Whats your thoughts on Ai in your terminal? (www.warp.dev)

Today i was doing the daily ritual of looking at distrowatch. Todays reveiw section was about a termal called warp, it has built in AI for recomendations and correction for commands (like zhs and nushell). You can also as a chatbot for help. I think its a neat conscept however the security is what makes me a bit skittish. They...

wolre,

I’m likely going to try out Wave Terminal with a self hosted LLM. I think it may well be quite useful, just don’t want to upload my entire command history to OpenAI.

wolre,

I think not wanting to federate/bridge with Bluesky is a very bad idea. The entire idea is that we should get a Fediverse that is as connected as possible, not split up into many tiny subsets of users.

wolre,

As for DaVinci Resolve, installation can be a bit weird if you don’t happen to run one of the officially supported Distros. Because of that, the easiest way to run it is probably via DistroBox, Michael Horn made a great tutorial about that: youtu.be/wmRiZQ9IZfc

wolre,

It wouldn’t be trivial to package such a big app as a flatpak (or snap for that matter) and also maintain it properly, so as long as the original developers don’t do the work I think it is unlikely to happen. But for a tool that I’m going to be using a lot in the future I think it makes sense to invest the time once to install it, even if it’s a bit more complicated.

Cloud storage for encrypted backups recommendations

Hi! I’m looking for a good cloud storage provider for my backups. I will encrypt them locally and rclone them, so integration is important. I’ve been looking through reddit, and every single provider has something behind their ears (closes accounts, scans files, sketchy, blah blah blah), so I’m having a bit of an analysis...

wolre,

If you want something that works very well and is quite convenient, I can recommend the Scaleway S3 Glacier storage. If you only need a few GBs, it will only cost a couple of cents per month.

wolre,

If anything, I feel like Nextcloud Mail is the thing that’s going to end up being killed, not Roundcube. Nextcloud doesn’t exactly seem like a company that would buy a superior product just to kill it off.

wolre,

I had been using Linux on servers for years, and finally also decided to give it a shot on the Desktop during the Linux challenge from linustechtips. Went to PopOS first, then Fedora and Debian and am currently on OpenSuse.

wolre,

I’ve been using OpenSuse Slowroll basically since it released and so far am very happy with it.

wolre,

Fire TV has been a horrible experience for a while and is only getting worse with them adding more and more apps. I have yet to use a Fire TV that is not a laggy piece of garbage. Honestly, whenever someone I know is looking for a TV I urge them to stay away from Fire TV at all costs.

wolre,

Jup, love that the price is not just not being increased with upgraded specs, the remaining stock of the old Steam Deck variants is actually being significantly discounted.

wolre,

Thinking about finally getting one. The 512GB OLED does look very good…

I also wonder if they’re ever going to have a non-handheld console (essentially a revamped Steam Machine). I’ve heard a bunch about people building PCs and running Holo ISO on there as a console replacement, might make sense to have an official solution from Valve.

wolre,

Sure, but the form factor of the Steam Deck will always limit performance and carry some extra cost with it. And for a large user base installing another OS on a PC (Holo ISO) is something they are not going to do. Hence, Steam Machine.

wolre,

Feels like we’re both getting the wrong content then. 🙃 I do care about Linux and barely see anything about it here.

FlorisBoard | FOSS keyboard that respects your privacy (florisboard.org)

I came across everyday topic on Techlore Discussions about free and open source keyboards for Android and discovered this little gem. It is FlorisBoard, a virtual keyboard for Android which respects privacy of the user. I can sigh with relief and finish my search for that singular keyboard for typing stuff on the go....

wolre,

May try it out if I can get over the fact that I won’t have multi language support without switching manually anymore. I’ve been trying to move away from SwiftKey, but as someone who typed regularly in 3 (occasionally 4) languages and switches between them quite a lot, it’s a feature that I’m not sure I can live without. So far I haven’t seen any FOSS keyboards supporting multi language in such a seamless way.

wolre,

Actually, the goal is to fold all of these national digital payment schemes (like iDeal, Payconic, Giropay,…) into a unified European system called WERO which is also based on SEPA Instant Transfers and will be rolled out over the next couple of years. They actually just finished the acquisition of iDeal recently.

wolre,

After the redesign I’m honestly surprised half of the world is not on Thunderbird already.

wolre,

As I understand, even when paying you would still see ads and not get any benefits over what Twitter is at the moment whatsoever. I honestly cannot imagine the platform retaining many users after such a drastic step.

wolre,

I do agree that adding some kind of backup option is probably a good idea. For many people, losing their email account would mean being locked out of basically all their online accounts (or, in case the account gets compromised, it would mean that all other online accounts would now be compromised too). The majority of people do not use password managers or 2FA, and I’ve made the experience that many people simply cannot be convinced to make online security a priority. While I’m also a FOSS and online privacy advocate and use tons of self hosted services for that reason, having some way to regain access to their Google account is almost certainly worth the extra data point that Google gets access to. Especially since the likelihood of them already knowing about your phone number is basically 100% if you are logged in on an Android device.

wolre,

As others have already mentioned, there will be EU regulation that comes into effect soon that will force messengers to be interoperable. Despite following the topic quite actively, it still seems to be quite uncertain how this interoperability will look like. I also have some concerns about companies making interoperability opt-in, requiring users to go to the app settings and manually turning it on or presenting them with a popup that makes it seem like interoperability is a security risk (a Meta spokesperson revealed that they were pushing for a solution like that pretty heavily). Either way, before trying to get other people to migrate to another platform I would first wait and see what the implications of this regulation are.

wolre,

I get the criticism that you still need to use the CLI for many more advanced tasks, but 11 “program install processes”? I assume you mean package managers? I only use two on Debian, apt and flatpak and don’t really see the need for anything more. If you just use a gui store like Gnome Software or Discover you don’t even see a difference between the two in the first place.

The only time that issues arise is when you try to instal something that is not (or not properly) supported on Linux. Otherwise I’d argue the presence of a centralized store GUI even makes installing apps easier on Linux than on Windows.

wolre,

Infinity is going to be great once everything is properly supported!

wolre,

As far as I know, that’s the plan. They just haven’t had an initial non-alpha/beta release yet since the app is still quite unfinished (references to Reddit, certain menus just error out, etc.)

You usually want to have a product that is kind of working when you ship it to normies

I'm done with NextCloud

Just had NextCloud denying my credentials (not for the first time). I know they weren’t wrong because I’m using a password manager. Logs didn’t say much. Was about to reinstall (again, not the first time nextcloud went bonkers on me) before I tried a docker compose down && docker compose up. Lo and behold after a restart...

wolre,

Would be interesting to hear a little more about your setup. I had some issues when I had Nextcloud installed directly on Debian (though nothing this major), have since switched to running it on Docker and it’s been very solid.
