Wanted: operating system that will work on my current computers, without 5 second Spyware, only runs apps That I Install, that does not change my settings after updates, that does not "phone home" with my data, that does not provide "A"lternate "I"lliteration for my searches.

Found: where are my DOS discs...

Seems like today a new minor update to #Forgejo (7.0.3) will land. With lots of little bugfixes. Yeah!

@jwildeboer @forgejo Does it have pipelines yet? (Haven't seen them last time I checked...)

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@jwildeboer @forgejo Commonly referred also to as CI/CD Pipelines: That thing, which is programmed to automatically go through a certain prescribed process, usually processing code (like automated builds) or releases/deployment of built artefacts onto remote environments (usually for testing and/or production running purposes)...

Did you know that has a tabbed user interface option? Make sure you're using the latest release, LibreOffice 24.2, to get the most from it! (And you can find it in the menu under View > User Interface...)

@libreoffice It is great.
But it has a major flaw: the view does not survive a switch between light and dark desktop themes 😞

My PC has just told me that it can't run Windows 11, but that Windows 10 will be out of support from October 2025. I have news for you Microsoft, I don't have a spare £1k (or even half that) for a new gaming rig just because you don't like mine. It'll be Linux for me if you force me.

Je fascinující, jak rychle se po letech člověk dostane do Linuxu. Pamatuji si, jak když jsem to zkoušel na střední a pak na vysoké, tak chybělo hodně zásadních aplikací. Teď si dovedu představit, že na Linuxu budu pracovat bez kompromisů.

I'm contemplating getting a board for use at home. I ruled out the enterprise systems that are several thousand USD/EUR, as I plan to only use it for hobby capacity. Is there anything that is there to avoid? I recently learned that the SiFive boards have somewhat terrible memory performance, making them painfully slow for real world use. Any advice?

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@zygoon Questions is: What is your idea behind buying RISC-V machine? A cheap potato for tests? Then VisionFive 2 is ok (or even cheaper slower boards). If you want something with some power (i.e. at least Rpi4B), maybe for a light desktop/home light srv backend)? LicheePi 4A is best choice right now (got one last week).

What to have in mind:

  • Right now (emphasis on >now<) the spport for new kernels/drivers/hw accels etc. is taking off.
  • (No) Support of RISC Vector instructions (0.7 vs 1.0)
theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@zygoon LicheePi 4A uses TH1520 CPU (3 cores @1,9Ghz, 4/8/16GB RAM + integrated eMMC storage, Vector 0.7.1 spec support, currently on kernel 5.10).

It is (now) "Not great, not terrible". With new kernels coming (6.5-6.8) and thus drivers (GL/hw accel/AES accel etc..) and these things coming later this year, it will become quite ok as light desktop/light home server backend.

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@zygoon
A "problem" with >current< CPUs support of RV Vector spec is that majority of today's CPU have no Vector support or spec 0.7 support (not official).

Spec 1.0 was not finalized several years ago, when RV CPU manufacturers decided not to wait any longer and designed and produced current CPU generation -> with either no or v7.0.* spec support. There is minimal to no compiler support for these optimizations, so this has potential big impact performance.

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@zygoon I believe a discussion is still ongoing about Vector 0.7.* vs 1.0 compiler support (I did not have time to dig deeper into this yet so I'm unsure about the current state, but general notion is NOT to support v0.7.* -> start digging here https://github.com/brucehoult/riscv-gnu-toolchain).

If you are ok with trying RV kernel builds etc, LicheePi is very good start now.

On the other hand probably a new gen of devices with rvv1.0 CPUs will get released later this year, so it might be ok to wait for a little while 🙂

Arab Americans, young progressives, etc.: Will you stop Israel’s genocide of our people?

Biden: No, we will continue to fund it.

Arab Americans, young progressives, etc.: So why should we vote for you?

Biden: Because the other guy is worse.

What’s worse than genocide? Are their dead loved ones and family members going to be double dead under Trump?

Instead of blaming people for not voting for their own genocide maybe try blaming your candidate for sponsoring it.

@aral So, did Hamas already return all these Israeli hostages?🤔

I'm still not out of the rabbit hole of searching for an software. 🐰

I'm gonna give a second try to @zettlr tomorrow! Their docs are surprisingly user-friendly and they claim to stick to the pure where probable. It's all the while being nice to researchers with citing, inline usage of , , and pop-over . Provision of the simple export and customization are welcome, too!

But, to be fair, I may be overexaggerating how good is because of my recent disgust with . In fact, almost anything that closely follows the common spec and is might suffice already. Having something as advanced and closer to the roots is certainly refreshing!

@vintprox @zettlr I have found NextCloud Collectives surprisingly useful at being a knowledge mgmt system.

Do you have an elderly parent or grandparent or uncle or aunt or anyone in your family who really should stop relying on Fox News?

Change their DNS to use Next DNS and block Fox News.

Office with : "doesn't spark joy" would be a compliment. 😔

Still a long way to go for FOSS in this corner.

I wonder what organizations running NextCloud are using for collaborative office solutions. Is it OnlyOffice? Something else? No collaboration but NextCloud sync somehow and local LibreOffice? 🤔

Has somebody experience here?

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@number137 @publicvoit I'm using Collabora. Functionally it is ok. Design-wise it there is room for improvement...

But it is free and gets the job done quite well, so what? 🤔

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@publicvoit @number137 The question here is, what exactly do you need in/with your documents?

Still, by my experience I can say that e.g. MSOffice online also lacks some basic functions too...

theron29,
@theron29@witter.cz avatar

@publicvoit @number137 Sorry to hear that 😞

Would you care to share your setup, how you are running it? Or what are you trying to achieve?

I'm running the Nextcloud and Collabora office at my home, on a RPi4, behind reverse proxy and SSL, accessible on my public domain from the internet, and it works pretty well...
