Sounds like dogs barking at/with each other in the night back when I was growing up. You’d hear the occasional how-how-hoooooww from one of them, and others would join in. Wolf’ish in some ways. The city I grew up in was much less crowded back then.

Now: I guess self driving cars fill in the void left by dogs not barking at each other anymore.

Nominative determinism is pretty accurate. Steve Jobs did generate a lot of jobs. Bill Gates had a lot of gates to his name.

</joke> just in case it wasn’t obvious

Balls of plastic. Descended from balls of steel 💪

This is the caveat for me for now.

To run locally a powerful graphics card with at least 6 GB VRAM is recommended. Otherwise generating images will take very long!

I’ve got decent RAM on an I9, but my graphics card, which is what matters here, isn’t up to par.

Why not try it for yourself on Linux mint first by installing plasma? Plasma 5 is available on mint - I believe Fedora has plasma 6.

I use plasma 6 on my Opensuse Slowroll laptop and plasma 5 on my LMDE desktop.

Overall, I’ve found plasma 6 to run slightly better (I was on plasma 5 on Slowroll too for a long time).

Once you install and try plasma 5 on your current install, that will be a much less disruptive way to see how well it works for you.

After ricing, both plasma 5 and 6 are pretty similar on my setup. The cube desktop effect isn’t there by default on plasma 5 of course.

Nobody cares about the $135000, I told you!

super productivity is pretty good.

You can also sync between your phone, desktop, etc using different sync options including Dropbox, webdav, local file, etc

Wow, that’s so messed up: I didn’t know HP did that… I think it might just be a matter of time before others follow suit.

Sounds very Wireshark worthy!

That would be cool.

Here’s my new setup that might not work for everyone, but I’d recommend thinking about if you’re able to.

1. Network printers are blocked from Internet by my router. They have static IP addresses allocated (permanent DHCP leases) for convenience.

2. I have some Canon laser printers. I don’t want to install Canon software across my devices, so I setup a cups print server (lxc container) where I installed the software.

3. I setup and shared the printers (local network only), made them discoverable.

4. I use the CUPS web GUI over ssh tunnel if I need to check on job queues and do maintenance/admin tasks (don’t usually have to).

Clients immediately find the printers on the server, no driver required.

As a bonus, I made the margins 0 on the CUPS ppd on the server so that I get to print without margins when so desired (Canon has fixed minimum margins otherwise).

The one caveat is that the Canon drivers don’t work on raspberry pi (arm), so while I have a to-do to get around that by using a virtualization layer, you need a separate Intel/AMD machine for the print server if your printer doesn’t support ARM.

If you want persistent messages, use a messaging app like another poster posted. KDE connect should work, but it doesn’t work for my setup for some reason.

If you just need transient messages, which is more of my usecase, and lightweight sending, use pairdrop.

snapdrop and pairdrop app from fdroid for Android, pairdrop website in desktop.

You can just use the website instead of app on phone too.

Sending over LAN is local - it doesn’t go outside your own network.

If devices are on same WiFi, no pairing required.

You can also send across networks by pairing.

Now onto the four body problem!

Can confirm… sleeping on the floor does wonders to aches and pains.

I’m a bit sad that my favorite (Infinity/Eternity) isn’t that high up. Loved it since my Reddit days. Tried different clients: Lemmy, thunder, liftoff, sync,… still like this the most!

Poor bot did its thing, but the article starts off in a way it can’t handle well it seems.

Hacki is pretty good.

I use fdroid apps whenever possible… This was the only one on fdroid as of a few months ago.

I have a massive subscribe list, and I usually just read subscriptions. I’ll occasionally (maybe once it twice a week) read all, and if I notice interesting communities: subscribe to them too.
