i don’t have any complex ‘webapp’ hosted on www. just static files and few simple cgi scripts. i keep my httpd and sshd up to date. that seems to be good enough

there’s nothing important on the server anyway, so i don’t have much to lose even if i get pwned

runs well on my potato pc, infinite customization, transparent and easy to inspect, made by nerds

pf but that needs BSD kernel features…

this just looks like a fun project. not everything has to be actually meaningful for production usage

never thought of something like this, sounds like a useful concept. thanks

xterm, xv, mc, tmux, gimp, seamonkey

only enable necessary services, disable turboboost, switch cpu governors (like powersave)

my friend had a pretty expensive/high-end hp laptop, got Hinge Problems after a few years of usage.

etools.ch is the least worst one i found

i always use curl icanhazip.com for checking my external IP… iirc some “IoT” devices also use it for some reason

true, but this is a real “universal” remote so…

the xiaomi ir remote app (proprietary ofc) has presets for basically anything i ever needed a remote for. i have it on my primary phone so it has saved me on a few occasions.

idk how it works on grapheneos. but on normal android i could use work profile for this. and singbox inside the work profile to open a local socks5 proxy, then connecting to it from outside the work profile.

random LG or Xiaomi android phone. they have ir blaster built in.

at least on my LG G2 it works even after installing a custom rom (lineageos)

a haswell xeon e5-1650 machine, i remember running llama 7b in llama.cpp in like 2023 and it was quite sluggish. guess i should try whisper at some point…

i don’t use it at all, i do want some selfhosted speech to text model (whisper?) but my computer is ancient so it would be awfully slow. i have some multi hour audio recordings from presentations, would be nice to have them in text and searchable…

i haven’t used kde for quite a while; but maybe konqueror could work better?

webrecorder browsertrix should work for this. they even have a hosted/paid service which could be better than selfhosting depending on the circumstance.

saving as html with singlefile and sharing manually could be easier/simpler, the concept is easy to understand for non computer people imo.

other than that i recently found out hoardy-web, doesn’t really fit your usecase as this is basically saving everything you see on your browser for personal archiving though. very well made but somehow it isn’t as widely known as other stuff in this area…

yep it’s mostly pwned residential devices. some devices even contain residential proxy backdoor from factory.

i heard they sort of fixed the speaker/gpu and the only ‘missing’ feature is thunderbolt.

the idea sounds interesting and its also similar to what ive considered making some time ago. but why tf did you mess it up with this ai slop wall of text? heck, i’d even understand if you used LLMs in the code due to lack of skills, i’m also not a good programmer and i’m sympathetic. but there’s really no reason for having this entire post written by an LLM.

terrible advice, no reason to get it unless you only want something brand new

it’s not a great laptop overall. 8gb ram, only runs tahoe and higher, no asahi linux, etc
