  • So you want to be able to stream Gimp and have a shared drive with your PC’s sheets, it needs to be open source and with no limitations?

    I’d just do gimp+Discord+google docs, but if you want it to be open source and all-in-one then go checkout Nextcloud. I think that’s as free as you get, if even foundry is too limiting.










  • Du skriver det, med at finde den politikker man er mest enig med, som om man kan stole 100% på alle politikkere. Min erfaring er, at dette ikke er tilfældet, og de fleste faktisk bare siger hvad der skal til for at få flest stemmer, for derefter alligevel at gøre vhadend de måtte have lyst til.

    Det ville være rart, hvis der fandtes en database, hvor man kunne se hvad den enkelte politiker lovede, og hvad de stemte da de havde muligheden. Og jeg ville ikke være striks imod selv at beygge denne, hvis bare jeg kunne finde den relevante information i et nogenlunde brugbart format.

    Det er i virkeligheden ikke så anderledes end med de blanke stemmer, hvor man i sidste ende heller ikke har noget reelt at være med til at bestemme.

    Naturligvis kan man så sige, at mens en blank stemme har samme værdi(løshed) som en stemme på en kandidat, så kan man altid prøve sig frem med borgerforslag. Dette skal dog i sidste ende igennem politikkerne.

    Jeg stemmer for demokratiet, men imod korruption og inkompetance. At disse stemmer ikke bliver talt, ser jeg som et problem med systemet - og ikke vælgerne.

    Now you’re introducing potential energy (a hill), which will be used up (or rather be fully converted to kinetic energy) once you reach the bottom, and you’re going to need the same or more energy to go up that same hill again (depending if you take resistance into account).

    We already have tech for capturing kinetic energy for later in the same battery used for driving called “Regenerative braking” (cuz’ the motor is used as a generator in place of brakes, and you’ll need to drive said generator by capturing/braking some of your kinetic energy/forward motion).

    EDIT: In other words: You could just start on a really high hill and you’d be able to use the weight of the bike and yourself as a “battery”, never needing any actual battery/motors/wiring/etc.


  • According to this sub? Yup, most definitely! According to my own opinion? As long as you use it responsibly and limited to the scope of LLM (scope, as in: whatever one would usually use a Random Text Generator for, aka. inspiration, non-critical parsing, and mass spam attacks), then go ahead.

    This sub appears to be barking up the wrong tree most of the time anyway (just look at the name), so I wouldn’t value anything that is posted here too high, ironically.


  • Yup, bought a bunch of TP-Link mesh towers. Turns out that they take down the whole WiFi when the main node looses internet connection. That’s just not acceptable, I might have an unstable internet connection but still want access to my local devices, such as my streaming server or router.

    On that node, does anyone know of a brand of mesh towers that can survive unstable/no internet connections and don’t use custom firmware? DD-WRT works just fine, but I’m not gonna flash custom firmware onto friends’ devices.




  • I’m not entirely sure how “… don’t need anything near as memory efficient as Alpine” became “Debian is obviously superior to Alpine”.

    … I was referencing systemd and familiarity of use in regard to OP. Debian just happened to be mentioned, it comes per default with systemd, and it’s my personal first choice for servers. Though, taking context into account, OP did say they originally came from Ubuntu and made it sound like they were trying to optimize their system since it “only” had 4(8)GB memory in total.

    I do believe Debian with systemd is more similar to Ubuntu than Alpine is to Ubuntu. My point was not so much about Debian vs Alpine in general as it was specific to efficiency in regard to memory usage, with the sole reason to change to Alpine over Debian (or any OS which uses systemd, really) purely for memory savings being rather weak when systemd only uses some <50MB in memory, the computer has 4GB+ of it, and the user already is familiar with Debian-based flavors which use systemd.

    So no, Debian is obviously not “obviously superior to Alpine”, just as systemd isn’t too heavy to run on computers with 4GB of RAM - unless you’re trying to push the computer to its limits.
