That is actually very useful. I’m saving that for later.

Yeah, I wasn’t close for a picture and I didn’t know how to explain it (English isn’t my main language). Just has to remember to take a picture next time I went to the bathroom 😆

This

The side of the toilet paper. My best friend is a mad men and puts it on the wrong side. He always changes it whenever he goes to the toilet somewhere.

Its just funny, my gf made a frame specifically for him in our bathroom and at one point we duck taped the shit out of the toilet paper dispenser so he wouldn’t be able to change it. Made everyone laugh.

I migrated from Bitwarden to 1password because I wanted something that works better on Linux. With 1password-cli and PAM integration mainly. Bitwarden worked beautifully under Windows, but once I switched over to Linux, I realised that 1password had more Linux friendly features. I track some discussions over bitwarden that talk about implementing those features, I might come back at some point.

Thx, for podcasts, I paid for pocketcast a long time ago, so I’m fine for now. I’m mainly looking for this use case, but for a standard RSS reader.

Here is a use case: multiple device sync. With a server client infrastructure, read status are synced to the server, so if I change device, I can pick it up where I left off. Same thing as using a cloud service, but self hosted.

Que l’Alberta débute avec ça ne me surprend pas. Je m’attend que beaucoup plus de gouvernements en Amérique du Nord fasse ça avec la diminution des revenus dû à la réduction des véhicules à gas. Aucun gouvernement ne va apprécier voir ses revenus diminuer.

À mon avis, c’est OK de taxer les voitures, mais les voitures à gas devraient être taxés beaucoup plus.

It might. I take the risk. At that point, storage cost will be lower, I’ll just buy a bunch of 20TB drives and build a truenas NAS. In the meantime, I’m satisfied with unraid as I don’t have to spend 2k+ to get 50TB of usable space.

As I said to people I know, fun. I have fun setting this up. Its a hobby. I like to search for bargains and build the automations. If you don’t have fun doing it, its usually not really worth it. It gets expensive quick and its kind of a lot of work to research and setup if you want to keep your privacy.

I use qtile on X11 and hyprland on Wayland. There is an option on hyprland for exactly that (idleinhibit window rule), but didn’t find a good solution on qtile yet. Anyway I have issues with qtile for other things too (because of X11 mainly).

Je sais que tu relates le raisonnement du gouvernement et pas ta position, mais je voulais faire une reponse à ce genre de commentaire.

Aider les gens à se déplacer rend ta population plus flexible. Les gens peuvent se trouver des emplois a des endroits où ils ne pouvaient pas avant. Ça donne beaucoup plus de pouvoir de négociation aux employés puisque ça leur donne accès à des emplois qui leurs étaient inaccessibles. Pour les employeurs qui recherchent de la main d’oeuvre qualifiée, ça leur donne accès à un plus grand bassin de main d’oeuvre.

Voici un rapport de l’APTA qui mentionne un ROI de 5 pour 1. C’est excellent pour l’économie d’investir dans ça.

L’argument de créer des jobs qui paieront des impôts nest pas génial non plus. Si ça valait la peine, aussi bien créer plein de jobs bidon pcq ils vont payer de l’impôt! La réalité c’est que bien souvent le gros de ces subventions vont dans les poches des propriétaires et on ne revoit jamais la couleur de cet argent. En plus, si on investi cet argent là dans le transport en commun, lui aussi va créer des jobs qui vont payer des impôts. La seule variable différente c’est les profits qui disparaissent.

Là où je suis plus en faveur c’est que c’est OK de financer quelques industries qu’on veut kickstart, ce qui est le cas ici. Tu en fais mention dans ton commentaire, l’effet de spécialisation est important. Par contre, à mon avis, ça devrait se faire en échange de parts dans ces entreprises.

The worst I did is wanting to replace the WAN interface on my Opnsense router. I didn’t check properly and replaced my LAN interface instead, rendering the router inaccessible and fucking up my network. Luckily, its a VM on proxmox that was still accessible from IP. I just opened a console to the VM and found out that the whole configuration is in a file. Also, a copy is saved with every configuration change. I just found the right one to restore and voilà! My network was back up.

Plex desktop is also only on flathub.

Lack of knowledge isn’t dumb, it’s just lack of knowledge. You can’t know everything.

I run 2 docker containers, named slightly differently (my setup is a bit more complicated within a stack though). Then I map a different port for the FR one so it doesn’t conflict. Of course, you need a different config volume. Then once the container is up, you can I link my FR sonarr to my EN one. So when I request something on my EN Sonarr, it also adds it to my FR Sonarr.

I also do that with movies, but for HD and 4K instead. I manage multi-language differently.

I’ll PM you for my source of French content.

I’ve been an on and off Linux user for a long time, but my main OS used to be Windows. I recently switched to Linux (Arch btw) and I love it.

For my use cases, here is what I like about windows:

• Office 365
• Gaming
• Onedrive
• Just works
• touch screen and touch pad
• Hardware support
• Autohotkey (can live without)
• Software compatibility
• VR
• Parsec

Here is what I like about Linux

• Dynamic tiling window managers.
• Customization, I can have my notifications on the top right, the way I like them.
• Smooth as fuck: very fast!
• Very clever solutions (looking into NixOS currently for example)
• Terminal: fun to use and it’s fast!
• Much more control over my system.

The things I dislike about windows are mainly that it’s stupid slow compared to Linux and the growing presence of telemetry and ads (though I wasn’t that affected). Also, I can’t replace windows default shortcuts or some functionalities.

What I dislike about Linux is that there is always something that doesn’t work properly. I currently have issues with DPMS. My laptop has trouble with the behavior if the touchpad, sometimes the gestures work, sometimes they don’t, it depends on its mood I guess. I tried Wayland, but with a nvidia card it has a lot of issues, I had to go back to X which sucks since I really prefer the way wayland works. I’m quite technical, but sometimes the solutions don’t really work.

I read a few things in this thread that I disagree with though, namely:

• You can launch apps from PowerShell (terminal)
• You can have package managers, I used scoop, choco and winget. Every app that I use can be installed and updated with those, from PowerShell.
• Pretty sure you can update your system from PowerShell, then you probably can make a script to update everything.
• You can disable auto-updates and auto-reboot in Windows. I never had my computer reboot on me and it stays open 24/7. What I liked is auto-update, but no auto-reboot. I chose when to reboot, only had a notification which was disabled when I was playing a game.
• There are options for launchers, the windows menu or powertoy run.
• You can create shortcuts (similar to .desktop) and you can also make a bat script instead of a bash script.

A lot of comments are about a knowledge deficit, not a capability deficit from Windows.

This is TOTP. I use my password manager for that. I used to use Bitwarden, but I recently switched to 1password.

SSO means single sign on. If I sign on to Google, it automatically sign me on other apps. I use a forward auth on my self hosted services. I used to use authentik but I switched to google since it just works much better. If Google makes a shitty move in that department, I can always fall back to authentik.

I don’t mind using proprietary softwares if they’re good, I just prefer to think about an alternative in case I need to switch.

I installed this week, so I’m not a long time user. But it’s by far the best self hosted photo app that I’ve used. Before that I used nextcloud, but the user experience isn’t as good Imo.

The only things that I miss are automatic albums based on face recognition and pet recognition. I still use google photo to share with family though.

For Gmail, I switched to fastmail. For google photos, I switched for immich.

The services that I still use from them are google maps, YouTube and SSO. They are all services that I wouldn’t mind them shutting down. It’s just that I find them much better than any alternatives.

The Tidal subscription is only available for the account that subscribed to Tidal. Other users can also subscribe themselves, but it’s per user.
