tiny@midwest.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•How to have a boring and low-maintenance system?English1·1 month agoI use fedora and Ansible to fix things I want to be different all the time. After I install the OS I run Ansible pull and it makes all the changes I want
tiny@midwest.socialto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Is there a FOSS Linkedin alternative?English12·1 month agoThe closest thing to foss LinkedIn would be the repos, forums, and chats for open source projects. Some of them have other dedicated channels for jobs other times it’s you know this person and they see you are looking for work and they tell their friends. There is not a drop in replacement for LinkedIn that is open source. The biggest value of LinkedIn is a network effect so even if it did exist not using LinkedIn would make finding a new job harder since you couldn’t find opportunities that are only posted on LinkedIn.
Side note LinkedIn is gross they serve ads in your dms and notifications
I use evolution and it works well for everything besides my work Gmail but that has more to do with security policies than evolution
All my configs are in gitlab or a self hosted forgejo server and all files are in seafile or a self hosted service running on proxmox. Then I use proxmox backup server on a storage VPS for off-site backup

tiny@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you do for "idle time" on your phone?English4·2 months agoI have miniflux setup for RSS feeds, and I’ll doom scroll lemmy. For games I emulate old pokemon games. You can also just get lost in your thoughts for a bit too. It can really be good for your brain to just sit with your thoughts for a while.
Depends on budget but if your budget is above $800 get a framework they are awesome and work great with Linux if your budget is below that look at an e series Thinkpad or used thinkpad on eBay that fits your budget
Both USBC ports work fine for charging and USB but they do not work with my thunderbolt doc
I have loved my AMD framework . 3:2 aspect ratio took awhile to get used to but I love it now. Only thing I need to figure out getting the USB c ports to work but everything else has worked flawlessly
tiny@midwest.socialto Privacy@lemmy.ml•SimpleX > Signal; Matrix for privacy and anti-censorshipEnglish41·4 months agoThere is a signal legal entity that can fail and take out all of signal which is less true with matrix since there are multiple client and server implementations the only thing a government can achieve by breaking a single entity is disrupt governance
tiny@midwest.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Is anyone here using an enterprise Linux distro?English2·5 months agoI tried a couple of times but prefer fedora over redhat on lab servers and desktops. Fedora is easier to upgrade between releases and you get features faster and it’s just as stable. The only time I use enterprise oses in my lab is for things that are picky about the os they run on

tiny@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's your relationship like with your grandparents?English2·7 months agoBoth grandpas are dead but all 4 are amazing and I wish I saw my grandma’s more. I never learned a ton about their past first hand besides my dad’s dad who told me about Korea. I mostly talk about what’s going on not the past. Sometimes it feels like seeing a teacher or coach outside of school when we talk about the past because you saw them as grandparents and not normal people.
tiny@midwest.socialto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•I am 40 and a nurse. Would it be more beneficial to get a cyber security degree? Instead of bouncing around the countries as a traveling nurse?English3·7 months agoI don’t think so. You need to get a large amount of training before you can make a comparable salary, and if you do get a high paying cyber security job there’s still a good chance of it being stressful. You can see if you like it using the free tier of try hack me, and if you love it and can afford to take the paycut it might make sense but you are probably better off finding a way to use your existing skills than aquiring new ones
Immich is the best photo solution I have used and has been really easy to setup. Nextcloud apps are usually ok but usually have a more specialized alternative
tiny@midwest.socialto Linux@lemmy.ml•Porting systemd to musl libc-powered LinuxEnglish191·8 months agoI want to try alpine out but the lack of systemd support is a blocker since I don’t want to add openrc support to all my Ansible playbooks that rely on systemd services and timers
This depends on how you discover music. Usually radio or top lists don’t cover major political issues since it makes half their audience angry. Also it can take a bit to get a song written, recorded, mixed, mastered and released in most cases.
Im into metal and there are some artists that release amazing protest songs
