@Vejeta Hi! Chromium maintainer here, just wanted to say that I appreciate the write-up (and the associated bug report followup). I have some paid work that will involve dealing with qtwebengine’s embedded chromium - I’m hoping to address both QT and CEF at the same time. Currently focused elsewhere, but I’m thinking in a few months.
@Coolcoder360 @lemming741 seafile has a fuse extension, at least: https://manual.seafile.com/latest/extension/fuse/
That said, I switched from seafile to syncthing and never looked back. Turns out I didn’t really need the web interface.
@rook To be fair, that’s an extremely zen attitude ChatGPT has - “Focus on the 5 healthy SAS drives.” Therapy goals! 😏
@tburkhol @rook Protip for Pi4B TV usage: if your TV has a USB port, you might be able to power the Pi from it. I turn the TV on and my 4B gets power from it, boots up, and starts Kodi (I’m using libreelec) automatically. When I turn the TV off, the TV hardware stays powered for like 5 mins before going into a low power mode which kills power to the Pi.
@communism @Natanox I’d argue the client itself has a fair bit of jank, though. Like, the background bubble color around text is too dark, it makes it look really ugly and dated. Pinned messages in a channel, when displayed at the top, literally overwrite each other. You’ll just have garbled/overlapping text.
Neochat looks much better out of the box (but neochat is also buggy w/ e2ee, dropping encryption keys randomly).
@tofu @Deceptichum I haven’t had problem with concrete walls, but the walls with metal lathe (& plaster) really do a number on wifi and cell signal. I’m guessing different kinds of metal lathe probably makes a difference, too; my prior house literally had chicken wire in the ceilings, my current house has more like a metal sheet with smaller holes punched out.
@BlindFrog @Feathercrown Same. I buy broken ones of the same model off ebay and use them for parts when needed, because I don’t want a newer vacuum with wifi. It *would* be nice to move off of NiMH batteries, but they’re good enough for now.
@Courantdair @eddyizm Two vowels and a consonant!
[I kid, I kid. Tempo development has slowed or stopped and has a number of outstanding annoying bugs. Tempus is a fork with more active development happening.]
@ArchEngel @Eirikr70 You can try it out by just downloading a client and registering an account on a free server. It’s all here: https://xmpp.org/getting-started/.
Once you find a client you like and decide you want to stick with it, you can install a server you like. Prosody, snikket, and ejabberd are the most well-regarded (and snikket is just a fork of prosody that’s designed to have a super easy setup; so realistically you’re down to a choice between two).
@sobchak @bagel You can also buy industrial microsd cards that are a bit better than consumer grade ones. That’s what I did after I managed to kill a consumer microsd card after about 6 months in a Pi 4b. The one I have (https://www.kingston.com/en/memory-cards/industrial-grade-microsd-uhs-i-u3) is rated for 1,920 TB written. That’s better than, say, a 2TB WD SN850X (1,200 TBW), and faaaar better than typical consumer microsd (Sandisk High Endurance appears to be 117 TBW, for example).
@libre_warrior @thelocalhostinger The fact is that we consider selfhosting somehow “special”, as opposed to “I’m just running this [ideally free & open] app that shares stuff with my friends”, is part of the problem. Damn you, IPv4 and NAT! *shakes fist*
@corsicanguppy @sonofearth People concerned about this kind of thing could sponsor distributions to create native packages. For example, hire a debian developer to package and include immich in debian.
I’ve personally been meaning to package navidrome for debian for several years now, but other things have taken priority.
@FreedomAdvocate @NewNewAugustEast You could just say “sorry, my bad,” you know. It’s pretty simple.
@muusemuuse You can use navidrome in jukebox mode, and then play stuff either using navidrome’s built-in web interface, or any number of subsonic clients. https://www.navidrome.org/docs/usage/jukebox/
@possiblylinux127 @A_norny_mousse ungoogled-chromium disables safe browsing, and for Debian’s chromium package I keep going back and forth about whether to pull that patch in or not.
@MrMcGasion @Sunny Come to the dark side (xmpp, and jmp.chat) and get decentralized messaging and SMS support with that data-only sim!
@Blue_Morpho @Onomatopoeia Hm, is that something that snapraid scrub would theoretically catch? I’m thinking probably not, as the corruption would likely happen when initially writing the files, rather than after the files have been sitting around on disk for a while.
@rimu @Dust0741 Also, even if openwrt stops supporting it… If you have a router or firewall or something in front of your access point, then running an old version of openwrt isn’t really that much of a risk if we’re talking about residential wifi w/out a lot of coverage.
And that’s assuming you’d want to stick with a model that openwrt has dropped support for. If they do drop support in a few years, you could buy a newer (better supported) older model again for $40.
