Recommended 11-12" #linux laptops? Even considering a 2 in 1 to take over for my old tablet.

Have to say, filtering my timeline by links (information acquisition is my primary use case), shows made my reading much more enjoyable.

I'm missing something. Anyone using git-crypt with git worktrees? I keep getting smudging errors when I try to unlock it. Any tips? #git #gitcrypt

Pretty deep in the iOS ecosystem for mobile/watch. (No Mac). My contract is up and I can buy out my iPhone 15 pro max for $470. Or a can look for a budget alternative that's non iOS. But I don't really want to downgrade. Suggestion? #android #ios Likely just stick with it as I'm tired of financing

Zed editor has gotten really good. Supports helix modal editing (my term editor), the remote ssh editing just works on NixOs (vscode was a pain). I have matched my vscode (plugins, etc), ble to set the vscode shortcuts from a dropdown is icing on the cake. My era of vscode might be ending.

I just broke my clavicle over the weekend. I need a solid recommendation for a voice to text tool on #Linux. I basically need to be able to dictate into any text field in any application. Currently running #nixos but can easily run a flatpak or app image. Mixed results with Handy so far. I'll be tes

#Cloud #storage drives me nuts. Photos on one … have to sub to the 2 TB plan because you’re just over the lower sub. Then you have that situation across multiple providers and now you’re paying for 2 TB on multiple providers for independent services. But only use something like 600gb. 😖

Welp. I’m tired of fighting zoom and screen sharing in general on NixOs. Back to a “boring” Ubuntu variant with ansible. For me nix was about packages and declarative cfg. I still have it. But my stuff is working. 🤷‍♂️ I don’t have time to babysit a nix config. I’m sure I’ll be back at some point.

Anyone have #zoom screen sharing “actually” working on a #wayland window manager (not KDE/Gnome/Cosmic)? Bonus if on #hyprland , and super bonus on #nixos. Uber extra points, if you know what you did to get it working. Can share the first time. Must exit & rejoin meeting if I want to start again.

I would love some recommendations for blogs. The last few years I been going all in on rss. Looking for more for personal tech blogs. Companies/product blogs are kind of a no-brainer. The harder to discover ones. #kubernetes #linux #devops #sre #api Socials aren’t doing it for me these days.

Considering upgrading my #camera game for a new job. Have $800 to spend (not necessarily looking to spend it all). Will be using with #Linux (#NixOS). Or can still be a #webcam, but wanting to go higher end. Would like the depth of field look. Also have direct light behind me (windows). Suggestions?

AWS Finally Fixes Its Free Tier Problem
For eight years, I've watched the same story play out: excited newcomers sign up for AWS thinking they have a free account, only to get blindsided by unexpected charges.

I have to say I’ve always liked the Firefox browser, but it just never jived with me. But now I have to say the Zen browser (based on Firefox) seems to be scratching my edge. This might be the first one that can actually pull me away from a chrome based browser.

When you are building out manifests, etc, for an app that you intend to deploy using #gitops, do you: - build, manually deploy (test), convert, and takeover (gitops)? - build, manually deploy (test), delete, convert, deploy (gitops)? - build in gitops, and iterate until working? - something else?
