I hopped around a little but settled into Debian a long, long time ago. My son loves Arch, I like my stuff to be a bit more stable and don’t have the time to update between commands all the time (its a joke but has a little truth to it).

In a normal byte format it wouldn’t help, the byte standard breaks off bits into 8 bit chunks and calls them bytes (I’m not trying to explain basics, just putting it there for background), little-endian excels at using the least number of bits to express larger numbers in a stream. If you wanted to send any number from 0-255 you only need 1 byte, for 256-512 you need two bytes (or 16 bits), in little-endian it can be represented in just 9 bits, or up to 1024 in 10 bits, etc.

Doesn’t matter for much to many people, but when the number gets big enough you can save a lot of bandwidth.

I think you missed the point, that I was making, albeit poorly (little endian still requires leading zeros when not transmitting in a byte format, otherwise you don’t know if the first on signal is for 1, 256, 1024, etc.) it’s all good though

I’m not seeing any trailing zeros if that is in little endian, you start little end first and it isn’t limited to a silly 8-bits, it can be used to represent numbers far larger than 255 if continued (though then it wouldn’t be representative of a byte and half the joke would be lost).

Little-endian for the win!

I usually just gather a nibble by picking up a couple crumbs… I’ll see myself out.

I’m sure a successor will come around when room forms for them, I don’t know of a reason any of the core *arr stack should need one. If you know of one don’t hesitate to share, I’m just not really aware of any, they are awesome to me.

When I realized they paywalled OIDC I had to look elsewhere.

Thank you for not only the laughter this morning but also for perfectly explaining why I always go for nano.

I’ve used both but really like jotty…

What distro are you guys using to get errors like that? I’ve been a Debian guy as long as I can remember and was so happy when I gave up using Windows for games. Windows doesn’t seem to scale worth a shit, I have two twenty-seven inch monitors and one twenty-four inch monitor flipped portrait (it feels wrong but is so great for documentation); when I move a window halfway between two different size monitors the window is all fucked up, on Debian it is the same physical size across the displays and doesn’t look like someone is trying to zoom in on half of it.

All that being said, my son’s computer is close (he runs Arch… btw), but not perfect… I don’t know if that’s an Arch thing or he just doesn’t care about it as much as I do.

I was too lazy and immich-go may not have existed when I migrated but I just selected and downloaded my pictures from Google Photos then just uploaded them to Immich and they seemed to keep all their metadata.

I absolutely loved the release of LMDE, it’s just what I like though, the simple intuitive interface of Mint, without dealing with Canonical’s bullshit (really sour about snaps, ignore me lol).

Edit: picked back up my phone and reread what was on the screen when I realized you probably meant desktop environment and not Debian Edition when you typed DE.

I could, but then I would have issues getting to it from work; from the bit I’ve read about mTLS, it’s not really indended for my use case, I think I’ll just stick with TLS.

I keep mine accessible from the internet, its just more useful to me like that. I do have registration disabled though and SSO is handled by Authentik so it could be worse (my personal goal has just been to not be the easiest target, perfect security is a myth in my mind).

The setup wasn’t too bad but I did bang my head against the wall a little. The docs on your site have an incomplete callback uri (it’s missing the /auth/ part of the URL) and I didn’t notice at first (its right in your example env on github though). My only real complaint is I can’t seem to find a way to disable external signups but still allow OIDC auto provisioning.

All in all though, this is great and I can’t wait to use it more.

I know, I’m a huge fan of Mint, but only the Debian edition as Canonical keeps going in a direction I will not follow happily. It isn’t just that snap sucks in my opinion, its that they decided to replace apt-installed packages with snaps and it feels like a slippery slope that could lead to issues.

It looks really good, I’m definitely going to be spinning this up once I get a chance. Having OIDC right out the gate is a huge plus in my book!

I couldn’t agree more, I join selfhosting communities all over and not just because I need more stuff to host, because of the community. I love getting to read through the questions and answers, even when they are questions that could be answered by just reading the man page… Maybe it just reminds me of the good old days as I’m getting older and remember asking a lot of similar questions.

Thanks! I’ll definitely check it out!
