  • Can You Use Raspberry Pi 5 as a Desktop Computer?

    Jump

  • Nah brave is fine. Just disable the crypto stuff like everyone else

  • Just a couple weeks ago I installed it for a friend and there was a domain join later button

  • You can also just select the "for work or school" option, then it lets you make a local account because it assumes you will domain join it later, which you dont need to do.

  • What tips or resources would you recommend to someone who knows about Linux and wants to self-host, but has no experience self-hosting?

    Jump

  • Proxmox is a hypervisor, which is an OS that is built to run Virtual Machines (proxmox also runs containers). It is open source and can be installed for free, just like any other linux distribution, the same way Windows is installed. There are tons of tutorials out there on how to use it.

    From there, you could setup some popular containers, including nextcloud, or even install full OS's in virtual machines to install software manually on them. It is a great first step, especially if you have limited access to hardware.

  • DE For Multi-Monitor Setup

    Jump

  • I dont have a DE reccomendation, but for gnome you can use the dash to panel extension for a KDE / Windows like taskbar that will sync pinned items across monitors. The multi monitor sync works pretty well on it.

  • It's time to move to Linux - YouTube

    Jump

  • It would completely eliminate the bios issue, would it not? It would prevent them from ever needing to enter the bios at all.

  • Google’s AI search results are already getting ads

    Jump

  • I've been pretty happy with Kagi (it's a paid search engine, though).

  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)

    Jump

  • I think we will have to agree to disagree. Figuring out the software store guis is so incredibly easy. Install button installs, search box searches. They are all the same. Dont need to know what an update button is doing, because average people wouldn't even know what is happening while doing it via terminal anyways.

    Searching is also 100x times easier in the guis. You dont have a million other packages match your search (ever try apt search chrome?)

    Though you are right, I had some bias with the man page bit. Average users wouldn't even know what man is, making it even harder for them. They would have to open a web browser, describe what they want to do somehow, and hope a copy pasted command does what they want.

  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)

    Jump

  • Thats just not true.. there are many very popular applications that are not in package managers

  • Can You Use Linux Without the Terminal? (How to Geek article)

    Jump

  • Sorry, but that doesn't really work. I can expand your terminal answer as much as you did the gui one. You have to open the terminal, use the man page for apt to find out how to search for a packages name, search for a package and hopefully find it, then you need to run another command with that package name to install it.

    Meanwhile, I can shorten the gui example to "It take me two seconds to use the search bar and click install"

    They all have their ups and downs, guis are just easier and more intuitive for people who don't live and breath terminal commands. Terminals can be extremely confusing for them, having never used one before.

  • XWayland 24.1 Released With Explicit Sync, Better Rootful Experience

    Jump

  • Ehhh, any time I try a new distro I realize after a half dozen apps dont work, that its because its using wayland by default. X11 just works, wayland is a mess.

  • Self-hosted Jellyfin CPU or GPU for 4K HDR transcoding?

    Jump

  • The 970 unfortunately doesn't have h265 hardware in it. The only gpu in that generation that does is the 960, as it was released later than the others and was one of the first to get h265. I ended up just getting a p400, and it's been rock solid.

  • Humans share the web equally with bots, report warns amid fears of ‘dead internet’

    Jump

  • There are chat groups with usenet? How does that work? I have only ever seen it used for downloading stuff.

  • Independent auditors confirm top VPN doesn't log your data

    Jump

  • How is that a clickbait title?? If this is clickbait, there is no possible title that wouldn't be..

  • Anyone running Zoraxy v3, the reverse proxy for networking noobs?

    Jump

  • Looks interesting! The ui looks miles ahead of NPM, so I might need to check it out

  • Looking for Cloud Storage Replacement, but I don't like NextCloud

    Jump

  • That looks really interesting! I will have to add it to my list to check out

  • This Week in Self-Hosted (15 March 2024)

    Jump

  • I use homepage currently. It is by far my favourite dashboard app, and i have given 5 or 6 of them a try before this.

    It's just so quick to load and simple to use. It's just a couple yaml files!

  • Ahh, gotcha. Last I saw it was called Windows Live Mail and was already just suuuper basic. I am kind of impressed they managed to make it worse haha

  • How to drop files from Android to home server?

    Jump

  • You could technically do this with Nextcloud, but that is definitely overkill just for a file drop.The next best thing I can think of for this would be localsend with auto accept enabled.
