untilyouarrived,

I’ve been using the developer beta of WatchOS 10 and it’s been fine.

untilyouarrived,

I use NGINX because it’s what I’m familiar with. If I was starting again, I would probably use Caddy.

untilyouarrived,

Using ‘hours of use’ as the metric, it would be Plex. The ones I use every day are Libreddit, TT-RSS, Huginn and Reddit-RSS - and my own journalling app and pocket clone.

[Resolved] Trying to set up my own Lemmy server, but I think I'm in over my head

I tried for several days to host lemmy 0.17.4 using the docker install instructions, but I was less than successful. The instructions seemed to be riddled with mistakes and and the docker-compose.yml file had some errors. I eventually mostly got it up and running, but I could never access the site through the nginx container. I...

untilyouarrived,

You need to change the line starting in your docker compose file and make sure it reflects where the nginx internal config file actually is.

Mine is in the same folder as the compose file, so it's ./nginx_internal.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

untilyouarrived,

I'm not really sure why I'm paying OpenAI this point.

What is your favourite book?

untilyouarrived,

Such a fantastic book. It's one of the few that I will read again and again.

untilyouarrived,

The screen on the scribe is beautiful. The lighting is uniform and the text is crisp. PDFs look amazing. It's streets ahead of the Boox Note Air line in that respect.

Note-taking has got better since release, but it's still rudimentary compared to dedicated note-taking devices. I'm sure that will continue to improve over time, but I'm just not sure that I want Amazon to have my notes.

Also, I discovered that I really don't like writing on an artificially lit screen. It doesn't feel as natural as writing on my RM2, which is closer to paper in feel and appearance.

untilyouarrived,

You can turn it off (which, admittedly, resolves my issue) but the lighting layer creates a gap between the writing surface and the screen. It's only slight, but is perceptible.

It's a great device though.

untilyouarrived,

Same. Like, I'm relatively confident in the systems I have running, but not so confident that I'd trust them with my most important passwords.

untilyouarrived,

Hi! Count me in as a beta tester. I'm willing to suffer!

untilyouarrived,

East Yorkshire.

untilyouarrived,

Fair!

untilyouarrived,

The Detectorists is incredible. It's my go to comfort watch.

untilyouarrived,

All true. And RPIs aren't even cheap anymore. It's much more cost effective to buy a refurbished lease PC and get the extra processing power, expandability & reliable storage. I run everything on a HP elitedesk and it didn't cost much over £150.

untilyouarrived,

Out of interest, did you get a reasonable scrap price?

I was talking to someone the other day that said they got nearly £1k for theirs. Last time I scrapped anything (years and years ago) I had to pay them to take it away because scrap prices were so low.

untilyouarrived,

I'm relatively competent installing server software, but the Lemmy instructions completely flummoxed me. Their docker instructions just don't work.

I ended up using the ansible docker scripts and filling out the blanks because I'm unfamiliar with ansible.

If this is as good as it sounds, you're doing everyone a massive favour.

Is there a good guide on how to access services from outside my network?

I have Plex, Radarr, Sonarr, Overseerr etc running in Docker containers, but have never found a good guide on how to access these (safely) from outside. I resort to connecting to a server running VNC. I've tried nginx but didn't understand it, also tried Cloudflare (ditto). Is there a good, easy to understand guide on how to do...

untilyouarrived,

PiVPN is great. Works on just as well on a standard server with Ubuntu.

untilyouarrived,

I very slightly preferred the RM2 to the Supernote, mainly for the design of the device - but Supernote has the edge on available tools, and in engagement with the community. Both are great though.

I considered buying another Supernote, but I can't justify the cost.

untilyouarrived,

Found it in a tourist shop in Skipton.

untilyouarrived,

Wallabag is what most people recommend, but I couldn't get on with it.

untilyouarrived,

I've never understood why we don't build more houses from timber.

Project Hail Mary

As a 50+ year old woman with little to no interest in Science Fiction, I would always just roll my eyes when I would come across yet another Reddit post about this book. And then, I broke down and got the audiobook since it was on sale. And, wow, I was soooo wrong. I really enjoyed it and my eyes were “leaking” so much at...

untilyouarrived,

I am one of the few that didn't get this book at all. I thought The Martian was fantastic, but was annoyed at myself for persevering to finish this one.

untilyouarrived,

I read an amusing anecdote about him this morning:

When he was awarded the $236,000 MacArthur “genius” grant in 1981, he carried on cutting his own hair and preparing meals on a hot-plate. And he only ever signed 250 copies of his Pulitzer Prize-winning 2006 novel The Road, all of which he gave to his youngest son John. When the boy turns 18, McCarthy said, “he can sell them and go to Las Vegas or whatever”.

I enjoyed The Road. Couldn't get on with any of his others though.

untilyouarrived,

First I've heard of Boolwyrm. Looks neat!

untilyouarrived,

The new journal is an interesting feature. I journal elsewhere, so won't use it exclusively, but I imagine it will be a handy way of reminding myself of where I've been and what I've been doing.
