The ads of this company called Airback that was making this backpacks where you could fit more stuff thanks to a built-in vacuum system appeared on my feed multiple times, but since the smallest bag they were making wasn't small enough to be used as free bag for lowcost companies I never really considered them. Now though I see there is a new model on their website called Airback Go that is made exactly for that purpose, and so I was wondering: does anyone here have actually tried it (or its bigger brother)? How is the quality of the backpacks? Is the vacuum thing something worth the price or it's more of a marketing strategy?

I'm currently running a Nextcloud instance in docker, using the "multiple containers" method, but I recently discovered that the reccomended method to run it is using this "All In One" image I previously didn't know about, and so I wanted to try to migrate to that setup (also in order to have easily also the office and whiteboard features that atm I don't have on my instance + have easier Backup-restore process)

The problem is that on my server I'm using traefik as a reverse proxy to expose services to the internet, and it is working on a specific docker network (called traefik_net) where also every container that should be exposed is connected, and from the official documentation of Nextcloud AIO I really don't understand how am I supposed to configure it to work in a setup like mine (mainly because the mastercontainer creates all the containers it needs on a network called nextcloud_aio and I didn't find a way to change that and where to set the proper traefik lables)

Anyone that is running AIO behind a traefik reverse proxy maybe can help me to understand?

I was previously using PopOS! 22.04 on my tuxedo laptop and I'd installed on it Howdy to take advantage of the IR camera and have a windows hello alike face recognition feature.

Everything was working fine, but after some time GNOME 46 and its new goodies were too tempting to stick with Pop's old GNOME version (at least for me) and therefore I switched to Ubuntu 24.04

However, when I tried to install howdy using the PPAs as I did with Pop I noticed it wasn't working because of some changes that were made regarding on how Python is managed, and I couldn't find a solution for that. Looking at howdy's GitHub issues, there are a lot of them talking about this problem that seems to be started with 23.x versions already, but having so many issues created a bit too much confusion to me and I didn't manage to find a working solution from there.

Is there anyone here using Howdy on Ubuntu 24.04? How have you managed to install it?

Yesterday I was trying to install the Ubisoft version of AC Odissey on my PopOS! machine, and I wasn't able to do so because when I try to launch Ubisoft Connect from Lutris, it asks me to do the login and then shows only a black rectangle.

I tried looking online for a solution but as far as I understood it's a problem of the new Ubisoft Connect UI and I wasn't able to find any fix... can someone help?

It really sucks because it prevents me to play some games that are supposed to run on Linux just because at the time I bought them on Ubisoft Connect instead of Steam :/

I've recently bought my first Tuxedo laptop, an InfinityBook Pro 16 - Gen8 and after having some minor issues with Fedora on it (mainly with the Tuxedo Control Center) I moved to PopOS! and since then it worked flawlessly. Or at least, it used to work flawlessly until last week, when the laptop started to reboot at (apparently) random points of its usage. This is REALLY annoying.

Does anyone encountered the same issue? Have you identified its causes? And how have you fixed it?

I recently finished the episode of The Verge's podcast #Decoder with the interview to Bluesky's CEO and it seems a quite interesting project. At the beginning I wasn't looking really into it because of their choice of using a new protocol instead of the existing ActivityPub, but after listening to her and the reasons behind this choice maybe I'll give them a chance.

What do you think? Do you use it alongside with the fediverse?

A couple of years ago with my old phone (running if I don't remember wrong Android Pie) and my old laptop (running Manjaro KDE) I discovered KDEConnect and how it could enable a clipboard sharing feature similar to the one Apple provides between Macs and iPhones. It was great! Now, after having changed both my phone (now running Android 14) and my laptop (now running PopOS! 22.04) I wanted to reproduce that magic but I found out that with Android 10 some complications regarding clipboard sharing arrived and so it doesn't work out-of-the-box anymore :(

I found some saying that the only way to do that was by the persistent notification button (still ok but meh) and some others reccomending some adb commands to make it work as it was before (which would be great but I wanted to investigate a bit more before pasting some random commands to my terminal)... but it was all kinda old content (referring to Android 10 or at most 11), what's the situation as of today? Do you use clipboard sync? And if so, how?

L'alternativa self-hosted a Google Photos Immich ha indetto (già due settimane fa in realtà, ma io lo scopro ora) un contest per un nuovo logo visto che quello attuale per quanto caratteristico non è ideale per diversi motivi (primo tra tutti secondo me fa apparire il progetto come qualcosa ancora di acerbo e sperimentale, piuttosto che una valida alternativa a servizi come Google Photos o iCloud Photos)

In palio $200 per l'autore del logo che verrà scelto, quindi se vi divertite a cimentarvi nella grafica digitale e nel design perché non provare?

