MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

All I have is a laptop. I'm getting these machines for free from a friend

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I believe you can use DNSSEC directly with root servers.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Check out the dolpin-trained LLMs, he did one for Mistral and one for Phi-2. Uncensored and OSS

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Even OpenAI can't do that lol

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Not OK with his behaviour, definitely OK with Apple coughing up 100 million quid for the bloke and his wife

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I'm OK with any excuse for Apple to lose money. Do not condone his behavior personally

Top EU Court Says There’s No Right To Online Anonymity, Because Copyright Is More Important (www.techdirt.com)

The key problem is that copyright infringement by a private individual is regarded by the court as something so serious that it negates the right to privacy. It’s a sign of the twisted values that copyright has succeeded on imposing on many legal systems. It equates the mere copying of a digital file with serious crimes that...

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Becoming better at technology is the gateway to fucking with copyright. As if they're going to be able to do shit when I torrent their files over some obscure server in the developing world to over here. Fuck copyright and companies who engage in that. Every game, all kinds of media and intellectual property that these companies own should be stolen from them and distributed freely. This should then be followed by severe cyber attacks on said companies to destroy their infrastructure to the extent that they can never hold creations of artists for themselves. Fuck corporate enslavement of artists and creators. I'd much rather pay $200 a month to be distributed directly to artists than pay a single cent for a game/album provided by Microsoft/Spotify (as an example). Now, some companies are better than others. GOG until recently was something I liked (conceptually anyway, since I don't play games), and Qobuz and Tidal pay their artists better than most. I am OK with these companies. The likes of Amazon and Spotify and Microsoft should be destroyed so badly that they can no longer function in this space. We should spread the word of piracy and digital freedom away from these bastards.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Same

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They have more features though, like extra Ethernet, PCIe brackets and M2 slots on the board

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I suppose you're worried about embedded spyware?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Switching to Linux Mobile would be a welcome change, imagine them heading a FOSS Linux distro to run on phones

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Yeah that's probably true

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Running FOSS and taking control of your network will do a far better trick of privacy vs convenience than most people can imagine

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I wish they opensource their framework

MigratingtoLemmy ,

CDs are fantastic if you have the space for them

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Apologies for not answering earlier. I have since switched over to podman generate kube and podman play kube for managing my podman infrastructure. This plays in well with my plans since I can't be dependent on systemd going forward. Thank you for your help.

With that said, I wanted to ask another question: when I try to run a container with podman run debian, it automatically pulls the debian container without a problem, however how is it that when I type podman pull docker.io/debian/debian it requires auth?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

You're right, except the problem was that I was on an old version of Podman (Debian problems lol) where Quadlet wasn't even available

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Use headscale, I have no idea how people are OK with tailscale when they keep your keys and essentially have access to your network

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They're IEMs, and earphones are a colloquialism. Nobody is stuck up if they call it an IEM, if someone doesn't know we extrapolate for them. I don't see the problem.

I am an IEM enjoyer (used to own Softears but don't need them anymore), and I use Debian.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Let's talk about your collection

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Let's have you build a train line to Europe eh?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I once thought of purchasing the big boys (for me, in a relative sense) like the Softears RSV, the IER-M9, the Anole VX and perhaps even the U18T.

Then, I reasoned with myself, and thought I'd settle for less. I began aiming for the DUNU SA6 MK2 (I somewhat treble sensitive and the MK2's graph looked even better to me). Maybe the Oracle OG as a reference set.

Now, I've become cheap. I no longer desire for such luxuries, even though it'd be amazing to have them. I now look at the Audiosense DT600 as my preferred target and IEM, and an apple dongle for my laptop and phone.

I do sometimes wonder about the whatifs...the thing is, amidst all of the thinking I did, I didn't actually buy anything. I'm waiting to be blown away by my endless collection of FLAC when I do get the IEMs I want.

Great collection BTW, but like every other guy on Crinacle's livestream: try not to stay trapped in mid-fi hell. CA Andromedas are cool though. Ever thought of the IER-M9/U12t for a relaxing signature?

