I am still shocked that so many people are okay with cloud-based camera systems. It just seems like a security and privacy nightmare.

Granted, setting up a DIY NAS to host a server and store footage is a whole technical challenge for most people, but still…

In the US, iMessage is really popular.

Not a controversial take at all IMHO. You’re not wrong. Housing is absolutely ridiculous right now.

I use the docker compose file with apache, mariadb, and redis, and it is still a bit slow even on a DIY NAS with a Ryzen 5600G.

Even if they use the native apps? Are the apps polling then?

No reason why western countries also can’t subsidize EV car companies to remain competitive.

Like…what are we supposed to do? Be content with ridiculously priced EVs and be willing to pay a small fortune for them? Fuck off with that noise.

Western corporations have had no problems fucking over the average consumer for decades or laying off thousands of employees at the first sign of trouble. Let them adapt or die I say. Competition is always good. Western corporations have the smarts and the resources to compete, they just need to be forced to.

Eh? I wasn’t suggesting they buy separate hardware. I was just responding to the comment about Linux being cancer for gaming. The Steam Deck is literally proof that the OS is completely viable for gaming. I’ve been gaming just fine on my desktop with an Nvidia 3090. Linux really isn’t as bad as you think it is. It’s funny how there’s a bunch of Windows users that refuse to believe that gaming can happen on another OS. Just sounds close minded tbh.

Anyone gonna tell him about the Steam Deck?

Lately performance has improved dramatically. A year ago, it used to be about half-speed, but now it’s basically on par with a CLI-mount.

Which file manager are you using?

In Nautilus, you can right click anywhere and click Open in Console, at which point it will open up a terminal leading to a gvfs mount directory.

In KDE, it is slightly more annoying because there’s no right click option to quickly open it in terminal, but like gvfs, there’s a mount directory that you can access at /run/user//kio-fuse-/smb/.

It really needs proper federated search. I shouldn’t have to go to a secondary site just to search for videos across the network.

I agree, for most cases just mount it via your File Manager of choice. If you’re using it as a backing storage for another server, then that’s a use case where fstab is fine.

That’s my reasoning as well. Jif is for peanut butter, why make things extra confusing?

Lol, you know you’re getting old when other people start questioning cinema aspect ratios.

I hate how he cuts the video whenever an app is loading. I want to get a feel for how fast apps are launching. The fact that he’s cutting makes me think it must take forever for apps to launch.

Yeah, if you look at some of those YouTube channels that scam the scammers, you’ll usually see that the scammers are all running Windows.

I started with Docker and then migrated to Podman for the integrated Cockpit dashboard support. All my docker-compose files work transparently on top of rootful Podman so the migration was relatively easy. Things get finicky when you try to go rootless though.

I say try both. Rootful podman is gonna be closest to the Docker experience.

My only issue with rootless is that SWAG doesn’t work with it, otherwise my other containers could be rootless. However, I heard connecting rootful and rootless containers is impossible so all my containers are rootful right now.

Cool! I’ve never heard of this project but it looks interesting

Anything below $500 is good. I just need something that’s versatile and also trustworthy.
