I made a CLI status screen on my raspberry pi.

It shows (for now):

• If my local/remote servers and services are up
• wttr.in weather report
• A figlet clock
• My Astrobotany plant
• Placeholder: Asciiquarium
• Placeholder: cmatrix

I'm not sure what to else to put on, maybe a calendar, emails or todo list - still work in progress.

Does anybody else have such a thing? Please show me.

Bought a DVD collection of all X-Files seasons (1-11) - Ripped them (over 60 DVDs) to my NAS.

I plan to start a collection of old series which are available with complete DVD sets. Unfortunately Star Trek TNG seems to be only available as Bluerays.

Wouldn't be a problem if I could rip them with Linux with all the DRM.

Is this possible? To rip DRM secured Blueray discs with Linux and a standard mobile BD drive?

Hello fediverse,
because it's common in this space, this is a little #introduction

I'm completely new to all this Social Media stuff and I was very skeptical about it in the past. Due to the evil nature of their corporations, I avoid Facebook and Twitter like the plague. But because ActivityPub is a free protocol and not bound to corporate interests it seems interesting. I'm not sure if I'll like it or post frequently - I'm just trying it out.

I'm an enthusiastic computer, GNU/Linux and *BSD hobbyist. I like to tinker around with hard- and software in my little homelab. I'm in no way a professional or expert of any kind in the IT field. Just doing things for fun.

Also interested in Gemini and the smolnet/indieweb. The way the internet is heading these days isn't very promising. When I discovered the gemini protocol in 2021 I was imediately intrigued. So I set up my own little capsule which I now regard as my private home in the online world (link in profile).

I hope we have a good time together!
