Would you be interested in contributing a short guide on the setup?

I am not confident enough in my knowledge of TrueNAS apps myself to judge if my setup process is how you’re supposed to do custom apps, tbh, so i’d rather not try to contribute a guide that could potentially have other users run into trouble 😅

I bookmarked this post a few days ago, but only just had the time to set it up today. Installing it as a custom app on TrueNAS was very easy, if only I had known it would just be a 3 minute job :D

I am running TrueNAS as well, and I keep snapshots for about a week. When I set up snapshots, I noticed the same issue as you: On a Linux client there seems to be no convenient way to browse these snapshots using the file manager (like “previous versions” on windows), and the only way I was able to browse snapshots was using ssh into the TrueNAS system.

While inconvenient, I figured that’s good enough for me, I don’t really tend to accidentally delete files off my system and on the rare occasion that I do, I can just use the command line. So far, I didn’t have the need to access an earlier snapshot.

But having a convenient way to browse the snapshots using a webUI is great, Thank you for creating this application, so far it works great as a custom application on TrueNAS, I was able to successfully browse and download files from previous snapshots :)

Some things that can be useful, although I don’t know how easily they can be implemented:

• When viewing a snapshot, highlight files (and possibly folders) that differ from the current state (deleted files in red, modified files in yellow, for example)
• Downloading entire folders, that would probably require timeship to zip them up beforehand, though.

The Stadia Controller and the Gullikit KK3 Series have built in batteries and therefore come with their own charging circuit.

The Steam Controller does not charge the batteries, you have to use an external AA charger

The 8bitdo Pro 2 comes with a rechargable battery pack that sits in the AA compartment of the controller (similar to the old xbox 360 play-and-charge kits) and can be charged via USB. I don’t know if that charge function is limited to their battery pack, or if it will work with AA rechargables as well. My guess is, though, that it doesn’t, because it would have to somehow identify if the cells are actually rechargable, or if they are just alkaline batteries - trying to charge alkalines can be dangerous.

Allthough persoanlly, I consider using an external AA charger a convenience.

I do have quite a few different controllers, all work fine on linux for me:

• Xbox One controllers (newer models, older ones don’t support bluetooth)
• 8bitdo SN30 Pro 2
• Gulikit KK3 Pro
• Steam Controller
• Google Stadia

The Stadia Controller is not my favourite, but it still works well. I mainly use the Gulikit and 8bitdo ones, depending on the game and wether my main input is meant to be d-pad or left joystick.
The Steam Controller is unique, but I rarely use it.
Bonus points for the 8bitdo Pro 2, the Steam Controller and the Xbox Controllers using AA batteries instead of relying on built in, proprietary rechargable batteries. Pair them with some good IKEA Ladda rechargables and they are awesome.

As someone who uses nextcloud exclusively for calDAV and cardDAV, what replacements are recommended?

I am still playing silksong, although I tend to get stuck occasionally, the difficulty in act 3 is pretty high.

When I want to relax, I play some doom eternal (just finished the campaign and first DLC, started the second one).

Also, some Lego Star Wars: Skywalker Saga

Baby diarrhea green

Borderlands 4 is better than Borderlands 4, but not even half as good as Borderlands 4.

Looking forward to the sequel, Borderlands 4.

My workflow is:
-Musicbrainz Picard to get all the information from an online database
-clean up the tags with kid3 (Linux), rename files and folders
-use mp3gain to “normalize” all songs to the same level, so I don’t have to constantly adjust the volume.

I can’t find any info about a blanket ban on idle/clicker games, and quite frankly, I don’t see why valve would ban them.

For them, it’s free money:

1. the developer has to pay a flat fee for the game to appear on the storefront
2. the developer has to pay an additional fee to enable community items
3. both the developer as well as valve receive a percentage cut of the sale price in the community marketplace

my guess is that a lot of people let the game idle in the background to farm items, that’s why it’s so “popular”. It’s not “active players”, it’s just a large number of people farming items in the hopes to get one they can sell for a larger sum.
Afaik it has been in the top charts for over a year.

Banana (which I’ve never even heard of and I have no clue why it’s that popular).

It’s an idle/clicker game that drops steam items that can, theoretically, be sold for money. I can’t recommend it.

office package doesnt just come with windows any more

strictly speaking, it never was part of windows, or came bundled with it from Microsoft. Our first family windows computer (Win 98) didn’t come with an office license, instead the manufacturer included only “Word” and “Works” as a “value add”. It was a separate piece of software that we could install (or not if we chose to).

Up to including windows 7, every single computer any of my friends and family purchased came only with a windows license, If they wanted MS Office, they had to buy the license separately and install the software package themselves. Sometimes it might have come preinstalled as a trial, but that still required purchasing a license after a set amount of time (usually 90 days, I believe), and it varied from OEM to OEM, as did their other bloatware (Norton, Eset, etc.).

I have only noticed Windows installing office out of the box with Windows 10/11, where they install the app from the MS store during the initial setup - I assume they started this on Windows 8 as well, but I have only seen PCs being upgraded from 7 to 8/8.1, never a fresh install.

But even then, it’s just a limited trial for their office 365 suite.
