If I remember right, you host a text file on your server. You write short Twitter style texts and can @ mention others and reply to their posts.

It's been a while since I played with it, so I might be wrong.

Ok, so to be very clear, I'm just the average gob responding and don't know anything from shinola.

Ok, so the porch should have rebar or something in it to give it structural support to span that gap in the wall. Was it a doorway originally?

If the porch has lost that much integrity that the wood section is now load bearing, then there are larger issues at play. Perhaps a contractor can give you an idea if structural engineer is necessary.

My father-in-law taught me to do the dishes at family gatherings (with out getting high part). It was one of the greatest gifts anyone had ever given me. Peace, short conversations, and a task to take my mind off the chaos

So, how does one get an invite? Asking for a friend

Yeah, when I served on a jury, the prosecutor was very clear that the only reason someone carried more than $100 in cash was for drugs or other illicit dealings.

Fedora. I've been using it since Fedora Core 1 and was mostly RedHat before that. I don't have time to muck around with my desktop and Fedora almost always just works. I've had too many problems with Ubuntu and Suse and friends. And while I like Arch and Debian and others, I just want my desktop to be point and click. My days off tinkering on my desktop are long gone. Kids, house, work, wife, grandkids, other hobbies keep me busy. I save tinkering for my selfhosting adventures.

Curious how the unit has been performing otherwise. From another of your posts it looks like you planned on installing OMV on it. Any issues in the install? How is performance?

 

Incus Scripts is a collection of tools to simplify the deployment of incus instances. Originally created by tteck, these scripts are now continued by the community. Our goal is to preserve and expand upon tteck's work, providing an ongoing resource for Incus users worldwide.

This project is a fork of community-scripts that is continually updated to work with incus instead of ProxmoxVE.

 

This page has links to ask the talks regarding containers at FOSDEM held Feb 1st and 2nd. Most interesting to me is https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-5742-bringing-application-containers-to-incus/ .

I use the Fossify Gallery app for just that reason.

 

I'm looking for a docking station for my frame.work laptop running Linux. The big ask is I want to be able to hook up to my big monitor with a 3840x2160 resolution (I think it is 8K?).

Has anyone found one that works with that combination of factors?

I've read a bunch of posts on the frame.work forums and looked at a bunch of docks on Amazon, but haven't found one that gives me confidence it'll work.

 

If you recently placed an order, check your email.

Good on them for coming clean so quick.

 

I have a number of email accounts including free services like Gmail and yahoo, as well as private domains I own. I'm looking for a way to pull all of my mail into a local store that I can access using my mail client (Thunderbird). I want to keep the accounts separate from each other. Any recommendations?

 

I ordered two weeks ago making it into the July batch. Got the shipping notification on Monday and received my laptop today. I ordered the DIY i5 edition with 16GB RAM, two USB-C modules, 1 USB-A, an HDMi, and a 1TB storage.

I unpacked everything and assembled it. It really isn't what I would call a DIY experience, all I had to do was install the RAM, SSD, bezel, and input panel.

I booted to the BIOS and disabled secure boot, added the grub UEFI key from prepared USB drive of Fedora 38. My error was not realizing I re-enabled secure boot when I copied the key. Booting from the USB I kept getting the message that I needed to load the kernel first. After reformatting and re-imaging the USB drive a couple of times, I ended up writing the installer image to the 1TB storage module before I realized my error and disabled secure boot again.

Fedora proceeded to install without issue. I followed the install guide on the framework forums. The fingerprint reader did not work, but everything else seems to work out of the box. Took a few minutes to run dnf upgrade and install some software.

Initial thoughts: I like the keyboard, it feels good with a bit of resistance, the key texture isn't a smooth friction-less plastic, almost more like a velvet feeling, kind of rubbery. Rubbery isn't the right word, but I just can't think of a better way to describe it. The display is much more square than what I am use to, so I am going to reserve my judgement on that for now. The screen is matt, another change that will take time to decide whether or not I like it, but it was something I was looking for. Glossy screens reflect too much when working in the light and require looking at it at just the right angle. Chassis feels solid, a bit of heft but lighter than the HP Spectre 13 that I am coming from. The microphone and camera along the top of the screen have built-in slide covers; I don't remember seeing anything about that when I was looking at the Framework, so it was a pleasant surprise.

Looking forward to share more after I have a chance to really make use of it.

 

This looks like it could be amazing. Maybe a self hosting dream, or a flash in the pan.

 

I have 3 different libraries, one for comics, one for TTRPG books, and my main one for actual eBooks. My main library is over 4GB with over 1,000 books.

No, I haven't read all of them, but I am working on it. They have been collected over the last 15 years from Sony eReader store, Kobo books, Amazon Kindle, B&N, Archive.org and other Public Domain books hosts, Humble Bundle, Story Bundle, and various other places.

Largest categories are Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Mystery.

I wish there was a way to link to an Android app.

 

Let's start off with what a container is compared to a virtual machine.
