I can see some minor benefits - I use it for the odd bit of mundane writing and some of the image creation stuff is interesting, and I knew that a lot of people use it for coding etc - but mostly it seems to be about making more cash for corporations and stuffing the internet with bots and fake content. Am I missing something...
I hadn’t considered this. It’s interesting stuff. My old doctor used to just Google stuff in front of me and then repeat the info as if I hadn’t been there for the last five minutes.
Currently running NixOS with Debian and Arch containers in distrobox. Certain apps in NixOS (e.g. Calibre) don’t respect the scaling in Gnome, but work perfectly via distrobox. Btw, there’s a nice GUI for distrobox called Boxbuddy that works really well.
I’m using Immich in Nixos. It’s simple. Takes about 10 mins. You need to set Docker up in your configuration.nix then set Immich up using docker compose. Let me know if you need a hand getting it going.
If private companies were more efficient than the public sector then you’d want to privatize the armed forces. The fact that no serious person argues for this tells you all you need to know.
Yeah there are very good reasons why it’s a stupid idea. It’s equally stupid to privatize areas of strategic economic importance, such as energy, transport, core infrastructure etc. Which happens all the time. Arguably the army is the most important service for a state. If the private sector was innately more efficient you’d have thought the neolibs would be queueing up to flog it off.
I’m running OwnCloud in Docker and have setup NGinx as a reverse proxy. This works perfectly for all my other services, but OwnCloud keeps throwing the untrusted domain error. I’ve edited the config.php file to add my exampledemain.com but no dice. Does anybody know what I need to do?
Yeah but the report says the vulnerability is related to graphapi which doesn’t seem to be a part of all OwnCloud installations. I can’t see it on mine either.
That is very true. I’ve got Tailscale setup and I can get into it through that. Unfortunately I can’t put Tailscale on my work machines, so having access via the web would be useful.

What lesser known free and open source software do you use daily to improve your life?
For me it is the note taking/PKMS tool SilverBullet.
Are there any genuine benefits to AI?

Windows dropped new feature called "sudo" (feddit.de)
I don’t think i need to explain how it works, should i ?
Why has nobody ever heard of Distrobox? Let me tell you why everyone should take a look at it!
TL;DR: It’s basically a WSL for Linux. Linux subsystem for Linux if you will....

It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware. (mastodon.world)

What are you using as a Google photos alternative? Currently I’m using Nextcloud but I’m thinking of switching to a more dedicated solution....
