How old is the oldest building in the town you live in?

To those from the Western hemisphere, it's always fascinating to hear that some homes and businesses from the times of the Greek philosophers still have inhabitants, and then you remember that the Western hemisphere is itself not without its own examples, for example some Mexican villages still have temples from the times of the...

Perth?

True story - I moved from Scotland to Perth when I was 6. A few months later I visited Tranby House, one of the oldest buildings in Perth at around 1830. I remember thinking to myself that our house in Scotland before we moved was older than that (circa 1800)

I prefer Lemmy over Mastodon for the same reason I preferred Reddit (pre-APIpocalypse) over Twitter (pre-Musk) - the ability to subscribe to specific communities with similar interests. Try as I might in Mastodon with selective subscriptions to certain posters I still find myself scrolling through stuff I have no interest in hoping for a nugget of interest.

When VMWare Horizon Client (which I need for work) supports it

I was playing with Silverblue but had to switch out because it didn’t have DisplayLink drivers or a flatpak for VMWare Horizon which meant I couldn’t connect to work

Related question - steam flatpak or deb?

I use calibre to manage my collection. Calibre creates a folder per author and a sub-folder per book. I also have separate Calibre libraries for fiction, non-fiction and comics.

I’m running Onyx (sorry… Fedora Budgie Atomic) on my Thinkpad and love it. Last night I decided to give Sway a shot and, when I was done with that, rolled back to Budgie without any of the cruft of installing additional DE’s alongside each other.

Yeah I had a similar experience when logging on to Sway - I had no clue what to do. Did you ever figure out how to bring up a menu or launcher? All I could do after googling was launch a terminal

@giddy@aussie.zone avatar

Thanks for that. Now that I know the launcher shortcut I will give it another go

Wow I am not in your league

I am currently migrating from a dedicated docker host to a proxmox host with multiple LXC containers.

old host - 23 docker containers, 128GB system drive, 4TB data drive

backup server - 1 docker container, 1TB disk

proxmox - 3 LXC containers, one of which has 3 docker containers. 500GB system drive, 4TB media drive (not LVM)

The plan is to migrate the loads on the old host to the proxmox host. I also have another 4TB drive coming with the intent of setting up a RAID with 2 of the 4TB drives.

Max is not just one guy. He is an amalgamation of road warriors remembered in legends by the post-apocalyptic societies they helped
