Yeah, I love NC but boy is it a pain. If there were a similar but less bulky, less clunky option that wasn't a pain to maintain, I'd be all over that.

Yeah, seconded on Tailscale. I love how easy it is to get working. Only fear is the recent announcement of venture funding and future enshitification, but right now it's amazing.

Yeah, I didn't want to be not supportive of your choice of distros, but my immediate thought was not Ubuntu... I use it headless for some homelab servers, but nowadays as far as desktops go, Ubuntu is not it.

Someone below mentioned Aurora, Bazzite's sister. I currently use Bluefin, which is another of Bazzite's sisters, also on Framework, and it has been pretty set it and forget it. They're all "atomic" desktops in that it's hard to be able change the underlaying important parts of your computer, while you have free reign on all the bits that aren't important to keep the lights on. Updates happen frequently, but don't touch your files on top, so it's always the latest, and if something does break, you can easily boot up into the last image you were on.

If you're not looking to tweak your computer too much and just want it to run, I'd recommend Aurora or Bluefin depending on your desktop preferences.

Did you actually? Or are you carrying that over from reddit? 'Cause I actually have a similar one to that 😅

I read about Tailscale securing funding and also was scared enshitification would ensue. I really hope their promise to keep non-enterprise as it is and not claw it back is true. I am way too relient on that now 🫤

I vote with them, because there's no other choice, but if Democrats were given a magic lamp with three wishes, they'd negotiate it down to one and then wish for something they thought the republicans would like.

Yup, Sargent at Arms of both the House and Senate, as well as the United States Capitol Police.

That's not quite right. US Marshals are literally an agency of the Dept of Justice and part of the executive. The judicial branch is the only one of the three without any law enforcement.

That said, in normal times Marshals are tasked with protecting the judicial, and being the judicial law enforcement, but that comes from the executive.

It's openid so it should work. Though their web finger validation wasn't quite straightforward when I did it.

I just got Authentik set up as my first SSO. Has anyone tried this?

It's literally chatgpt, or one of the other AIs. They're all spitting out the same nonsense.

This would just be a way for you to see what qbittorent is doing from your phone. In qbit you'd turn on a few settings and then point this app to what you just turned on, and then see what's downloading from your phone.

The app isn't doing anything beyond taking interpreting what your other programs (e.g., qbit, sonarr, radarr, etc) are doing while you're away. Depending on the program you could also tell it to download something, but that's all still happening on your laptop. Your phone is just the middle man.
