pimeys@lemmy.nauk.ioto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Some inspiring quotes from our supreme leader485·2 years agoThe follow-up discussion was informative and the original commiter learned something. We all learned something when we read the discussion.
I stand (or sit to be honest) corrected.
R.I.P. Bram.
Also, vim just extended vi that invented modal editing.

Wake me up when they have video from the gameplay.
Abe gets the upvote.
pimeys@lemmy.nauk.ioto Privacy@lemmy.ml•Unblocking User Freedom: the right to use adblockers - FSFE8·2 years agoWhat about us who will never want to see any ads ever in our life? Can these companies force fed them to us and we kind of just accept that?
I’m coming from the old ages of internet where we didn’t have them. I’m fine with them, but I’m too old to use them comfortably.
It’s fine. Use them if you like, but I don’t really see the value in systems such as Discord where you pay money to have special emojis and so on…
pimeys@lemmy.nauk.ioto Open Source@lemmy.ml•PeerTube stress tests: resilience lies in your peers!1·2 years agoFor example the Hetzner servers are cheap and have been serving me well for many years. The big clouds are for companies with enough funding. If you need personal servers, the VPS providers give good value for money.
I’ve been digging into the settings of this printer and, sadly the only send it can do is as a fax… It’s the entry model, been serving us for years very nicely. It even connects to the internet, but misses features such as email, smb or ftp. For me this looks like something an open source firmware could fix. It has enough processing power to possibly run a lightweight Linux distribution, so installing one that would enable modern communication protocols doesn’t seem impossible.
This was it for me now, installed paperless-xng, set it up to scan my email folders, copied all random PDFs from my “organized” tax folder and scanned the rest.
Too bad I just happen to have that Brother printer/scanner without SMB or FTP support. So I need to go through the process of scanning on my computer first, then uploading.
Of course. My setup now is a Proxmox server + a NAS. What I’m planning to do is to install a service for this to Proxmox, then have the files synced over NFS to the NAS, which then backs them up every night to Backblaze. And of course I need to have the paper copies too, but to be able to search, tag and archive the documents is great when you need to remember a thing X that was mentioned in a paper I got back in 2014.
It just doesn’t feel right to have multiple postgres databases running, if every other service uses the one in the network. Having already monitoring, disk space and backups set…
Have you ever tasted Nordic potatoes when they’re freshly picked from the ground?
Installed it because of this thread to my homelab today. I never really managed my phone images in any way, never uploaded them anywhere. This was the first time. About 5 gigabytes of images and videos were synced to my NAS in a few minutes, now I can search them and all that. It’s a pretty cool setup, although the installation is a bit tricky if you don’t go to the path they give you. I run a Postgres server in Proxmox, and you have to install just the right version of pgvecto.rs for the system to work.
Browsing the issues I was able to figure out what went wrong, and after downgrading, no issues.
Their creator, Tove Jansson was living with her partner on this isolated island and growing potatoes. So makes sense.
Talking about Stephen King, Misery is a great movie.
Not uncommon.
