  • Nobody is addressing tailscale so far, so I’ll throw my two cents in: I have tailscale on my phone and my laptop, and I have a bunch of stuff running at home, and they all act like they’re on the same network as long as I’m logged in. There are a lot of alternatives out there, but I find it quite useful. I have immich for my pictures and pihole for ad blocking using docker. The basic docker tutorials are worth following. All I really use is docker ps, docker image docker compose up (-d), docker pull. Nano to edit the yaml files I find online. Unhacked so far!




  • I run a Pi400 every now and then… It’s not setting any speed records, and starts to lag out after 10 tabs, but it runs all day on an external phone battery. There’s the odd app that nobody bothered porting to ARM, but I have more trouble with Arm Windows than Arm Linux.

    I had a pinebook 1080p, same exact experience. Fine, not fantastic, good battery life. It keeled over and died after a year though.





  • I’m a meatietarian. I love a good burger. I do, however, also love planet Earth. My first impossible burger experiment was awful. The restaurant didn’t cook the damn thing! Was like, “Well, that was a disappointment!” Several years later, A&W had a deal on their veggie burger, and it was great! (A&W Canada, so don’t complain to me if they run it in the States.) Ask me to switch to those burgers in exchange for not dying of heat death or mass fire in the next five to ten? Yeah, sold.




  • If you’re using mint and can’t find help with a specific problem online, mint is really closely related to Ubuntu. So, hypothetically, “Wifi issues Ubuntu” might give you help where “Wifi issues mint” comes up empty. Also, if you dual boot, turn off fast start-up on the windows side. It messes things up.
