Da fehlen mir wirklich die Worte.

Hi,

Is there good literature on how to repair stuff? Just general things, not specific appliances. How to repair wood, how to properly sand wood and metal, how to replace a tile, how to read and analyze circuits, identify faulty parts and correct replacements, etc. I just want to become better at repairing stuff.

I have a MiTV box with Android that runs apps for Jellyfin, Prime Video and Disney Plus. I would like to replace it with a mini PC, like some N100 box, to have more control over what runs on it. I tried a Pi with Kodi once, but I hate the UI so much. It's just not my thing.

What other options do I have with self-hosted alternatives? I want a central UI like AndroidTV offers, I need Jellyfin, Disney Plus, Prime Video and some local TV station's streaming offerings and some remote control.

I don't think that's possible, as you can only run Disney and Prime in a browser or their apps. And using a browser on the TV is not nice UX. But maybe some of the great people here have cracked that nut and can help me.

Are there any free/open-source TTS options out there that are on the same level as Google Cloud's? I tried a lot of free ones, but they are absolutely awful and still sound like my Amiga did 30 years ago. With LLMs being available as open source, I am hoping there's also a good TTS offering I just haven't found yet.

I really want to use Wayland, but the lack of a Wayland-based KVM sharing tool is an absolute deal breaker for me. I tried so many of them, but none worked. Waynergy looks alright, but it's only a client. rkvm didn't work at all and I don't remember the names of the other tools I tried. I know that Input Leap/Barrier has met their donation goal for Wayland support, but I am not holding my breath that it'll work with wlr.

Has anyone gotten KVM sharing to work with a Wayland host and other Linux clients?

Hi,

I am always looking for sources for comics, particularly franco-belgian in English or German. The only sources I can find are these godawful download sites where you need to pay or your download takes a day.

Anyone have better sources?

Edit: Thanks a lot everyone!

I am looking for something I can run on a Pi that gives me access to my private audio library plus Spotify, because I hate switching apps. I want to access it from a desktop and Android. Does someone have something like this set up?
