Totally fair.

Another great option is Yourls. I’ve been using it for years and it’s been fabulous

Check out OliveTin. I use it in a similar fashion to track when I take my daily meds and for other personal health tracking.

It’s a simple webapp that fires off shell scripts on your server. I store my data as CSV, but you can tailor the scripts to store and retrieve/present your data however you’d like.

Edit 2: adding that I host this on a Raspberry pi zero w. It’s ultra cheap. It’s only accessible on my lan by choice. I use a wireguard tunnel on my stupid cheap (~$1.50/month) vps to access it remotely.

Edit 1: fix link formatting

Glad I’ve got an Brother laser that has no network connectivity.

You could definitely do that. I use this to manage torrents from the command line and in scripts

Isn’t this all a simulation anyway???

Seriously though, I do know several people IRL that are Lemmy users.

PurelyMail is what I use. It’s been great so far. I’ve been using it for over a year for this exact use case.

I’ve a nightly cronjob that runs backup using rsync for my local, and an external HDD that I stash in my work locker that I bring home once a week or so to connect to the server, run a backup script (more rsync), then take it back to work. It’s not super sophisticated, but it works, and I have tested and restored from both the local and offsite backups.

Agree. Make it as easy to read as possible. I learned this particularly after I had written a script that had a lot of nesting. It worked initially, but not for long and when I went back to debug I was like, “What the fuck was I thinking here?”

I ended up completely rewriting it to minimize the nesting and make it much more efficient and readable

That’s fantastic. I’m not using it that deeply yet. I do have other scripts for managing my media files and adding them to my server as I rip music and DVDs. I also am loving learning it and using it.

Oh goodness, this looks incredibly useful. Thank you!

Thank you! I always worry with a one liner that I’ll fuck something up in a bad way. In a script it helps me think about the process since it’s more visually structured, and for me it’s easier to test.

Of course! Feel free!! And thank you!

Thanks! I wrote the script in vim too! :D

I’m no vim expert but I do like it.

Hyprland with Waybar. Kitty for shell, and keybindings for launching. I may add a launcher down the road but I kinda love custom keybindings for launching my apps.

I’m running Asahi on a Mac mini. There’s no battery. It’s a desktop

I’ve got an m1 Mac mini running Asahi and its great. Just make note, not all of the hardware features are 100% supported. I’m fine with what’s missing on my m1, but before you pull the trigger on an m2 Mac check the Asahi page and know exactly what machine you plan to install on. Do not buy it if you want or have to have hardware features that Asahi doesn’t support on the machine you’re planning to buy.

I didn’t expand it because I’m planning to dual boot NixOS. I’ve been wanting to wade in to NixOS and see what it’s all about.

Secnd clone was also a success! I cloned from the USB SSD to the NVMe, installed it, updated the UUIDs in fstab, and booted straight up!

The first clone (to the interim usb ssd) was a success! I’ll report back after installing the new nvme and cloning from the ssd to the nvme.
