If he (Trump) wins the election on November 5, his billionaire supporter Musk will chair the new board. This is to implement a full financial and performance audit of the entire government and make recommendations for drastic reforms.

Your comment reminds me of that great tune by Pink Floyd.

Probably not what OP is looking for.

But I'm also happy with my Garmin Instinct. I use it disconnected from my phone, it does everything I need offline and stand-alone. To add tracks for navigation I just connect it to my linux laptop and drop the GPX file into the NewFiles (or whatever it's called) folder on the watch. I was surprised how well it works without official apps. The only thing I used the app for was to update the firmware when I bought the watch.

Also, fittrackee looks promising - thanks for the tip!

I would second that. I currently use nix besides Flatpaks for development environments but also find it somewhat overcomplicated. Looking forward to give toolbx a try.

I migrated my home- and webservers from Debian to FCOS a while ago and I'm very happy with how everything works.

Troubleshooting butane/ignition was a bit of a pain in the butt but worth it imo. I suggest just reading through the FCOS docs, they guided me well while setting everything up. I use podman on my webservers and docker on the homeserver (bc nextcloud aio is not fully podman compatible). I use the installer to build a pre-configured ISO that I can deploy where I want to.

Someone in the comments mentioned Flatcar, which I think looks compelling as well, since it's basically the same but more of a community effort.

I think this is a step in the right direction. Everyone can lose a portable device or it can get stolen, so protecting the potentially sensitive data is important.

I think what people are complaining about is not full-disk encryption itself, but the fact that people are not used to being responsible for their cryptographic keys.

I think we should educate people regarding this responsibility. We did it with regular keys we use to unlock our homes.

No radio expert here, but would'nt this at some point interfere with the transmissions if deployed at a large scale?

I do where possible, but it's not always available.

 

A couple of years ago, QR-bills were introduced in Switzerland as a means to make payments easier. My bank provides an app to scan the QR codes, which I prefer not to install. The only other option they provide to scan the codes is to use the webcam. Am I supposed to print my digital bills to have my webcam scan them again? Just let me upload a goddamn screenshot.

Does not answer your question, and someone already mentioned it in a thread, but don't forget zram when only 4GBs are available.

I went to a small (~30 people) festival dedicated to wood carving, because I was asked if a wanted to cook for everyone. Found it very inspiring to get an impression of that very specific sub culture.

A little overconfident as usual imo

Swiss lemming here. Switzerland already open-sourced multiple projects before, most notably the app to store your COVID test / vaccination status in. It was even officially available on F-Droid. I was very suprised at that point, and I'm happy to see that there are now efforts to make such behavior more default and less edge case, even when there are exceptions.

 

I've been looking into self-hosting LLMs or stable diffusion models using something like LocalAI and / or Ollama and LibreChat.

Some questions to get a nice discussion going:

  • Any of you have experience with this?
  • What are your motivations?
  • What are you using in terms of hardware?
  • Considerations regarding energy efficiency and associated costs?
  • What about renting a GPU? Privacy implications?
 
 

Just wanted to share my happiness.

AIO is the new (at least on my timeline) installation method of Nextcloud, where most of the heavy-lifting is taken care of automatically.

Open your mind!
