fish. I think it has most things i want out of the box, so it should be simpler and snappier than my zsh setup. it’s just that zsh hasnt bothered me enough to try it yet.

also nushell, im interested in the idea of manipulating structured data instead of unstructured text

pingveno ,

Just take the dive into fish. It used to have a lot of problems with incompatibilities, but that’s been less of a problem lately.

I haven’t found nushell to be that great as a day-to-day shell simply because it integrates poorly with other Linux commands. But when it comes to data manipulation, it is simply amazing. I’m currently (slowly) working on a plugin to query LDAP. The ldapsearch command uses the LDIF format, which is hard to parse reliably. Producing nushell data structures that don’t need fragile parsing would be a boon.

Bcachefs, and bcachefs on root. Need something with filesystem level encryption instead of LUKS, and *ubuntu’s and derivatives have all abandoned ZFS on root installs now.

cizra ,

What’s your use case for FS-level encryption? LUKS has worked for me so far, I wonder where I’m missing out.

Bcachefs has filesystem encryption without LUKS? Did this have an audit? I use BTRFS and it is fine, but boot is unencrypted (using TPM would be cool)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bcachefs

Bcachefs is a copy-on-write (COW) file system for Linux-based operating systems.[3] Features include caching,[4] full file-system encryption using the ChaCha20 and Poly1305 algorithms,[5] native compression[4] via LZ4, gzip[6] and Zstandard,[7] snapshots,[4] CRC-32C and 64-bit checksumming.[3] It can span block devices, including in RAID configurations.[5]

I see it has an audit back in 2017, but I’ve yet to find anything newer. The finding was good, but suggested further audit be done.

I dont see the difference to BTRFS apart from encryption and maybe caching? I was always confused why people hype it so much.

Interesting, yes I wouldnt not use LUKS if the alternative is less known, not used by enterprise distros

Badabinski ,

The tiered storage stuff is pretty cool. You can say "I want this data on this disk, so if I get a cache miss from a faster disk/RAM it'll come from this other disk first."

I believe it also has some interesting ways of handling redundancy like erasure coding, and I thiiiink it does some kind of byte-level deduplication? I don't know if that's implemented or is even still planned, but I remember being quite excited for it. It was supposed to be dedupe without all of the hideous drawbacks that things like ZFS dedupe have.

EDIT: deduplication is absolutely not a thing yet. I don't know if it's still on the roadmap.

EDIT: Erasure coding is deffo implemented, however.

What are you using instead of emacs? I’m very happy with my doom emacs setup and it doesn’t feel slow at all imo

Nano. Everything except nano and its forks is weird and bloat.

moonlight ,

Have you tried neovim? More powerful than nano, but still super fast.

I’m not talking about performance but learning curve and unnecessary features. I don’t really want to learn any key bindings or a whole new ecosystem just for a text editor I use to edit a config once a month.

Also that comment was sarcastic.

Brickardo ,

the lack of XWayland support scares me

I’ve been using niri lately and couldn’t believe so many apps wouldn’t launch. I didn’t know that was the issue. I had been manually editing so many desktop entries to make them work…

LLM speech-to-text.

It appears continuous speech recognition is possible, but I only got as far as recognition of an audio file.

Still very cool!

undrwater ,

Thanks! While flatpaks are not the Gentoo way, I’ll give it a try.

Python. Been wanting to learn it for years but all mental capacity I have toward such stuff is drained by work. The whole situation is ironic.

Elixir, or Gleam/pure Erlang/some other Erlang VM language. I think Erlang is extremely cool and I've enjoyed the little time I spent with Elixir. I also have absolutely no use case to make proper use of it.

Niri looks really cool. I’ve used tiling WM before but scrolling is a unique take, perhaps more productive for some folks?

Nushell is a good one. I do data science for a living and it’d be nice to have the shell handle some small data transformations instead of writing a script in python. But all the syntax and behavior is very different than bash, so I’ve been afraid to start because of the learning curve.

Ceph. I have some Raspberry Pi’s that I’m going to set up a cluster with. Just haven’t gotten around to it yet. I half expect the performance to be relatively terrible, but maybe it won’t and I can try to build something on top of the cluster in a sort of hyper converged setup.

It’s completely overkill for a small home lab but that’s what makes it fun.

Anything beyond setting up a network-wide dns blocker on docker, so… crowdsec, fail2ban, some proxy-related stuff, zero trust tunnelers and so on.

Why? Because its overkill to my current setup and I don’t see myself using em for real other than for learning purposes, and thats it.

And before someone asks “Do you protect your server at all?”. Other than making some “hacky” stuff with my internet so all ports appear as closed whilst they actually aren’t? Eh, not really. Still, my server is about to reach a year of running nonstop 24/7 and it has never been hacked a single time since then, so naaaw.

cizra ,

How do you tell whether it’s been hacked? The hallmark of a good hack is invisibility, like modifying logs. Do you perhaps count SSH sessions in your router and verify it against client logs, or somesuch technique?
