and I know it’s not everyone’s cuppa

I enjoy all manifestations of the melodic muse.

It can’t be censored or taken down

I know nothing of Plebbit, however, even as a huge privacy and freedom of speech advocate, I have issue with uncensored social media. There is a huge difference between freedom and freedumb. Total freedumb equals total chaos. Freedumb seems to be trending, and if all the freedumb loving people want to congregate in one place to spew their bile and hatred at each other, fine…I won’t engage. The problem occurs when freedumb loving people want to export that hatred and bile to other social media thinking just because they fly the freedumb flag, everyone else should too. I ‘helped’ beta test Gab when if first started, and immediately dropped it. It was clear early on who their clientele would be: Hate mongering racists.

Some things, in my most humble opinion, should be censored such as hate speech and overt racism. LBJ, tho he had his own issues with racism, said a truth that still stands today in that, if you give a man someone to hate, they will bend over and willingly spread their cheeks for your amusement. No one slipped me a note up in the slot while I was in utero and asked me what I wanted to be when I got out. Hmmmm…lets see…oh WHITE definitely. It’s stupidity of the highest order to hate someone for their skin pigment when I myself, like them, had no choice in the matter. It’s probably not a popular opinion but these things should be censored.

Where do you house these music releases? I’m always down to listen to new tunes. Oh, and tho I’ve never run Ghost, I hear a lot of great things about it. Might be something to look into.

since I document almost everything I’ve tried

I worked in the construction field as a mech eng in hvac. The rule of thumb then was ‘If you didn’t write it down, it didn’t happen’. So that sort of carried over to my personal life as well. I document just about everything I enter into a terminal. I probably spend as much time in a notepad as I do in a terminal, but it has saved my ass on so many occasions, especially with my shit memory. And I can step by step through stuff I’ve already tried so I don’t waste time reinventing the wheel. Like right now I am in a battle with AIDE and trying getting it to write to the db ffs, so it can remember what it already scanned.

Here’s a recent example

Yeah…that’s way over my head. LOL I mean, I know what Incus is, but beyond that, hell I do good just understanding Docker, which really is a pretty nifty way to do things on a server. Maybe one day I’ll get there, perhaps after K8s, but by that time there will be something else to learn.

(I’m an undergrad)

What are you studying? I read your resume. I assume you are working towards something in the IT field.

windows pipes

Wow! Just had a flashback to the screensaver era. If you’re ever bored, there is some neat history behind the Flying Toasters screensaver.

Which would place it somewhere in Cali.

Ducking around

Actually, I knew that Neko is the Japanese word for cat, but it never dawned on me it’s supposed to be a part of the naming nomenclature. It’s kind of clever marketing.

I use the Obsidian web clipper

Probably a silly question but, does the webclipper work for the selfhosted version or just the Windows version.

I use Readeck for ‘read it later’ type documents or articles, and Karakeep for data preservation. The only downside that I can think of with Readeck is that there is no real ‘one click export’ of the database housing all your articles. However, you can download the entire folder containing the database and all the zip files and transport them to a new server or make it a backup. Other than that, Readeck checks my boxes. It has an iOS app and an extension for Firefox…not sure about chrome as I avoid it like the plague.

Watching this thread. I too would like to dip into Ansible. Looks like a really powerful way to automate things.

That sounds very appealing. I’ll check it out.

Of the tops out there, btop is my favorite followed by glances. They are all useful, I just like the way btop presents the data

I had previously thought about a wiki or as one person suggested a ‘notes blog’. Still toying with all the options.

I downloaded the windows version of emacs and I’ll give it a go. I figured, I could test it out locally and if it checks out, I could move it to the server. It’s easier to uninstall from windows as I just fire up Revo and let it eat. Thanks for the suggestion.

I deployed it on the test server, but it was getting kind of late and this old man needs his night meds accompanied by a bowl…for a nightly muse with some free form jazz… :) I will get into it on the morrow, and let you know. I do appreciate your input.

Can you be more specific about the features you’re looking for?

Well, so far, of those I’ve tried that were recommended in this thread, something along the lines of what I posted further down: https://lemmy.world/post/30511835/17370680. I like the way I can search Obsidian and it gives me the left hand side with all the choices, and highlights the selected choice. Sometimes I can only remember a part or work I’m searching for, so having a multitude of choices ready for me to choose, is very nice. I haven’t tried all the recommendations here, and I haven’t settled on Obsidian, but so far it’s checking a lot of boxes.

Although I call it a “blog”,

You know, I did have an idea about just such a thing, tho it would be private. I gave your ‘blog’ a bookmark and will definitely check quarto

Took a look at the git. I’ve got it on the list.

So far, I really like how Obsidian searches and gives you a list in the left hand side, and highlights the chosen result. That’s very nice. I haven’t settled on Obsidian yet. Still need to try out the rest of the recommendations from the kind folks here, however it’s definitely in the running.

Thanks
