    Do you use Discord or Matrix?

    Jump

  • I mainly use Matrix for myself, my family, and have rooms set up for a community.

    Discord I have and use as a couple groups of friends are still and basically every game dev uses Discord now and you have to go to Discord to find out any info about the game, look up tips/hints, or even report bugs. FUN!

  • Well aware. And I trust Proton more than my local ISP.

  • Because the average person doesn't have a clue and they never think about this kind of thing. I've been called a conspiracy theorist by my own father as well as othesr for mentioning Snowden revalatins and using a VPN and all the privacy steps I take on the web.

  • YSK: You can and should freeze your credit reporting accounts at all 3 providers (for US users)

    Jump

  • We can thank US Government for FORCING these companies to allow you to freeze your credit report. It used to be a state by state thing, else you had to pay them like $10 to freeze and unfreeze, unless you had PROOF that your identity was stolen.

    Especially considering Equifax had that little "oopsy" (they already leaked all your personal info) 7 years ago, you should absolutely 100% freeze your credit report.

    YES you have to unfreeze it when you're needed to check your credit, but how often does that happen?

    Honestly it's a great excuse to turn down a pushy salesman as well. "Well I really wanna buy this car, but I have to unfreeze my credit report first and my info is at home, so I'll be back."

    And do you REALLY need that 10th credit card for get that $10 coupon for Khols? Nah.

    It's a bit of work to set up, but once you set it up don't forget you get a free credit report yearly from each bureau. So space them out every 4 months and then check them yearly.

  • Has Google’s search results drastically declined for anyone else?

  • I stopped using it years ago because they were going downhill and still collecting your private information. I run my own SearXNG now. It proxies from multiple sources, no ads, no tracking. I really enjoy SearXNG as it's mine.

  • LibRedirect - privacy-friendly Redirector

    Jump

  • libreddit is the Reddit front end. Reddit did something, it seems they blocked IP addresses. There are ways around it and folks do have some instances, but there's sitll a lot out there that don't work. You can rung your own libreddit and put it through Cloudflare's bridge thing and then point libredirect to your own libreddit for stability.

  • Wow! Thanks for sharing amd all the detail. Amazing stuff. Loved reading it.

  • GNOME and AppIndicator/system tray

    Jump

  • Their design was more mobile type wherr you don't minimize windows, you just switch between them or between spaces. I've used Gnome forever, including the rough times on Gnome 3.0, and I've always used a system tray as well. Never liked leaving clutter everywhere and imo it goes against the minimal design. But thankfully easily extendible.

  • This is literally the self-hosted community. I'm talking about self-hosted livestreaming platform. If you want to call it a blog + video, ok sure. Everything is basically a rehash of everything else. Just trying to share some self-hosted information. And I'm not the dev of Owncast or anything, just someone trying to make others aware of self-hosting software.

  • [Promoting] GabeK: Thank you for making Owncast a success in 2023

    Jump

  • I'm not understanding what you're stating. Me streaming a video game isn't blogging. If you mean that there isn't a list of folks all streaming, well there's https://directory.owncast.com to find folks. If you mean only you can stream to it, well that's not true as you can set up multiple stream keys and allow others to stream to it as well. So I'm really not understanding what you're stating.

  • [Promoting] GabeK: Thank you for making Owncast a success in 2023

    Jump

  • Nope. Full self hosted livestreaming. I personally use it to stream games. I started a communit at !owncast/lemmy.world and I've listed a few different streams. Some folks game, classic movies, music, etc. It's your own self hosted Twitch or YT streaming, etc.

  • [Resolved] Debian 12: trying to auto-mount a NTFS-formatted hard drive by making an entry in fstab. Getting the error "mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 18 -- ignored"

    Jump

  • But you have a space in there. I don't know how spaces are handled in fstab. You'll either need to quote it or at least escape the space:

    UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 '/media/lucky/New Volume' ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

    OR

    UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 /media/lucky/New\ Volume ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

    The space is absolutely an issue in fstab as it's thinking "Volume" is the filesystem type and ntfs goes into your options, etc.

    Jump

  • You've made a directory path literally called

    /media/lucky/New Volume

    ?

    That REALLY doesn't seem like a good idea considering that *'s are wildcards for anything, and Linux isn't really fond of spaces.

    The error basically tells you that you have an error on line 18, which I'm assuming is this line you're stating and that it's ignored that line so that it can still go on and mount other things.

    Most likely you'd want something like:

    # mkdir /media/lucky/NewVol

    and then your fstab would be:

    UUID=D4C0A66EC0A65710 /media/lucky/NewVol ntfs rw,auto,users,exec,nls=utf8,umask=003,gid=46,uid=1000 0 0

    Also do you have a lib or something for linux to handle NTFS file system types? I haven't run Windows in 17 years now, so I don't have a clue if Linux can natively handle NTFS.

    You can also run:

    # lsblk

    or

    # blkid

    to get the storage information and verify the storage UUID is correct.
