Can you remember the first time you used any MS office software ? Yeah that’s right, like a toddler trying to stand up and walk for the first time…

We are so used to MS that we can’t switch to anything else, because evey other software doesn’t do it the “same way as MS”.

It’s not a question if LibreOffice works the same as MS Office, but how much time you’re willing to invest to learn a new tool that isn’t Microsoft.

If your 30 years MS experience isn’t able to switch paradigm with that change, that’s okay… Just stay with Microsoft and let the newer generation take the lead :)

Do you have any clue why they use ipv6 over ipv4?

IPv6-first with IPv4 fallback

I hope by listening to radio, you mean not any mainstream news radio bullshit? Else that would be counter productive and just use your phone to put some music without ads and fearmongering!!

Same experience here… Luckily we have brew ^^ Gives some freedom to customize !

But things like .plst… What a hellish dumb experience ! Nowadays I use my Mac as testing ground before they go into my main server…

But what a surprise when I found out that bash on Mac doesn’t work the same as on Linux…

Yeaaah Macs are good for a set/forget/pay workflow… But tinkering?? Naaaah.

Thanks for the clarification :)) still new the all the bash syntax and always interested to hear what more skilled people have to say !

I learned this the hardway with ffmpeg… In my defense… Their documentation IS huge !!!

Kinda interested if 2>&1 would also work in this case?

It’s also kinda good¿ For writing scripts and write regex, specially claude !

If have some very basic knowledge in bash and not enough lifetime to invest into a 1 year full bash course, python or regex patterns… It’s already very time consuming to self-host everything :/.

And while it mostly does what I want/need I also learned a few cool bash tricks i wasn’t aware… Like how to write and use functions !

Why would “non-tech-savvy seniors” care what version of the Nvidia driver is installed?

Maybe he still loves playing games? 🤷 And sometimes new GPUs and drivers can be a bit tricky and buggy !

Debian being unusable due to old packages

Yeah… Debian is probably the most stable distro I’ve ever used ! I even forget it’s installed on my server sometimes and that APT is the package manager xD

I dunno if this is a proper way… However I remember I did a similar thing to route all my traffic from all my devices to protonVPN’s free tier.

I can’t remember exactly how, but IIRC 2 wg connections where used (wg0 and wg-ext) and with some iptables rules I was able to route all traffic from wg0 to wg-ext without issues.

While I can’t exactly remember how, I think I still have the config files arround if you’re interested I can dig into my old backups :)

Yeah doin the same here. Unlock bootloader, root with magisk and install a debloater + firewall and block everything by default and only allow things I trust.

However, this phone is the last one to allow this kind of magic… Since android 16 just bricks your phone if you do that.

Oh my… What a sweet little chunk ! I’m jealous, I wish I had the need for something like this…

Still on my old repurposed laptop and thinking to switch to my used old desktop case as homelab “server”.

But this looks so nice ! Congrats !!

That’s a long terme goal sadly :/ Either they’re slowly doing this to avoid a mass movement to another browser (but which one :() or that’s some inside job to slowly kill and let Firefox die ^^

This is perfect for mass surveillance and social credit data. So they can keep all your important data from day 1 until your death and even for the next hunedred generations…

I really want to… But i’m fucking lazy… Is there an easy way to implement that with say heliboard?

I’m not sure what WinSCP has what linux SCP hasn’t? I guess WinSCP is a GUI tool?

I do a lot of scp to send files between machines (even mac<->linux).

Hey :) Thanks for sharing your project ! I’m still not 100% sure I need this because right now I just make backups of my dot files and config files and i’m relatively new with git and my self-hosted forgejo instance.

However, after experimenting the power of version control, i’m kinda interessted to host my dot/config files into my hosted forgejo instance ! But permissions and ownership are not natively supported and needs manual intervention !

Is that the issues your project is solving?

DID YOU skip the previous warning? Make sure you didn’t skip it, as this might cause you to lose access to your own files!

😂🫡 Well written and funny documentation ! Thank you !

multiple languages at the same time (without switching).

Is that an option to enable somewhere?

🤣🤣🙏

Hey, in case you didn’t find or another user is interested, here is the wiki documentation part for the different blocking modes (easy, medium, hard).

None… I tried with my Dad and even add some cool tools in additions (youtube dlp frontend). 2 days later he just reinstalled Windows on top because: “My USB audio dongle didn’t worked”.

Guess what? I didn’t either on Windows and was an external peripheral issue, not an OS/driver issue.

But he also said:" Too complicated for me" 🤦‍♂️
