What's (are) the funniest/stupidest way(s) you've broken your linux setup?
  • Relied on an AUR package for building and signing my unified kernel image... one day it was outdated and geberating the image failed, I noticed that by the fact that the system refused to boot my OS. Fixing it was done in a few minutes but boy, that was a shock :D

    Guess who also checks the exact output of the kernel rebuild now before rebooting!

  • can nix for gaming pirates lead to easy piracy
  • I am not extremely familiar with nix and flakes but from my understanding, they create isolated environments like venv or containers, correct? Would that not mean having a separate wine install and especially separate Lutris install per Game? So no single Lutris that lists all games but a separate one for each, kindof defeats the purpose I think. I fail to see the benefit over just clicking it on the lutris website, so not sure if this would gain traction. Open for any suggestions and corrections though!

  • Anyone else hoping for new motorcycle laws in 2024?
  • Not sure if that is what you asked for or if you only meant in the US but anyway: Europe currently sees a rise in laws that forbid motorbikes on certain roads/areas based on their idle noise (completely idiotic), the weekday or just completely. Austria started some months ago with parts of Germany now following, it is getting slightly more hostile here for bikers...

  • Me vs my ISP
  • Did you contact your ISP about this? Most of them can adjust a setting for you to remove the NAT part, the feature is usually called dual-stack. If you are in the EU, you even have a fundamental right to use your own router, you just have to register your MAC with them.

  • Could someone explain how to set up a lemmy instance with ansible for an absolute beginner
  • I second this. If you want people to help you tell us

    • what did you try to achieve
    • what command did you issue
    • what is the problem

    Meaning what did you type, what did you expect it to do and what is the error. Copy the code ideally, alternatively send a screenshot. Once you provide this, we will be happy to help.

  • Two Servarr (Radar and Sonar) stopped working for unknown reasons
  • Okay, then it simply has an issue with the addresses you are providing, as someone pointed out already, the issue likely is the 192.168.100 network. Find out where exactly you define localhost and 192.168.100.1 as addresses to listen to and change them to e.g. 0.0.0.0 and 127.0.0.1 instead (or ideally just 0.0.0.0 as this includes localhost as well). Restart the container afterwards, see if it works. Of course make a backup of your config first so you can go back.

  • Anybody Using Nebula?
  • Yes, have it running and it works well. Nextcloud setup is sth that I will still have to set up but the only problem I see there is certificates. To debug Nebula, simply try executing it by hand, e.g. nebula --config /path/config.yml and see what the error message is. Or check your journalctl of course. Share the message here and we can have a look!

  • Two Servarr (Radar and Sonar) stopped working for unknown reasons
  • When you issued the netstat command, were the containers up or down? Issue it again after docker-compose stop. If you moved or renamed the compose file, the old conrainers would still run in the old context.

  • Pirated video games SOURCE CODE
  • Well, source code is not sth that you "crack", you can only reverse engineer it (I think it was done with Doom, also OpenRA) or steal it from the company's servers. The use for it is also rather niche, so the risk vs gains ratio is not attractive enough to feed dedicated websites. You can also look at fully open source games like 0AD and check out what they did!

    Edit: I stand corrected (thrice); Doom was indeed open-sourced, not reverse engineered. Thanks for pointing out!

  • Looking for low power devices for selfhosting
  • Very nice! I am running an HC4 (I think; the toaster) now since last month and so far, it's running much better than I thought! So yes, check that one first, then see if you have to upgrade and if you do, go for aarch64 or traditional x64 but not 32 bit arm

  • Ripping Amazon movies
  • Not sure about private trackers but on public ones, I did not see them anywhere. Also chances are not that high since it is old material that never got translated into Englosh or other languages, so quite niche.

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Dafuq did I just read? Author has to a) visit a spelling and grammar course, b) structure their fucking thoughts. So the main point is that some guy is on drugs and leaking information? That could have been three sentences.

  • Calibre Android client (audio & video)

    Hello people, I need to ask the swarm intelligence for some suggestions for my problem:

    I am hosting my eBooks and some downloaded research papers (best idea ever btw) on a calibre instance at home. My gf loves to listen to audio books and it seems like calibre has support for them as well (did not test that yet). Now I need an Android app, preferably open-source, that can connect to calibre and pull and play audio books and ideally also ebooks in case she wants to read. For me, KOReader does a decent job but the audio book part is sth I was unable to solve so far. Does somebody have a similar use case and solution? Thanks in advance!

    Carburetor and rain

    Hi people, I hope someone can answer this or share their experience. Two days ago, I went through a major thunderstorm with my trusty old '95 GSF600, lots of rain and I periodically went through up to 15 cm deep puddles of water. I noticed after a few minutes that my throttle became ineffective at more than 30° throttle turn. "Above" that, the engine started to sound more like a two stroke and did not deliver additional power. My suspicion is that she ran to rich during that period, could that mak sense? After I exited the storm, everything slowly went back to normal and she seems to be running fine ever since.

    Questions:

    • Why did this happen? (Engine too cool or air intake too humid?)
    • Am I risking any permanent damage by doing such things?