MigratingtoLemmy , (edited )

I will mention that even though I haven't bought the IEMs I mentioned, I have tried them. And every one of them blew me away, bar the ones which are a bit "softer" like the M9/U12t (which I think are better buys for the long-term unless someone has a lot to spend). Also, the M9 is exceptionally comfortable for me

EE Odin was notable alongside the Anole VX as very resolving and fabulously textured. These might be the best TOTLs I have tried. If you have a budget of around $500 I'd suggest looking at the Mega5EST, DMS has a review of it on the Heaphone Show and from the FR it's an insanely balanced set.

No worries, and I'm not all that you think lol. I really just got lucky with knowing what I want, and my wallet forcing my hand.

Edit: I didn't know there were shipping issues with the Chinese brands. AFAIK Hifigo/Linsoul/Aliexpress will ship anywhere really

MigratingtoLemmy ,

And I completely forgot to say: wait till you listen to TOTL headphones. I once listened to the HE1000v2 pair, and except for the bright tuning, bloody hell they make you feel like you're part of the sound. It's a tear-inducing feeling, especially if you've never done TOTLs before.

LCDs are also up there, the new LCD-X really hit my warmish-preferences well. I liked that pair. Maybe someday eh?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Tell that to his boss lol

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Don't know about you but I thought forgejo and pixelfed were fairly memorable names. To each their own

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Imagine if systemd was ported as the Windows init manager. (Memes about systemd being inspired by Windows with its bloat).

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I know lol. It was a joke, although I do think that in theory leaner systems like Runit are better. But I cannot dismiss some of the innovation/work done in systemd

MigratingtoLemmy ,

A VPN and the other stuff you mentioned will deal with it

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They do not protect one's privacy if someone is motivated enough, i.e. nation states, or if OP's VPN company sells their information. You can be reasonably assured that Mullvad and IVPN aren't exactly doing that. In terms of obfuscating one's IP, if that's a step towards one's privacy from big tech, then yes good VPNs definitely protect one's privacy

Does the form factor between 3.5" and 2.5" matter in a NAS server? (slrpnk.net)

Been finding some good deals on 2.5 disks lately, but have never bought one before. Have a couple of 3.5 disks on the other hand in my Unraid server. Wondering how much it matters wether I get a 2.5 or not? What form factor do you prefer/usually go for?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Just buy CMR

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I'm still baffled at how good Ollama is on working on paltry hardware like ARM and small VMs. Give it GPUs and it's amazing.

The next step should be to encrypt information at Transit and rest to as to purchase GPU power from the cloud but maintaining client-side encryption throughout. That'll bring even more power to the masses: imagine giving Ollama a Cloud endpoint to remote GPUs which it can compute on without the consumer purchasing any hardware.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

We should have a call for hackers/pentesters/cybersec enthusiasts to find these little shits and break their infrastructure

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I can't deal with nano hotkeys

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Link to tech blog please

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thanks, but the second problem I'm working with (and what I forgot to mention) is that I have no local storage - I would like to write semi-directly to cloud storage. I can probably manage a few GB for caching and that's it.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, but there's another problem: I don't have local storage to write the files to and then upload. I need to write semi-directly to the Cloud.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, yes I realised I'd have to reencode. How would I mount a transparent handbrake compliant FUSE layer?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

The problem is that I don't have the local storage to maintain a watch folder for continually streaming video. I want to write semi-directly to the Cloud, which is why I'm looking for a transparent reencoding layer. Can handbrake do this?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Can handbrake ingest video through an IPC process, reencode and push it to a mount point all without touching local storage?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, I'll take a look.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I'm going to be using an SBC for this, which doesn't have the capacity for an extra storage drive. Also, I'm planning to move in a couple of months, and I wouldn't want to deal with storage in the middle of all of this. The cloud isn't as insanely expensive as I initially thought; B2 is $6/TB, and I hope that with reencoded streams at an OK resolution I wouldn't go beyond 1.5TB a month (I'll be deleting stuff with bucket policies, of course).

I'll take a look at tdarr alongside ffmpeg, thanks!

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I was considering the usual BananaPi/OrangePi/Raxda/Pine64 SBCs, are those not enough horsepower? I'd like to stay under $80 for my SBC purchase, and it will be doing double duty with managing some services like DNS and music scrobbling alongside uploading to the cloud

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you for the tip, I'll keep a look out for VAAPI/VDPAU support. Thanks!

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I plan to reencode on the fly before I push the files to the Cloud. This would have to happen in real-time though, since I don't have the space to cache files (and slow upload speeds)
