to hyprland, I’ve fallen in love with Arch. Sure it works on other distros, but the AUR is great for easy configuration. I’m running it on my container server, my laptop, my gaming rig, and my OneXPlayer(portable gaming rig). That said, I have been eyeing CachyOS because of the kernel optimization plus it seems easier to install.

I’ve been in a similar position to you. I was in an accident and woke up missing a quarter of my skull.

Props for getting back to servers and code as a part of your recovery. The recovery process for me took a long time and a lot of work. I imagine you are in a similar position and question whether things will ever be the same again, the same way I have. I don’t know your particular situation very well, true. But for me, recovery not only took a lot of exercise, balance routines, relearning vocabulary, and a couple of surgeries; but it also took a lot of faith.

Shoot, you mentioned your projects, I did something similar. I found a hypervisor on Craigslist and set up Apache Cloudstack. I pushed myself to learn DevOps skills on it, Jenkins, terraform, cloud-init, and I’m still working on a AWS DevOps Cert.

But I would like to say kudos on your work. I think that doing it during your recovery is an extremely difficult prospect, but I do think that it pays off in the long run.

tldr; I think your recovery is coming along great. You may have quite the ways to go down that road, we don’t really know. But until you’re fully recovered, you will be in our hearts, minds, and prayers.

I mean I have a water-cooled Ryzen 9950X, Radeon 7900 XTX, 64 GB DDR5, 4 TB nvme, and 5120x1440 HDR monitor.

Plays borderlands 4, Rocket League, Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West, Jedi survivor, elite dangerous, Sifu, star wars outlaws, god of war, cyber punk, and Elden Ring. And most of those run better for me on Linux than they did on Windows. For one, the various launchers(Ubisoft, epic, etc) actually stop when you stop playing the games, but fps is better too.

Have you had issues playing games on Linux? I can help if you need it. Highly recommend Nobara. It is based on fedora, a fairly well known and reliable version of Linux. The main difference is instead of the fedora kernel, it uses the kernel built by CachyOS. This optimized kernel results in roughly 10+ fps in games.

Idk why your switching off of Windows, but for me it is all the Microslop spyware they’ve been installing. Good God, I just installed Windows 11 home(instead of pro) on a PC for the first time and they literally showed ads during the installation. Plus the AI nonsense… ugh… Why do I need notepad to send my data to an AI? That’s stupid, I want my data to be local and never leave my computer without my permission.

Regardless, good luck on your gaming journey! XD
