My god Urban Dead, hadn’t thought about that in ages just had a flood of memories pop up

Would love a meetup replacement. It’s been hot garbage for a while. Not to mention a good portion of meetups in my city have died off since the pandemic :/

Genuinely did not know that, thanks

I use that exact stack. Bitwarden for 3 years Mullvad and Tuta for one. Can’t speak to their ethics or anything I wouldn’t know. But the quality of service has been great for me at least

What are your Homelab goals for 2025? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Actually have a decent backup system and data repetition

What is a good value gpu I can add to this desktop? It's running Blue Iris with Codproject AI in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I’m also curious. I have also heard good things this past year about AMD and ROCm. Obviously not as close to Nvidia yet (or maybe ever) but considering the price I’ve been considering trying.

Starting piece of gear you wish you got sooner? (Day Hikes) (lemmy.world)

Me and my wife are planing to do a lot of hiking and camping in 2025. Starting off with just the trails around Austin, TX and expanding as we go.

Got the basics:

  • Hiking Boots
  • light day pack w/ bladder
  • simple first aid kit
  • downloaded maps

I used to go all the time when I lived near a trail head, but I would never go much further than 4 miles in before turning around. We won’t be that far from civilization most of the time, nothing too intense.

Thanks y’all!

Edit: thank for the advice y’all!!

Can’t believe I forgot hats, definitely picking up some. Will also pack my leatherman too.

And I agree hiking boots are probably a little overkill for most the trails we’ll be doing at first. But we want to get used to them and break them in for longer and rougher hikes we’re planning later this year.

Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Exactly what I do and works like a dream. Had a VPS and nginx to proxy domain to it but got rid of it because I really had no use for it, the Tailscale method worked so well.

Nostalgic Distros? (lemmy.world)
 

I tired Linux a few times in the past, but didn’t really start using seriously until 2019. I love poking around old OSs and distros, and I want to spin a few up in some VMs my next free evening.

Any suggestions? Open to any distro (or let’s be honest, DE). Any versions that holds a special place in your heart or that’s exceptionally novel? Really interested to see what’s out there!

What is/was your distrohopping journey? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] OpossumOnKeyboard@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Windows->Mac->Ubuntu->Fedora->Arch->openSUSE->and finally Debian when bookworm released and I’ve been very happy with it, plan on staying for the foreseeable future.

Still dual boot windows (with no Microsoft account connected) for gaming. But I don’t game nearly as much as I used to and when I do I don’t want to worry about anything working, I just want to ply with friends. Though from what I hear gaming on Linux is getting better all the time.

I’m so tired of seeing his clickbait thumbnails on here all the time

KRunner vs Application Launcher (use cases?) in c/kde@lemmy.kde.social
[–] OpossumOnKeyboard@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Think it’s mainly just preference. I prefer krunner since it feels closer to raycast when I was on Mac, then when I switched to Linux as my daily driver, runner just felt natural. (Tried out Alfred for a bit but krunner did everything I personally needed)

Neat! I’ve been meaning to pick up Go so I might try this out for that. Not 100% sure how I feel about the AI art but I’m pretty biased against it so I’ll try to give it a fair shake.

Ubuntu Touch OS on OnePlus 6T: is it a viable Android alternative? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] OpossumOnKeyboard@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (2 children)

As already mentioned, postmarketOS is probably closest to what you want for an open source android replacement, though it’s still not 100% there if you’re looking for a perfect alternative.

Personally I’m going to try it out as a daily driver when I can get a cheap pixel 8 when the 9 comes out later this year
