  • how are my fellow peeps hosting your music collection these days?
  • I picked up a Denon DNP-730AE network audio player on ebay and I run Tiny-DLNA on my server where the music files and playlists are stored.

    Works great and sounds great.

  • I installed steamos on my legion go when I dock it the audio does not switch to rv automatically
  • I have a Steam deck and I have problems like this when I use the official dock on my main monitor.

    However, I have no problems with other monitors or a 3rd party dock with the same monitor.

    All that to say I would try new cables, a different dock, etc but thats just a guess.

  • How to screen record regions while showing the region boundary?
  • A while ago I did this by making a custom wallpaper with a box on it and set the capture region to the box.

  • Made a big(?) mistake with `mv /*/*/* ./`
  • If you ran this as a non-root user then you didn't move any system files you just made some copies. Delete the new copies and you should be fine.

  • Do you use brew pkg manager on Linux?
  • I use nix for extra packages on my linux desktop. I don"t like brew at all.

  • how to set up a remote managed node for mom
  • Yes its CLI based

  • how to set up a remote managed node for mom
  • You can do this easily with Tailscale or a similar wiregaurd vpn.

  • Smoke points
  • Rice Bran oil is my fave with a smoke point of 232 °C (450 °F) and it holds up a long time. I also use it for deep frying. Its not well known in the west and its really great.

  • Self hosted Teams alternative?
  • It is easier than you think.

    I never said how easy I think it is so what are you basing this response on?

  • Questions about selfhosting Git, and making some small scratch on the side.
  • I wouldn't even think about charging anyone for anything until you get it all setup and dialed in with backups, etc and are sure you know how to keep the service running.

  • Self hosted Teams alternative?
  • Then write a howto instead of asking here. That shouldn't take much.

  • My take on Alpine as a platform for selfhosting
  • How so? if I compromise a containerized app I get all the data that app has access to.

    From a security standpoint, each and every container running actually increases the potential attack surface.

  • My take on Alpine as a platform for selfhosting
  • Keeping containers up to date for security and bugfixes is just as important as OS packages.

  • Selfhosting on old MSI laptop
  • If you are going to store important data I would get a new drive. Either replace the internal or attach an external.

    Also make backups.

  • Here’s how I use LLMs to help me write code | Simon Willison
  • My experience is that use of an LLM is an amplifier to your output but generally at no better quality that you can produce on your own.

    The skilled developer who uses an LLM and checks its work will get a productivity boost without a loss in quality.

    The unskilled developer who copy/pastes code from stackover can get even more sloppy code into production by using an LLM.

  • Simple Bash Script To Always Disable Laptop Internal Monitor When Using AR Glasses
  • Yes totally a personalstyle choice. To me, using a semicolon to save a line looks more ugly ; then ;)

  • Plex staff leaving review on Play Store for Plex
  • My wife and I hardly ever watch TV outside the home. Certainly not with our phones. The only time is when we travel However she does use tailscale daily. That was my point, that tailscale is easy for non-tech people. Sorry if that is confusing.

  • Plex staff leaving review on Play Store for Plex
  • No shit. Is that not exactly what I have been saying over and over?

    My first comment in this thread says clearly that if you want to run a pirate tv service for other people then you'll want something other than Jellyfin.

  • Plex staff leaving review on Play Store for Plex
  • Where did I disagree with you?

    I've repeatedly pointed out that Jellyfin is great for a self-hosted home media server. If you use it as intended then its security is not an issue.

    Its not for running an internet tv service for others.

    I don't really understand why this causes some people to go off on a rant about how hard it is to explain a vpn to their grandmother. That's not something I've ever suggested.

  • Replaced Freezer Door

    Yesterday the handle to the freezer door broke off in my hand as I was openning it.

    I've had it for 10 years so it did laat a while.

    I was able to find and order the part online from a local vendor and to my surprise it arrived this afternoon (ordered last night around 19:00).

    I looked up the instructions and almost laughed at how simple it is. Installed in less than a minute.

    Very satisfying!

    Fixed a Couple of Door Knobs

    A couple of knobs in my house got loose ober the years. As in the screws are partially stripped and can't be properly tightened anymore.

    This morning I took the knobs off, stuffed wooden match sticks into the screw holes, and put the knobs back on.

    All fixed and now tight as a drum. Very satisfying!

    Big Screen and Large Setting

    I got the phone with the biggest screen I could find at a reasonable price, and turned up the size setting. Now I can use it without my reading glasses!

    A Very Good Plunger

    This plunger is very good for clearing out a clogged sink. Much better than any other plunger I've tried before.