Altrimenti (se vi va) date un occhio alle proposte fatte fin'ora e votate la vostra preferita! A me piace molto la proposta di Tyree :)

Since I recently set up a decently powerful homelab, with a bunch of services running on docker behind traefik, I thought it would have been cool to try out selfhosting a matrix homeserver for personal use (at the beginning it will be just me, potentially it will extend to some friends and/or a small organization of around 20 people working together). At first I was thinking about going with Dendrite, but then I've seen it still doesn't support Threads, nor Matrix 1.5 API and that despite the announcement of a couple of months ago its repo hasn't yet be moved to the new element-hq GitHub as it happened with Synapse. This made it seem kinda like a "2nd class citizen" compared to Synapse, and therefore made me think if the latter would have been a better option to selfhost. And then I bumped into Conduit.rs so now I have 3 option to be undecided about!

Therefore, here I am asking for your preferences and advices: which is your favourite one / which one would you recommend for my use-case?

I know this question has been asked many and many times, but a) this kind of things can change with time (bugs may get fixed or appear, new generations can fix hw problems and get new ones, etc.) and b) I didn’t find it on Lemmy yet (but maybe this is just me being bad searching stuff in the fediverse), so here it is once again.

So, I need to buy a new laptop and I’m undecided between those two machines that, from what I’ve seen, are very very similar, but not exactly the same (apart from the chassis, that should be exactly the same, right?)… What are some differences I could use to decide?

And, if you own one of this two, would you recommend it? Why/Why not?

In the last months, the battery of my S2 tablet was draining really quickly, untill it died and I wasn’t able to recharge it. So, I thought that the battery was dead (it served me for a bunch of years so it could have been acceptable) and I ordered on Amazon a new battery to replace it.

After replacing the battery, though, the tablet turned on saying the new battery was at 50% and, when plugged in, it was acting as if it was charging. Apart from the fact that it wasn’t charging the battery that instead was quickly draining even if plugged in.

Obviously I tried cleaning the charging port, changing cable, changing power adapter, changing socket on the wall, but nothing worked. So I assumed that the new battery they sent me was broken and I purchased a new one but when it arrived: exactly same situation.

Could it be that I was very unlucky and I got a broken new battery twice? Or maybe the problem is somewhere else? Did anyone encounter a similar issue?

I’m finally moving my selfhosting experiments from a VPS to a physical machine in my house but, since I don’t have a static IP address, I opted to use the dynamic dns service offered by Cloudflare.

On their official website I’ve seen suggested ddclient but I haven’t find that much information on which labels should I add to set it up. Therefore, I’ve also found this docker image that seems pretty clean and easy to set up, but the video talking about it was of 3 years ago and I’ve seen that the github repository has been archived last year…

Which option (not necessarily among the two above) do you prefer to set up your Dynamic DNS with Cloudflare? (I don’t know if this can be an important information to add or not, but the Linux server I’m using is running NixOS)

Ciao amici di LeAlternative, vengo qui da voi in cerca di un parere:

Sto iniziando assieme a due amici un nuovo progetto che potenzialmente in futuro dovrebbe coinvolgere molte più persone e, siccome per progetti simili in passato si è sempre utilizzata una combo GSuite+Slack che si è sempre rivelata vincente, loro due hanno provveduto subito a creare la prima cartella condivisa su Drive. Tuttavia, siccome appunto si tratta di un progetto nuovo, pensavo che potrebbe essere l’occasione giusta per proporre strumenti liberi alternativi a i soliti che usiamo, anche perché potrebbe essere un buon modo per raggiungere con tali strumenti persone non tech-savy e che non si sono mai interessati della loro privacy online prima d’ora.

Per quanto riguarda #Slack pensavo di provare un po’ #RocketChat e vedere se può fare al caso nostro, ma la cosa che più mi preme sostituire in realtà è la suite di Google. In particolare, le nostre esigenze sarebbero:

• archiviazione (stile Google drive)
• documenti di testo (stile Google Documents)
• fogli di calcolo (stile Google Spreadsheets) che dovrebbero avere le seguenti caratteristiche:
• feature collaborative “di base” come cartelle condivise con alcuni utenti, possibilità di modificare contemporaneamente uno stesso documento e di lasciare commenti
• possibilità di utilizzo agevole (cioè semplice anche per utenti per cui Google docs è il massimo della tecnologia a cui l’umanità è arrivata) sia da mobile (Android e iOS) che da web
• possibilità di fare self-hosting o possibilità di utilizzarle con un piano gratuito (se il progetto dovesse proseguire e ingrandirsi e il prezzo è ragionevole non sarebbe un problema pagare, ma ora come ora siamo solo in 3 e tutti abbastanza squattrinati 😅)

