smileyhead , to selfhosted in Looking for a music solution

My music collection is still less than hundreds of GBs, so I give up doing my own streaming for now.

My setup is super simple, I just sync my Music folder by Syncthing app on all my devices. To download on my Android phone I use NewPipe to find a song (in three-dots menu there is section specific to songs without videos) and share it to the Seal app. On computer I use yt-dlp command, but there are nice apps on Flathub too. By this I do not need sophisticated automated system, only need to put file downloaded from YouTube, ripped from CD by abcd or pirated from torrent in Music folder and then it’s synced.

This is because I found streaming apps using D-Sub or Subsonic protocols very clunky and just bearable, while custom ones like for Jellyfin are not available or the best on all platforms.

And before locking check if the ROM boots at all! Locking will wipe data anyway, so it’s better safe than sorry as a button to allow unlocking is in the system settings.

  • We create WWW, where everyone can freely put things on and discuss anything.
  • Oh no! But what about the profits?
  • We create this summarize tool to quickly get knowleadge without always needing to peek deeper into text.
  • Oh no! But what about the profits?
smileyhead , to technology in Why It Was Almost Impossible to Make the Blue LED

I don’t get the dislikes, it is a great question. But as someone above, I think the cost was to dicover a way to make blue LED at all and make it scalable, then it’s just like any other product.

smileyhead , to technology in Just 137 crypto miners use 2.3% of total U.S. power — government now requiring commercial miners to report energy consumption

You are talking like if this was creating any real value. Replace “mining crypto” with “wasting” in these.

smileyhead , to technology in Because AI and Crypto use so much electricity, what if a law was made that they had to power it with green energy?

And spend it on calculating useless hashes instead of reducing coal mining?

smileyhead , to linux in New to Linux? Ubuntu Isn’t Your Only Option

It’s Arch Linux with preinstalled stuff right from the install. I won’t recommend it, you still would need a good amount of knowleadge first to drive an Arch based system.

Imagine a Windows modification with some gaming tools preinstalled and scripts for one-click install things that usuallu take five clicks. Great, but only to speed up things you do often.

smileyhead , to technology in Because AI and Crypto use so much electricity, what if a law was made that they had to power it with green energy?

Green energy is still not free energy.

Every amout of green energy a crypto miner uses is less green energy for everything else. You take 3% (country consumption) of capacity from the green grid, you must up at least 3% the production in existing coal plants.

Then it’s more interesting than I thought.

Oh shit, I wanted to steal a car but now because of this ban it will be illegal, how bad.

smileyhead , to technology in Mozilla CEO quits, org pivots, but what about Firefox?

Linux is currently mostly made by big corpo, but they are held by community and Linus’es checks.

Unfortunetly for browsers most of the giants focused on Chromium, which Google has final say over. Also Linux is OS, where browser should be simple and websites should work even if some one API is not supported. In Chromium’s world web"apps" are won’t be compatible with anything non-Chromium. Any browser would be required to support 99+% of Chromium features or not work.

SSH can do just that, example:
