Rustdesk works great, and it’s self hosted.

huskypenguin ,

How does it have a large attack surface? I thought being immutable reduced the surface.

huskypenguin ,

Try bazzite.

huskypenguin ,

My heart is always with Debian, but Bazzite is a surprisingly useable immutable OS. I would suggest using it for your core suite then use Distrobox w/ Debian for any apps outside of that. It’s so snappy!

huskypenguin ,

It’s not that bad. I run Davinci resolve in a Distrobox.

Edit: and when I say it’s not that bad it’s basically flawless

huskypenguin ,

Ah yes. I’m on X11 due to Nvidia and some remote applications for the foreseeable future.

huskypenguin ,

Use home assistant.

huskypenguin ,

If this could connect to Oogabooga for LLM control, that would be pretty cool.

huskypenguin ,

I feel like every time I blink there’s a better and easier way to do things.

huskypenguin ,

They apologized and admitted that it was a dumb thing to do.

huskypenguin ,

I love it, it works. Running a server is super easy and the speed is quite nice for a free piece of software.

huskypenguin ,

I am, and I’m using Neth Server. I use it only for an AD, TrueNAS for file storage and a few VMs, portainer for applications. It was for practice, but Neth makes it so easy, why not? And it can help with some LDAP applications (but I haven’t set them up yet)

huskypenguin ,

Not the original commenter, but I don’t understand how that would increase your attack surface. The AD is inside the network, and if an attacker is already in, you’re compromised. There might be way to refrence a DNS server with a windows server, but then you’re running windows and your life is now much more difficult.

As per DNS, the AD server must be the DNS provider. If you run something like nethserver in a VM you can use it as a dns & ad server.

The domain thing, the AD server is the authorative for its domain. So if you set it as top level, like myhouse.c()m, it will refrence all dns requests to itself, and any subdomains will not appear. The reccomended way to get around this is to use a subdomain, like ad.myhouse.c()m. Or, maybe you have a domain name to burn and you just want to use that?

huskypenguin ,

Samba v4 has been able to be a domain server forever and it’s free. You can also use Synology if you want it off the shelf.

huskypenguin ,

It may have been me both times. I went down a deep AD hole recently, and was trying to find an easy open source way to do it.

My advice is to put whatever you choose into a vm and snapshot it right before you configure the AD. I think I reconfigured mine 8 times before I was happy.

huskypenguin ,

Same, but I use double click. Send like single click is a lot of mouse dragging.

huskypenguin ,

They’re all text config driven. Check out archcraft, dude sells arch presets for a lot of rolling managers and you can donate 25 cents to get one.

Possible to have different desktop folders for different workspaces?

I am a “messy desk” person and like to have a big open visual space for all the pseudo-temporary files belonging to whatever project I’m working on at a given time. It would be nice to have a workspace specifically dedicated for “work” and still be able to create a fresh one when needed, without having to “put all...

huskypenguin ,

Hey just a heads up. Installing gnome and kde side by side can result in a lot of weirdness like fonts messing up. It would be better to save your home partition and move to kubuntu or another kde specific platform.

huskypenguin ,

Because people won’t pay for it. We are in the minority.

huskypenguin ,

It still clutters on OS upgrades.

huskypenguin ,

Hmmm, maybe I need to dig in settings. When Apple Arcade became a thing I found new apps on the Home Screen. I still think it’s the only streaming box outside of a shield that is appropriately powered amass doesn’t serve ads. And unlike the shield, Apple tv has a clear future.

Scientists Discover Alarming Evidence Global Warning Is Accelerating (www.sciencealert.com)

Since the 1960s each decade has been hotter than the last, exactly as predicted by many climate models. But there has been some debate in the science community about whether or not this rate of warming is accelerating, particularly in light of last year’s climate chaos....

What's your experiences with Debian and Rocky as a homeserver OS? (external-content.duckduckgo.com)

Hello there lemmings! Finally I have taken up the courage to buy a low power mini PC to be my first homeserver (Ryzen 5500U, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD, already have 6TB external HDD tho). I have basically no tangible experience with Debian or Fedora-based system, since my daily drivers are Arch-based (although I’m planning to switch...

huskypenguin ,

We’re here for the stories not for the healthcare, apparently.

huskypenguin ,

It’s clunky to set up but solid performance. Sunshine is just a bit too alpha at the moment. On our Ubuntu rig it will crash it if left on.

