nice, that is exactly what I'm looking for - thanks : )

yeah I'm only talking about ebooks - I just mentioned audiobookshelf because it can also do ebooks and I've read here that people use it as a ebook management thing

A search, where you could describe what you are looking for in a sentence, which then returns the Article with the relevant part, would be a gamechanger.

Yeah, exactly that

 

Am using Calibre and audiobookshelf. I'd love a solution where I can search the actual contents of the books. Like being able to search for topics inside all of my books.

Would be a cool AI feature - similar to how immich works.

Does anyone have a solution for that?

 

It's essentially an open source fork of maps.me by the original creators.

I've been using OSMAnd for years, but it always felt laggy and not that reliable. Searching was slow and so on. Many street or things it didn't instantly find.

In the Graphene App Store I jnust discovered Accrescent (another app store thing but only with like 10 apps - they're all gold though, god damn)

An in there I found organic maps. And this shit is google maps level responsive. If you're on the lookout for a google maps replacement - consider trying this.

Byeeee

Am writing this on one in my second VPN only user profile. It's like having two phones

Did you end up trying it? I'm also looking for the same thing

 

G'day.

I'm looking for pirated copies of art magazines or maybe a ripped rss feed for some of them.

Here are some of the magazines I'm talking about:


The Brooklyn Rail

Art Forum

moussemagazine.it


I mean, most of these sites already feature almost all of the content anyways, I was just wondering maybe there's some sort of PDF paradise for issues out there.

Thanks

 

There's someone who'd sell me an old lacie 4big raid for 60$. I think it looks kinda cool and would be handy to connect 4HDDs to my small computer - are there any doubts from such an "old" raid? I would be using new disks ofc. The thing came out in 2009 and has USB 3.0 and esata

Thabks for the suggestion - I played around with hot dog Linux today - works really well

That sounds really nice. What if you changed systems? Would the spatialness also change over to the other system? Was there like a hidden file in the folder or somewhere else that defined where everything was?

 

Hi I'm looking for a retro style desktop environment (or maybe just some skin or something) for my Debian workstation. Preferably something that looks like Mac OS 9.

Never mind, I just found this post which explains it all.

Is it better practice to mount drives in /mnt/mountpoint or in /media/user/mountpoint?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Yeah is a browser within a browser. I would say that it's definitely more secure and you can just close the window and continue exactly where you left off. Also if you have multiple devices that's a pretty cool feature.

Old microserver bad idea? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I'm thinking of picking up an old HP Microserver (gen8) and was wondering if it is a bad idea from a security standpoint.

I mean it's only 10 years old - is there any exploit or something like that?

What about a N36L Microserver?

I'd probably run Debian headless on it.

I'd only use it for Syncthing and as a backup NAS.

UPDATE

Everybody made really good arguments against the microserver and I won't be getting one. Thank you for your inputs

Serverbox Github Link

Looking for a convenient overview of your servers?

Randomly found this app on F-Droid and I am blown away.

It fetches the server stats, even drive usage and makes it super easy to open an sftp browser or even a ssh console if you quickly need to.

deep recommendation

 

I've been using the Firefox docker container through the gluetun docker container (runs great with proton and mullvad) and it's been really great.

To me it's kind of like a less restricted tor browser, for when you need something stronger in terms of speed or IP blocking. And maybe something more persistent.

And it always stays open even when you close your connection.

Some of my use cases are:

  • Anonymously downloading larger files through the clearnet.

  • Anonymous ChatGPT usage.

  • Manually looking for torrent magnet links (though I usually do that with the tor browser)

  • Accessing shadow libraries

 

I really like this podcast, which is usually aboutother things, but because I love the bay and Peter Sunde and everything they (at least used to) stand for.

When I saw it I had to listen to it and it was really nice listening to Peter Sunde for an hour.
