Hallo, #hatclan!
In der vor uns liegenden 39. Kalenderwoche werde ich wieder am Montag, Mittwoch und Freitag, jeweils um 19:30 MESZ (17:30 UTC), jeweils für etwa drei Stunden, streamen.
Am Montag beenden wir vermutlich „Beyond: Two Souls”. Für den Rest der Woche steht dann das Wimmelbildspiel „Where Angels Cry 2: Tears of the Fallen” auf dem Plan.

I didn't tinker with my #linux laptop much for the last few months, and just found out several of the programs I use were changed/improved so much I might have to start configuring them over.

Are you in #tech and running your own #Fediverse instance? You might want to join an Activity Pub relay instance!

My relay at https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com has currently 139 instances connected, mostly tech related sharing the same mindset and interests like #Linux, #BSD, #Ansible, #Proxmox, #Coding, and many more! You can easily join from your instance when using #Pleroma, #snac (#snac2), #Mastodon and its forks 🙂

New video! I'm showing two (and a half) ways of getting the TL866 EPROM programmer to work in Linux.

#Linux #Poll

Manufacturers that have recently dumped #Linux on their consumer devices:

Amazon
Huawei
Xiaomi

Expect this list to grow.

Amazon's replacement for Linux is L4 in its new Vega OS. Think about that.... things must be very bad if they are citing performance and memory efficiency as the reasons to move from Linux to a #microkernel.

Next year (in the year 2026) I will have been using Linux for 30 years!

I first started using Linux in the year 1996.

⁂

I was both an IRIX and Solaris user before I was a Linux user.

Which is part of what attracted me to Linux — Linux was a Unix (like thing) I could run at home!

⁂

Another thing that attracted me to Linux was — I liked that I could see the Linux source-code.

Around that time I was learning how operating-systems worked from a computer-programming point-of-view

The Linux project continues.

Bonus learning: you'd think older machines would struggle, but I've seen no post-install h/w issues on my 13-year-old MacBook Pro: wifi, bluetooth, ethernet, screen, touchpad, keyboard, speakers...

I suspect age is a benefit to a point, the Linux community having had more time to solve things, subverting Apple's planned obsolescence and urge to sell more regardless of environmental impact.

Here's a pic to celebrate.

Batch Scan Photos With SANE's Scanimage On GNU/Linux Command Line

Turn a painful, time consuming and repetitive task of batch scanning photographs into a joyful one using SANE’s Scanimage on a GNU/Linux command line.

I need some #Linux touchers and #HomeLab gurus to explain in excruciating detail what I'm doing wrong.

I want my #JellyFin server to be served over HTTPS.

I had nginxproxymanager running, but it has stopped working with Let's Encrypt.

What's the *simplest* way to add HTTPS to #JellyFin? It's an Ubuntu box with the default Jellyfin installed (no Docker or anything complicated like that).

Informed speculation welcomed!

I've come to the conclusion that, while I am still using #Windows 11 out of inertia, it's time to contemplate an exit plan towards #Linux . The switch won't be any time soon (I have too much other stuff on my plate for the foreseeable future), but I do want to avoid paying further license fees to #Microsoft .

Major areas of concern:

- My #Steam library. I am by no means a heavy gamer, but I want to check if the major games I enjoy are known to work on Linux.
- Migrating away from #GoogleDrive towards #NextCloud is going to be a major chore, but it's something I can start in advance.
- I am a very heavy user of Notepad++ for my #TeXLaTeX typesetting, so I need a replacement whose user experience comes close (and no, neither vim nor emacs count).

As for what distribution to choose... I dunno. Lots of people at my place of work use #Debian , so maybe that would be a good idea?

Good morning Fedi friends! 🌈✨

Made it back to France and now I’m at my in laws’.

I forgot a wired keyboard at my parents’ in Italy and I only have a wireless keyboard and mouse with me, which were never paired to my Raspi. Mother-in-law came to my rescue and gave me an old wired mouse… and with #Ubuntu’s accessibility setting and on screen keyboard I was able to log in and connect my gear. Ouf!

Happy #Linux / #Raspi week to me (till I get home to Paris) 🐧

Now I had some powerful epiphanies yesterday, with my rickety Sharkey instance.

Sad to say that because it locked me out, and recovery codes aren’t working either, its fate is now sealed. I lost all trust in it and won’t spend any more precious time on it.

But this ONLY relates to my self-hosted Sharkey, which has been cursed from the start, not the software itself, which is WONDERFUL.

I’ll stop putting my energy on it and carry on with my plan (a quiet corner of the Fediverse) on @ruud’s calckey.world — which worked perfectly for me last year, when I was test driving Sharkey. Time to resurrect the account and set up monthly recurring donations.

Anyway, wishing you all a fantastic day!

#MySoCalledSudoLife 🚀

I was trying to show off my darling little Raspi to my extended family but nobody was impressed. So my #GratefulForYou nod today goes out to all my Fedi friends who enjoy and delight in this kind of stuff. And thank you for always teaching me new things 🥹

#Linux #SmallTech #RaspberryPi

I have to venture into #passkey land for something at work, so now I have two #yubikey devices on order.
I heard I need at least two ... Any other advice or best practices to keep in mind?
