NixOS is a declarative OS. Instead of installing a software, you specify it in a config (.nix file) and rebuild. Same goes mounts, services etc.

I use it because it is great to be able to revert if I do something stupid.

From their README. Have you looked at their forum?

This thread has a link to someone’s Dockerfile for their development.

Here is two enteries from my Caddyfile:

ip.domain.tld:80 {
        respond "{client_ip}" 200
}


git.domain.tld {
        reverse_proxy forgejo:3000
}

This is all I need and Caddy will handle the rest. I have created a network with podman/docker that I add to any container that I need to reverse proxy to.

No Man’s Sky. So much of what was promised was missing, the world just felt empty. It’s a much better game now.

You mean this one? https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108255/

Thanks writing it all out instead of making us watch the video.

From the readme:

RomM (ROM Manager) allows you to scan, enrich, browse and play your game collection with a clean and responsive interface. With support for multiple platforms, various naming schemes, and custom tags, RomM is a must-have for anyone who plays on emulators.

The title made me think 244 children (and not offenders) were arrested.

“hands-on” graduation project

Does hand-on mean supervised?

This link has more information that looks relevant: https://askubuntu.com/questions/89219/is-there-a-difference-between-swap-and-cache-memory

Disk Cache memory: This are chunks of the physical memory, the RAM, used to store files. That way when a program needs to read the file, it’s fetched from memory instead of the hard disk. This is done because memory is way faster.

Swap: This is a place on the hard disk (usually a dedicated partition) that is used to store programs or data that can’t fit in memory, like when a program grows more than the available memory. SWAP is way slower than RAM, so when you hit swap the computer gets slower, but at least the program can work. In linux swap is also used to hibernate, or to move low used program out of memory to allow more space to the disk cache.

Cached %lu

In-memory cache for files read from the disk (the page cache). Doesn’t include SwapCached.

Cached should be memory stored on HDD and not RAM.

Thanks! I hadn’t heard about agetty before. Will save this for later.

There is even a docker-compose.yml script.

What’s wrong with cp?

Jokes aside, I asked my previous boss once why everyone kept paying for Microsoft products instead of using FOSS. The answer was paid support and you can sell it.

How do you set up the tty method?

That sound like something you should put on youtube or another streaming service.

Paste their response in an LLM and reply with that.

My small repurposed NAS could not handle hosting everything posted here, but it would be really nice if I had the time to both set it up AND use them. I’m suprised it can even handle almost 10 apps (but I am the only user).

I also had a dream of setting up Guacamole and run Heroes of Might and Magic III turn based. But I never got it working (didn’t use docker back then) so I gave up on it.

It’s nice because I don’t have to install it. Now I can use it when I work, on my computer at home or when my dad calls me.

But there is also merit to using a desktop application.
