That was my guess. Just wanted someone that knows more than I do to confirm.

Kind of an odd question, and something I think is a long shot, but here goes.

I’ve long known and used GitHub pages for the odd static site, and generally like the service, Microsoft ownership aside, for the purpose of free hosting for temporary sites.

I was just trying to figure out how to host an instance of something for a popup event and wanted to be able to have a url that was mostly readable/recognizable. So my mind jumped to GitHub pages. I know it possible to connect GH pages to a custom domain, I used to host my personal website like this, but is the reverse possible? Can I expose my self hosted services on

user.github.io

in some way?

Thank you for your explanation and info. Will be setting this up later tonight.

Obsidian-Syncthing user here. I agree with what someone else said about no feedback from syncthing that it is or is not done updating files. Beyond that though, it’s a great tool that handles all my notes well.

I use Finamp with my Jellyfin library for simplicity’s sake. Other things probably have better UI and such, but it’s nice to just dump all my media in my Jellyfin folders and move on.

 

Basically the title. I would like apps that auto detect system theme to see it as dark mode. I’ve come across post after post of doing this with home manager, but I’d like to just do it in my base nix config. I tried a few different ways to declare what I thought was being done in the home manager tutorials in my config, but none of it worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Grew up in a cold part of the world, was a skier doing grinds and flips, but yeah, same idea!

Imagine if all the space between the primary radial arms of trains was filled in with street cars and pedestrian/micromobility centric spaces. Like the problem you are saying cars solve just doesn’t exist in the first place and people can still get around very easily. Even more rural folks can simply drive to the edge of this style of urban design if they need access to something. The reason bus rides are 45 minutes is because of the number of cars they have to put up with. The density of people that can be moved with shockingly good area coverage if cars are not a factor is incredible.

“Let’s invent metal boxes with wheels that follow lines on the ground automatically to get you places.”

“Oh, you mean like trains.”

“Ew, no. They’re nothing like trains, these are ‘self driving cars’. They’re fool proof!”

Some other books that handle time travel in fun ways and play with explicitly making changes to the past.

  • Asimov’s The End of Eternity (might have gone without saying)
  • Jack Finney’s Time and Again (read it as a kid, so might not actually be that good, but it’s illustrated which is fun!)

I use Unix Pass connected over Tailscale to a git server I host myself. The interface options for various devices are a bit clunky, but it basically “just works” outside of that.

Edit: I used to use KeePass and syncthing, which I think is probably the best (balance of simple and effective) combo for most users.

Honestly I want a Linux phone, but the scene needs to mature a bit. I’d also like a physical keyboard, so I’m even more limited in my options. LilyGo just released something I’d try, but it sold out almost instantly. Good call on the signal transfer, though I wish better platforms were catching on. Having to use a phone number to sign up kind of defeats the purpose in my opinion. Graphene and Postmark are on my short list of things to try if I end up on an android device.

To be totally honest I didn’t read your entire post, but just from your intro I think we are in similar situations. ISP router, low costs, using only the hardware you have around. I’ve solved a lot of stuff with Tailscale. None of my services are public facing and instead I connect to them over Tailscale (could be replaced with wireguard).

The wall I’m hitting you or maybe others could help with, is accessing my services from sub domains of a single Tailscale address rather than having to type port numbers for everything. I know this involves a reverse proxy and DNS (I use PiHole for that), but I’m stuck trying to configure the two in a way that actually works. Once I finally ditch iOS for good I’ll probably just sync a hosts file between all my devices using Syncthing to help streamline the DNS situation.

I’m very similar. Getting into self hosting and finding Lemmy happened somewhat in tandem. Now I’m happily tinkering along and looking at hosting my own instance! This comm has been a huge resource and seems very active!!
