Ventoy with all the distro LiveUSB images you want to try on it. You should be able to configure them as if they’re installed, unless you have to reboot. If your issues are hardware based, you’ll have a tough time doing anything useful on VMs. If you find you have to reboot to do anything, you’re probably going to want to actually install it. But you should get an idea of how things will go with a distro by doing this.

That just saved me a lengthy troubleshoot with the wife while I’m on the road, she was texting me to say Kodi wasn’t giving her sources when your message showed up on my Lemmy client.

Thank you, good timing.

Mint isn’t the platform for gaming on Linux. It’s way behind on a lot of things like display drivers. Try something like Bazzite or Nobara that have a ton of tweaks for both Nvidia and steam. Honestly, I’m really shying away from recommending Mint to new users, it’s getting really stale.

Honestly lil bro, you lack emotional intelligence.

That was the personal insult. It was unnecessary and I’m not sure why you figure you needed to say that.

I looked at Stalwart and was intrigued by it being implemented in Rust. I’m not sure if I backed away because at the time I’d have had to give up a webui for configuring it, because that would have felt like a step back in ease of use. But it sounds like there is one now.

I’ve used Mailcow-dockerized for about five years now and it’s been super low maintenance and I think they test their updates very well because I’ve never had a problem. I’ve added Roundcube webmail to it, but their instructions for adding that are very easy to follow. It uses all the standard backend under the hood so I find that comforting as that’s the stack I’ve used for 25 years anyway, I just wanted an easier way to maintain and update it and Mailcow fits the bill.

I used Arch for a decade before Manjaro, and I was under no misapprehension that the AUR was anything except a collection of community package builds of wildly disparate maintenance levels, with some very popular packages waiting weeks or months for updates.

If anything, the AUR got more stable in my experience when I moved to Manjaro. If you’re thinking there is any quality control and/or support keeping anything in there consistent, then you’re a bloody fool.

Making soup from scratch is not what I’m referring to. Heating up a can of soup is the same as heating up a can of beans. You can make either from scratch, and that’s actual cooking though.

So good on you, I hope your soup rocks. I have a friend that loves experimenting on me with soups and I love most of them. So good.

Well, I’ve probably get 25 computer-years of it running fine, so how about you recommend what works for you and continue shitting on the hard work of others, and I’ll recommend what I damn well please.

I ran more than a few Manjaro installations for myself and family, and still do. Despite what others say, I’ve had very, very little problems with it and maintenance has been low, users just run Octopi every once in a while and it just works.

I’ve since moved my own systems to Fedora because I just find it more useful for development, but I would still use it over vanilla Arch, which I ran for almost a decade before Manjaro. Can’t really speak to Endeavor, but as far as I know it’s basically bleeding edge Arch with the ups and downs that implies.

And whatever the stupid shit the Manjaro team has perpetrated over the years, they’ve still built a solid distro.

Blue Iris will use pretty Much any cameras including Ubiquiti, has a mobile app for viewing and alerts, and has self hosted AI object recognition using code project. Its entirely off the grid if you want it to be. I know it just saves to folders that you could backup, but it will also do ftp, etc out of the box

How much can a banana cost, Michael? Ten dollars?

Beans on toast is like crackers with soup.

Not cooking.

Non-Fungible Tokens?

Yah, it’s just a hobby for you, but it’s also a hobby for script kiddies to use Shodan to find people with out of date web interfaces and pop them. I tell you right now, the Immich team would be the first to say not to put their application publicly accessible.

Just don’t get into this practice, it ends in tears and is way more maintenance to stay protected than just setting up tailscale and using that.

There should be an option in your phone VPN setup to reconnect if app X is being used.

Often, ridiculous and onerous procedural security is hiding massively incompetent actual software security or is used to constrain people from discovering security by obscurity holes. Everything I’ve done in government interfacing as a vendor would seem to confirm this, at least back when I was doing it a few years ago. You’d be hard pressed to convince me it’s changed much since.

It’s not Nix-specific, but I use Mailcow-dockerized and it is completely hassle-free, been using it for 4 or 5 years now without a bobble (though I’ve run my own mailserver for 30 years).

I would agree that a static IP is necessary, but I don’t have one and I get by, even without a PTR record. That’s probably due to a fairly small ISP with not many spammers having found it.

Make sure you set up your DKIM and DMARC right from the start and pay heed to the reports. But I’ve never had to fight to get off a blacklist, even with new domains I’ve added to it.

Was it 4? I thought it came around for the 5 release. I think I switched DEs for almost the entire 4 debacle then switched back at 5 when it stopped sucking.

Edit: NM, I see I just missed it by skipping 4: https://dot.kde.org/2009/11/24/repositioning-kde-brand/
