cyberpunk007,

Is this like a souls clone?

cyberpunk007,

I don’t need a souls clone to steal my souls. So many hours I put into these damn time sinks.

cyberpunk007,

I love how people just come up with this shit with their knowledge of their local area. Any train here requires driving to, and does not come and go frequently, and takes longer. Our infra is terrible.

On the flip side, some places have awesome infra and I wish I had that. I’d prefer to pedal bike if I could. But where I’m at you’re very likely to be killed without bike lanes or sidewalks, and it would take hours to get anywhere important - IE work.

cyberpunk007,

Literally used it last weekend. If you’re in an open space it works really well.

cyberpunk007,

I use it cause I travel across a border where the coverage sucks. I also travel to other remote areas where I sometimes get cno coverage. I love it.

cyberpunk007,

How do you know this?

cyberpunk007, (edited )

Ah nice. Well a single 1080p steam on Netflix consumes about 4Mbps. VoIP calls about 1.7Mbps.

It’ll do but yeah it’s not great. It’s definitely enough for surfing the net.

I wonder how big these “cell zones” are.

Produce could make a difference here too. I frequently travel so having one plan that works everywhere would be awesome. Hopefully the price is right. Starlink internet itself is pricey.

cyberpunk007,

Be kind

cyberpunk007,

Ah yes. When your operating and spyware are the same thing.

cyberpunk007,

Where’s the Nazi shit? I just went there and didn’t see any of that

cyberpunk007,

Instead of old, they should change the url to good.reddit.com

cyberpunk007,

I have an abundance of bees and other insects, and I mow my lawn. But I have gardens.

cyberpunk007,

Your comments are unreal. I think you just hate men.

cyberpunk007,

I gave up on this a long time ago. Phone screens are big enough, or a laptop if you own one, and ear buds. Done.

cyberpunk007,

I disagree. Our lives are all subscriptions now and you own nothing. I will avoid any subscription if possible

cyberpunk007,

This user to be Ubuntu. I think I see probably something like SteamOS maybe being a standard in the future since many who stay on windows are doing so for gaming reasons, and that’s the best prebuilt distribution for gaming.

cyberpunk007,

Not feasible for most, but maybe time to switch software stack.

cyberpunk007,

Fallout 2, halo 1, fable, all I can think of at the moment.

cyberpunk007,

It’s been my default for years. Usually I find what I want. When I don’t, I go back to the search box and put !g at the front, which sends the search to google.

cyberpunk007,

Can only play 2 players at once though right?

Introducing Bitmagnet: A self-hosted BitTorrent indexer, DHT crawler, content classifier and torrent search engine with web UI, GraphQL API and Servarr stack integration (bitmagnet.io)

I’m excited to announce the first alpha preview of this project that I’ve been working on for the past 4 months. I’m initially posting about this in a few small communities, and hoping to get some input from early adopters and beta testers....

cyberpunk007,

Out of curiosity, why not? I’ve come around.

cyberpunk007,

Used to be like you, then I moved from truenas core to scale where it’s now Linux and docker instead of freebsd and iocage jails.

So docker has this concept of persistent volumes. You configure all your settings in the initial setup command (docker compose) and define persistent volumes. This way you don’t lose your data.

Here’s an example, Plex. I run Plex in docker now. So my config directory is defined as a persistent volume. If I need to update Plex, or rebuild it or whatever, the container just updates and has all the data I need via the persistent volume. If the install is messed up or whatever I just get a newer image and run the docker compose and it fires up and mounts the persistent volume and off I go.

Basically it takes away the burden of having to figure out the OS configuration. Makes backups easier - and smaller. And the things are spun up, installed, and usable in seconds.

cyberpunk007,

On truenas scale though it’s just tiles in a web browser, it’s super easy. And since it runs on ZFS backups are easier too. Just click your way through periodic volume snapshot tasks.

