  • You can de-DRM books purchased from the Kobo store, I do it frequently. Use Apprentice Alf tools in Calibre.

  • Maybe I'm a philistine, but I love this:

    Spanish moss whispers—
    Snow blankets Bourbon Street’s glow,
    A rare Southern sigh.

    I had to look up what Spanish Moss is, but that made the imagery even more vivid.

  • The benefit of example.com is that no one can ever register it, so there's never a chance of causing additional spam to a genuine domain owner.

  • I'm a big self-hoster and had been using the *arr stack for years, and manual torrenting before that, all the way back to XBMC.

    Last year I finally got around to trying real-debrid, and it was so convenient I dumped everything else. Now I only torrent for music and ebooks.

    It's just so effortless to use 🤷

  • Go back and look at all the good faith replies to you, and notice that you haven't replied in kind. You seem like you have a strong and incorrect agenda to push, without being willing to take on any new information which people are providing to you.

    You only harm yourself by being fixed in your mindset. There is a very strong correlation between success and people who are able to take on information and grow.

  • Ahh yes, Mullvad email and drive. Both great products!

  • For distrobox, you can export your CLI tools, then use them anywhere in your system:

     
        
    distrobox-export --bin /usr/bin/some_app --export-path ~/.local/bin
    
      

    Alternatively you could distrobox enter from the Jetbrains terminal.

    I would generally use brew for installing system-wide CLI tools, and use a devcontainer if I want to have a specific dev environment for a project.

  • In the Filesystem section for that app in Flatseal, you need to add the path to your NAS drive (the same SMB path that it's mounted in the Files app). That will give your FF flatpak access to that location.

  • I use Proton Drive on Librewolf on Bluefin without issues, so that seems a little odd. It might be an issue with what access you've given the fkatpak. Flatseal is the right place to look.

  • Using brew is the recommended method on uBlue, so you're already doing the right thing.

    That being said, I use Jetbrains and devcontainers on Bluefin-DX and it's been flawless for me, straight out of the box.

  • I use Jetbrains, devcontainers, and distrobox on Bluefin-DX and it has been flawless out of the box. There's a single command to install the Jetbrains toolbox, which let's you then manage all their apps.

    Couldn't recommend it enough, made my development lifecycle so easy.

  • Yes, who would want sandboxed apps which restrict the app's access to the system. /s

  • It's just what I use, as I'm specifically looking for something which only notifies when things aren't able to report due to failure. Free for 20 checks which is more than enough for me.

    If I were hosting it myself I wouldn't know if my own notification system had failed (since it wouldn't be able to report due to failure.)

  • For Podman you don't need anything else other than Podman to monitor and restart failed containers:

     
        
    podman-compose --podman-run-args='--health-on-failure=restart' up -d
    
      

    For anything else I use https://healthchecks.io/

  • I would consider docker very easy to use and well worth exploring. The benefit of Docker is that it runs exactly the same on any system, no matter what the underlying OS is.

    Here's how difficult it was to set up Immich:

    1. Download a docker-compose.yml file, which describes the options for the Immich server.
    2. Run docker-compose up -d

    That's it. Immich is now installed and running.
