  • Stop Treating Phone Numbers As A Digital ID

    Jump

  • Personally I use mailbox.org, it's not free, but you are not the product

  • Shared grocery list suggestions?

    Jump

  • Same here, Keep also let's you tab in items, so we have it sorted by isle too. Makes shopping so much easier

  • There are sane people with this many VMs on a personal machine, right? RIGHT?

    Jump

  • LXC is much more light weight than VMs, so it's not as much overhead. I've done it this way in case I need to reboot a container (or something goes wrong with an update) without disrupting the other services

    Also keeps it consistent since I have some services that don't run in docker. One service per LXC

  • There are sane people with this many VMs on a personal machine, right? RIGHT?

    Jump

  • I run a different LXC on Proxmox for every service, so it's a bunch. Probably a better way to do it since most of those just run a docker container inside them.

  • What browser do yall use?

    Jump

  • Vast majority of sites work for me (librewolf), but for the few that don't I also have Vivaldi installed

  • Bringing attention to a music player and two eBook readers for Android

    Jump

  • Both of these are on f-droid

    My favorite e-reader is Cool Reader(granted, it was last updated 3 years ago)

    My favorite music player is innerTune (however that is more for playing YouTube vids as music)

  • What Linux distro surprised you the most?

    Jump

  • Second impression of Garuda (Arch based). My first impression was the dragonized version, which is KDE with lots of mods to make it Mac like, but with extra window animations.

    I like things simple, so when I tried Garuda again, I installed the Gnome version. Other than some weirdness getting my Nvidia card working with Wayland, it has run better than anything else on my laptop.

  • Is Linux (dumb)user friendly yet?

    Jump

  • Fully agree with this. There will be a slight learning curve since it will be different from what your used to, but it's friendly enough to figure out.

    If you know the windows program you want to use just search something like "Linux alternative for x" (sometimes there is specific KDE or Gnome progs)

  • Freetube is the best way to watch YouTube

    Jump

  • Invidious is awesome, if possible, self hosting one in docker is great and keeps it up to date

  • Project Kuiper: Amazon's answer to SpaceX's Starlink passes 'crucial' test

    Jump

  • Call me a socialist, but the moment the tech was proven either the US or some UN based org should have eminent domained and brought Starlink.

    That way there wouldn't be multiple companies sending tens of thousands of satellites into space. And hypothetically there would be a greater expectation of equal access. Oh and access wouldn't be at the whim of a pretty billionaire.

  • Ha, I did the same thing. Was getting really tired of pip issues and attempting to use pyenv and messing up a lot. Figured I'd start clean.

    Didn't realize so much depended on python and ended up needing to rebuild the whole thing.

    Now I don't mess with python on my host and only use VMs for Dev or messing around.

  • [SOLVED] Can't access drive on linux/windows dual boot

    Jump

  • This was my problem, it's enabled by default, so double check that

  • Return Generic Type in Rust

    Jump

  • SOLUTION:

    Here is the solution I came up with:

     rust
        
pub struct Configuration {}

impl Configuration {
    fn get std::str::FromStr>() -> Result {
        Ok(T::from_str("1234");
    }
}

fn main() {
    let my_conf_val = Configuration::get();
}

  • Return Generic Type in Rust

    Jump

  • Afraid this might have been the case, if Ogeon's suggestion doesn't work out, I'll probably end up with multiple getters, one per type. There aren't that many anyway

    Thank you!

  • Return Generic Type in Rust

    Jump

  • Correct, I would want the caller to know what they're getting, I'll see if this works, Thank you!

  • What are some modern bullshit jobs?

    Jump

  • Yes! It shouldn't be difficult to purchase a house, but when we were looking, none of the seller agents would even talk to us until we had a buyers agent 🙄

  • Linux way way slower than Windows?

    Jump

  • Any Ubuntu affiliated distro is required to use snaps, so Kubuntu will use them. Startup times are terrible, but running performance should be the same.

    Another simple distro to try would be either Mint or Pop-OS. Both are still Ubuntu based, but without snaps

    Mint's interface (Cinnamon) is similar to Windows, Pop-OS uses a modified GNome

  • Is there a Linux based OS for public computers, such as at a library or a PC cafe?

    Jump

  • I'm not sure of exactly how they manage everything, but my county library system uses Debian with an XFCE interface.

    Not sure if it's because it's been this way long enough now, or it just looks close enough to Windows, but I haven't known anyone to complain (and my in-laws complain about everything else)

    What’s everyone doing about viewing YouTube?

    Jump

  • Self hoster of Invidious, I've just setup a docker instance with a Watchtower docker container running too for auto updates. No real maintenance needed.

    NewPipe on Android

    There are definitely times where things will stop working for a bit (due to Google shananagans) but the devs seem on top of it. So it doesn't take too long before it's working again.
