@greedytacothief @AmbiguousProps How does Finamp compare?

@zutto @warlaan Searching about, this was Plex banning the use of Plex on Hetzner’s IP block, right? Not a decision made by Hetzner?

@Moneo @SigHunter Networking came to be when there were lots of different implementations of a ‘byte’. The PDP-10 was prevalent at the time the internet was being developed for example, which supported variable byte lengths of up to 36-bits per byte.

Network protocols had to support every device regardless of its byte size, so protocol specifications settled on bits as the lowest common unit size, while referring to 8-bit fields as ‘octets’ before 8-bit became the de facto standard byte length.

@madcaesar @otl It’s a small server running OpenBSD, configured to operate as a router and/or firewall.

Linux and the *BSDs can operate as very good routers and firewalls, usually being much more configurable and enabling you to do more complex than off-the-shelf consumer-level hardware routers. Using them on a small form factor computer with a cheap switch in front of them can give you a better performing and nicer to use alternative.

@squidspinachfootball @marcos Syncthing syncs. It does one way syncs, but if your workflow is complex and depends on one way syncs that’s probably not what you want.

Sync things between operational systems, then replicate to nonoperational systems, and backup to off site segregated systems.

@cinaed666 @twotone I also have the Forerunner 55.

Something to note is that Garmin watches are Linux-friendly and can be used without signing up to their cloud services. You can access the watch as a USB storage device and manually grab the .FIT files on it, which you can then import into tools of your choice (or convert to .GPX for wider compatibility).

@rainpoint @RealAccountNameHere Their venture investment has dried up after they used their last round of ~$250m to more than double their workforce in less than two years in a drive to capitalise on crypto shit. Now they’ve had their valuation roughly halved and are left in a really tricky position, desperately needing to monetise to survive.

Spez was chasing an IPO in all the ways you’d expect of a modern techbro, completely misreading the NFT craze and the impact of enshittification.

@TheColonel @TimTheEnchanter 17 years ago is pretty much exactly when reddit became accessible. You were there from the very beginning.

I’ve been there for 14 years, and this kerfuffle has killed all enthusiasm I had for staying. I’ve switched to using reddit’s RSS feeds for the few subs I can’t give up yet (mainly those related to the Ukraine war) but I expect I’ll stop using it altogether in short order.

On the plus side, it’s furthered my deep distrust of big tech companies.

@MonkCanatella Oh, this looks good!

My current solution is VSCode with Dendron and Excalidraw self-hosted using coder.com’s code-server. It’s not perfect, but fits well enough for me as a knowledge management system.

If someone repackages AnyType as a web app I can self-host in a similar way, I’ll be over the moon.

@MigratingtoLemmy @poVoq exactly what a bot would say 🤔

@railsdev @innercitadel Do you not write your web apps in assembler…?

@sambal @kat I do the same with AWS Glacier. Rclone’s crypt module is magic.

I’d prefer to not use Amazon or any of the other tech giants but nowhere else has a comparable or comparably priced equivalent to Glacier.

@grizz Relay’s doing the same. I think some of the less popular apps like these can feasibly give the new API pricing a go.

I think the proposition has changed significantly for me though. I liked and supported these apps for a long time, but I’m not using them as vehicle through which to effectively subscribe to reddit.
