New Bazzite user here. Long story short I was looking to leave Windows and tried a few distros (Nobara,Kali, Endeavour…)

At the end of the day Bazzite is the one that works best out of the box.

My only issue was with Nvidia&Wayland: I got tons of crashes even on native games. Switched to X11 and works like a charm.

The negative point? It’s not Arch :D

Thanks to everyone that has replied, all fair points. When you use (read, view, listen to…) copyrighted material you’re subject to the licensing rules, no matter if it’s free (as in beer) or not.

This means that quoting more than what’s considered fair use is a violation of the license, for instance. In practice a human would not be able to quote exactly a 1000 words document just on the first read but “AI” can, thus infringing one of the licensing clauses.

Some licensing on copyrighted material is also explicitly forbidding to use the full content by automated systems (once they were web crawlers for search engines)

Basically all these possibilities or actual licensing infringements would require a negotiation between the involved parties.

This process is akin to how humans learn by reading widely and absorbing styles and techniques, rather than memorizing and reproducing exact passages.

Many people quote this part saying that this is not the case and this is the main reason why the argument is not valid.

Let’s take a step back and not put in discussion how current “AI” learns vs how human learn.

The key point for me here is that humans DO PAY (or at least are expected to…) to use and learn from copyrighted material. So if we’re equating “AI” method of learning with humans’, both should be subject to the the same rules and regulations. Meaning that “AI” should pay for using copyrighted material.

It’s explained in the FAQ: https://www.beeper.com/faq#how-can-i-self-host-beeper I’ve not used the app so I don’t know how practical/easy it is but they’re at least offering the option, which is laudable.

For what I understood the decryption/encryption process happens on the bridge. The bridge is the selfhosted component so the transformation would happen in your server and they would have no visibility over the unencrypted message.

HaikuOS, simply FANTASTIC! Out of curiosity are you using it as a daily driver? I’ve tried early beta (2010 or so) and it was super fast but not enough to use it every day…

Did you know that you can use Joplin on a standard webdav server? Basically it just takes up the space of the data itself. I have it on a Caddy server and works like q charm synching between Windows and Android client

I was wondering why they wanted to rewrite it then I realised they are using electron…ouch!

I found Xenoblade absolutely impressive under all aspects. Zelda is fantastic, FF EX, Dragonquest… all with their distinctive art style and mechanics

But what really stuns me are the emulation capabilities. You can play all Nintendo portable games at ease + a ton of home console of the '90s and before and all in your pocket

New 3DS XL. Great screen(s), great battery, great emulation capability and great native games.

Yes, I’ve tried already that option (code server) and unfortunately I cannot use the “Remote” / “Dev Containers” extension with it. If you know how to do that, please let me know.

Thanks a lot, great suggestion! I’ll play around with it and let you know :)

Thanks but that would not fit my case as I’d have to install locally all the toolchain. As much as possible I’d like to have everything on a remote server.

Thanks for the reply, actually I wasn’t aware of that functionality in Github, that’s fantastic! If only I could have something similar selfhosted… :)

Thanks, that was an option I had on table, just wanted to check if there was a “simpler” solution

Fantastic suggestion and thanks for the post, very clear! I played with NixOS some time ago but I totally missed this capability. Fits quite well my use case, thanks! And I found this extension that could make things easier: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=arrterian.nix-env-selector

I had a look at it but it doesn’t seem to be able to create isolated dev environments on its own. Is it the case?

That’s a possibility for sure. My suggestion would be first to test the capability of the device before buying anything. Once you’re satisfied with it, you can take the next steps and buy additional hardware. In my experience a USB-C -> ETH port was a great purchase as I was experiencing shaky WiFi connection possibly due to battery saving settings.

Based on my personal experience at least one year on a 5 years old mobile. It can last longer but I decommissioned it because I got a NUC.

I had setup a charge limiter (between 20% and 80%) with Magisk, initially it was through an automation in homeassistant but the battery usage was very high.

In terms of charge cycles it was one or two per day max

Hello, that’s perfectly possible, actually I was selfhosting on android until recently. You can find more info in this post: https://lemmy.world/post/5342541

Unless you need some heavyweight lifting and you’re ok with installing directly the applications (no docker, sorry), that’s a good portable homeserver.

My only suggestion: buy an ethernet adapter as the WiFi connectivity will drop sometimes.

Keep us posted!
