I really like the yt channel of the people who delevoped Backpack Battles. They have a whole 2 year catalogue on godot.

I found most people don’t realize the many tiny features it adds over for example vscode (even with all the best plugins enabled yadayada) which in sum make it a much smoother developer experience.

Instead they open it for the first time, type some lines and say it is on par with vscode.

AI writing code for me made me the software architect I always dreamed of becoming.

I fucking LOVE to think about a hard problem for days, planning, researching, comming up with elegant solutions, doing quick POC, thinking what needs to be refactored for it to scale to a real life scenario, then documenting it all in a way that is properly communicating the important aspects in an easy to understand way. It’s so exciting!

And I fucking HATE having to sit down and actually type out the solved code for hours and hours. It’s so boring.

Best 20$ per month subscribtion I’ve ever had.

That said, for modern fast SSD’s the performance overhead of the encryption might be a problem.

How so? I’ve been running LUKS on modern NVMEs for years and there is just the same maybe at worst 10% hit in write/read speeds.

preferably something with WOL that goes silent and fanless when not in use, or something I can shut down with a button

Recently I saw a Traefik plugin that can send WOL packets to a machine when a service that is hosted there gets a network request. It also shuts down the device when it’s not in use. You can set it up with a low power always on thing, like a rpi. I also have a buddy that set it up in a more diy way without Traefik so it’s definitely something that can be done and will save you a lot of electricity in the long term.

As for the NAS, if you want to start small and cheap, there are N95 mini PC’s for like 100-150$. Attatch an external multi TB drive to it via usb and viola there is your first NAS. It will also draw way less power than a full tower PC and still be basically plug and play.

You can do surprisingly much with very little hardware these days. And because the cost is so low you can upgrade later to exactly what you need. Only by trying out will you find out what you care about and want exactly. Online people keep suggesting their own personal preferences.

jshelter extension in firefox

but librewolf is king

I just checked my firewall logs and librewolf (at least with my current settings) does not attempt to connect to incoming.telemetry.mozilla.org

wire

I am currently super happy with https://sftpgo.com/

Personally:

I am used to git. When I don’t need the webUI, I would stick with git because it is already familiar to me.

Let me make it clear to you then.

Why use Git at all then?

For it’s VCS features.

I thought the one reason why everyone wants to use Git these days are the forges.

You thought wrong. Git is not wanted exclusively for the forges, but also for it’s VCS capabilities.

distributed, asynchronous collaboration and versioning.

Or do you wanna send zipped up sourcefiles “project_dev_0.9.6.2_developername_featureID.zip” per email to a dozen colleagues who then have to manually merge it into their current WIP?

Ban data collection agencies, cause they stalk/harass all users.

I sent your comment (with the licence) to all AI companies, that I know of and they will use it for training data.

Just to illustrate how wrong you are. Might set up a bot later.

If anybody needs a Linux IT guy with 15 years of experience, I’ll do it very cheap cause I actually enjoy doing it.

tldr:

• life, work, family reasons for one of the guys. Nothing negative, he just has no time for the podcast anymore but will show up in their linux podcast from time to time in the future.

Altcha is free if you selfhost it.

On their website they have 2 pricing tiers: “Pro” (9€ per month) and “Open Source” (Free)
