  • After 1.5 years of learning selfhosting, this is where I'm at

    Jump

  • I see everyone else have already chimed in on whats so great about Caddy (because it is!), one thing that has been a thorn in my side though is the lack of integration of fail2ban since Caddy has moved on from the old common log format and moved on to more modern log formats. So if you want to use a IPS/IDS, you'll have to either find a creative hack to make it work with fail2ban or rely on more modern (and resource heavier) solutions such as crowdsec.

  • Does anyone have a .eu.org subdomain?

    Jump

  • This is what I use too, but with a disposable phone number and email.

  • Laptop companies: which one?

    Jump

  • Certain surface models run linux fine, but I wouldn't recommended it as a linux laptop as it requires solving several issues before you get a working computer.

  • Surface Laptop 3 running Kubuntu, such an improvement over what it was "designed" for.

    Jump

  • That is so awesome. Do you still have one lying around? Those things have an awesome form factor, but the I/O ports are a little bit dated by todays standard 😅

  • Surface Laptop 3 running Kubuntu, such an improvement over what it was "designed" for.

    Jump

  • Yes and no. Back then, you got the ROMs from a group / individual / forum and it wasn't very much vetted like a distro coming directly from the linux community / canonical / etc.

    Also, I can live without using surface pen (-: If you compare to Asahi and its maturity (a lot running, but not sound yet), LinuxSurface kernel have made a LOT of progress in making these devices even more usable compared to they handle Win11.

    Jump

  • Once the drivers got into the mainline kernel, running Linux on surface has been a dream. Except for using the pen, IR-cameras, booting from USB...

    I think there's enough of us to have a SurfaceLinux community here :-)

  • I had one of those too! Sturdy little guy, reminds me a bit of the first eeepc 701 :-) But I was worried about the replacement of the charger once it would die. Besides, I have had a bad experience of Surface-line longevity, they always seem to die suddenly after a while, so I sold it.

  • So SBCs are shit now? Anything I can do with my collection of Pis and old routers?

    Jump

  • Holy crap! I have a n100 SFF that consumes 5-6 w idle (with WiFi on) and I have an old i5 (gen 6 I think) that consumes 30 at idle. Your rig is defiantly not meant to act as a server (unless you want to mine bitcoons or run boinc...)

  • creating an alias of a command with plenty special characters

    Jump

  • OMG! I didn't even know about this, thanks! Will look into it, would be awesome to have ps command spit out things like I want them by default :-)

  • Thank you (and all others who replied), this worked flawlessly :-)

  • What's your favourite RSS reader for Linux?

    Jump

  • Ooo, fever API is now finally supported!

    Edit: feverAPI is also deprecated, I guess I'll just use the web version of my rss-app on mobile instead

  • Teams apparently can't call when using Firefox

    Jump

  • How does the flathub version perform? I noticed v2 can be run in the browser, and thought to give it a whirl in edge (under Linux, since it supports sync now).

  • Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Jump

  • The only practical thing they provide for me is slightly better readability, and eye candy (my prompt rely on them). I like my shells functional and pretty 😁

  • Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Jump

  • I don't care much for the terminal, but I noticed that I care a lot about my shell and the tools I use in it.

    And the prompt - can't live without my ASCII bling-blink.

  • Which terminal emulator do you use?

    Jump

  • Foot

    I was considering Foot, it is fast (renderwise and in interactive use) and the dev seems like an awesome person. But it doesn't support ligatures. I'll watch the issue and give it a shot when it's implemented.

  • All kinds of stuff. I use it when I need a way to structure my data:

    • I use it to keep track of software / libs that are of interest, what they are an alternative to. See example here: https://ibb.co/ncsdt0W
    • I've also tried to recreate the functionality of a personal relational management (a la MonicaHQ, or per this post: https://medium.com/@rklau/my-homegrown-personal-crm-87dffbcf54d7) but found it to be an overengineered solution.
    • I also used it to interact and store data through my python apps, to avoid dealing with it directly in python.
    • You can also use it as a Kanban board
    • Also, I've been trying to use it as an excel replacement - which is an overengineered solution but you get impeccable dataquality.

    Nocodb is a bit wonky, but it is quite easy to work with (front- and backend) and since everything is in the database format you choose - you're in control of how you want your data.

  • Your favorite linux projects for weekend

    Jump

  • There's so much you could do.

    • have a reverse proxy for your services, as containers
    • connect then through netbyrd or nebula if you want the FOSS route (or headacalescale)
    • set up an IDPS, such as fail2ban, snort, etc
    • Set up a backup job, there's many projects that does this well - check out Borg and kopia.
    • since we're on linux, try out different shells. Zsh or fish are pretty popular and pretty to look at.

  • I didn't really see the benefit of this besides having a snapshot or backup of my home folder for my use case (I don't have that many config/text files that needs tracking), but I can recommend chezmoi for those interested.

  • I've been using it for a while without any noticeable problems. What issues did you run into?
