@greedytacothief @AmbiguousProps How does Finamp compare?
Politically obsessed street photographer. Director of Enterprise Architecture, wine enthusiast, novice chess player trying to get better. Linux nerd, Linux gamer, prolific self-hoster, science advocate, Sorkin/Starmerite. Disgraced former scientist and perpetual critic of nonsense and folly.

1·8 months ago@Moneo @SigHunter Networking came to be when there were lots of different implementations of a ‘byte’. The PDP-10 was prevalent at the time the internet was being developed for example, which supported variable byte lengths of up to 36-bits per byte.
Network protocols had to support every device regardless of its byte size, so protocol specifications settled on bits as the lowest common unit size, while referring to 8-bit fields as ‘octets’ before 8-bit became the de facto standard byte length.
@madcaesar @otl It’s a small server running OpenBSD, configured to operate as a router and/or firewall.
Linux and the *BSDs can operate as very good routers and firewalls, usually being much more configurable and enabling you to do more complex than off-the-shelf consumer-level hardware routers. Using them on a small form factor computer with a cheap switch in front of them can give you a better performing and nicer to use alternative.

@squidspinachfootball @marcos Syncthing syncs. It does one way syncs, but if your workflow is complex and depends on one way syncs that’s probably not what you want.
Sync things between operational systems, then replicate to nonoperational systems, and backup to off site segregated systems.
@MonkCanatella Oh, this looks good!
My current solution is VSCode with Dendron and Excalidraw self-hosted using coder.com’s code-server. It’s not perfect, but fits well enough for me as a knowledge management system.
If someone repackages AnyType as a web app I can self-host in a similar way, I’ll be over the moon.
@MigratingtoLemmy @poVoq exactly what a bot would say 🤔
@railsdev @innercitadel Do you not write your web apps in assembler…?
@Lemjukes @Sunny It’s a KVM that you access over IP. It’s physically plugged into a machine’s HDMI and USB ports so, unlike software solutions, it can be used to access the BIOS/UEFI and system functions prior to hitting the desktop (like login managers and recovery consoles), and allows you to boot other operating systems and the like. It can also act as a PXE host for loading disk images, issue Wake On LAN to its connected machine, and likely a bunch of other convenience functions.
