I have one. No dead pixels. It doesn’t necessarily do fancy things but that’s sort of why I got it. $30 and it tells the time, shows me notifications and lasts over a week before I have to charge it. Eeeeevery now and then I’ll use it to control media or play 2048. Hey it even counts my steps!
I always thought Ziggy was a cool name.
Definitely for you to decide, but if you’re on a desktop in a single family home you’re probably fine. A laptop that you bring around with you I would highly advise against. I would probably also evaluate what other functions the computer serves. Just gaming or also do you do your job on that machine. What else does that machine have access to?
Ha I saw that
TLDR: do memtest on your RAM
I recently had an issue for quite some time where my computer would occasionally just hard crash. When it first started happening I tried many of the common tests including memcheck but found nothing. For a while it wasnt super common so I just lived through it. I thought it was an OS thing but it occurred on a different Linux distro and even on the ancient Windows 10 install I have but rarely use. I was just about to pull the trigger on replacing mobo and maybe even CPU+RAM. Before I did that I followed someone’s suggestion to do a mem test. I could have at least sworn that I already did that and it came clean but it was an easy enough test to run, so why not.
Sure enough, found an error. I isolated the faulted DIMM, pulled it out and I haven’t had a crash since. Crazy since I’m all but certain I did both memtest from a Linux live iso and the Windows memory checking utility.
In short, test your RAM. Do multiple passes. Maybe even just try swapping out single DIMMs and running on that for a reasonable ammount of time to see if you can isolate a culprit. It was my first thought when the issue first occurred because it’s usually what causes stuff like that. When the tests came up clean originally I assumed it had to be something else. I was wrong.
I primarily use logseq but have obsidian configured to use the same directory. I then use logseq for journaling and some tag notes that have searches and links kind of built in. Then I have obsidian for wiki or KB type notes. I can then link to parts of that in logseq. I also use obsidian for a few niche situations where the plugins add value. Its not a perfect solution but it works pretty well for me. I also typically use obsidian to folder directory organize my non journal notes, bit really you could just as easily use your file browser for that.
I would just append that judging people is a good thing, often blanket misinterpreted as a bad thing. You should make an initial judgement upon meeting someone (it doesn’t really matter, your subconscious will anyway). The important part is being willing to update that judgement based on learning more.
Subbed. Just curious as to how (or if) you intend to differentiate yourself from the Jupiter Broadcasting team’s Selfhosted.show podcast?
was coming in here to mention rclone, which is pretty cool stuff. this sort of sounds like a pretty wrapper for rclone, which means this should be pretty neat too. I’ll have to check it out.
Pinetime isn’t the most robust of smartwatches, but I would say it fits the bill.
Yeah. I often kick myself for getting an nvidia card. My former distro was Ubuntu so I’m familiar with it from that end. I can see how having a constantly updating kernel could cause pain with the nvidia drivers. Even on leap or Ubuntu any tine the nvidia drivers updated it took a fair bit of extra time for regular apt/zypper processing kernel stuff and whatnot.
im going to keep a sharp eye on slowroll. I might be crazy enough to (eventually) try to convert from leap 15.5 to tumbleweed to slowroll. If it all blows up I was probably going to have to do that anyway.
Tell me more about your Tumbleweed+NVIDIA problems. I’m on Leap 15.5, but with all this I’ve thought about moving over to Tumbleweed or Fedora. My card is NVIDIA, so I’m not looking for a big headache.
Nice, thanks. I looked before; either I missed it or it was an update feature
My opinion is probably in line with most; that for general “news” it’s just fine. For niche topics, most aren’t here or at least aren’t as robust as Reddit
There are two relatively minor features that I do wish would be implemented:
homepage defaults to Subscribed instead of all, or at least a way to set that as the default
a quick jump to top of page button that stays present when you’ve scrolled way down the page. Not sure if that was a RIF addition or native to Reddit, but that was a nice quality of life feature
Neat! SUSE was technically my first Linux distro I installed probably circa 2006 via 3 or 4 CDs on some old donated hardware. I played around with it for a bit but never really dove in. A few years later I tried Ubuntu from a “demo” CD I got in Linux magazine and outside of a bit of experimental distro hopping I’ve been mostly on Ubuntu for the last 17ish years. Just about 3 weeks ago, I decided to install openSUSE again. Was split between tumbleweed and Leap, but decided to go with Leap (15.5). It’s a bit different coming from a .deb based system, but I’m digging it so far. Kind of crazy that the build I installed so long ago was probably one of the first releases of SUSE.
You’re on the same wavelength as me. My ideal product is an e-ink display to stick in the kitchen or some other high traffic area to display relevant family information and with touch controls to do some fairly basic things like toggle digital switches/dials or just switch to alternative dashboards. If I could find a touch-enabled e-ink display that’s a good size but not stupid expensive (keeping in mind this is absolutely a luxury item so I’m not looking to shell out any significant volume of monies on the thing), I could attach one to a Pi and make one myself.
I’m out of the loop, what’s the reference?
Vans slip ons FTW
This is an interesting tool that I’m going to back pocket, so thanks for that. That being said, any trackers and such on Bitwarden.com root page isn’t really indicative of the real product, though I’ll say it reflects poorly. That page basically is a sales pitch put together by probably a completely separate marketing team.
