But why, why not just simply exist already

Just get 987 neighbors to install one

For self hosting I run a separate machine with unraid which basically makes it super simple.

As far as learning Linux its tough because there are so many different ways to do things it mostly depends on what you choose. For desktop I mostly just hit the super key and search for settings or whatever I need, I never really open the terminal except for the one time I needed to disable the thunderbolt reset when connecting my eGPU.

For self hosting its mostly learning about containers whether its podman which I think theres a flatpak in bazaar, or using distroshelf which is preinstalled. Or using a separate machine with something like proxmox, truenas, or unraid.

After that the most you do is go to the application store and tell the container where to save the config files and where to access data, maybe change a port if its already used.

After that you want to setup a VPN to your home with something like wireguard or tailscale

The jerk-it notification, its time to go relieve yourself

For dark table import I make the folder structure like this

$(EXIF.YEAR)/$(EXIF.MONTH)/$(EXIF.DAY)

And the rename like this

$(EXIF.YEAR)-$(EXIF.MONTH)-$(EXIF.DAY)_$(EXIF.HOUR)$(EXIF.MINUTE)$(EXIF.SECOND)_$(EXIF.MODEL)_$(SEQUENCE).$(FILE_EXTENSION)

This gets saved to a photos folder on my external drive that also gets sync’d to my nas at home with syncthingy

I used to use photo rapid downloader which was really nice but haven’t figured out how to use it on bazzite

Photo rapid downloader is probably what you want if you are also doing videos. Just make sure you get the destinations and naming setup for both photo and video before doing a big batch

I used to split up my photos by format also but gave that up after I couldn’t get photo rapid on bazzite and just switched to darktable import

Same way I say arch, but without the ch

Thats cool, but is there a way to replace that giant finger cursor

OK I didnt know you could run older games from windows xp through steam I’ll try to figure it out, I was watching a video last night about using lutris and how to mount the iso from archive.org

Yeah but the steam one seems kind of sketch reading the reviews

What can I use to play kingdom under fire a war of heroes I think it was on windows xp

Very cool, I recently got a solar panel and battery. Now I wish I got a battery that could input more from the panel. The panel is supposed to be 100w but the battery only takes 65w when running my tablet I discharge it at like 68w because thats what the USB c input taps out at but it uses around 100w at full tilt so I can’t charge the battery enough and can’t charge my tablet enough

The only issue now on my camping gaming setup is the glare.

I want to do something with solar for my homelab, even if it only ran off solar partially each day would be super nice
