Heh. We’ve convinced our kids that Paw Patrol and Cocomelon “don’t work on our TV”. All I had to do was let her select it a few times and then kill the network connection when she wasn’t looking. After that, we marked them as “disliked” in Netflix and now they never appear.
It may not last, but I’m doing what I can :-)
Snowfl has some pretty good results (note the addition of the keyword complete
). But you can do a lot better than Paw Patrol! “Bluey”, “The Owl House”, “Hilda”, and “Kipo and the age of the Wonderbeasts” are all far better choices for kids and your own sanity ;-)
Mozilla’s VPN is just reselling Mullvad, so you can support Mozilla and use Mullvad at the same time if you like.
You might want to consider just Dockerising everything. That way, the underlying OS really doesn’t matter to the applications running.
I’ve got a few Raspberry Pi’s running Debian, and on top of that, they’re running a kubernetes cluster with K3s. I host a bunch of different services, all in their own containers (effectively their own OS) and I don’t have to care. If I want to change the underlying OS, the containers don’t know either. It’s pretty great.
What about blog spam though? Surely this would relinquish controls like moderation for your site?
Ahh, yeah that’s about what I remember. Too messy for me. This sounds like it’d be better as an actual package (apt/pacman) then.
Well that looks promising. Last time I looked into it, I was put off by a shell script that called sudo, but if it’s bound to a Flatpak, I can work with that.
I did just that. It’s not about security. It’s about messing with my machine’s setup. I don’t want to run a bunch of rando commands that might mess with how my actual package manager manages my system.
Oh really? Boo.
Retrodeck looks good, but the recommended install instructions were just too nutty for me: curl https://... | bash
is not ok.
I think Emudeck is available as a Flatpak, so you should be able to install it on your desktop too.
There have been some great answers on this so far, but I want to highlight my favourite part of Docker: the disposability.
When you have a running Docker container, you can hop in, fuck about with files, break stuff as you try to figure something out, and then kill the container and all of the mess you’ve created is gone. Now tweak your config and spin up a fresh one exactly the way you need it.
You’ve been running a service for 6 months and there’s a new upgrade. Delete your instance and just start up the new one. Worried that there might be some cruft left over from before? Don’t be! Every new instance is a clean slate. Regular, reproducible deployments are the norm now.
As a developer it’s even better: the thing you develop locally is identical to the thing that’s built, tested, and deployed in CI.
I <3 Docker!
yt-dlp might be able to do the job. It has options for you to specify credentials too.
Upon a cursory read, it sounds like you host a server and then relay all of your data through their centrally controlled system all while also pushing your account data to them.
I’m not sure they understand what “federated” means. Or rather, they know, but they’re hoping we don’t care.
Aww! Thank you! It was fun ❤️
It’s funny, before this, I was just going to buy a legit copy and play it on my Deck (I have a Switch, but prefer the Deck)
Now, fuck those guys. If I play at all, it’ll be on a pirated copy.
Thanks! The crazy thing is that it’s really not that complicated. I’d say the hardest work was in writing the docs :-). It’s awesome to hear that people still use it and love it though.
Actually, I stepped away from the project 'cause I stopped using it altogether. I started the project to satisfy the British government with their ridiculous requirements for proof of my relationship with my wife so I could live here. Once I was settled though and didn’t need to be able to bring up flight itineraries from 5 years ago, it stopped being something I needed.
Well that, and lemme tell you, maintaining a popular Free software project is HARD. Everyone has an idea of where stuff should go, but most of the contributions come in piecemeal, so you’re left mostly acting as the one trying to wrangle different styles and architectures into something cohesive… while you’re also holding down a day job. It was stressful to say the least, and with a kid on the way, something had to give.
But every once in a while I consider installing paperless-ngx just to see how it’s come along, and how much has changed. I’m absolutely delighted that it’s been running and growing in my absence, and from the screenshots alone, I see that a lot of the ideas people had when I was helming made it in in the end.
Nebula might be the answer for you. A low annual fee means every video you watch gives a portion of that fee to the artist.
