last few times I tried this year the fedora kde installer had no issues with the partitioning

I think people are assuming you want to convert people to The Church of Docker, in their minds, if you know what I mean. I do not see it that way, but “what is stopping you from using virtualization” has such a tone as if everyone is supposed to virtualize, but something prevents them and they can’t.

I think a better way to ask it would be “what are your reasons for sticking with bare metal?” or something like that.

sidenote: to me it seems some people here have quite bad experiences with docker. I mean it has parts I don’t like either, but I never had so many problems with it and I’m hosting a dozen of web services locally. maybe their experience was from the early days?

what do you run for RSS?

also, I hope you are not doing backups by dding an in use filesystem

I think this is like sepi’s response but less polite

they can, but you sure will know something happened and you can take precautions, like encrypting the drives

what do you do with a laptop that has 4 GB ram and a HDD of the slower kind? xfce is not really more memory efficient than plasma.

I prefer local for privacy. probably hetzner doesn’t look into your belongings, but if police comes knocking because so you said something mean to certain someones, you may not even know your data was stolen. you don’t need to be an activist for it to happen.

you can also keep backups there. and its accessible without internet.

a very specific feature, so you should open a feature request at the repos of the jellyfin audio players that you mostly like, probably the devs didn’t even consider it yet

not really. share it over a ducking vpn, done.

its often a bug, because the clients who have the keys don’t know they should retry sending.

but also it’s all been fixed a year ago as I know. I don’t usually use dm rooms and public ones are not encrypted, so I wouldn’t know if I didn’t read about it.

matthew the ceo addressed aot of the criticisms recently, check it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OyuqM7RbX5E

other than that, push notifications work fine for me with Ntfy. but as I heard matrix.org hs users have problems, possibly because of serverside firewall issues, investigation is stuck somehow

definetly report the problem. there’s a function for it in the app, 3 points menu on the chat list menu, use it after making those errors show up. tick the contact me box. ceo recommends to also notify himself directly: https://gist.github.com/ara4n/190ad712965d0f06e17f508d1a45b554

afaik those errors can’t really be solved by users. I mean other than using an up to date client and server.

ah yeah, I’m always dancing when hacking gov systems

a little correction: its not VLC that misses the codec, but the distribution. most distros dont risk distributing hardware acceleration drivers for h264 and a few others because of patents

that’s strange, what filesystem was that? windows cannot handle linux filesystems, by itself.

wasn’t that /boot/efi? if so windows uses that too, it’s a designated fat32 partition for uefi bootables.

or: initiate lockdown protocol

but it is sensitive data. the webserver can send executable code to the web browser. if it does not that doesn’t matter, what matters is that it can be inserted by a middleman. It’s not like there’s a dedicated person needed to do that, it can just happen automatically.

delayed retry of failed operation. most of the times it works for the 3rd try…

shit I’m not young anymore!

almost like half leg in my grave…
