Hey want to grab a beer?

[-] windlas@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I was thinking about grabbing one revently and was deciding between the OLED 512gb and 1tb. Is replacing the SSD is fairly easy?

Edit: I went and checked out the iFixit page for the replacement. It doesnt look difficult but I'd probably just get the 1tb model and be done with it.

This is great news! I hadn't seen that. Thanks for sharing!

If you haven't run Doom on it, are you really even trying?

In the context menu on a given post, would it be possible to add an option to block that community (or user) directly?

As it stands now, I'd have to go to that community and then block it from there, unless I'm missing something.

Edit: Disregard. It's already in the software. Long press on the community name let's you block.

I switched over a year ago and have no regrets. It does everything I want (including android auto now) and gives me at least a little but more privacy than a stock android image.

The more people who use it the more impetus there is to further develop it.

Give it a go! Its a great.

Use a p2p block list in your torrent client. Once I started using that the emails stopped.

I use: https://github.com/Naunter/BT_BlockLists/

But there are probably others

Very interesting, thanks for sharing. I didnt realise that Arch adoption was so high. I (don't) use arch, BTW. Although now I feel like I want to give it a spin to see what all the fuss is about!

Or maybe I'll stay fat, dumb, and happy with Fedora and Nobara on my desktop and laptop.

Not that it would change anything for me personally, but I really think Pop! OS is a poor naming choice. Who puts an exclamation mark in their name? Aside from Yahoo! I suppose.

Allegedly someone is making a Freelancer-esque like open world space game. Its called "Underspace", and it looks decent. Release sometime in the first half of this year, I think.

Protectli FW6B (lemmy.ca)
submitted 8 months ago by windlas@lemmy.ca to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I'm using a Protectli FW6B as my opnsense firewall/router. I'm upgrading my internet service to 1.5 GB fiber and I'm not sure what to do with this device once I do. I could continue using it as my router (I guess put it on the LAN side of the supplied Bell "Gigahub" router/WiFi ap/whatever the fiber equivalent of a modem is?) but then I lose out on 1/3 of my bandwidth.

I already have a homebuilt NAS running truenas with a bunch of services - I guess I could move all those services from truenas onto the Protectli and keep the NAS solely as a storage system?

Either that or just sell it to recupe the costs somewhat. I'm already considering selling my ruckus 510s because the new router comes with WiFi 6. If I did that, I'd probably look to sell the 2x ruckus r510 aps I have setup too.

Is there another option I'm missing?

That's cold...

Have they added spell check yet? I love it, but I need a keyboard that can spellchwck and autocorrect...

I'm leaving that typo in there to make my point.

I see a lot of posts about Redhat for putting their code base behind a paywall. I've only been using Linux as my main desktop OS for a couple of years now. Someone recommended Fedora at the time, and I've been happy with it. I had previously tried PopOS, Mint, and Ubuntu, but none of them convinced me to switch from Windows full time until I tried again with Fedora.

How will what Redhat is doing affect Fedora for the home user? Should I start considering something else?

Edit: thanks for all of the responses! Sticking with fedora for now it is.
