Fucking love KDE dude. Plasma6 is my jam.

Just one more ai tool bro just one more.

Please bro its so good you gotta use them all to make it worth it.

"Window’s is built on many layers of shit and we dont know what will or won’t break things.

Also co pilot was really expensive"

Lmao that gave me a really good laugh. Its so real man, they just need your data so badly.

Yup, they say its free and open source, and here is the link to their github:

Me personally, I really liked using maptool. https://www.rptools.net/toolbox/maptool/

Its got a bit of a learning curve and doesnt look great, but it gets the job done and is Foss.

Took some digging but a reverse image search and a trip to r/pornomemes got a hit:

I actually just set up home assistant today and I personally like using a VM. Feels the most straight forward to me. I’m not a huge fan of docker, mostly cause it feels more complicated than it should be. Thats just me though. Either baremetal or in a VM is the way I like to do things, not just home assistant.

If you shoot me a message, I would be happy to help you out if I can, free of charge. I used to mod skyrim a lot and havnt done it on Linux yet, but I’d be willing to give it a go.

Thank you! Its been nothing but wonderful. Tbh, we thought there would be growing pains but surprisingly, it feels like we’ve always lived together.

i love reading stuff like this, repairing things is always so satisfying, if a little frustrating at times.

I used a cloudflare tunnel for streaming music in jellyfin. Didn’t so much else with it and it worked pretty well. Anything high bandwidth you should use something else, but for stuff that doesnt consume a ton of bandwidth like music streaming in my case, it worked fine, at least when I used it a few years back.

I agree with what others have said about using reaper. It really is a great DAW.

That said, a lot of good vst use stuff like ilok or other crap that makes it impossible or very difficult to use on Linux at least in my experience.

I made a windows box specifically for making music because its just way easier. Making music on Linux sucked for me due to crashing and the plugins I bought before I switched to Linux on my main machine.

Reaper should be fine for you, there are plenty of good Linux compatible VST but if you ever get “serious” about music production, Linux isnt quite there yet IMO. Windows would be my recommendation or if you can afford it, a Mac is good too from what ive heard.

I could be wrong but no remote refs refers to not finding a repo for what you are trying to install, so either the flathub repo isnt added which it sounds like it is, or the app you want isnt in that repo.

So you may need to add the repo for that app: https://fcitx-im.org/wiki/Install_Fcitx_5

Cost, privacy, and control.

No matter what happens to stuff outside my network, I have full control over my data and hardware, without paying someone for thiers.

I still haven’t set up my self hosting stuff yet, still moving things in with my girlfriend and unpacking but I’ll be using my mini PCs for home assistant, nextcloud, immich, and Jellyfin to start with. May set up some arr services as well but I kinda like to just pay for things to own them if I can.

It is times like this where I am thankful my cat is too fat and old to get on my desk lol.

I like the elitedesk PC for smaller services. My main reason being the power draw and or heat output. The ones I have and plan to use 60w of power which is pretty damn good for a whole computer.

Noise is another factor. Space saving is a plus, helps prevent ewaste since these are almost always refurbished. Its a good deal IMO.

And you can always buy or build a big honking PC or server for something else later on.

I use lawnchair, I like it. It does what I want it to do. I can use a theme for icons, make an app drawer, and put apps in folders.

Its got other features as well, but those are the ones I care about and use. My favorite part is that its on fdroid which was a major plus for me. I’m using GrapheneOS, but I’m trying to limit what apps I download from google play just for more peace of mind and compatibility.

As someone who also has ADHD, definitely agree. Lists are a good way to get things out of your head where its jumbled unto a format that your brain actually can use and process with less noise.

On my meds I can keep things together a lot better, but lists are still something I use all the time.

I’m on a pixel 8 with GrpaheneOS and was hoping not to have to worry until 2027 or whenever the updates end. I would hope the devs at least consider a few years of updates for pixels after they release a me wphone but I guess time will tell.
