netstat -tp -- that'll show you TCP connections and the associated program, doing a DNS lookup for the IPs they're connected to. You may need elevated permissions to see what some processes are.
There are a bunch of other options (e.g. -n to get numeric output instead of looking up names, -l to get programs listening for incoming connections, etc); check the man pages for more details.
I just right click on the terminal to change the profile to whatever I feel like it should be in the moment (usually red). I do it by reflex, basically. I never felt the need to try to set up automation for different servers, but I expect there's probably a way to do that if you really wanted to.
I (manually) set the background color of my terminals depending on the machine I connect to. I currently have profiles for red, green, blue, and black backgrounds with black as my default. I usually use red for ones I want to be especially careful of.
While I don't find the idea particularly appealing personally, there are modified versions of Zelda games that randomize various aspects of the game (like what items are in which chests) and apparently a decent number of people do actually enjoy playing them. (Usually not on a first playthrough though!)
I've been trying to figure out a related sort of video streaming setup for work (without Owncast, but with a similar sort of 24/7 goal plus other considerations) and have been looking into using ffmpeg's capabilities to output either HLS or DASH segments + manifests. (FFMPEG can do both but I don't know which would be better for my needs yet.) The sources I'm working with are RTSP/RTP instead of RTMP and I only need streaming to browser clients currently -- although it working with VLC naturally by pointing it to the manifest is nice.
HLS and DASH work by having videos split into small chunks that can be downloaded over HTTP, so just replacing the manifest allows for continuous streaming (the client pulls it repeatedly) without the server needing to maintain a continuous connection to the client.(Fan out to CDNs works naturally since the video chunks are just files that can be served by any web server.)
It should be possible to do some creative things by either creating / modifying the manifests myself with scripting or by piping chunks into another instance of ffmpeg from a script. (I've done something similar using -f image2pipe in the past, but that was for cases where I need to do things like create a video from an image gallery dynamically.) That's as far as I've gotten with it myself though.
I don't know what the right answer is either, but I'm also interested in finding out and hopeful you get additional responses.
I have an older version of TrueNAS on it from when it was still FreeBSD based (instead of Linux). I might replace it with Scale whenever I get around to doing maintenance on it next -- or maybe just go to stock Debian or something since I don't use most of the bells-and-whistles.
I run my NAS that way too. I just mount it and play videos with VLC if I want to watch something I have on it. The main reason I have a NAS is because I ran out of drive bays in my main system a few years ago... Works fine for my needs currently; no need to make it more complicated.
Historically, I don't know, but personally, I prefer YYYY-MM-DD style dates since they sort naturally in basically all computer software without having to think about it.
I have a folding card table that currently serves as my desk. I don't know how old it is -- 1960s, maybe, based on the style of the brand/sales label on the back? It's almost certainly older than I am, at least... Got it from my uncle back when I was in college and its still working well enough that I haven't bothered to replace it.
I don't know what anyone else intends to do, but if I can fix the issues I'm currently looking at -- and no one else has stepped up in the interim -- I'll at least take a look at the 1.0 stuff. (I use mlmym and would like it to keep working...)
the thumbnails now are even more clearly 4-pixel potatoes
pictrs's thumbnail parameter uses dumb raw pixel sampling -- which leaves something to be desired... It has other sampling options implemented (with resize, according to the docs), but they don't seem to accessible on my instance. You can remove thumbnail=96 if you want to get the image without that thumbnail sampling, at least.
make everything zoom 150%
I do this with my browser's UI (ctrl-plus keyboard shortcut in FF-based browsers works for me).
MrKaplan already forked it and is keeping it on life support for lemmy.world. I've been trying to make enough sense of it to fix several issues that have been bugging me for a while, and will contribute my fixes there if I can figure them out.
I've only got a few hours each weekend where I have good concentration + enough free time to work on it, and don't know the relevant languages (Go, Rust, TypeScript), so my progress is pretty slow... but I'm still poking at it.
You could support this by making vote buttons submit a form if JS isn't enabled. (That's what mlmym does.)
Can't manually switch between dark and light mode
Hmm... There are some pretty nifty things you can do with a hidden checkbox, label, and some clever CSS (e.g. html:has(#element:checked) + CSS variables -- though FYI :has is baseline 2023.)
Making it persistent would require some more effort -- e.g. form + cookies + server side style sheet selection, most likely. mlmym lets users change their theme w/o JS by submiting a form on the setting page. I'd have to think a bit if there's a good way to make it persistent across multiple requests for logged out users with a CDN caching things in between though...
only automatically based on browser settings
Doesn't actually work for me in a FF138-based browser w/ JS blocked via NoScript -- I always get light mode despite having a dark mode preference set. (Where do you have your prefers-color-scheme media query?)
Also, FYI I had to manually override font restriction -- otherwise all your buttons end up as tofu characters. (I think NoScript is being kind of unreasonably strict there by blocking first party fonts.) That's a papercut kind of issue, but figured I'd point it out in case it might save you some debugging time if you get confused NoScript users in the future.
I picked an RNG name since my old common username (from reddit, etc) was not available when I started on kbin.social (RIP) and I couldn't think of anything else I wanted to be called. I deliberately kept it short though. Not sure what to make of other RNG names -- esp. long unintelligible ones -- but I've seen at least one account that I think is legit which has a long, bizarre RNG-looking username and a non-English display name, so 🤷️
You can use tesseract -l jpn input.png - on the command line to have it print out the text from input.png into the console if you've got the language files for Japanese installed. (There's also language files for vertical text and a few others for script in my package manager.) Alternatively give the filename (w/o extension) instead of - to write the output into a .txt file.
On Mint, I think I did sudo apt install tesseract-ocr tesseract-ocr-jpn to get it working for the simple case of horizontal text; been a while though.
