@zen-logic

I do software development, technology, manga, anime, music, vintage/retro computing and gaming and electronics stuff. If you are thinking, "what does all that have in common?", then you've never met an old school otaku geek before.

File Hunter Self-hosted file cataloging and deduplication. Browse disconnected drives, find duplicates across terabytes, manage everything from any browser.

I have too many USB drives, external SSDs, and archive disks, and I could never remember what was on which one. So I built File Hunter. #selfhosted #homelab #opensource #datahoard

File Hunter β€” Your Files, Your Server, Your Rules

Too many drives, too many backups, where did I put that file?
I was sick of losing stuff when migrating machines so I built a tool to solve the problem. You might find it useful too!

Theirs is a land of hope and glory
Mine is the green field and the factory floor
Theirs are the skies all dark with bombers
And mine is the peace we knew
Between the wars

I kept the faith and I kept voting
Not for the iron fist but for the helping hand
For theirs is a land with a wall around it
And mine is a faith in my fellow man

He and his fuckwit mates made quite a bit of cash in stocks, so perhaps that was what he wanted?

Just wait for him to do it again.

The "radical" ideas he espouses are only grist to the wheel. He will use any old shite to progress his agenda.

Musk hasn't been radicalised, he's always been a c**t, a racist and looking to build a technocracy. He originally planned to build a technocracy on Mars, but it turned out that the USA was easier.

Assuming the sauce recipe includes cheese, beer, worcestershire sauce and mustard I think it's probably legit. If not then I guarantee that at least a million Welsh ghosts will haunt you.

Resurrecting old server towers from the 2010s for modern use is surprisingly satisfying, and actually pretty surprising how useful they still are. Let's fight e-waste!!!

β€œA rerun of Tory austerity by making poor people poorer isn't what Labour should be about. Instead, the government should explore raising extra funds from wealthy corporations and individuals”

Hi George, I wrote this about 30 years ago (and I'm in the UK, so forgive the linguistic nuance that some words have in the USA). Nothing has changed, except we now have what I always feared....

I still remember what I was doing the first time I heard this album. I can't tell you what however, but it was good.

This is *exactly* why walled garden apps are walled gardens and also why ppl like TBL and RMS have been arguing against them forever.

The first to gain market share wins the whole market.

Breaking that monopoly is impossible without migrating existing user data, and most users can't be arsed...

I love these. I've owned a couple back in the day and FFS I wish I never got rid of them. This was my first introduction to "remote computing".

Because I'm not an "influencer" or a well known "content creator" (both terms I hate with a passion), I don't think anyone ever sees my posts except on the "Following" feed. Prove me wrong.

1) Killer Queen

3) Whatever it was I cooked the last time I just threw whatever was left over into a pan and fried it. I called it "dinner"
