Same.

I dont do much customization, but the endevorOS community edition has decent defaults.

Just working cleanly with tiling feels so good. You dont have to use the mouse to move all the windows around. But if you hold the super key, you can just drag windows around to make a perfect layout. But often than not, i just want 2 windows side by side, with no wasted space. Done.

Poor quality is fine, I really just want to catch a game or two that I’ve missed. Probably be listening to it more than actually watching. This looks perfect. Thanks!

Hmmm. I’m not familiar with mad titan. I haven’t been on the kodi train in a long time. Might be worth a look. Thanks!

Oh nice! That might end up being the solution then. Thanks for the reply

Damn. Looked perfect until I saw the date of the most recent replay: February 2024 (the Super Bowl)

I wonder if there’s a setting or filter I can’t see on mobile. I’ll check on my pc when I get home.

Thanks for the reply!

Hmmmmmmm…

I’ve thought more on this yesterday, and I think my issue is-

I don’t want something that ‘just works’, I want to BUILD something that ‘just works’

The distinction is that I don’t want to buy premade solutions. I want to make them. Not because of the customizability, but because the fun is in the building. Think Lego- hundreds of people build the exact same product in the end, but why are they sold in pieces? Just assemble the damn things and sell them complete (with markup). You think more people wanna buy that?? I’d bet against it.

Hard agree. In fact, I think there’s a market for JUST the guides. It’s true that there’s a TON of guides out there already, from old blogs to YouTube, but the issue is: all of them start or end with: “your use case might differ, so perhaps this solution isn’t for you.” Or “make sure this setup is compatible with your specific hardware”

For example: I want to set up some sort of backup/cloud storage type system. Well there’s about 1400 ways to accomplish that. I can easily just grab one and go, but I’ll always wonder- should I have done this a different way? Would my life be easier/more secure if I chose a different set up?

So offering hardware that is compatible with whatever “stack” of services included would be a huge plus. Sorta like getting a raspberry pi and following a specific raspberry pi tutorial- you know the issues you get aren’t gonna be due to incompatibility.

I think it really boils down to the scale of one’s home lab- are you just tinkering to get some skills and make something cool? Or are you hoping to do something much much bigger? Different software solutions fit those extremes differently.

Sorry, got off rambling there. I guess I’ve been down the home lab hardware/software wormhole for too long these last few weeks.

You forgot v) collaborates internationally for work, requiring them to be awake early to maximize overlapping hours in their workday.

But even I know not to do noisy shit outside until at least 10. Those few quiet hours in the morning where it seems I’m the only person alive are to drink coffee and cherish.

Invest in a standing desk. Sitting all day, even in a good chair is no good for you. Mix it up.

Yeah, two separate drives. Do you set up bios legacy from the bios menu?

Damn, that would be perfect. I’ll give that a go. Thanks

Interesting… but that just replaces an existing step with another step. I’d like to reduce the overall steps to get to each system. And if I can’t do that, I’d at least like to switch the order to win>EOS>Deb

Perfect. I’m sold.

Thanks

Yeah… the depths of my laziness knows no bounds. But this whole downward spiral of Firefox might be the push I need to get my shit together.

Any reason not to use bitwarden?

I probably need to just take the plunge and start using an actual password manager. Just seems so daunting.

Thanks for the reply.

Can I import all my Firefox saved logins and whatnot on librewolf?

Also: What browser can I use on iOS?

This is an instance where I think the folks at nobu casa (paid branch of home assistant development) could dedicate some resources to hardware. Instead of the prebuilt SBC stuff like HA-blue, or yellow or whatever. Create an esp device that just has a reliable microphone, and crank them out. I’d buy one for every room in my house!

I’ve got an esp army in my greenhouse that runs wLED, and one of them has a mic for doing the sound reactive display stuff, but it’s running wLED, not ESPHome… I wonder how easy it would be to just slap a digital mic on some of the other esp things I’ve got floating around?

Yeah, to each their own!

Ah, that’s fair. I guess I just need to commit to one path and just start developing habits. Thanks!
