Rustdesk for me is fantastic, it’s completely replaced everything else. Except for 1 small hitch, that I cannot seem to solve, and I don’t know if it is Rustdesk’s fault, but it’s the only service I am hosting that has this problem. LAN can connect to LAN, and external can connect to external. However local machines cannot communicate with devices outside my network, and devices outside my network cannot communicate with LAN devices…

Fixed it by using VPN on my machine, so I’m no longer within my own network, and using… Another program for when I need to connect to my local machines outside of my own network.

Syncthing is not a backup tool. Please don’t use it for backups. the devs have addressed this so many times.

Before you lose your data, please try deleting a single file and see what happens.

Yeah the warnings are there for a reason, it is very new. However, only had to change my docker compose once, and that’s it. Otherwise everything has worked flawlessly.

The warning serves to make you aware that it is beta software, and to have 3-2-1 backup solution.

If you look at what data they handed over you’ll realize this is a positive thing. You have verifiable proof that the contents of your mails is private, and you’re calling it a negative thing that they have your IP address??

Why is everything in consumer / American life so fucking shitty now - and companies literally just say 'oh bc profit margins' and we're now expected to swallow that and sympathize?

like I went to taco bell and they didn’t even have napkins out. they had the other stuff just no napkins, I assume because some fucking ghoul noticed people liked taking them for their cars so now we just don’t get napkins! so they can save $100 per quarter rather than provide the barest minimum quality of life features.

Stealing from Amazon will never not be ok.

I’d love to know how to deal with this. Currently sitting on 12TB used. Decent upload but cloud storage for that much is expensive. I have 5 8TB HDDs, 2 of which act as redundancy in RAID6 config.

One thought I had was convince a friend to setup the same, and dedicate half of each other’s storage as redundancy for the other person.

Thrive. Essentially spore 2. Been in development 10 years and is entirely free to play. If you want to support them it’s €4 on steam.

Elon Musk gives X employees one year to replace your bank - ‘You won’t need a bank account... it would blow my mind if we don’t have that rolled out by the end of next year.’ (www.theverge.com)

“If it involves money. It’ll be on our platform. Money or securities or whatever. So, it’s not just like send $20 to my friend. I’m talking about, like, you won’t need a bank account.”...

Worst part is it’s not half-baked… It’s been baking since before 2k…

PracticalParrot ,

Agreed, I use bottles and steam only. Minimal issues.

You are being unfair. I have been searching for 6+ months for a position in IT, had 2 companies that paid $40k+/yr, 1st one didn’t pan out, 2nd one is in progress. Countless $15-20k/yr offers though. I am in Europe looking for remote only positions in any form of tech support, python programming but preferrably linux server/desktop support. I don’t use AI, all applications are written by me. My CV is 2 pages, modern theme. 10 years experience.

PracticalParrot ,

Thank you! I hope so too.

I am based in Romania but looking for WFH jobs globally, so I wouldn’t think the specific job markets would make much difference.

I use a new username for every account I sign up to.

Pwrsonally I don’t use Brave due to it being chromium, outside of that itis a good browser. If they were a firefox fork I would absolutely use them.

PracticalParrot ,

Yepp, I started just using vanilla chromium though instead, as that offers a barebones option to guarantee I don’t need to mess around to test something works.

PracticalParrot ,

This is honestly why I pirate. I don’t agree with the pricing model and 9/10 I find out I didn’t enjoy the game after all. I do buy games that are reasonably priced and I did enjoy, the latest one being ember knights. Fantastic.

PracticalParrot ,

I did on my Nix, there was a package in Nixpkgs that was outdated, so I had the opportunity to use distrobox for that, at leqst temporarily until they update the package.

PracticalParrot ,

Available for anyone to download… only available for Mac/iOS… Windows waitlist… No linux mention…

Okidoki.

PracticalParrot ,

Is there a big reason to use apt-get instead of just apt? I don’t think I’ve ever used apt-get in years, always using just apt.

PracticalParrot ,

Nice to see these images have made it over to lemmy :)

That’s a real shame. I enjoy his comics. Thanks for sharing

I keep wanting to try out vanillaOS and everytime I liveboot it, I immediately regret my decision. I cannot stand Gnome.
I love KDE, I love it for how versatile, intuitive and customizable it is.
Bot to mention, I rarely experience any bugs. It just works.

My problem with Actual Budget is it’s only a singular currency. I deal with Euro, Dollar, Romanian Lei, British Pound. Having to manually convert each to Dollar, and then have a bit of discrepancy due to price fluctuations made it a no go for me. Have not found a good self hosted finance tracker that works for me yet.
At the moment I am unfortunately using a proprietary one called Cubux.
