tbh i prefer the older design. seems like this is based on conversations.im?

that’s a really nice desktop you have there. I legit can’t tell it’s not Windows 7 lol

they haven’t released any of the files yet, just metadata

awesome! i hope this stays around.

would be nice if it also saved/archived everything it downloads from instagram and sends it to the internet archive

are you using -current or 15.0?

servo?

would be nice if it’s possible to use mlmym with piefed… luckily it seems like boost and voyager now works tho

I would just lock the nvidia driver and kernel to the latest working LTS, maybe also stuff like mesa if necessary.

I don’t… when setting up a new system I just copy what I need from any random machine I have logged into at the time. As I need different config for different systems it doesn’t really make sense to have one perfect config on all either…

i did something similar in the past and just used xfce with onscreen keyboard. other options were too dumbed down for desktop usage.

maybe the distro you use? so that you could directly offer help.

if not, maybe just plain old debian?

isn’t it possible to configure it so that only one of my machines is able to connect to the target machine (and not the other way around)? not sure how that’s problematic.

i never used rustdesk so can’t comment on that…

i also use reverse ssh to forward the target machine’s port to mine when i can’t use tailscale.

true, but it’s hard to diagnose chromeos when things go wrong, also can’t use ublock origin or any random ancient windows software one may need. (that usually works fine with wine)

have tailscale installed on their machine, and ssh/vnc(x0vncserver or x11vnc) daemon running on it. when they call you for help you can just login directly and navigate them through stuff.

btw wireproxy also supports http proxy. i’m not sure how efficient it is, but i use it daily for having different vpns on each firefox container tab.

i mean its great if it works well, but kinda funny we need to run a full distro in a container to run a browser to run an IM program

i have a ‘src’ directory. tho my home directory is extremely messy, ls | wc -l gives me 170 now…

this is my first time hearing about borg, is there anything it does that can improve my current setup? from a quick look it seems like it creates its own backup file while rsync works with raw directory structure.

i just have a simple shell script that uses rsync to upload my files to a server and have a termux shortcut on the homescreen, i just press it once in a few days

yeah i always do this with tigervnc server on X11. create a vncpasswd file and place xinitrc on ~/.vnc/xstartup, then run vncserver :1 to create X11 display :1 and vnc server on port 5901. if you want to start vnc on a (physical) session already running, you can run x0vncserver. there’s also x11vnc but x0vncserver feels much faster for me.
