  • What's your "Oh fuck, that actually worked!" Linux moment that made you feel like a wizard?

    Jump

  • How did you do it? Did you run a live distro on the new laptop to receive and overwrite the SSD ?

  • He addresses it in another video, but there isn’t a single rights holder. There are 3 that each own different parts of the game. He tried contacting them but none responded.

  • Wifi Portal

    Jump

  • Or on their phone.

    Most of the time it’s used to help guests get onto the wifi quickly.

    I also find it handy to get the wifi password when on-boarding smart devices or whatever new gadget.

  • How do you document your Homelab?

    Jump

  • This really is the way.

    It goes beyond documentation too - it allows me to migrate to new hosts or to easily automate upgrading the OS release version.

    I have a docusaurus site for my homeland and I have ansible and terraform generate files for the docs so I don’t have to record anything. Some of the stuff I note down:

    • DNS leases
    • General infra diagrams
    • IP info
    • Host info
  • Open Source @lemmy.ml

  • Sharing Jellyfin

    Jump

  • Tailscale has an AppleTV app, just download it and add it to your talent.

    Jump

  • You can install it right on the TV, they have a first party app.

  • AppleTV + Tailscale in and it’s been a flawless experience.

  • [Weekly thread] How is everyone doing with their home improvements?

    Jump

  • Great! I just tiled a part of my basement (first time doing tiles) because we replace the hot water tank with a tankless.

    Since it mounts on the wall I had to remove the old cracked tiles under the tank and put in new ones. It was pretty straightforward but I found wiping the grout to be really messy and not as easy as it seemed in the videos. Using the tile saw as also daunting but I got it done.

  • Backing up IaC

    Jump

  • My parents have a NAS! Maybe I set up Tailscale and send it over there…

    Although they live 3 streets away from me so I worry it’s not remote enough in case of flood etc

  • Backing up IaC

    Jump

  • Honestly, I just run it from the CLI myself.

    I’ve wasted too much time fighting with CI and automation that when I migrated to forjego I didn’t bother to put it in again.

  • Backing up IaC

    Jump

  • You pretty much got it. I need a quick way to restore the repo and ideally have git do a self backup. Seems like a cheap VPS may be the way to go

  • [Question] Asking for recommendations regarding cold database storage

    Jump

  • You could try something S3 based, and do backups by date?

    For example, export a subset of the DB and name it accordingly (ie. 2025-04-to-2025-01.tar).

    If you do that there are a lot of pretty cheap S3 providers (like Wasabi).

    S3 interfaces nicely with RCLONE so you can move providers etc and pull it really quickly.

    As an aside, when I looked into something like this the thing that made me hesitate was the time and cost for retrieval from cold storage (like amazon glacier) outweighed the savings.

    If u have an old desktop with some drives sleds in it that’s more than enough.

  • Synology seems to be the go to brand for most folks. They have a solid OS and take their security pretty seriously.

    If you want to have more fun you could grab a small x86 NAS (ugreen/terramaster) and flash it with truenas.

    Wrecked ceiling wall, how to fix

  • wip jellyfin music client (iOS + watch + tv)

    Jump

  • I only listen to podcasts so you got the big ones: playback speed and remembering position.

  • wip jellyfin music client (iOS + watch + tv)

    Jump

  • Do you intend to support podcasts and audiobooks? Specifically, remembering it stopped playing? If so I will totally drop Finamp for this

  • I legitimately want to run Linux as my desktop OS, please tell me how to meet my requirements.

    Jump

  • Agreed. You need to be willing to migrate to FOSS software or else “switching to Linux” will be a total failure.

  • I legitimately want to run Linux as my desktop OS, please tell me how to meet my requirements.

    Jump

  • I think the key is you need to find FOSS software that works for you before migrating your OS. Most FOSS software will run on windows and sometimes MAC.

    1-2 and 3 will be hard. You can find many tools that do something similar but it won’t be perfect. There are a few different music managers, and for office libreoffice is the go to.

    1. try digikam, it supports all OSes

    2. googling “Fujitsu snap scanner Linux” yielded a few blog articles on the matter. Seems it should be supported.
