+1 on Grayjay. Also Tubular. FreeTube on PC and SmartTube on TV.

It makes me very happy to see corporate assholes going at each other's throats.

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 day ago

Exactly. And my wife wonders why I avoid people as much as possible, specially the normies in my family 🤮

This is an epic suggestion.

I am a (very weird) christian, and I approve this message.

Of course. Otherwise you're racist, islamophobic, transphobic (you know, because of the trans-fat, i guess), republican, democrat, fascist, communist, ignorant, insensitive, probably a nazzi, certainly satanic, a lawyer, a doctor and a politician. Add to the list a conspiracy theorist and a nerd. But if you tolerate it, well, you're tolerant, a great human being and an all-together great human being.

Fuck me, I need the to get the fuck off of this piece of shit planet.

I don't need any of the games mentioned, but wanted to mention that you are the material heroes are made of. God bless you. This world needs more people like you.

This is indeed sad news. I'll forever be grateful to him. He made the door that got me through into Proxmox. God rest his soul.

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 days ago

Glad that worked for you. Enjoy.

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

On what exactly?

[–] jjlinux@lemmy.ml 6 points 3 days ago

Precisely my point. That's the smart stand in my opinion.

Worse was the fact that the entire video felt like they were shilling for Graphene OS; which is known to have a slightly unfriendly maintainer and community surrounding him to say the least.

Correction, the developers, not the community, are flat out pricks (not "slightly unfriendly"), but this does nothing to remove how amazing the OS is for anyone wanting to remove themselves from all the mainstream garbage in the mobile devices scenario while being able to keep productivity with a few workarounds.

Out of personal experience; I'd actually rate a proper Lineage OS install of 4 whole Android versions ago to be more private than stock. Not quite as private as Graphene; but not quite as invasive and much more enforcing of privacy. The debloating provided by a clean AOSP-like ROM, such as Lineage, as opposed to a "Stock Android" configuration from a major OEM is stark.

You will see me speak about Grapheme as if it was the Holly grail of mobile OSs, and that is because I actually move between CalyxOS, stock android, grapheme and Lineage every few months, and the fact remains that you have less than half of the control on your privacy you can get on anything other than Graphene. Additionally, show me one mobile OS that has less bloat then Graphene.

Every time I see posts slamming GrapheneOS over the toxic community (which it is not) or the devs (who are extremely toxic in my opinion), all I see is butthurt overly a sensitive individuals that are looking at the wrong thing. GrapheneOS is what Android should be, it's that simple. All these rants about how toxic x or y is only serves to keep people starting in the privacy or security (or both) path away from what is effectively a huge leap from being invaded and helpless in the current tech and surveillance scenario to having near-complete control over their digital lives.

This is just a post about satisfaction. After years of using Linux exclusively, I was going over my Feeder just now, and just figured that I automatically dismiss anything containing the words "Microsoft" or "Windows" in it.

This made me realize how much better we Linux users actually have it.

Anyway, that's all this is about.

I want to use Radicale and do away with Joplin altogether. I finally understand JTX + Davx5 enough to be able to change my workflow to that. Now, I have around 400+ notes in Joplin. Is there any way to migrate from Markdown to ICS? So far I've only seen the option of an MD table to ICS, but I don't even know how to turn all those .md files into one markdown table.

Has any of you tried something similar before?

 

I didn't know where else to go, so if this is not the place, please let me know and I'll delete this.

I'm ready to port over to JMP.chat, and was wondering if anyone could share a referral link/code for me to avoid the 15 dollars activation of the number. I would really appreciate it.

I'm entertaining the idea of starting a digital privacy and security blog. As a matter of fact, I am self hosting it right now, but mainly for friends, family and acquaintances. It's super basic, more rants than articles honestly, 🤣

Since the only 2 social networks I have are Lemmy and Mastodon, I've been avoiding allowing sharing to Facebook, Twitter and other mainstream SNs.

