I had similar requirements. I switched to Baikal, which has been happily running in a docker container ever since.

ptrckstr ,

I really enjoy alacritty, it provides you a terminal with nice defaults.

For a bit more base functionality, such as tabs or split panes, you could look into kitty or wezterm for example.

In the case of alacritty you’d need to look at other tools such as tmux or zellij for multi-terminal workspaces in one window.

Don’t think I’ve seen fish shell yet

You can use the f-droid store to find them. Its a play store alternative.

  • jq - parse json
  • Lazygit - UI for git
  • Lazydocker - ui for docker
  • pass - command line password store
  • zellij - tmux alternative
  • starship - terminal customization
  • tealdear - tldr in rust
  • rm-improved - rm, but moves stuff to /tmp

It is! Nu looks really cool, haven’t gotten around to migrating yet myself.

ptrckstr ,

You’re welcome! For tmux check out pain control, gives some alternative and maybe easier to remember bindings.

Replayed RDR2 on the PS5, most fun I’ve had with a game in a while.

The first time I felt like I spent most of my time in cutscenes and figuring out what to do. The second time I just plowed through the main story and enjoyed the ride.

Quit my corporate job for a small place with a mission to do good. Never going back to bigtech.

ptrckstr ,

Same here, really didn’t have the feeling I was doing much fruitful work at all. So much energy spent in meetings, and political nonsense.

It’s refreshing to just get to focus on getting things done.

Im using borgmatic, a wrapper around Borg that has some extra functionality.

Very happy with it, does exactly as advertised.

ptrckstr OP ,

You can sync easily to another device on the same network via ssh for example. You can also call a script automatically after the backup has been created and do your custom stuff in there.

I’m really liking borgmatic myself as a wrapper for Borg.

EDIT: I don’t have experience doing full OS backups. I only make backups of specific directories.

ptrckstr OP ,

It’s easy to set up and use, I’d recommend it.

ptrckstr OP ,

Wireguard-easy is plain old wireguard with with a nice web interface for management, that’s all.

ptrckstr ,

You have full control over what you block and whitelist. So if anything goes wrong, you can just troubleshoot it and whitelist if needed. If all fails, you can always (temporarily) turn off all blocking in pihole.

ptrckstr ,

They’re both good at what they do. Personally I switched from pihole to adguard, only because adguard let’s you use wildcard domains. This lets me point all of *.mydomain.com to one IP address.

And so it begins, the marketing world has got its claws in AI.

Yeah sorry, I wasn’t aware the AI wars already spread into marketing-land

Getting in a pickle over hardware

I’m moderately tech savvy, a little experience with most OS and comfortable with hardware. I’ve got some basic things working in Docker. I want to start self hosting my photo backup, Bitwarden, Jellyfish, Sonarr and Radarr, Pi hole, Home Assistant and replace Dropbox. But the more I dive into the hardware and setup the more...

ptrckstr ,

My solution for a power efficient setup was to split it up: all the services I use but don’t need all the time, like jellyfin for example, I host on my nas. I only turn that on when I need it.

The stuff that’s running all the time, like home assistant, addblocker, etc, I run on a raspberry pi.

Might not work for everyone, but I’m happy with it.

ptrckstr ,

I do exactly the same. I do not have a lot of data I feel a need to backup. I have a nightly job that zips and then encrypts my data, then rclones it to off site storage.

ptrckstr ,

alt+z for saving, I guess?

ptrckstr ,

From what I read it slow growing and pretty manageable as far as cancer is manageable of course. Hope he’ll make a quick recovery, and start growing that magnificent beard back.

ptrckstr ,

I have one 3B running adguard and a wireguard vpn server. Another 4B doing the same, plus kitchenowl and home assistant.

ptrckstr ,

I always use tldr for these things, super handy to have.

ptrckstr ,

You are absolutely right, this is way better. Thanks!

ptrckstr ,

How linux works is a nice read, tells a bit about what’s going on under the hood.

ptrckstr ,

If you spend a lot of time in the terminal zellij is a cool alternative to tmux.

ptrckstr ,

I enjoy the discoverable UI, and the way it handles windows and panes. Overall I think its a cool project with a lot of potential.

ptrckstr ,

I guess you mean how affordable? Wage vs costs? In my experience for most of western Europe: you can buy something if you’re well paid, have 2 years of salary in your bank account to bridge the mortgage gap, and a ton of luck.

ptrckstr ,

As a software developer I do not count sitting in meetings as productive work. Maybe 2-3h a day on average I’m left alone, in a state of flow and am really getting stuff done.
