Why can't you find any good MP3 players today? I hate having to use my phone (which doesn't even have an audio jack) to listen to music.

I unironically want devices like OP pic with a modern-day screen but superfluous physical hardware buttons and just a cool "what we thought future tech would look like in the 80s/90s" design. I hate that apple decimated the world with its minimalist designs. I want stuff that looks beautiful and physical and real in and of itself, not just the absence of design to support the "content".

READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

I guess you're referring to data loss which may occur during the time window when you're restoring the backup and cannot collect data that you otherwise could. In that sense backup does not exactly protect you from data loss but it sure as hell minimizes it

#define __NR_mmap                9


this is probably my favorite syscall of all time. we could spend weeks discussing this alone. it is extremely powerful, versatile, and widely used. not to mention, it's one of the (somewhat) rare six argument syscalls. some potential points of discussion:
> the addr argument, and its use without flags, with MAP_FIXED, and with MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE
> file-backed vs anonymous mappings
> the concept of pages, page sizing, and alignment
> guard pages and PROT_NONE
> the actual meaning of SIGSEGV, and how there's more to segfaults than simply process crashes
> core dumps and stack traces
> other related signals, such as SIGBUS
> MAP_GROWSDOWN and the stack
> the use of mmap (as opposed to brk) for allocation via the *alloc family
> manual memory management vs an allocation scheme

I tried wsl but its too fucking slow
TUI apps like vim were unusable in it.

I also tried bash via msys and that worked fine but I never bothered to port all of my batch scripts, shell config, plugins and keybinds over.
It would probably be fine but honestly the command prompt with clink+extensions is very comfy.

Some day I'll take the time to configure everything in bash and then switch over.
Or maybe I'll just learn it for scripting purposes while keeping cmd as my interactive shell.

tobh I have astigmatisms in both eyes and for any dark theme all the text creates shards and haze that makes it really hard to read. When websites for instance don't provide a light theme, it's actually much harder for me to use their website. It isn't just about preference, it makes it physically harder for me to use their website

Or I could just use light themes
>>
>>107841521
Solarized light is the sweetspot for me, and maybe some other beige theme. White backgrounds stress my eyes, black backgrounds create halos.
>>
>>107835866
No. They are better for reading regular text, but for programming, they are objectively worse. Syntax highlighting in bright themes is horrible.
On a dark theme, you can use bright colors, which have good contrast with a dark background, and with each other. For a light background, you are forced to either have little contrast with the background, or make the 'colors' dark, and reduce their contrast between each color, making the whole thing almost pointless.
