I learned how to use a computer basically all by myself. Been using computers in some way or since I was 5 or smth like that and I can't really say that it "clicked". I just got gradually better at it, because I was (and still am) a huge nerd.

Is Linux (dumb)user friendly yet? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Depends on the distribution. And how used you are to windows.

Imo, for the easiest possible experience, choose fedora and use it sorta like desktop android.

The mods are actual humans, not bots with no life who scroll reddit all day. It's free, doesn't track my data and can be used without an app on mobile...

I'd choose the 8 guys from 25 to 35. We might even get a beer along the way.

NAS / NAS + server? Unraid, Proxmox, Intel, AMD? Looking for guidance. in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

I'm biased towards TrueNAS scale, because in my experience, it's been really rock solid, running on bare metal. It also allows you to setup things like Nextcloud/Tailscale/ a lot more, in 1 click from their "app store". It's also got all the virtualization bells and whistles. As for ZFS, again, just like everything else, it's been rock solid and setting up a ZFS pool is pretty much done for you when you install TN Scale.

As for remote access, I've always personally done it via a local Wireguard server and can't really compare it to tailscare or whatever cloudflare does... Because I've never used those.

If you need a GPU just for encoding, go on the 2nd hand market and pick up a used Nvidia RTX 2000/3000 card. Intel Arc could also work, but it's a bit quirky afaik...

What was the hardest part of schooling for you? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

Grade 12. Absolute waste of time. Like... "I taught myself HTML/JS/CSS, instead of listening" levels of a waste of time.

Yes. The biggest flaw of railjack is that there isn't enough of it.

Spotify update broke playing from another device... AGAIN (lemmy.world)
 

Yeah, for some reason, after the newest UI update, changing the volume from another device is broken... AGAIN. Good thing I use spotify like that only 90% of the time.

I sure do love using services I pay for...

How to force all chromium apps to use wayland, instead of xwayland by default? (lemmy.world)
 

I am aware of the switches you can pass to each app to make it use native wayland, but is there any way to do it globally?

My homelab upgrade experience (lemmy.world)

This is sort of a follow-up to my previous post, asking about migrating ZFS pools to a new machine. Migration went smoothly and the new machine is quite the nice upgrade, if I may say so myself I went from:

A hacked together custom build

AMD FX-8320E 8c/8t @3.20 GHz 16GB ram

To a used HP ProLient dl380e gen8

2x Xeon E5-2450 16c/32t @2.10 GHz 64GB ram

Not mentioning storage, as I haven't changed that, still using a

5x 2TB RAIDz1 HDD pool

Huge thanks to anyone who replied to my old post :)

The ProLient has been quite the fun experience, got it for real cheap and it's been pretty great. Took me a while to figure out how to get the thing booting, iLO4 is not as horrible as I expected and it is kinda loud, but pretty great other than that.

Questions about migrating a ZFS RAID (lemmy.world)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I've recently been looking at options to upgrade (completely replace) my current NAS, as it's currently more than a little bit jank and frankly kinda garbage. I have a few questions about that and about migrating my current TrueNAS scale installation or at least it's settings over.

Q1: Does the physical order of the drives matter? I.E. The order they are plugged into the SATA ports.

Q2: Since I have TrueNAS scale installed on a USB flash drive (yeah, ik you're not supposed to but it is what it is), how bad of an idea would it be to just... unplug it from my current NAS and plug it into the new one?

Q3: If all else fails, how reliable is TrueNAS scale's importing of ZFS Pools and are there any gotchas with it?

Q4: Would moving to a virtualized solution like proxmox and installing TrueNAS scale on top of that in a VM make more sense on a beefier server?

E: Thank you all for the replies, the migration went smoothly :)

I mean, the title really says it all. It occurs seemingly at random, but not all the time and I've been unable to determine any pattern to it... I'm using the latest proton stable version and pipewire-pulse for audio. Any ideas on how to fix it?

I've had this same issue on Gentoo and now on Alpine, both with plasma 6 (Wayland). Pipewire and plasma 6 seem to be working as intended other than that... Any help would be appreciated!

E: the issue is plasma 6 exclusive, I have hyprland installed along side it and screensharing works just fine there

Ideas for how to repurpose a half broken laptop (lemmy.world)

Due to unfortunate circumstances (me dropping the laptop) I have now ended up with a half broken laptop that has a broken screen and a dying battery. I could repair it, however, I don't wanna bother as I'm very likely gonna be getting a new one soon.

The laptop itself still works fine, however the broken screen and dying battery make it pretty much useless as a laptop and I already have a home lab NAS thing, so I'm kinda out of ideas on what to do with it. Any ideas?

Here are the specs:

CPU: i5-8300h

GPU: intel HD830/GTX1050ti

RAM: 16GB

Storage: 128GB SSD

Best place to buy replacement parts for a laptop? (lemmy.world)

I've got a Dell G3 3579 that's in a dire need of a battery and a bottom panel replacement. I've thought of buying them off aliexpress, but I'm a bit skeptical of it... So ig my question is whether it's OK to buy stuff like replacement laptop batteries off aliexpress.

E: I've checked, amazon does not ship to my country... I'm also technically asking if anyone knows any trusted good replacement battery manufacturers that I should look for...
