  • Fossify Calendar is a standard android calendar that pulls from the built-in android calendar storage. You can use any standard calendar like Fossify or Etar to mention two open source apps, much in the same way that you sync your nextcloud contacts to the built-in android contact storage. Any standard contacts app can interact with your nextcloud-stored’n’synced contacts.

    Running Nextcloud for tasks, calendar and contacts on a self-hosted server is one of the more private solutions.



  • Finally my moment to shine with incredibly niche knowledge!

    Joplin, while it has the ability to encrypt the sync target (even if it’s a local folder synced with syncthing) does decrypt the content in the app data folder. The notes are in an unencrypted database while all attachments just hang out in the attachment folder.

    This leaves the content vulnerable if the computer is compromised. But then again, apps that keep stuff encrypted at rest still have to decrypt it to memory - leaving the content vulnerable if the computer is compromised. 🤷‍♂️

    All in all, Joplin is definitively one of the great, more secure note taking apps.





  • I can daily drive linux just fine on 3060ti, the Ollama CUDA AI acceleration works without a single issue straight out of the box.

    I do want to be able to game on my main rig though, but that’s what I have a laptop with an Intel low-end integrated GFX card for.





  • Sure, but if CLI is for advanced users and the community points towards CLI for changing the GUI language, is changing language an advanced task? Is the community making it more difficult/intimidating than necessary?

    In my case I had to pull the language data AND use a TUI configuration to change language. No biggie for someone who’s comfortable with CLI, an unsurmountable hinder for those not comfortable with the terminal.

    inb4 “Why didn’t you use the built in GUI?”. Desired language wasn’t an option and no obvious way to DL it either.


  • .deb

    $ /opt/camelchat/camelchat

    opt/camelchat/camelchat: symbol lookup error: /opt/camelchat/camelchat: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_pointer

    Appimage

    Set as executable.

    $ ./Camel-Chat-0.2.0-x86_64.AppImage

    tmp/.mount_Camel-7OCAAq/camelchat: symbol lookup error: /tmp/.mount_Camel-7OCAAq/camelchat: undefined symbol: g_once_init_enter_pointer


    From a similar issue for a different app it seems to be a glib issue, requiring glib 2.8+ when Debian12 is shipped with 2.74.6-2+deb12u5.


    Android

    Works perfectly!