My wife thinks I should just host it on a cloud and share it everywhere with the argument of, and I quote, "the platforms you use are already full of people as paranoid as you. If you really want to bring your knowledge and experience to others, you should allow us to share to the platforms full of people oblivious to the dangers you constantly slam us with" (which is absolutely true. I'm a thorn on their side, lol.

What do you guys think? Should I add features to share to those places? Would you if it was you? Under no circumstances will I post on any of them, and if I allow to share from my blog, my inner circle would be the one doing the sharing.

I do want to help spread our gospel, but I think that most people in those platforms are just to far gone to even care. I don't even know what to think anymore. I've only written 2 articles so far anyway, so it's not like I'd be the New York Times of privacy or anything.

 

This is absolutely ridiculous. Imagine some fuckers just coming into your room while you're with your SO making love or something.

 

If you are having issues with Mullvad in Linux (Flatpak) and getting a message along the lines of ""Your profile 'MullvadBrowser' could not be loaded"", it's a known bug and the only workaround right now is to use the test version:

flatpak install --user https://dl.flathub.org/build-repo/112221/net.mullvad.MullvadBrowser.flatpakref

I just got this email from Sony. My kids use their profiles offline (meaning they don't even have a playstation account) on their PS4, and use my games. And now they want to allow kids to link their other accounts (my kids only have a SimpleX user to chat with their family, LOL).

The sad thing is that a lot of parents will go: "Nice, they can now have it all in one place!"

Love how they say this at the end:

Stay tuned for more details. In the meantime, we recommend talking to your child about account linking so that they can safely enjoy these new features while playing on PlayStation.

They fucking call these FEATURES!

 

I just love this guy when he's riled up. Makes me feel all warm and cozy 🤣

 

This may end up being a bit convoluted, so I will do my best to keep it as short as possible and to the point.

I have a US number with Google Fi, have had it for about 8 years.

This is the only reason why I still maintain that one Google account. The benefit is that I only use it when I am in the United States, and when I'm not, I just pause the service and don't get charged.

However, I feel the string need to completely eliminate Google from my life permanently.

Does anyone know of a service similar to this one? It can be an MVNO or VOIP for my phone, and I would like to port my number as well. I found "phoner", but I can't pause the service, so I would be stuck paying a bill I don't use as much or loosing my number.

If the service is private (not to be confused with anonymous, of course) even better.

 

I have a trusty UnRaid server that has been running great for almost 3 years now, with some kinks and headaches here and there, but mostly very stable. Now I'm entertaining the idea of setting that box up with ProxMox, and running UnRaid virtualized. The reason being that I want to use UnRaid exclusively as a NAS and then run all dockers and VMs on ProxMox (at least that's how I'm picturing it). I would like to know your opinion on this idea. All I have is Nextcloud, Immich, Vaultwarden, Jellyfin, Calibre, Kavita and a Windows VM I use to update some hardware every now and then. I mainly want to do that for the backup capabilities in ProxMox for each instance. Storage is not a concern, and I have 64GB of ECC Ram running in that box. What are the Pros and Cons, or is it even worth it to move all this to ProxMox?

 

I need some help figuring out how to install all the DKMS drivers, and firmware manager, firmware daemon, etc on Silverblue.

It's easy on Fedora but I haven't found a single instance explaining how to do it in a Fedora atomic distro.

These are the instructions for Fedora.

So, apparently for no reason, my Voyager app started crashing this morning whenever I touched any of the replies to my comments.

I tried with and without VPN, custom DNS, automatic DNS, Rethink enabled and disabled, and it just keeps crashing.

Yes, I cleared data, un-installed and reinstalled, and it is still happening.

Anyone else having this issue? I thought I'd ask here first before opening a bug report on Github.

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm on version 2.8.0 from Github.

Edit 2: Available version from F-Droid, 2.6.0, does not preset this issue.

Edit 3: Finally got to reporting it. Sorry for the delay.
