Yes I saw that one, I also like the presence of aux lights so when it’s closed I get some lights that people can see. I was just wondering that if the optics are that small, maybe the throw wouldn’t be enough. I guess it’s fine. It would be quite a powerful flashlight.

Did you go with or without dome for the 519A?

Exactly!

The SC33 would be great, but tail switch. Not as useful for me because of the way I hold the flashlight while riding. It uses the XHP70.3 HI emitter, so I might get that type of performance in a D1K with this emitter. For the SC29, this is a great option, it checks a lot of boxes. Thanks!

Yes, I’m looking for a light that I hold in hands. So I don’t think these form factor are the best for my use case. I want to aim it at the ground (I need to see holes and cracks in the road), but I also need to aim it at street signs or something I want to see in the woods for example.

It happened a few times that my Thrunite battery was all spent before getting back home. But maybe it won’t happen with a 21700 though.

A 21700 is fine for the weight. I won’t mind I’m fine going bigger than my Thrunite. The only thing about the SP36 is it uses 3x18650, which is quite hefty. It’s hard to hold on with the wrist guards. It’s doable, but if I can get a bit smaller light I can also just bring a few extra batteries if needed, it’s better imo.

Thanks again for the suggestions though!

Thanks for the suggestion! I didn’t know about this community, just subscribed. I might post there too later. I can’t find the W51 to do more research unfortunately. But I would prefer a 21700 battery since I would like to match the battery with another flashlight I have in mind for camping purpose.

I migrated from Bitwarden to 1password because I wanted something that works better on Linux. With 1password-cli and PAM integration mainly. Bitwarden worked beautifully under Windows, but once I switched over to Linux, I realised that 1password had more Linux friendly features. I track some discussions over bitwarden that talk about implementing those features, I might come back at some point.

This setting doesn’t exist for me. I just use another launcher anyway.

Thx, for podcasts, I paid for pocketcast a long time ago, so I’m fine for now. I’m mainly looking for this use case, but for a standard RSS reader.

Here is a use case: multiple device sync. With a server client infrastructure, read status are synced to the server, so if I change device, I can pick it up where I left off. Same thing as using a cloud service, but self hosted.

It might. I take the risk. At that point, storage cost will be lower, I’ll just buy a bunch of 20TB drives and build a truenas NAS. In the meantime, I’m satisfied with unraid as I don’t have to spend 2k+ to get 50TB of usable space.

Why would they need production capacity to produce a product that is useless for the NATO military doctrine? That’s just not how NATO countries wage war. Of course they don’t have a good production capacity of a tool they are not likely to use. And even if they wanted to start to produce them at the start of the war, it wouldn’t be ready today, it takes a lot of time and resources to build production capacity from scratch.

I use qtile on X11 and hyprland on Wayland. There is an option on hyprland for exactly that (idleinhibit window rule), but didn’t find a good solution on qtile yet. Anyway I have issues with qtile for other things too (because of X11 mainly).

Plex desktop is also only on flathub.

Lack of knowledge isn’t dumb, it’s just lack of knowledge. You can’t know everything.

I run 2 docker containers, named slightly differently (my setup is a bit more complicated within a stack though). Then I map a different port for the FR one so it doesn’t conflict. Of course, you need a different config volume. Then once the container is up, you can I link my FR sonarr to my EN one. So when I request something on my EN Sonarr, it also adds it to my FR Sonarr.

I also do that with movies, but for HD and 4K instead. I manage multi-language differently.

I’ll PM you for my source of French content.

I’ve been an on and off Linux user for a long time, but my main OS used to be Windows. I recently switched to Linux (Arch btw) and I love it.

For my use cases, here is what I like about windows:

• Office 365
• Gaming
• Onedrive
• Just works
• touch screen and touch pad
• Hardware support
• Autohotkey (can live without)
• Software compatibility
• VR
• Parsec

Here is what I like about Linux

• Dynamic tiling window managers.
• Customization, I can have my notifications on the top right, the way I like them.
• Smooth as fuck: very fast!
• Very clever solutions (looking into NixOS currently for example)
• Terminal: fun to use and it’s fast!
• Much more control over my system.

The things I dislike about windows are mainly that it’s stupid slow compared to Linux and the growing presence of telemetry and ads (though I wasn’t that affected). Also, I can’t replace windows default shortcuts or some functionalities.

What I dislike about Linux is that there is always something that doesn’t work properly. I currently have issues with DPMS. My laptop has trouble with the behavior if the touchpad, sometimes the gestures work, sometimes they don’t, it depends on its mood I guess. I tried Wayland, but with a nvidia card it has a lot of issues, I had to go back to X which sucks since I really prefer the way wayland works. I’m quite technical, but sometimes the solutions don’t really work.

I read a few things in this thread that I disagree with though, namely:

• You can launch apps from PowerShell (terminal)
• You can have package managers, I used scoop, choco and winget. Every app that I use can be installed and updated with those, from PowerShell.
• Pretty sure you can update your system from PowerShell, then you probably can make a script to update everything.
• You can disable auto-updates and auto-reboot in Windows. I never had my computer reboot on me and it stays open 24/7. What I liked is auto-update, but no auto-reboot. I chose when to reboot, only had a notification which was disabled when I was playing a game.
• There are options for launchers, the windows menu or powertoy run.
• You can create shortcuts (similar to .desktop) and you can also make a bat script instead of a bash script.

A lot of comments are about a knowledge deficit, not a capability deficit from Windows.

This is TOTP. I use my password manager for that. I used to use Bitwarden, but I recently switched to 1password.

SSO means single sign on. If I sign on to Google, it automatically sign me on other apps. I use a forward auth on my self hosted services. I used to use authentik but I switched to google since it just works much better. If Google makes a shitty move in that department, I can always fall back to authentik.

I don’t mind using proprietary softwares if they’re good, I just prefer to think about an alternative in case I need to switch.

I installed this week, so I’m not a long time user. But it’s by far the best self hosted photo app that I’ve used. Before that I used nextcloud, but the user experience isn’t as good Imo.

The only things that I miss are automatic albums based on face recognition and pet recognition. I still use google photo to share with family though.

For Gmail, I switched to fastmail. For google photos, I switched for immich.

The services that I still use from them are google maps, YouTube and SSO. They are all services that I wouldn’t mind them shutting down. It’s just that I find them much better than any alternatives.

The Tidal subscription is only available for the account that subscribed to Tidal. Other users can also subscribe themselves, but it’s per user.
