I considered voting for them, but I didn’t.

The reason is because there are other parties with comprehensive plans for digitalisation / IT stuff PLUS lots of other plans for healthcare, economy, infrastructure, etc.

Pirate party seems like a party focused on IT stuff only, whereas I also care about other topics, such as international trains, subsidizing healthcare, improving education and lots of other things.

(I voted for Volt Nederland BTW)

So this woman is jailed for live streaming the truth?

I wanted to watch Game of Thrones, but I couldn’t, because there was no legal streaming service available back then. (This was in 2015 or something).

That’s when I discovered the Pirate Bay and its wonders…

I’m on PC and I haven’t noticed anything changed. Literally. I don’t notice any bugs nor have I noticed a sudden improvement of my graphics. It seems to me that the 15gb that Steam downloaded, was just full of 0’s and don’t do anything.

Edit: Nevermind, apparently the new quests and items are part of the update, so in that case I have definitely noticed something lol.

Tip: if you have an Android TV, you can install SmartTube as an alternative, privacy-friendly YouTube client. It has no ads and sponsorblock integration

I use it to manage my documents, backup my photos from my phone to my server and access all my files from any other device. Basically Nextcloud is my replacement for OneDrive.

Additionally, I have used it in the past to collaborate on various group projects which require documents. For example, I had to make a presentation with some other people and I could create a PowerPoint in Nextcloud, send a share link to others and then we could edit the PowerPoint in realtime with Nextcloud + Collabora, which is pretty cool. It’s the only FOSS alternative (at least as far as I’m aware of) that can compete with Microsoft 365 / Google Workspaces.

Honestly, I’m not really excited about the past couple of major Nextcloud releases.

Mainly because there’s still one big issue for small-scale Nextcloud servers: performance.

Mainly the web UI is still too slow for me to properly use, which is why I don’t use it at all (unless I have to update an app).

It’s a bit disappointing that they’re mainly focused on the large enterprise customers instead of small hobbyists like me, but it’s still understandable; after all, their income is mainly from the enterprise customers, not from selfhosters.

I also don’t really like how they’ve jumped on the AI hypetrain instead of improving performance. But once again, I guess this generates more income for them than focusing on other things like improving performance.

I’d first recommend that you think about what you need.

What do you need? Do you want a safe space to back up your photos & videos from your phone? Or maybe a way to stream your movies, series and/or music in a cheap way?

Once you figure out what you want to host, you can look into which program can fulfill your needs. Check out the awesome-selfhosted list for a HUGE amount of services you could host.

You could try making a symlink, so that there is a ‘file’ in the Nextcloud directory which points to the Immich gallery, although I’m not sure how good it truly works.

Personally, the main thing that makes me stay alive is the hope that it might get better in the future. I tell myself that as long as I believe in myself, there’s always a chance for a better future. Always a chance that whatever bullshit I’m in, it’ll be over eventually. Additionally, I keep suicide close with me. For all problems, I think to myself that there’s always one solution, which is suicide. This thought kind of comforts me, because regardless of how bad things become, I always have an easy way out.

For some general tips, I’d suggest you start exercising. Additionally, make sure you stay hydrated, drink enough and eat enough. Basically, just make sure you’ve got a healthy body, because a healthy mind cannot exist in an unhealthy body. Or at least, it’s very difficult to have a healthy mind in an unhealthy body.

Next, I suggest you start thinking ‘What’s the main problem in my life right now? If I were a millionaire, how would I use my wealth to get out of my problems?’. If you know what exactly is causing your unhappiness, then you can try and fix it. And if your job is a problem, then be more specific. What exactly about your job makes you unhappy?

Why are you unable to participate in the world? What withholds you from gaining happiness? If it’s just your job, then I’d suggest finding another job, but that seems like an obvious answer, so I assume you’ve already looked into that.

If you would like to keep track of the movies you watch and give them a rating from 1 - 10, I’ll suggest Movary. I’m a contributor of the project and the goal is to eventually add support for TV Shows as well.

Does this also apply to linuxserver/nextcloud image? Because that’s what I’m using.

Just looked through it and I’m considering to switch!

I was wondering though, is there support for debugging sessions like VSCodium has? And what about remote development, SSH, docker integration and WSL2?

Also, can Pulsar run, inspect and debug (unit) tests?

Ah well, that is a funny coincidence then. I guess neither Christoph Fink nor I were very creative with coming up with a name for our respective apps.

I’ve personally never heard of his project, but I can say that I haven’t published my package at the PyPi register. Although, I do have published it to the Docker Hub.

Maybe metatube-ui for my package and metatube-cli for his? Considering his package mainly runs from the CLI and mine is a web UI.

I didn’t copy any project.

Although, I learnt Flask (the framework I use for this app) while developing MetaTube, and the project structure is heavily inspired by the excellent Flask guide by Miguel Grinberg. Check him out if you’re interested in learning Flask.

You can use this but it doesn’t really download directly from Spotify. Instead, it takes the song name from Spotify, searches it on YouTube, downloads it from YouTube and then adds metadata from Spotify on the downloaded file.

Shameless self-plug, but I made a Python program that basically does the exact same thing, except it has a web ui. It’s called MetaTube and it also supports other metadata providers, such as Musicbrainz and Deezer.

I’m using Calibre-Web

Why does this need 3 mariadb containers?

18M.

I started replacing big tech stuff last year, and I have bought a Murena Fairphone 4 with degoogled /e/OS.

I guess my primary reason is just my natural interest in tinkering with digital stuff and trying out new technologies. Besides that, I don’t like Snapchat, Facebook or Twitter, and I’m trying to get rid of Reddit as well.
