linuxmemes@lemmy.world•Probably a good idea to go see how much storage will be necessary...
3·2 months agoVery interested in your setup for that opi2w. I have one that is being retired from pihole duty that I’ll be doing similar to. Also want to add an sdr to it so it can pull ghostnet js8call and the like.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Spotifies come and Spotifies go, but that folder of badly-sorted MP3s will still be there in the 2050s.

It’s half a terabyte and I’ve found all sorts of shit in there, but I doubt I’ll ever get it organized. I mocks me in defiance.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's something you started doing arbitrarily that's been really positive for you?
5·5 months agoThe thought of this terrifies me. I should do it.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•You get new speakers or you start your music library from scratch. Which is the first song/album you play?
3·5 months agoDJ Shadow - Endtroducing
I have listened to this album more times than anything else I own. I’m on my third copy of it after wearing out the original pressing I have from the 90’s and the repressing from 10 years ago. I know every sample, every soundscape, and it almost brings me to tears every time I drop the needle on it. So many memories of good times where this was the soundtrack. So many friends, now gone, walk next to me again when that album plays.
I miss you, Isaac.

Linux@lemmy.ml•German state gov. ditching Windows for Linux, 30K workers migrating
21·8 months agoNot really. It can all be faked. Virtual Directory Servers are a thing. Live javascript transformation of data from a non MS LDAP server, functioning as AD. Just match up the schema, and go. You get real multi master replication (no idea if MS has this now, but they didn’t at the time) and an actually performant server. Plus all the logs just pipe over to your syslog server so you don’t have to rdp into a server and look at event viewer. It can all be done from the shell on the jump server you use to manage everything else.

2·8 months agoAD is just LDAP with extra steps.
Gentoo. They’re talking about Gentoo.
I’ve managed to banish all but one windows and one osx install from my house. What’s stopping me is a bazillion little windows utility programs for things like updating firmware on radios and such, and some hardware integrated commercial software: Ableton Live, and Serato DJ. I’ve tried lmms, mixxx, ardour, xwax, and many others. I just haven’t been able to be creative with making and mixing music with the open source tools out there. Mixxx is getting really close, but doesn’t have video integration last I checked.
I keep asking these two companies when they will put out a build for linux and have been met with varied responses from corpo garbage to laughter. It’s disappointing.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Interface_Tool
It’s a menu driven system management tool for IBM’s AIX unix variant. Oddly enough, even Wikipedia shows the relationship from SMIT to YaST. Instead of just smile and nod, next time make up something about “smitty print” (damn near everything was under the “print submenu”, ostensibly because you were printing out the config to screen), and look like you are a grizzled veteran of corporate unix from the days of yore.
:-)
I always viewed YaST as SMIT(ty) for linux. Haven’t looked at suse in forever, though.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What app is so useless, you can't believe it costs money?
11·10 months agoI’m delusional, then. Spotify hasn’t paid me a red cent, but piracy has indirectly put money in my pocket and food on my table.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What app is so useless, you can't believe it costs money?
11·10 months agoSometimes it does. Piracy drives up sales of traditional media (think: vinyl), as well as increasing crowd size at live performances. Also, merch sales scale with awareness of an artist. All of these things equal the payout of millions of plays on spoffy.

I would say grep, sed, awk and the like.
