so where’s… the link? the website just mirrors the post here. where does the project live? if you are working on it already then where’s that first sketch that was built openly?

I’m currently on CachyOS but I am feeling the pull of Gentoo more and more. Some day…

Visited it with LibreWolf (javascript turned on). The only thing that it got right was that I am on Linux, that I have an x86 processor and that I have LaTeX fonts installed.

I refreshed the page, the data shown was the same, but the fingerprint was different.

Not all, only those where you behave like a rude comment gremlin. But looking over your comment history I see that you consider it normal to call other people morons off hand, so you likely fall into the terminally online category with whom it’s impossible to have a conversation. So uhhh get ratioed, seek grass etc etc, I am not feeding you further.

1. I see, sorry for mistaking you for a reasonable person.

1. No need to be combative.
2. It is better to use open models.

I’m not exactly on board with needing an account with a search engine. That makes it super easy to track you.

they have a built in AI despite calling themselves “human-focussed”

Because it’s a tool that can serve humans. Not strictly search-related, but their AI-based translation tool is genuinely great and very useful to me.

You don’t have to use built-in AI, it only triggers when you explicitly ask for it and you can completely disable it in the settings.

They also have anti-slop filters, BTW: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/slopstop.html

Finally, not sure what models the search summarizer and the translation tool use, but the assistant lets you use open weights model like Kimi, GLM, DeepSeek et al.

I pay for Kagi. The results are good oob and you can downrank/ban websites.

did he send buttplug pics tho

Self-host Navidrome. Choose any of the clients that you like. Pirate stuff from big bands, buy stuff from smaller bands.

Cons: You’d have to deal with storage and hosting and access from outside your house e.g. with Tailscale. You’d also have to tag incorrectly tagged songs (surprisingly common issue, sometimes pirates tag stuff better than the bands themselves)

The script in the top post of this thread does a better job, since it actually checks when you have upgraded the affected packages: https://discuss.cachyos.org/t/aur-compromised-1500-packages-affected-20260611/31040

There’s also an even more thorough https://github.com/lenucksi/aur-malware-check

Been using fastmail for ~8 years now. No complaints

oh ffs. this is rage/engagement farming to get internet clout from the reactionary anti-ai hivemind. I’m not a fan of it either, but can yall handle a bit of nuance?

the project is almost 30 years old. it might be older than the topic starter. it’s the original maintainer at the helm. he probably has more experience maintaining this tool you all depend on (for free) than most of the complainers have in total. stop posting some fucking mastodon screenshot and pretending this is the first regression and/or issue rsync had in 30 years https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/rsync.

contribute instead of whining. no, forking the old version, changing the readme and making a post on socials to abandon it later doesn’t count.

If you don’t trust the guy who “literally invented rsync in 1996” to do right by his project which he has been doing quite all right with for the past 28 years, then I don’t know how to help you. I’d like to put forward an insane idea that he might know what he’s doing and is not vibecoding with a blindfold on and a beer in his hand.

wishing it was illegal is slightly different from it actually being illegal

I just realized this almost reads like a Terramaster ad, that’s not my goal; you can search for similar options from other fabricants.

I don’t mind that, I’m actively looking for recommendations. I also got pointed to https://www.minisforum.com/products/n5-air, but that one is 500 with no RAM at all, which is quite hefty.

So far I’m leaning towards trying to assemble something generic from used components, though I’m not quite sure what to pick best, motherboard being the hardest one.

As for TrueNAS - I might check it out if I do get off the shelf NAS, but I don’t imagine I’ll be using the Web UI much, to be honest. And I know about Jellyfin, I’m sticking to Plex just because I already have a lifetime Plex Pass and I like the app on my TV. If they keep shoving “community” features down my throat though - I’ll do the switch.

same. I’ll use vi if there’s nothing else available, but I default to nano if I can

ECC is not a hard requirement for me, but if I can get it - I’ll try to, as to me it makes sense for something that runs 24/7 and handles my personal data.

I have a very strong aversion to separating storage from my server. I just don’t see why I need to route power and network to 2 small boxes (none of which would do what I need it to do on its own + considering very crappy room layouts in rented apartments) and then fiddle with network access, when 1 slightly bigger box would do what I need it to do. Some 7-8 years ago I’ve bought dirt cheap second-hand Huananzhi x79 with Xeon E5 and DDR3-ECC with some low profile NVIDIA GPU and it all still works now - and something like that would mostly be OK for me even now (except I left it in another country).

That said, it’s possible a reasonably powerful NAS will be enough for me on its own?

storage box and a services box

That’s exactly what I want to avoid though. I see no reason to power and network 2 different small boxes when just one slightly bigger one will do. And as mentioned - 500 is without HDDs, I plan to use the ones I have for now and extend it later.

I wish I could say I was surprised
