I don't organise events much, but heard of https://gancio.org/ which is supposed to be much easier to host than Mobilizon. Just throwing in another alternative.

I switched to it one year ago from nova launcher, after getting used to the change, I don't miss nova at all.

NPP is indispensable, it is the Windows killer-app.

Congrats on the release!

This one is excellent, by university of Helsinki: programming-23.mooc.fi

Hestra gloves seem to have a good discount on pricerunner / prisjakt.nu

Thanks for this. I think this is also an example of a opensource software that is selfhostable, but is intended for a different audience. I think Zammad, Monicahq etc fall under this category. I suppose one would need a solution with an entirely different architecture that's aimed for selfhosters, rather than hope that omnivore becomes easier to selfhost.

Can you elaborate on your experiences so far? What's required in order to selfhost it, and what features will be missing...?

I used and paid for wallabag, but it lacks so many basic features it was a pain to use. Just trying to tag articles was a chore, since wallabag doesn't suggest existing tags.

In addition to all the sound advice you've been give so far, you should have a support contract in case you run into problems and ideally, contract someone to set up your laptop so you have proper encryption, backup etc. You have to consider both meeting the business deadlines, and ensuring the confidentiality and availability of the data. If you want to do this yourself, contract someone to validate your configuration.

Updated post with example.

This was dumb on so many levels.

I downloaded an iso and was supposed to dd it to my USB drive. You can see where this is leading, but it's worse than you think.

I overwrote the hdd. While I was on an airplane. Of a macbook air that I had no idea how to restore to a functioning state. And this was my workplace laptop.

Like I said, dumb on many levels...

Edit: while the question is about breaking ones Linux installation, one could argue that macOS share the same lineage as Linux and share many similarities.

You can make your own bash/ fish/ python menu pretty easily if what you want is to have an "address book" or a speed dialer to you're ssh servers. Let me know if you're curious and I could share mine.

EDIT: so what I use is a fish function, and my "adress book" is hardcoded in it. It was a quick and dirty POC that never moved passed the "conecpt" stage, but ideally - these values should be stored in a csv file so it can be accessible from whatever program you're making / using.

This can surely be easily adaptable to bash or python through a coding LLM for the lazy.

The code below should be in ~/.config/fish/functions/ssh_menu.fish for fish shell.

 python

    
function ssh_menu
    set -l servers[1] "user@ip_or_domainname"
    set -l servers[2] "user@ip_or_domainname"
    set -l servers[3] "user@ip_or_domainname"
    set -l servers[4] "user@ip_or_domainname"
    set -l servers[5] "user@ip_or_domainname"

    clear
    for i in (seq (count $servers))
        echo "[$i] $servers[$i]"
    end

    echo -n "Enter the number of the server to SSH into: "
    read choice

    if test -n "$choice" -a "$choice" -ge 1 -a "$choice" -le (count $servers)
        set server_info $servers[$choice]
        set -l server_ip (echo $server_info | awk '{print $NF}' | tr -d '()')
        echo "Connecting to $server_ip..."
        ssh $server_ip
    else
        echo "Invalid choice."
    end
end


  

I love how tabby contains all keys, identities, configurations etc. But it is sluggish compared to the competition.

Nocodb can run locally as it is distributed as a binary (among other formats).

Surface pros work, but they're not ideal for linux. Expect struggle during the installation, and be aware some parts of the hardware won't work.

I'm curious, what distro where you running? And do you run on hardware that's known to be incompatible with Linux?

I'm happy to help you get started, or at least sort out if Linux is the right fit for you.

Congrats on the release! Had this been made from scratch, without any underlying libraries that'll convert images to ASCII?

The risk that @regalpotoo mentioned is still unmitigated though, single user instance or not. At worst, the personal data can be exfiltrated. At best, the server can be used as a part of a botnet. Even if the software (nextcloud) would be patched, that doesn't help against exploits on a OS level.

Granted, one could run services inside a vpn and have some kind of preventive / monitoring controls, but you're still need to implement some kind of defense in depth in order to protect it.

This is the answer. Joplin and obsidian are excellent for markdown notes, but theyr arent suitable for "jot whatever, anywhere".

The distro (asahi) is still in very early development, gpu acceleration was just recently added. That along with a esoteric architecture, will cause headaches for the uninitiated.

The macs themselves hardware wise are quite mature, but I can't for the life of me use MacOS.