Definitely a bit of a learning curve but it’s a sleek setup once you understand.

cyberpunk007,

Your data footprint would be less. Maintenance is a breeze. If you update your image and it breaks, just roll it back. Less consumption of resources. No need to divide your storage and ram for VMs. There are millions of docker images so you can start something new in seconds. And the learning curve isn’t too bad if you’re on truenas scale. Truenas core is a NAS operating system built on freebsd (Unix), and truenas scale is built on Linux. Both use ZFS for the underlying storage.

cyberpunk007,

Not trying to sell you on it, you do what works best for you. Truenas scale is an operating system built on Debian. There will be no packages for it. It’s hard to explain until you start using it. I came from VMs on truenas core for many years and it was annoying to migrate to docker but after I used it for a while I liked it a lot more. It’s hard to explain without just using it, so if you’re not into playing around and what you have works great, then great. I’ve been working with jails and VMs and containers for well over 15 years since I work in IT so I’ve played with big and small systems. There are definitely some annoyances when it comes to the VM approach.

cyberpunk007,

Mandatory blood sample to register.

cyberpunk007,

When you’re browsing a website and the text and buttons are so large you can see them from the neighbors house.

I use a bigger screen and higher resolution to fit more, not fit the same…

cyberpunk007,

When I can’t middle mouse it right click to open a button in a new tab. It makes it harder to get back to the exact same spot, loaded how it was, to repeat the same task for the next button.

cyberpunk007,

Maybe I’m confused on the KDE connect part, but you can install KDE connect on windows.

Dex is cool, wanted this too, I’d probably make good use of this type of capability on the steam deck instead though.

cyberpunk007,

See am I crazy or didn’t google say this was a thing coming ages ago?

Also disabling apps. Am I also crazy or did that come and go and only ever work on certain ones? I really do sometimes find it useful to disable apps instead of uninstalling them. When you uninstall you need to configure them all over again when you do the reinstall.

cyberpunk007,

Same. I even tried it and it’s really cool, and at that price point I would… but meta. I even heard at one point they forced you to log in with your facebook account to use it. Wtf? I don’t even have one. So basically I’ll wait for the valve index 2.0. VR is not mature yet and they all have quirks and trade offs.

cyberpunk007,

I guess I should be working on breaking the DRM and backing up my audible books on a regular basis…

cyberpunk007,

You have to have money to make money. It’s just that first step that’s the problem…

cyberpunk007,

True but dependency hell and maintaining updates for that is a headache I wish not to deal with.

cyberpunk007,

This is what I do. Truenas scale and backup to ext hard drive and B2

cyberpunk007,

Incredible the downvotes you get. It’s true. Windows literally spies on you

cyberpunk007,

This is probably it haha

cyberpunk007,

Try edge. Are you sure? It’s better. Why are you going to google? Did you know bing is better?

And so on and so on. It’s gross.

cyberpunk007,

😲

cyberpunk007,

Add it to the list of the other stuff you probably bloc k

cyberpunk007,

I get what you’re trying to say, but at the same time the corps say “fuck our customers”. You’re a number. They don’t want you to have anything and they just want your money. Look at Amazon pulling purchased books from kindle users. And they’re not the only ones.

cyberpunk007,

I can echo this statement for a couple people I know that found this to work for them too

cyberpunk007,

This is weird to me. What’s the reasoning for that? We’re people selling crap on there or something? If it’s just discussion I really do not see the problem.

cyberpunk007,

Gee if only I knew a place where I could learn more about this.

/s

cyberpunk007,

Johnny Silverhand? Is that you?

cyberpunk007,

Controversial. I’ve owned many of the Nexus line and I own the pixel 6 pro. I also rocked an s7 for a while. Samsung definitely does a great job with their UI but I also would like to point out that these issues with pixel are not as common as news points them out to be. I know several people with pixel phones that experienced none of these issues.

My advice is to just prioritize what you want out of your phone. The fact I will always get android updates first and probably the longest os support compared to Samsung and the ease in which I can flash custom ROMs of I wanted to is why I stick with pixel. Samsung definitely had extras I wish Google would bake into stock android though.

cyberpunk007,

Yeah, I also don’t like how every vendor is pushing you to their ecosystem. Smart things which you can’t get rid of, for example. At least that existed on the s7 😂.

It would be good if your phone gave you the option. Everything is so fragmented in tech

cyberpunk007,

I read it as OAY SEX. I kept asking myself… the hell is an oay?
