There’s a discovery center store, or YAST2 GUI software center. This isn’t the 90s.

Nice.

I’m not sure about those devices, but with a paid account it unlocks speaker grouping and casting to various devices or rooms, or play here on current device function. I don’t have their device, just a raspberry pi with the OS.

Does Volumio suit your needs? I haven’t used Plex audio to compare

Proton or Tuta mail. Supports aliasing so you can make unique email addresses per website, and trash them if you get spammed.

Singing up for a paid account you also get VPN, drive storage, password manager, docs, sheets, AI chat (I know), calendar, meetings and authenticator.

Yep, they work decently. Mine has 256Mb RAM and handles music streaming and Samba Shares via OoenMediaVault. I have it blocked from the internet these days since it can’t install latest kernels and probably has a ton of exploit CVEs

Sensible choice. Rabbit holes are better left alone, unless you have nothing else to do

Just missing codecs right? OOTB OpenSUSE is like that, but you switch repos to one that has the non free codecs etc

My iomega ARM based NAS from 15 years ago runs Debian

To know if you are on your home network and use direct lan etc, rather than finding a sync relay in the cloud…something like that.

Ordered a tiny credit card sized part on Amazon, it came in an enormous box that you could fit a car wheel in…and the box printing said “Now made with less material”. So maybe it equalled out.

DistroWatch isn’t an OS ranking system, its a “How many hits” or " “how many recent users claimed to use” a certain system.

This has no real correlation to actual deployed OS in the world.

It’s more of a buzz ranking; like a lot of people went to Debian recently because of Canonical being a less disrable OS builder. So Distrowatch got a ton of Debian searches at the beginning of that switch, but probably way less now.

Graphic interface, you just click options. And it has drop downs for favourite folders you’ve configured before so you can switch between backup/sync locations.

Once you apply, it runs rsync, and it it shows you the CLI command used as visual reference

Grsync makes this easier :)

Heh

Sensible person…hmmm a big truck I don’t need will cost me a lot in fuel, I will by an average car.

Sensitive person…hmm this giant truck will pollute my community and add to global climate issues, I will buy a very fuel efficient car/EV.

Doucebag…this truck will make me look so bad ass with the trucknuts in back, while I roll coal

A bunch of people have these in my apartment building, I assure you they never haul anything except maybe 3 cases of water bottles. People are morons buying these as daily drivers to the office.

Its a meme reply

The nice thing about zypper is the various patch options and reporting. Gives you a good picture of what CVEs, rating, and if installed, needed, not needed etc. Does Apt have something similar?

An AI researcher explained hallucinations as lying when it doesn’t know, because we train it on truth and lies to hone the model, so it “learns” that misinformation is part of the mess. I.e. training it on what a tiger looks like. To hone that we may feed it zebras, or optical illusion things in a tiger data set to test its internal “what is a tiger” true false ranking, so it learns that non tiger things are in the fuzzy zone. And later may draw from that, and eager to provide an answer throws in garbage it has also “seen”
