I’m no international law expert but I don’t think that follows the Geneva convention.

Create a docker container without explicitly naming it. Job done.

Has anyone here installed friendica? I tried to give it a go yesterday with the the docker image. The login page is showing up, but it is giving me HTTP 500 errors when I click sign up I also get no errors in any logs.

I guess I’ll never know what the kids are saying ever again because there’s no way I’m installing either of those apps.

I wish the web interface let you sort the sub categories both ways. I have a series of subcategories of Year/month that I’m using as a journal and the longer I keep writing, the further have to scroll down :/

I don’t think my kids have ever used a Windows machine. I have a couple of machines at home that both run Linux Mint and they use Chromebooks at school. There is not much software that they need that is not either a web page or also available natively.

Much of the time, the sites only put a small blurb and a link to the actual article in the feed, so you still have to click through to read it all.

Oh, look. An U.T.B.A.P.H.

I abhor those Temu YouTube ads.

TikTok is correct. Ban them all.

I still use Windows for work, but the last version I used on any of my personal computers was XP.

If AI is better than the existing voice-prompt systems, then I’ll take it, but I doubt it will be.

I remember running Slackware and having to recompile the kernel for just about any hardware you added. I configured a box to be used as a router before routers were something you could get commonly at Best Buy.

I was taking comp. sci. at university and all our work was done on Sparc workstations. Having a Unix-like machine at home was a great help during that time

I see what you did there.

Navidrome is still the best music server, even with all of its limitations. For what it’s worth, the developer is currently working on features intended to support multiple music libraries. It’s going to happen eventually.

Does nextcloud deck have recurring tasks yet? I didn’t think it did.

+1 for long-ass backup script. First dump the databases with the appropriate command. Currently, I have only MariaDB and Postgres instances. Then, I use Borg to backup the database dumps and the docker volumes.

Database SQL dumps compress very well. I haven’t had any problems yet

I wanted to follow up here because I became aware of a pretty good solution for this. It’s called pine pods and it’s an open source self-hosted service that also syncs with GPodder (or Nextcloud’s version of it) so it will keep AntennaPod and itself synched.

Seems like Chris Pine is getting surprised a lot these days. Maybe we shouldn’t be asking him about these things.

I currently use AntennaPod with NextCloud’s version of GPodderSync; which is…adequate.

My ultimate solution would be one where a self-hosted app that tracks and download my podcasts, and then proxy them with some sync mechanism to an android app, but keep them as separate shows with artwork and stuff rather than consolidate them into one feed. I could then choose to listen on the self-hosted web interface or the Android app, and they would be kept in sync.
