  • I agree that Linux phones would be an alternative, but they're not going to get there by the September deadline.

    Open Android development will need to continue for another (vague handwaving) 5 years yet

  • I'd like to tell you a joke about UDP, but you might not get it... 😉

  • We have a ZzZ script which slowly turns off the TV and lights.

    It works from one end of the house through the kitchen, then lounge, then up the stairs, the idea is it follows me to bed turning off things as I'm walking...

    A separate script tells me that it's time for bed (as I find finishing the day difficult).

  • Ok, good point.

    This would be local only so they can up/download ebooks here and share with the family - when they're here.

    Thanks

  • So... if my SO is buying ebooks from the Kobo store, can they upload to Calibre (etc) and then someone else can download it?

    They read a heap of books and want to share them with their family... who are on Kindles, with that DRM nonsense (boooo)

  • Hmm. Interesting, thanks!

  • Kinda related question: is there an EU version of Bandcamp?

    I'd like to suppport smaller artists, and bandcamp's business model is great (I can stream an album before purchase)

  • Yeah, this.

    It's annoying as hell waiting 6 weeks for someone to come online with that last 3%.

    Anything I find like that I seed as long as I can

  • Yep, totally agree... the right tool for the right job.

  • Get an SSH tunnel working first.

    That'll find all the problems poking holes through home routers, dynamic public IPs, etc.

    Once you've got that part running, then you can look at VNC or... and hear me out... I just run the X11 apps remotely. So I'm opening their apps on my laptop, changing the config for their session and it's done.

    I reconfigured Thunderbird that way when we moved email providers foe the family's email.

    No need for VNC to transmit all their screen when just the app is needed 😉

  • Yeah, I agree... I want (and have) a NAS... and a separate Server.

    The NAS is a NAS, not a TrueNas running my firewall, making coffee and keeping the house warm.

    I also agree with OMV for someone starting out. I stuck with it until it got a little too containerised for my own liking and ended up building my NAS out of standard Arch because I now knew what features I wanted.

    And my Proxmox is on a passively cooled small, silent, box in my home office. It will be upgraded to Incus on plain Arch one day because, again, I now know what features I want / don't want.

    For OP, try things, break things, try other things... just make sure you have backups 😉

  • Thankyou. For some reason thst just made me laugh and I've had a shit day... so thanks 🙂

  • I bet you it's a hardware issue.

    Run Memtest+ to check the RAM first...

    Might be a PSU / heat issue....

  • Interesting...

    I have a Pi Zero2W with a (v1) respeaker hat and it's pretty good, but doesn't do well in a moderately noisy environment.

    I was considering to get a voice preview instead... but... maybe I should consider the v2 respeaker instead? I already have the pi...

  • Ooh, didn't know about that. Does a replacement screen fix it, or is it the actual screen component that's the problem?

    Was eyeballing one on ebay...

  • Arch is on 2026...

  • It's not about AV. It's about vulnerabilities.

    AV just uses (often multiple) vulns to do something, and with closed-source systems you can't fix it yourself, so you need an application to do it for you.

    AV is a block-list approach... always needs updating, even for things you don't have. Linux can operate with allow-lists, so only the apps you have can execute.

    Plus firewalls (outbound as well as inbound), SSH, secure package repos, etc.

    You don't need AV, but, you can have it if you want it (maybe file-less memoey resident stuff)

    But, yeah, that other post was just mayhem.
