Thx for the docspell tip - looks like something i was searching for

Thats it … Thats how i do it in every distro inluding nix-env and i’m eine

No need to overengeneer

Right now … You’re looking at my comment

Did you have to leave reddid because you have a girlfriend?

… Asking for a friend

haha - nice … didn’t know udiskie but gets on my toolbelt list immediately … thx fellow-penguin

not wanting to throw you into any bucket … just want to point out that your argumentation isn’t 100% valid

like this comment … are you saying, because they sell the most “in(!)-ear” headphones, they must be the leader of high quality on-ear headohones with anc etc?

if you think so - thats fine, i personally don’t

still you bought a pair of 500$ headphones from apple where you’d get “semi-professional” ones from the leaders of that segment for the same price range (bose, senheiser, sony)

for audio fanatics those 500$ seem insane as well … just saying

apple is working on that as well :)

i mean if i think about the magic mouse with the touch guestures to scroll for example - even if logitech is doing a much better job, they just dont get access to the api to implement the smooth scrolling like you get with apple products

its those things which makes apple a nogo for me … and of course the crazy prices

but i get old and tired of hating … i just buy the stock and benefit from the users who are ok with all that

i do know them … they even get a step further and are wirking on a “box” where you can use your mainboard if someday they offer an updated one for the laptop case, so you can use the old one for a server box or sth

i do like those as well … i just wanted to make my point that even for a company where i refuse to buy something from, there are some things which impress me

nah friend … the opposite of a victim of marketing campaign … i don’t touch apple devices because of the walled garden they built and the prices they do

i was mainly talking about the mac pro’s case design and the modular setup … thats extremely appealing in my personal perspective.

i do not know if they stand the challange of time, but the mac pro for sure impressed me even if i get called a apple-hater in my personal circle of friends

so don’t mistake me for a fanboy - but i do pay respect for things which imoress me.

if you check my prev comment you’ll see that i especially point oit that they ask for crazy prices (monitor stand, mac pro wheels, thunderbold cable … god even the whipes carry something like 1000% apple tax) … still the mac pro case seems pretty cool to me

not an apple product fan for sure ) see comment before

but if you take a look at the (of course overprized) mac pro i think the overengeneering is understandable … thats pure hardware porn, even the venting holes are drilled to reduce sound

as said i only own one apple “product” … the stock, because zhey have a crazy fanbase which will cultishly defend every messup … but the mac pro is a masterpiece of hardware

… shoud run linux thou

thats why i own apple stocks. as long as consumers are defending the company for even the craziest prizes - i’d be fine

monitor stand 1k … no problem https://www.apple.com/at/shop/product/MWUG2D/A/pro-stand

wheels for 800 … no problem https://www.apple.com/at/shop/product/MX572ZM/A/apple-mac-pro-rollen-kit

thunderbold cable for 179 … no problem https://www.apple.com/at/shop/product/MWP02ZM/A/thunderbolt-4-pro-kabel-3-m

i’m happy when you are … paying 500 for the headphones is ok if it makes you happy … not for the value of the headphones, but your happyness is worth much more

thats exactly why i bought my dirt cheap x1 3rd gen

here you go:

EMOTIONAL_SUPPORT: You're doing great!

mint for my laptop running awesomewm and lightened it up a bit - To have a no-thrills always works never complaints machine.

fedora server edition plus awesomewm for my desktop

agree! don’t make your setup a lab and leave for a month!

i did mine with zerotier because of the easy and quick setup but will change to tailscale somewhen.

there are better options than opening up the ssh port if you want to play it safe

nice wiki!

browsers are not the only way to watch YouTube … mpv is older than most of his machines ;)

but yeah - i get the point

nevertheless there is a lot you can do with aged hardware - there are lots of desktops/windowmanagers which will happily run as well
