Goddammit. The gang behind the bar are all, try this, you’ll like this. Running With Sceptres, an “India pale lager”. And it indeed is very nice!

It wants to be for six pounds bloody eighty a pint

Folks with libraries, I've heard some folks say that they have 10TB of audio files in their libraries. Approximately how many individual tracks is that? I'm assuming that it's a lot of lossless files, but I'm curious what the average file size is and the number of files that comprise such a library.

@wez @flockofnazguls I use OMPD to do this. The satellites can just be a Pi with little to no local setup.

Yet another airport blocking SSH (and Wireguard) on their WiFi. Thanks for nothing, Stansted.

@noodles I really need to setup both on ports 80 and 443 with a protocol proxy

@noodles my ISP (the awesome ) gives me a small IPv4 block for free, and I've never done much with it. Better to setup and not need than the reverse I think

It's annoying when you get that firefighter instinct "this place is about to collapse" about a website and you're already so fucking busy.

I really don't have time to try to archive this site before it implodes, so I gotta try to ignore all the signs while hoping someone else archives it.

(note that I didn't mention which site I'm talking about: this is on purpose)

@DrGravitas @foone umm, archive.org ?

@falken@qoto.org avatar

@jackemled @DrGravitas @foone umm https://webapps.stackexchange.com/a/115426. appears to be a simple two liner? Depending on number and rate limits, and some pauses or sleeps.

@jackemled @DrGravitas @foone if I stopped to state all my assumptions every time I tried to help I'd be even less useful

@jackemled @DrGravitas @foone grandma is archiving things to archive.org? Good for them!

falken,
@falken@qoto.org avatar

@jackemled @DrGravitas @foone I would, if I thought that was the case for my audience. Given we're on Mastodon, safe to assume more savy than average. And certainly willing to look things up. Or you'd not be here.

FYI I give talks on UXD using persona's lol

For those who aren’t aware, Microsoft have decided to bake essentially an infostealer into base Windows OS and enable by default.

From the Microsoft FAQ: “Note that Recall does not perform content moderation. It will not hide information such as passwords or financial account numbers."

Info is stored locally - but rather than something like Redline stealing your local browser password vault, now they can just steal the last 3 months of everything you’ve typed and viewed in one database.

@robert @GossiTheDog much better. Pick a mainstream distro(Ubuntu, Fedora) and GUI (KDE, GNOME) and will work on just about any popular hardware (dell,lenovo). Companies like @frameworkcomputer will even sell you very good, supported by them, hardest

the inverse of "make sure you have working backups of what's important" is "give yourself permission to delete digital detritus that no longer has any value to your life"

you do not need every email you've received for the last decade.

you do not need three copies of every photo you've ever taken with your phone.

you do not need the downloads folder for each of your previous twelve laptops.

you can delete some stuff.

@geniodiabolico @djsundog on Linux you could use /tmp as tmpfs, no need for cron
