I’m now using Fedora CoreOS which can be deployed from config files. It’s really neat to be able to define everything the way you need it and just start up the VM with no further config necessary. I’m using podman to manage my services.

Glad to hear! :)

There are many different ways, but personally (and hopefully I don’t get crucified for saying this) I use Plex and Plexamp. Plexamp has got to be the best music app I’ve ever used. I even tied it into Last.fm to get recommendations for new music based on my listening.

You’d need to set up Plex media server to go this route: https://support.plex.tv/articles/200264746-quick-start-step-by-step-guides/

Personally I host via Docker.

It might be a little overkill if you don’t have other media, though, and it’s not fully open source.

Sorry, should have worded that differently. I was referring to the layoffs.

Maybe you could use the “Single page” firefox extension to save? You could also always print to pdf, this is built into firefox including mobile.

Videos suck for topics like this. I’m not about to watch a video that should just be an article.

Yep, a bastion is what you’re looking for. I use an rpi + a Dynamic DNS record in a script on the pi to automatically update firewall and ssh rules if my IP updates. Of course, you may need to do some configuration depending on their network setup.

Bazzite is where it’s at for gaming. Even more stable than PopOS and runs games very well out of the box.

I would never buy anything made by Meta, even if it was the best around.

My partner’s computer was running bazzite on a 2080 super and it gave her nothing but problems, especially with Wayland. Switching to AMD immediately fixed the Wayland issues, and also completely stabilized her system. It could be that it was a problematic GPU, I suppose. I admit that I haven’t personally used an Nvidia GPU since ~2020, however I did see the issues she had for sure.

Whatever you do, do not get an Nvidia GPU. I’ve only ever had problems with Nvidia drivers on Linux. Meanwhile, the AMD drivers (both the ones baked into the kernel and proprietary) work nearly flawlessly.

Intel’s most recent generation of CPUs were also frying themselves and Intel (at least last I checked) were not accepting RMAs from affected customers. Something to consider for your CPU at least.

I have this level1techs KVM which can drive my 5120x1440 @ 120hz monitor (without DSC) AND my 3840x2160 @ 240hz monitor (also without DSC). It’s $450, but Wendell and level1techs are great and it’s well worth the price.

I’m running Fedora on one host and Ubuntu on the other. With Windows, you can use DSC to drive huge resolutions at 240hz.

That’s neat! I had no idea. However:

I’m not overly familiar with the malware situation but I doubt it’s a serious concern

The only virus I’ve ever knowingly been infected with was from a copy of Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit for the PS2.

Both are great options, but KDE/plasma 6 is my pick.

I would rather click all of the download buttons I could find on ad-ridden sites before I let EA have kernel level access to my computer or deck.

I just set this up and it seems perfect for my usecase. Thanks!

Frigate is absolutely fantastic, especially Frigate+. I use all Reolink and it works great.

Possibly, it would probably depend on the extractor and business - I would hope that most businesses would catch that the fields weren’t filled out during extraction if extraction is something they normally do. I would expect it’s something that happens with pdf extraction and they’d have a human go in and check it in those cases. Of course, for humans that doesn’t matter, so if only humans are viewing it, I think you’d be good.
