Choose monitor carefully: when using Dell #monitor on Nvidia graphics with proprietary driver for #Linux issue happens when monitor connected via DisplayPort sleeps - it cannot wake up afterwards. Need to fallback to HDMI to get view. Didn't manage to find workaround yet - according to forums it needs to be solved in GPU driver or monitor firmware level 🤔 #hardware #driver #gpu

Peertube has scripts that allows you to upload a complete YouTube-Channel to a desired peertube account.
That way, you can also automatically mirror YouTube-Channels to a PeerTube Channel, from e.g. your laptop.
You don't have to own the instance, you just need an account on that instance.

Boost appreciated :) cc @Framasoft

Fun fact: you can't name any file anywhere in windows 10 "aux.txt" or "aux" anything with any extension, because it was a reserved name in CP/M before dos was a thing.
If you commit "aux.txt" to a git repo, you break it for windows users. If you distribute "aux.txt" in a zip file, windows computers cannot extract it without error.

Problems with #libidn after #Ubuntu Bionic update? One of my servers started failing 2FA, turns out libidn was misbehaving. Revert to older version: wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/main/libi/libidn2/libidn2-0_2.0.4-1.1build2_amd64.deb && dpkg -i libidn2-0_2.0.4-1.1build2_amd64.deb && apt-mark hold libidn2-0 to workaround it

My dream for Mastodon is for it to be a viable choice as a publishing platform for any creator. In other words, for people to not feel like they're locked in to Twitter or Instagram if they want to be professionally successful.

Installed Touch Screen for Raspberry Pi - still deciding to use it for home automation panel or display Grafana's dashboard with stats of my servers 🤓 Interestingly the biggest trouble to enable touch functionality was not the driver or display server - turned out I was using microUSB cable that was power only (without data channel) 😁 Proper cables are important 🤔 #geek

Ça c'est génial comme projet, et en plus si ça permet de montrer le développement de logiciels libres et de sortir de la main mise de Twitch et Co.

Don't enable 4-byte char support for @nextcloud unless you run absolutely latest version of MySQL or MariaDB! Just had tons of issues on an instance running v.10.0 - luckily full database backup saved the day 🤔 So I chose to update #nextcloud to v.16 and stand by for emoji support later 🤓
@write_as #writefreely v.0.10 is out with two pull requests by me: #Lithuanian translation and LESSC fix on #CentOS 😊 Thanks for mentioning 😊 For those who build from source here's quick upgrade guide: https://fedi.dev/gytis/update-writefreely-server-instance @matt @writefreely #fediverse
