Oh yeah, a reliable Android Syncthing client would be awesome after the debacle with Syncthing-Fork lately.

Here is my list:

• Open WebUI to have browser access to ollama
• AUTOMATIC1111 Stable Diffusion Web UI to generate images
• HomeAssistant to automate my home
• Immich to backup pictures from family phones and computers and make them accessible like Google Photos
• PeerTube to store and make accessible family videos
• PieFed to access the threadyverse
• Mastodon to do microblogging
• Uptime Kuma to check that all my services are up and running
• Synapse Matrix Server for Text, Video and audio chats with family and friends
• Syncthing to share files

I wish Scratch was more powerful, kind of like Flash was back in the day, so that it would be easier to make more complicated things with it. I feel right now if you want to make a somewhat real game it gets too hard too quickly because you need to work around the limitations.

Yeah, I also think this is the safest way. PeerTube doesn’t have direct messages like PieFed, Lemmy or Mastodon have.

Enjoy the silence by Depeche Mode

If you want to go FOSS all the way down to the hardware I would suggest the Pine Time:

https://pine64.org/devices/pinetime/

It has a step counter, so not quite km, but it is all FOSS Hardware and Software.

If you want something more sophisticated then there is AsteroidOS which can be flashed on a bunch of commercially available smart watches: https://asteroidos.org/watches/

Even Chairman Mao, Comrade Stalin and the Führer himself, Hitler? /s

Congrats! For me it also has bin godsend that the company allowwes Linux for developers as an exception. In my case it also means that you yourself are responsible for everything yourself, backup, upgrades, security, etc. The only thing they make sure is that the Cisco VPN is also working (it’s shitty but anyway) with Linux.

But that is exactly what I want. They do offer a corporate Ubuntu image, which I used one time but hated it, so I blasted it and installed Arch (btw.).

I still need to run MS office and Teams, but I do that in the Browser (have to use Chromium for it because it doesn’t work well in Librewolf). But like you say, those pills are much easier to swallow compared to winning Windows 11 on a daily basis, especially as a IT professional.

I feel like I’m in good company, I moved my stuff to my own forgejo instance about two month ago because finally I had some time to set one up. I wanted to do it for years because it was embarrysing to host open source code on a closed source platform ran by Microsoft. But my main kick in the but to really just do it was their CEO told his workers to embrace AI or get out: https://www.businessinsider.com/github-ceo-developers-embrace-ai-or-get-out-2025-8 I knew this is not the place to be anymore.

Actually I’m more interested in apps like bank apps and tax authorities login apps. But I guess it’s more similar to Graphine OS where it also doesn’t work because of lack of google libs?

What it’s very accurate, light years ahead of zodiac signs.

Wait, so it’s possible to run Android apps in a lightweight container similar to docker on Linux?

I’ve been using TextEditor.app on OSX to quickly open it and jot down something during meetings, etc. until Apple put in cloud into it and you needed to first choose the name and the path of the file where you wanted to store it.
This is when I decided to write TextEd.app which would only do what the previous app did, open a new window with a textarea and only when you wanted to save it it would ask you for the path and name. I even removed the RDT functionality and it would be just plain text without anything.

They’re just following China.

As a child in Poland I also hated them :D

Mostly brown sauce from frying meat and then some cream in it, so gravy basically.

It’s easy to make a movie sound dumb by attacking only the weak points and not acknowledging why it is very popular.

For Bladerunner for example:

Half the movie is just people wandering through neon fog acting like every sentence is the meaning of life. And yet somehow nobody ever explains anything.

Deckard is supposed to be this legendary hunter but spends most of the time getting tossed around by the very things he’s meant to “retire.”

The world looks incredible, yeah, but it’s basically style doing all the heavy lifting while the plot tiptoes behind hoping nobody asks questions.

And the big emotional moments? They land mostly because the soundtrack shoves them at you, not because the story bothered to earn them.

Before children and during the pandemic I did, but with one simple change, home office instead of 3 hours commuting in heavy traffic.

It’s a good movie, I watched it with the kids, we all liked it. Children like it as much as they did Frozen back then.

It’s one of the very few original movies nowadays which doesn’t just reheat some old franchise, so I’m all for it to succeed and show that it’s worth to make new original movies.

I don’t need peacefully, I’m contempt with what I had before I was born, that seems to me ideal, especially considering the alternatives the different religions are proposing.

Moreover, I know that what I had before I was born is possible, not only desirable.
