Steam is a buggy mess.
  • HiDPI scaling has been completely broken in Linux ever since the UI update and for some reason Valve is slow in fixing it.

  • Michael Tsai Blog - Is It Safe to Store Passwords and 2FA Codes Together?
  • It defeats the purpose in the scenario that your vault is stolen and decrypted. But it still protects you in the much more likely scenario that a data breach exposes your password somewhere else.

  • What do you like about your Linux Distro?
  • I tried Tumbleweed for a while but ended up going back to Fedora. Super polished while still fast moving.

  • Heat Pump switch-over temperature?
  • You can, but the lower you go (usually starting around 30F), performance degrades, with around 15-17F being the lower limit that you can run it in heating mode and still pull heat out of the outside air.

    Ideally your aux heat would only be needed on those more extreme days.

  • How do you guys back up your server?
  • btrfs send/receive to my NAS.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Just FYI “Software” in that agreement specifically refers to Red Hat branded software, so it isn’t quite as clear cut if you debrand it before redistributing it.

  • Dear Ryobi Haters
  • I’m just all in on the Ryobi battery walled garden. I swear they make everything that will take one.

  • Which Dynamic DNS Service are you using?
  • I should automate something like that too. I just have one A record pointing to my IP and all my subdomains CNAME’d to that so that if it ever changes, I just have to update that one record.

  • Which Dynamic DNS Service are you using?
  • My IP isn’t technically static but it hasn’t changed in the 3 years I’ve been with this ISP.

  • Lemmy apps on iOS
  • The latest test update today mentions it’s been in App Store review for at least 12 hours now. So hopefully soon.

  • “I Will Remember Apollo”
  • Decently surprised at how well it performs for a PWA.

  • Debating between Home Assistant OS or Docker for Raspberry Pi 4
  • I run the docker because it’s really easy to migrate to another machine if I needed. I just rsync the data and re-run the yaml on the new machine and I’m back up within seconds.

  • Coming from Mlem..
  • Memmy has the A+ patch notes.

  • Ubuntu Flavors Will Stop Using Flatpak
  • I'm okay technically with Snap, and I appreciate that it can do CLI programs as well which Flatpak can't (to my knowledge. My issue with it is that Canonical has dug their feet in on making their store the default and only package source for everyone. It's clear to me that they want to be the gatekeepers of software on Linux.

  • Angels 25-1 Rockies (Jun 24, 2023) Final Score - ESPN
  • I was convinced the Angels would still find a way to lose.

  • Which apps do you use for notes and reminders?
  • I use microsoft to-do. Syncs with Outlook and the windows app.

  • Is there any Linux tablet similar to a surface
  • Yes, the only difference really is installing their custom kernel afterwards to enable missing features like touchscreen support.

    It works pretty well, the only big thing still missing is camera support which will probably get solved soon.

  • [Community Update] - State of Affairs & Team Update - 2023-06-19
  • Thanks for the update. You all are doing fantastic work. Thank you!

  • Easily encrypt your home network services with lets-encrypt
  • I can't open the link right now cause it seems to have gotten the hug of death, but if they didn't mention it check out Caddy. It handles the certificates all automatically. All you have to do is set up the DNS record and then point Caddy at your internal service and it handles the rest.

  • Oracle Free Tier VPS Self Hosting Ideas
  • Man I would be so nervous to trust Oracle with my credit card though.
