abominable_panda,

I use joplin with nextcloud and it works well. It supports webdav if you have other solutions, or even local filesystem with which you can use something like syncthing

abominable_panda,

This, as well as the fediverse’s double edged feature that stuff pretty much can never be deleted (only “requested”).

This sounds like a privacy nightmare

abominable_panda,

Like a project management software?

There’s Openproject and Leantime… not sure if its what youre looking for though Both self hostable

abominable_panda,

Are you a beaver? 'Cos DAM

abominable_panda,

Depending which app you use you can just go to your profile and click upvoted

abominable_panda,

Voyager has it

Eternity doesnt

I dont think jerboa did either - i uninstalled so cant check

Android btw

What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for?

It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?

Ingenious ways to measure power draw

So I wanted to get myself a Kill-a-watt. Being who I am, I wanted information regarding its accuracy, especially at low power draws. I found a comparison with a industry grade equipment (Fluke is about the best out there in handheld electrical meters). It’s not encouraging, so I thought about a more proper meter, but it’s...

abominable_panda,

In terms of raw data, any properly calibrated equipment should be identical.

You could build one yourself or have a look at how to get readings from your actual electricity meter. Both can be found on the open energy monitor project page. If you self build i guess you could use a lower value CT that amplifies lower currents and just not use it at higher loads?

Mains power fluctuates a LOT though so youll definitely need averaging to some extent

Having to wind back a cassette or vcr with a paperclip or spoon if the strip got tangled, or even just having to wait for the player to forward/rewind

Menstruation cycle tracking app breached users' privacy, B.C. class-action lawsuit alleges (bc.ctvnews.ca)

VANCOUVER - A British Columbia Supreme Court judge says a class-action lawsuit can move forward over alleged privacy breaches against a company that made an app to track users’ menstrual and fertility cycles. The ruling published online Friday says the action against Flo Health Inc. alleges the company shared users’ highly...

Encryption and password protection is in the changelog for drips first version v0.0.1 - 5 years ago

I couldnt find your app on fdroid btw

abominable_panda,

Yep it was a struggle to find. I checked website, issues and then finally made a last attempt at the change logs. It should be advertised more for that added piece of mind.

I didnt mean to shoot your app down by the way, in case it came across that way. Ive never used these apps

Thanks for developing your version though. People like you make this community what it is :)

abominable_panda,

Would flash memory survive in a microwave? How has she managed to get this footage to post if the camera died?

Persistent Live USB Install?

How can I easily make a live USB drive that is persistent? My goal is to boot it through the boot menu (not grub). And just reboot to Windows for the few things I need on my laptop. I would prefer if my laptop had no trace of Linux installed. I found a guide, but it looked endless and needlessly complicated. Does anyone have a...

abominable_panda,

Dont have instructions yet but I think you partition your usb drive so you have the liveusb on one and basically a persistent flash drive on the other and save your home data to that

abominable_panda,

VSCodium is less bloated

abominable_panda,

Catima doesnt support pkpass yet

abominable_panda,

Theres so much to unpack…! But ill try and throw something in the mix.

I dont know if freenas/ truenas supports a lot of addons or whatever they call it but the moment you mentioned media and games my thought went to proxmox, though i suppose you might also be able to get away with a bunch of docker containers.

Soo… proxmox (or any hypervisor) will allow you to run multiple segregated VMs and containers.

On one vm you can install freenas/ truenas (whichever the good one is atm, im a little out of touch) and allocate the bulk storage drives to it.

Another vm for Plex/jellyfin

Another for minecraft, factorio, tf2

Another for nextcloud/ webserver

Nextcloud provides webdav/ caldav for calendar and contact syncing so sorted there. It also has a collabora app i think for collaborative document working.

In terms of security, you want to follow nextclouds secure configuration guide as a start.

The best way is to use a vpn to access your home network. Maybe give the others access if you trust them but you may then need to do some vlanning and segregation to protect the rest of your home network from them.

If you must expose to the net (which you may do with the games servers) then again, the config guide has you covered, use crowdsec, use https, use random ports, use strong passwords and mfa.

Do regular backups. 3 copies, 2 separate storage mediums, 1 offsite (3-2-1 rule).

Idk about the 8tb drive.

The above isnt the be all end all. Let it be the start of a discussion and your research journey

abominable_panda,

here

abominable_panda,

Commenting because id also like to know.

In my case I resorted to using another enclosure/ adapter

abominable_panda,

I dont know either. I used a seagate usb to sata adapter too and that gave me problems with large drives. Nothing on the datasheet mentioned anything, so i had an old backup external drive and swapped the drives to do my formatting/ transfer before putting the original back together

abominable_panda,

Meanwhile professor oak:

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

abominable_panda,

Lots of good suggestions already commented. I browse subs and communities, browse fdroid regularly and have a scroll through sourceforge/ git*/ alternativeto/ linux distro repositories now and again

One time i was really bored and just sorted projects on gitlab and github by stars and scrolled page after page finding many interesting projects. Then finding one thing makes you think of another which you can go look in to

abominable_panda,

Generally if youre selfhosting a vpn is better from a cyber security perspective anyway.

abominable_panda,

Looking at the config have you set up the domain name and everything for WAN?