PS: so che sul sito di LeAlternative è già presente un articolo molto esaustivo sulle possibili alternative a Google Drive e infatti dopo averlo letto mi ero già fatto una mezza idea su quale servizio potrei tentare a proporre, ma ho deciso di fare questo post per sentire più pareri da parte di chi queste alternative le utilizza o le ha utilizzate nel pratico

My team wanted to start using Trello to better organize the work we have to do and, since I believe it's much easier to start using foss software from the beginning rather then switching to it after years of using something else, I wanted to suggest now a different option, possibly selfhosted.

I've seen online that there is Focalboard that seems to be what we are looking for but I've seen it recently switched from being backed by mattermost team to be community-driven and I didn't found enough documentation on how to install it with docker on an arm server... Does anyone use it? Is it a good option or there are better ones? And if you're using it, could you help me spinning it up?

Looks like a new model for the Fairphone has been announced! What do you think about it?

Personally I love the fairphone project but after having tried GrapheneOS on my Pixel 6a it would be hard to move to a different OS

UPDATE:

After some more testing, trying to disable one by one the entries on proc/acpi/wakeup and comparing them with the output of lspci, I think I found out that the problem is related with the PCIE components that idk why send a wake-up signal to the system every time it enters sleep mode. As a temporary fix, I created a service that runs a script to disable those four lines every time I start / reboot the system, waiting for a proper fix in a future kernel update. Here are the two files I created:

/etc/systemd/system/disable-PCIE-wakeup.service: ``` [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/disable-PCIE-wakeup.sh

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target ```

/usr/local/bin/disable-PCIE-wakeup.sh: bash #!/bin/sh for i in $(cat /proc/acpi/wakeup | grep RP | grep enabled | grep S4 | awk '{print $1}'); do echo $i > /proc/acpi/wakeup; done

(and after creating those files, I enabled the new service with sudo systemctl enable disable-PCIE-wakeup.service)

ORIGINAL POST:

Some time ago I posted on Fedora Discussion because my Fedora system (MSI Summit e16 flip running Fedora 38) started having problems with sleep mode after a kernel update (actually, starting from kernel 6.3.x and with all later versions).

Unfortunately I didn't receive that many replies there, so I tried to troubleshoot by myself and I found out that what's causing this problem is probably an internal device of the laptop that is supposed to be used to wake up the laptop from sleep (like the touchpad or the fingerprint reader? idk) and that instead is misfunctioning and waking it up immediately after it reached the sleep state. I'm saying so because I tried to temporarily disable all the lines in /proc/acpi/wakeup using this simple script below that I found somewhere online and, after doing that until the next time I reboot, the laptop stays asleep as expected.

So now my question is: how do I isolate which device is causing the problem? And how can I permanently fix this issue? I suspect that the problematic device could be the fingerprint reader since it was unsupported up until Fedora 38 and doesn't still work properly since it keeps forgetting the fingerprints I add... is there a way for me to disable it completely and try to see if it fixes the issue?

(I’m not sure about if this is the proper place to ask questions like this, or if I should report this issue somewhere else, since it seems more a kernel issue. Recommendations about better place to ask it are welcomed 🙃)

Da più di un anno ormai ho (quasi) smesso di usare Google Maps sostituendolo con Organic Maps per quanto riguardava mappe e navigazione a piedi / in auto e Moovit per la navigazione con i mezzi pubblici. Tra le varie opzioni avevo scelto Moovit perché usava le mappe di OpenStreetMap (che trovo un progetto bellissimo) ed era anche un contributor abbastanza importante del progetto.

Tuttavia oggi ho aperto l'app e ho notato che anziché la solita overlay in basso a sinistra "OpenStreetMaps contributor" c'è il logo di Google in basso a destra, dal che dedicò che abbiano cambiato fornitore di mappe, risulta anche a voi?

E se sì, qualcuno ha trovato un articolo o blog post a riguardo che spieghi il perché? :/

As the title says, today I noticed that instead of the "OpenStreetMap contributor" overlay I'm used to see on Moovit maps there is the Google logo, which makes me think that they moved from OpenStreetMap data to google's.

Is there any article about this? And especially about why? One of the main reasons I was using moovit over Google Transit was because since there is still no valid foss transit app at least they where contributing to foss maps...
