I just meant like if Joplin ever stopped working or vanished overnight. I know it might seem like a contrived scenario, but I’ve always been a little skittish about apps that don’t store files in plain text in case I want/need to use a different editor. Sounds like that hasn’t been an issue for you, though, which is cool.

I see Logseq recommended a lot, but does it still try to force you to use bullet lists only?

Do you ever regret that Joplin does not store notes in plain text? (meaning you couldn’t edit your notes in a plain text editor if you wanted to)

I’m running Linux Mint Cinnamon (X11) on a laptop w/ Tiger VNC Server, and I’m connecting to it from another laptop running Fedora Silverblue w/ Gnome (Wayland).

Does ssh mean command line only or is there such a thing as graphical remote desktop sharing over ssh?

I’m looking for a graphical remote desktop experience.

EDIT: I may have answered my own question. With some searching, I stumbled upon this guide for remote desktop sharing by establishing a VNC session through an SSH tunnel. In the guide, the author uses TigerVNC. I’ll have to explore this some more when I have time later on.

Thanks for the tip. I’ve installed TigerVNC server on the host machine and connected to it from another laptop. Now my problem is that when I connect, it takes me to a clean session instead of showing me the existing session. A quick internet search and I stumbled upon x0vncserver, but no instructions how to install it. Or is it already installed? When I issue x0vncserver on the host, I get x0vncserver: command not found . Any tips on what I should try or search next?

I’m not following. I understand how Gas Buddy works (crowd sourced data entry), but how does that preclude free and open source software? For example, look at OpenStreetMap, open license database w/ a whole ecosystem of free and open source apps built around it.

raspberry pi and an HDD with family (remote)

Is this the way to go for off-site backups w/ family? In terms of low power draw, uptime, etc.

I’ll have to look into these. Thanks for the tip!

This was my thought as well, but I figured I’d put it out there anyway just in case there’s some kinda workaround/magic that I hadn’t heard about yet.

Clown take. This comment would make a lot more sense if the original post were made by some cry baby throwing a tantrum after getting spawn camped; however, in this case, the original post is spreading the word about how and where a product’s dev team can be reached going forward (and how/where they cannot be reached anymore). We very much need these kinds of announcements.

Correct, they’ve been sealed since I filled them three weeks ago. Thanks for explaining a little more around how gas degrades.

Thanks for weighing in. It would be going into a Mazda 3 or a Honda CRV.

Very handy - thank you!

For those who don’t feel like clicking that link, it’s a web page where you enter your home instance’s URL, and then it lists other instances in four categories:

• Dead instances - Instances that have not been seen for 2 days (I believe this is where other instances that have defederated with the home instance show up)
• Failing instances - Instances where the last outgoing event failed to send
• Lagging instances - Instances where send is working but last send was at least 10 minutes ago. This is also the case if no activity has happened on your instance in the last 10 minutes.
• Up to date instances - Instances where sends are succeeding as expected

It just can’t. This candle is burning fast at both ends.

I hope you’re right b/c right now feels like the classic “market can stay irrational longer than we can stay liquid” type situation.

you can use one of a million Jitsi instances (Element has a publicly available one)

Is there a list of public Jitsi instances? I know about https://meet.jit.si/, but otherwise I’m stumped. Searching DDG for jitsi instances returns a bunch of results about self hosting.

I don’t have any direct advice, just that there’s a thread in one of the Linux communities where the OP is asking for help with ydotool. You might find some good tips in that thread.

ETA a link to my post from last year about emulating mouse clicks via keyboard shortcuts. I never followed through and got it working the way I wanted, but through my research and troubleshooting I stumbled upon several tools and tutorials, which I linked in the top level post and one of which might (hopefully) help you.

Good luck, and please post an update if and when you figure out how to resolve your issue. Thanks!

10 commodity SSDs through a powered USB hub forming a poor man’s NAS with snapraid + mergerfs

How did you end up with this setup? Did you just already have a bunch of SSDs from over the years? That’d be cool af if you posted a photo of it.

For the NAS, what do you use for storage? Do you have an external drive hooked up via USB or something else?