Just started using Reemo, I think it’s a better work tool and great for people that aren’t tech centric.

Is Ubuntu deserving the hate? (lemmy.ml)

Long story short, I have a desktop with Fedora, lovely, fast, sleek and surprisingly reliable for a near rolling distro (it failed me only once back around Fedora 34 or something where it nuked Grub). Tried to install on a 2012 i7 MacBook Air… what a slog!!! Surprisingly Ubuntu runs very smooth on it. I have been bothering all...

huskypenguin ,

I was an Ubuntu person for a long time, and when reading criticism about the inability to upgrade versions, I realized that had been my entire experience. I decided to give a rolling release a chance, and it’s been amazing.

I use arch(installer)btw. 🐧 AURs are pretty ingenuous, which is just pulling and compiling a git. Maybe a little less secure, but look at what happened to the snap store this year.

If you want to try a rolling release but didn’t want to use Arch, there’s always Fedora, & OpenSuSE Tumbleweed.

Outside of that, for non Ubuntu distros you could do OpenSuSE regular, or for true LTS use Rocky. Or take the red pill and go with Hannah Montana’s Linux.

huskypenguin ,

Are you using Swiftfin?

huskypenguin ,

Interesting. I’ve actually had the opposite experience. Jellyfin has been smoother and more reliable than Plex. Maybe it’s worth checking out Emby, I think it solves the fast client switching (but I’m not entirely positive). I’ve just taken to running both. When I hit Plex snags I pop over to Jellyfin.

The easiest step into this world is KDE. It has a store for users to share global themes, color themes, even sddm animations.

You can use kwin rules to send certain apps to certain desktops, start shaded, all sorts of fun stuff.

And then you can throw a tiling manager on top of that. If you want to use the control panel, you can install bismuth. If you’re comfortable editing text files, awesome or i3 (but I have yet to go that far).

If you really want to go for it, hyperland looks incredible, but it is a lot of up front work.

huskypenguin ,

Not to be pedantic but KDE is a desktop environment not a an OS. Perhaps you were thinking of KDE Neon?

huskypenguin ,

How does it compete with chat gpt? It is chat gpt.

huskypenguin ,

I picked up a used HP Envy x360 with the ryzen processor and it’s been pretty good. The stylus is t a full digitizer like a Wacom, but it’s good enough for sketching

"Linux Desktop: A Collective Delusion" - an unhinged rant (tadeubento.com)

Linux has made significant strides, and in 2023, it’s better than ever. However, there are still individuals perpetuating a delusion: that desktop Linux is as user-friendly and productive as its mainstream counterparts. After a few discussions on Lemmy, I believe it’s important to provide a clear review of where Linux falls...

huskypenguin ,

What if you wanted to use 1pass or LastPass? They work flawlessly as browser extensions.

huskypenguin ,

Steam deck has entered the chat.

huskypenguin ,

You have to edit the registry at install to get Win11 to install on most machines.

huskypenguin ,

Photoshop Web is closest

huskypenguin ,

I wish they would just release a docker so I could install it myself…

huskypenguin ,

I think the steam deck is becoming the first computing device for a lot of young people that had iPads, and it’s going to be a desktop computer for a lot of aspiring and broke college students. It’s definitely a gateway device.

KDE Neon / Pipewire issues when gaming

Hi guys! So I seem to have audio issues. Audio will mute for like 5 seconds every 20 seconds or so. It’s very annoying, as it can make you miss whole parts of dialog. It only happens on linux, and only on gaming, so I guess it means the amp/surround system is ok. I use the TV HDMI output for audio, as it gets redirected to the...

huskypenguin ,

In another comment you said the head phones jack on the monitor is busted. It might be that the system thinks headphones are plugged in. Just a random guess, I don’t even know if Linux can do that (windows can).
