Thank you for your reply.

I saw a post lately regarding this and my Debian kernel update was held back because I thought apt upgrade upgrades everything. After I ran apt dist-upgrade it was upgraded.

The post: https://lemmy.world/post/46322168

I think apt upgrade wouldn’t upgrade the kernel. The correct one is apt dist-upgrade.

Edit: apt update would patch the kernel.

Well, 70% is writing the rant and 30% is posting the rant.

I just ran MS Paint (XP version) using wine. You just need to install mfc42 library and it runs great.

Can’t wait to use it. Id support them as much as I can.

How did I not know about it sooner.

Thank you!!

I wish we have a free to use, open source, and privacy respecting search engine that do the crawling and indexing and don’t rely on other search engines.

Maybe we can utilize all selfhosted instances to do the crawling and consolidate it.

Yeah and maybe AI summarization and digest feature

You just need to do the following:

1. systemctl edit docker.service

2. Add this part above the line ### Lines below this comment will be discarded:

[Service] Environment=DOCKER_MIN_API_VERSION=1.24

3. Save the file and exit

4. systemctl restart docker

I do it every 3 to 5 days. I usually do it when I have time to fix things if it goes south.

He did add to the prompt “make it secure and maintain it” so He’s good.

I wouldn’t trust an ai code even though it is tested.

It’s like living in a house built by 12 year old and the reasoning behind it that it didn’t collapse. Yet.

Ensure the CPU has hardware transcoding for the encoding you need. I wouldn’t go with older than intel 9th gen.

Please checkout this wiki guide here

I’m not sure what do you mean by firmware blob but Ive done the following:

1. Added non-free to the sources file.
2. Installed Surface-linux lib.

There is a guide in surface-linux library which requires compiling something with CMAKE. I’m not comfortable at the moment to do it since I don’t have the time to fix it if something went wrong.

I couldn’t find a good touch gui for debian so ill give ubuntu a shot.

Looks like TempleOS tier OS

I knew nothing about linux 2 years ago and started with installing Debian on my surface go 2. This explains why I couldn’t get the web cam to work to this day.

I believe NUCs are more expensive than mini pcs and less bang for buck.

Check out intel i5 9th gen. You can get one with hdd for ~$250. Some of them support m2.

No problem. I think you missed a comma before all. It should look like this:

–sponsorblock-remove,all

Edit: I don’t know why lemmy client I use remove the double comma.

Sure, you can find the documentation under sponsorblock options here: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp

For categories, maybe sponsorblock github is the best place to find them.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to scrape information or import it to Plex. Also, check out jellyfin as an alternative of Plex.

Glad you got it working.

I’ve noticed it need a lot of time to start even with good hardware and the confusing part it’ll throw errors rather than doing nothing.

Now to configure sponsorblock, go to settings > advance > select downloader: choose yt-dlp

Then go to settings > downloader > global custom args type this: --sponsorblock-remove,all

Now, for all new videos, it will download the video and remove all sponsorblock marked segments.
