What’s the container’s name? I was about to get backblaze and then was frustrated at the cost difference between the desktop personal plan and the one for deploying on my server

Is there some good automated way of doing that? What would it look like, something that compares hashes?

In case you haven’t heard, World of Goo 2 is just coming out! And like their other games, Linux is supported but you can also buy for direct download from them

Ha I like it. Yeah I skipped the underscore/hyphen for that reason.

Desktop: HAL9000

laptop: HALjr

Phone: HALnano

Then HALserver, HALprinter (octoprint), HALhome (home assistant) and so on… Big fan of Stanley Kubrick haha

Tried to get the hal9.ooo domain name but it was taken…

Edit: I use Dave as the username, so that in the terminal it is dave@hal9000, which just seems appropriate

Well, I guess you don’t wanna fuck around with an angry rabid penguin, but this person should be ok resizing a partition 😂

I recently tried shortwave (flatpak) and it works pretty well. Let’s you search for public streams, and if the radio stream includes song data, it even auto records individual tracks for you if you want. Pretty minimalist and functional

Ooooh that looks interesting. I haven’t messed around much with tailscale since I set it up a few years back and hadn’t noticed this. Funny, I was just the other day wondering if they might have something like that, but didn’t look it up. Thanks!

Yeah, what @anamethatisnt@lemmy.world suggested is definitely the easiest thing and super practical - I got family members on my tailnet for this purpose. I am however now also looking into some kind of tunneled, reverse proxied and authenticated way to expose a few of my services to other friends where I don’t want to have to put them on tailscale or potentially expose them to more than needed via that route.

I haven’t started yet, but I am updating my network set up soon to install a dedicated OPNsense router as the edge for my network. From there, the plan is to have a cloudflare tunnel that accesses some of these services via a caddy reverse proxy, with Authelia for authentication. That’s the part I have studied enough to feel confident I can do. I am a little weaker on the networking aspects of this, which is where I need to study some more - like isolating those services that are exposed in my network, while still giving them access to some other needed resources within it, etc.

I was looking for something similar for a while, like something for simple relational data with some GUI for data entry, aka “I don’t wanna write a little web app just for this”. I had used AirTable at work before at work so that’s what came to mind and my searching was basically for “open source or selfhosted alternative to AirTable”.

Came across some decent candidates, can’t remember all the names, but the one I tried, Grist, was pretty straightforward and did the job: easy relational data setup, GUI for all basic data types including file uploads, easy to create input forms, and widgets that talk to the API and you can customize with JavaScript. Setup was easy with docker

EDIT: other names that came up when looking were NocoDB and BaseRow ( I don’t remember why I didn’t try them for my specific needs)

I just started using both recently and it’s great. For the fzf file search, there’s even some extension that can show a preview pane of text files and even images!

Same here, I have chromium installed basically just for teams usage

Never heard of mktemp before, that’s need. Come to think of it I never thought about how /tmp is really used by the system in the first place, time to do do studying I guess

IIRC, Azure represents the largest slice of Microsoft’s revenue… And ironically, a fair chunk of that is run on Linux

Ah thanks for letting me know about Rx Resume! Great resource, and actually solves the last mile problem (creating the document) of my little personal app. I am a bit of a jack of all trades, so I made a little database for the resume where the lowest level item (the little bullet points in the experience) can have tags attached to them. So I might describe the same job/experience in multiple ways depending on who the audience is, and then filter for the tags to only get the bullet points that are relevant for that position and generate a resume.

Now instead of going into some whole slog of coding document generation, I can just export that bit as JSON and import into Rx Resume! Thanks again!

Ah thanks! I am working with .NET, and I was surprised how there’s little out there in terms of (open source) libraries for LaTex (I did some research since this comment). I might end up going with docx via the OpenXML API. Also, I haven’t really used LaTex before (has been on on my learning to-do list), and once I started messing with some templates, I realized I need to learn a lot more first.

One thing with my documents is that find and replace alone won’t work, as I need to replace some patterns. I am generating resumes, so I need to take something like a pattern for a job, and then repeat it several times

Oh wait, I misread (or assumed) that’s what they were talking about! Dang… BTW, in my case it works if you drag the file in, and then hold it there for like 5+ seconds until the UI reacts so you can drop

Oh, it wasn’t just me!

Oh that’s neat! Thanks for the tip!

Hmmm I am on EndeavourOS and was just gonna wait a little longer, but now I am tempted to just push into the 555 beta. I mean, that’s what btrfs snapshots are for amirite?
