  • Where is Linux not working well in your daily usage? Share your pain points as of 2026, so we can respectfully discuss

  • I can't cross play on Ghost of Tsushima.

    I can't get my MT7927 wifi chip to work

    I still have issues with Snap... But I switched to an Arch distro to fix that problem

  • Going to a Protest? Don't Bring Your Phone Without Doing This First

  • I would like to bring the attention to LoRa.

    Meshtastic is a good example of leveraging LoRa.

  • Ignoring the internet bill itself, how many paid online services do you have?

    Jump

  • One VPS (need to grow this one) $10/month

    2 tiny websites $2/month

    Bitwarden Family $3.33/month

    A few domains $10/month

    And M$ Family 365 because it's the easiest way for my elderly parents to backup their photos. $8.33/month

    Oh and proton VPN I think it's $5/month

    That's about it.

    $38.66 a month.

  • What is your "great I am an old person now" complaint?

    Jump

  • Soda and juice is too sweet for me.

    A lot of music in public spaces is too loud.

    No longer understanding slang is normal.

    There's not enough hours (days) to decompress after a work day.

  • I've had the same issue. It's a little irritating

  • What's your uptime?

    Jump

  • I reboot quarterly for hypervisors and monthly for LAN. Anything outward facing reboots weekly.

    My layer 3 switch recently hit 400 days though. That's my highest uptime in my network.

  • I just use adguard home. Worker a little better in my docker setup.

  • Don't throw away your old PC—it makes a better NAS than anything you can buy

    Jump

  • I used to have a 5700G system that I had to switch out to a 14600k system due to quciksync pass through.

    I got my 14600K down to 55w from 75w with everything else being equal. Insane how efficient some setups can be.

    My 16tb Pi sips at 13w max or 8w idle. But no encoding or enough storage for normal work. So it's warm storage

  • Best way to browse and share files between hoarders?

    Jump

  • We use Tailscale to share between accounts.

    But for large transfers I use an encrypted HDD.

  • Finding a private self hosted Google Photos alternative that doesn’t profit from my photos

    Jump

  • I selfhost immich in a netcup VPS. They have a 2tb VM for about 22 euros a month via a black Friday sale

    I'm on a 1tb arm plan for about 10 euros a month.

  • People who have moved away from your home town/area, what do you miss most?

    Jump

  • All the mom and pop restaurants I grew up with that have since closed.

    Also knowing all the short cuts it took through the neighbor's yards to get home.

  • You're given $20,000 USD (or the equivalent in your local currency) to spend, but anything still left by the end of the day you lose for good. What are you spending it on?

    Jump

  • Something like SGOV until I figure out what to do with it.

    3-4% APY sitting around is nice.

  • What open source project is the most exciting for you right now?

  • You use an IBAN to send money. Yeah technically it's your bank, but it's a digital transfer without a middleman.

    You can even put notes on it to pay invoices.

  • [Proxmox] Jellyfin w/ NAS mount + iGPU passthrough

    Jump

  • I am running Jellyfin in an Open Media Vault VM on top of Proxmox.

    Jellyfin is in docker in OMV.

    All disks are mounted in OMV and then mounted in Docker.

    I have a 14600k that has an iGPU passthrough and it works fine. (Same generation iGPU I think)

     
            mkdir /lib/firmware/i915/
    cd /lib/firmware/i915/
    wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/adls_dmc_ver2_01.bin
    wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_guc_70.bin
    wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_guc_70.1.1.bin
    wget https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/firmware/linux-firmware.git/plain/i915/tgl_huc.bin
    update-initramfs -u

    Then try this docker container to see if encoding works

     
            docker run --rm ghcr.io/linuxserver/ffmpeg ffmpeg -hwaccels

    Run the container

     
            docker run --rm \
      --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri \
      --entrypoint ffmpeg \
      ghcr.io/linuxserver/ffmpeg \
      -init_hw_device qsv=hw:/dev/dri/renderD128 \
      -hwaccel qsv -hwaccel_device hw -hwaccel_output_format qsv \
      -f lavfi -i testsrc=duration=3:size=1280x720:rate=30 \
      -vf 'format=nv12,hwupload=extra_hw_frames=64' \
      -c:v h264_qsv -f null -

    I'm on mobile so formatting maybe shit. But I think you can get the right idea with this.

  • What's your silly little website.

  • The website only uses http so you'll need to disable https mode if you want

  • I use a Sierra Wireless EM9293 with a USB3 to M.2 Key B 4G 5G Modem Adapter Enclosure with SIM Card Slot - V7 from Wireless Haven.

    Impressive kit and costs me about 300 in parts.

    Works natively with my Mikrotik USB port.
