I’ve been a good boy for 5 years or so but the seas call to me. Are streaming sites the way to go now or is torrenting still a better bet for mainstream movies and tv? I’d imagine all of my accounts have been deleted on those sites so I’d be starting over.
Check this wiki, specially the torrebt and Usenet pages… Then you can wither follow the practical installation pages or ignore and find some docker only guides.
Be careful not to burn the Linux bridge by being not able to support the transition now… :)
Edit: what I mean is, if you are responsible for this transition, now study study study… Be very careful and test each setup on a “test” machine before going to deploy for others…
I have an 11th gen Framework mainboard which I would like to repurpose as a server. Unfortunately, (unless I do some super janky stuff) I can only connect 1 drive to it over M.2 and any additional ones must be over USB....
Been running raid1 on USB for over a decade. Avoid chaeap USB stuff, get foot brand USB boxes and preferably a JBOD multi-disk enclosure, since they tend to be the best quality.
Never had a disconnect.
Beware to properly label your driver tough, as Linux software raid (I use that) tend to hiccup on boot if the kernel reassign USB devices after a reboot.
Many people suggest immich or photoptism, but those are not the correct tools for this use case. Piwigo us great, but in my esperience slow and clunky. Lychee is great tough and probably the correct answer to op.
Still on 3.5mm Jack. I have a poco x3 NFC. And would buy again a phone with a jack but…
No i don’t use it much, maybe once in a while when I need headphones while my BT tw are charging or I forgot them home.
To be honest wired headphones are unpractical and messy and I always tend to tear them out of my hears. Usually only use them at my desk with my laptop while phone on bt headset.
So to be honest, jack is something I could do without but that would still be an inconvenience for the limited cases I would need.
So probably I would buy a phone without one… Granted I would always prefer one with the jack at same price/hardware point.
I got a mildly expensive pair (100€) and are rock solid since I guess 2018 or 2019. Batteries still last as much as needed, and they never failed me. Battery last days with my usage and in any case, just recharge one while using the other. I use them for phone calls mostly, or movies, and lots of music while I run.
I also have a cheapo pair (30€) which still work from 2015/0216 but I didn’t used them much since 2019, so…
I consider myself an old fart, but you need to get out and do more experiences yourself.
Wireless Bluetooth headsets have been pretty nice for years. Don’t go too cheap (but even cheap ones can be good) but don’t waste too much money either on them and you will be fine.
Pairing today is smooth and easy, never had an issue in the last 5 years at very least. Battery life is pretty good, my tw buds get a week worth of charge at my usage (and I use them for daily sport training, calls and occasional video). They get charged automatically when I put them back in the box and the box itself recharge in like 30 minutes.
And you can use them one at a time, which is good to get truly unlimited “call time”. .moreover, my model can both do noise cancelation or environment sound pass-trough which is amazingly good when running on asphalt (the latter) and trying to isolate in the office (the former).
Moreover having no chord dangling getting pulled and catching around is unreliable better experience.
I had to go back to wired a few times (forgot the wireless home…) And found how much worse experience that is.
Of course, I prefer the choice and I have always purchased a phone with audio jack and will do again if at the same price/hardware level.
All my micro-usb phones have the port mangled or damaged over time. I had even to replace one, once.
All my usb-c phones have had zero issues with the port itself. And that’s as well true for my kids. Once they managed to break a micro USB but they never even had a single issues in USBC.
They stand much better the forced insertion/unplugging in my experience. yMMv.
I am using markor on android and silverbullet (web) on anything else.
Joplin was OK, but the android editor felt sluggish and the only available web GUI was… Meh. And I still had to use WebDAV to sync. And I lost all my data once due to how Joplin “think” sync should be done.
Now using syncthing with markor&silverbullet. Nice combo, and I can still access all my notes over WebDAV anyway.
streaming or torrenting today vs. 5 years ago
I’ve been a good boy for 5 years or so but the seas call to me. Are streaming sites the way to go now or is torrenting still a better bet for mainstream movies and tv? I’d imagine all of my accounts have been deleted on those sites so I’d be starting over.

Is RAID1 over USB Reliable?

E-Bikes Should Not Require Pedaling, Proposes U.K. Government, Diverging From E.U. (www.forbes.com)
E-bikes could get faster, more powerful and not require pedaling, in a move announced today by UKGOV. Cycling organizations are opposed to the plans.
[General question to the Android community] Have you given up on the audio jack, or do you still only buy devices that have it?
