  • I like bash, hate the language though but it does the job. I’m using blackbox and yakuake for terminal emulators and IDE is Neovim for frontend and Rider (Jetbrains) for c# backend. I like the debugging experience with Rider.

    If you work through ssh then going all in on Neovim makes a lot of sense. I don’t know what you’re working on but through an ssh Neovim is best.


  • I’m very early stages on making my own TUI for http requests that’s shortcut based. Idea is to use Jetbrains format http files. Folders for projects, sidebar for requests etc.

    Supports environments and I’m hoping I can set up the main screen to use Vim.

    It’s born out of postman hate mostly. It’s just so bloated





  • I’d recommend starting by hosting a nextcloud instance.

    1. Get a desktop computer, pretty much anything will do but having room to add more HDD is important.
    2. Install Linux distro like Ubuntu or something
    3. Get a static IP so your IP doesn’t change
    4. Setup a router port forwarding rule so that an outside address points to your nextcloud instance.

    Then do some optional steps:

    • Automatically turn on PC when power comes back on (BIOS setting)
    • Startup script that runs nextcloud on startup
    • Install docker to manage services like nextcloud
    • Add some remote desktop thingy to manage your server from your laptop (ssh is also good but a steeper learning curve)
    • Get a NAS for storing data with redundancy.
    • Have some other form of backup like your current Google account, cloud provider or one of your mates with a similar setup.

    That’s pretty much what you need to start hosting your own files, then later on you can setup a email server, media server like Jellyfin, homepage and everything.

    Just go one step at a time and when you hit an issue you can and should ask Google or ChatGPT. Remember, everything exposed to the Internet is vulnerable so take security seriously. Always have everything protected by a decently long password, pairing requirement with your server confirming adding a device or an API key.



  • It depends on the distro. Bazzite might get in the way since it’s a more closed distro if you want to do docker stuff. I personally managed but setting up extra hard drives that docker (podman) uses, but it was tricky. You’ll not have issue browsing the Web or installing most apps though.

    Nobara might be a good choice although the user base is not that big so you might have to migrate in a couple of years.

    Otherwise I’d stick to regular distros since they have great support and will stick around for a long time such as Fedora or Kubuntu. I’ve also heard Endavour is really good these days.

    You should consider choosing a distro based on the Wayland integration since you can get HDR fractional scaling and variable refresh rate with them.


  • I have gotten mild injury from running and I definitely think there’s a lot more chance that people get injured my following an AI plan that having a coach.

    A proper coach will make sure you’re not getting injured first before ramping up intensity. An AI will have a tough time conveying the importance of not running through pain. Running through pain is probably the number one cause of injuries.








  • Do you want to post the output of running fallout 4 through steam from the terminal?

    steam steam://rungameid/377160

    In my experience it’s usually some graphics issue. I see your GPU is 2014 model so maybe you need to use the legacy nvidia driver?

    My strategy would be trying to find an error somewhere in some diagnostics or by running a game and then take it from there.
