Lenny needs some flair or global politics filter

This looks awesome and something I’ve been hoping to do for a few years. Can’t wait to try this on my home server.

And that is not a good thing.

Not just Windows, but Macs as well; I’ve had three different generations of MacBooks that you could plug a USB-C (thunderbolt) into any dock (Dell, HengeDock, random amazon brand, etc) and they simply worked.

I do feel your pain about multiple monitors; it is even more evident when you try to run some of them rotated and/or flipped.

I’ve not found a solution for it yet, and in some small way, I am glad to hear it’s not just me having these problems.

I’ve been debating for a while to switch windows to Linux and see how well it works for my games, thanks Microsoft for finally pushing me to do it!

Only thing keeping me on windows has been games (all other development use is far easier on Linux); but with the work that happened with Steam Deck, many games are now fully functional on Linux.

This is why I refuse to use any download buttons on websites for FOSS apps; if it’s FOSS, it has a link to the source, which has releases, and is the safest way to ensure you’re getting what you actually want.

And a letter away from Futa, which has a whole other world of a meaning…

thanks for the tips! I am running a Ryzen 9 5950X, so it definitely needs a standalone GPU. I am going to be getting a 1070 off the kids’ computer once I upgrade them later this year, so I think I’ll just stick that into it.

Would really like to get the seamless transcoding to work so the whole family can use it without hiccups.

Very much agree on all these points; I just wish I could get the transcoding to actually work.

I’ve been running Jellyfin in a container and giving it access to an old GTX970 but it just refuses to do anything with it.

We have spent so long asking if we could, we didn’t stop to ask if we should.

We definitely should not have.

Real estate is one thing, but small claims court over unpaid goods and services provided is another.

How does cancelling a pie order at delivery mean that you don’t pay? You try to cancel a dental appointment in less than 48hrs and you still get charged for that appointment

Stop with the spamming across instances and communities

Example:

I self host Outline with storage connected to a Minio instance that I use as S3 storage for several applications.

I loved the ability of writing in markdown form, but a simple and intuitive design, with the ability to share a whole collection, a subset of pages, or a single page publicly without dealing with a bunch of overhead.

It’s not the doctor and it’s def not the insurance company (although insurance companies are evil in their own way).

Insurance companies make money from limiting what services they cover for you and by negotiating doctors down into lower rates for the services they do cover; the less money they spend on your services is more profit for them.

The people actually making money and charging obscene amount, are

• facility owners (hospital, clinics, urgent care) who produce nothing, but simply have the capital to own property and start the business
• drug companies that charge thousands percents of profit simply because they can (remember the epi pen scandal?)

The doctor seeing you wants to make a living doing something they enjoy and excel at; the facility owners are who hire people educated in medical coding just to tack on every possible fee they can, stopping just short of fraud.

That ibuprofen they gave you? It really cost less than a dollar to produce, package, and ship to the facility; but because you were inpatient when you swallowed it, well now it’s $35

That doctor that came by while you were sleeping just to glance at your chart without actually consulting or giving any review of care plan? That’s $600 because fuck you

Having worked in healthcare and insurance for 14yrs now, it’s just fucking depressing to see how everything works.

Not sure it’s worth the effort to recreate the wheel when Floccus is FOSS and uses your destination of choice.

If anything I’d throw up Nextcloud into docker and set that as the source for Floccus

Wasn’t the project abandoned some years ago?

Edit: nvm, looks like it was rewritten into https://github.com/mozilla-services/syncstorage-rs

Floccus is a great option with different sync sources and works across browsers

How I wish I had seen this about a month ago when I spent hours smarting up the nginx module and converting the maxmind DBs to v1 to make the compatible.

I do wonder how well this performs compared to the nginx module

If you’re doing the uploads yourself, the fastest solution for large files (e.g. compress into a tar/7z) will be rsync.

It requires minimal setup (ssh or vpn connection) and uses chunk transfer which is typically faster and can be resumed in event of connection failures
