Interests: Linux, Fountain Pens, Rugby, Selfhosting, and a bit of boardgaming, rpgs, and Nintendo switch gaming.
Laptop and Workstation run Fedora. Servers run Proxmox.
Can’t say that there is anything new and exciting. Big change for me has been that I have accepted flatpacks. I’ve gotten to the point where I don’t care about being a purist, don’t care about customizing and theming everything. I just want to use my computer.
I keep my books in AudioBookShelf and use the android app to download to my phone. But, AudioBookShelf doesn’t work on Android Auto, so I use Voice to play the books in my car. They can share storage which makes it nice.
There were some good pieces on Groklaw back in the day about the history of unix and Linux.
I use Monica. The journal function is meh and a pain to use from phone. Otherwise I love it. When I meet new people through my friend group, I add them so I can remember details about them for next time we meet.
I’m trying this out. Installed both on phone and laptop last night.
I use Joplin for keeping various notes and would rather not combine it with my journal.
I’m looking for something like DayOne or billthefarmers Diary app that is easy to use from mobile, but then has a selfhosted website I can use to go back and review/relive/edit the experiences.
Does Obsidian support audio/video?
Memos looks pretty good with the MoeMemos app. Although it doesn’t look like video/audio is supported.
If that is the case, then you should be very happy to leave Linux for a proprietary OS that Nvidia works on and properly supports.
Odd, I don’t see it.
Great stuff! How about WindowMaker?
I just had an Aviation for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Splendid.
In all honesty, it is a hodge podge. Some are in my dokuwiki, some are plain text, some are markdown, some in my phone, lots on scraps of paper. Just about the time I get it all in one place I scrap my systems and start over.
This is the first I’ve heard of Kroki. A quick glance at their site and wow! So many options for markup. I’ll be trying this out for sure
I have it running on Yunohost. Point and click to try it out before moving to a container and just never got around to doing it in a container.
What email archive software do you use? I’ve often thought about spinning up an IMAP server locally that doesn’t send/receive but allows me to copy all my old mail to it. I have a dozen or more email accounts across different providers and would want each kept separate in the archive. They also span 15+ years.
I haven’t seen this paperwm. I’ll have to check it out.
I have tried it. It resizes windows weirdly. I haven’t dug through the settings for it, so it could be fixable. No matter how I resize my terminal, it always snaps to smaller than a quarter of the screen. Thunderbird seems to always resize bigger than a quarter of the screen. It’s still better than nothing, but I’d love for it to be built in.
A good start would be to implement quarter tiling by dragging window to screen corner, like half tiling is done by dragging to screen edge.
I have a 3840x2160 monitor specifically so that I can have four windows open at the best size for their content (email, document, web browse, and terminal) and can avoid the use of workspaces and see everything at once. Having to manually resize and place windows is a pain.
Does the ADS1700W require drivers from Brother?
I really would like to find an AIO to conserve space. .
