Random statistics: my new #hugo website (deployed #html + #css files) is ca. 1.2MB in size (without images).The old #drupal site was ca. 130MB in size (without images) plus 8.5MB in SQL dump.Same user-visible content in both sites.

@lord #hugo claims to be the fastest static site generator, which could be true. Granted, my generated site is relatively small (70 #html pages, 30 #rss feeds, 1 sitemap, 1 #css file).A "hugo" run (including "minification" of HTML/CSS) generates those in 70ms or so on my box.If you meant how fast you can write content, it's at least as fast as any CMS I'd say, you just write #markdown in any text-editor.

@_mark I'm using #andotp, works nicely here. Haven't tried other #Foss apps yet, though.

@vanitasvitae You can block some of that with #Netguard for example.

@noorul @vanitasvitae #netguard can block individual domains among other things, yeah. So you can easily prevent #spotify from accessing *.facebook.com and crap like that, and the music streaming continues to work just fine.

@vanitasvitae @noorul Yeah, unfortunately. If you find a #FOSS #spotify app for #Android, or some other convenient method to legally stream any and all music mankind ever produced, please let me know. I'd be happy to switch as well.

Here we go: my latest #creativecommons (CC-BY 3.0) #music video is finally done.https://share.tube/videos/watch/60de4993-7f99-4b70-911d-ca61baa43112Guitar composition by Thomas Merk, arrangement + other instruments + video by me.All individual tracks available over at #ccmixter:http://ccmixter.org/files/UweHermann/59381If anyone wants to use any of that and/or do another remix, please go ahead.Any feedback is very welcome of course! This is just a hobby for me (I'm not a professional musician), so I don't really know what the hell I'm doing 😅

@tuxcrafting @karen @mansr Yeah, apparently there's DSPs out there where CHAR_BIT is 16 or 12 or 9 or 40. You can be quite sure that pretty much zero software or libraries will be portable enough to work there out of the box, unless specifically designed for those systems.

@LibertyPaulM True, though there are also usable DIY setups that can be done with open-source software and firmware.The majority of people will of course run whatever garbage some random IoT company sells them, unfortunately.

@kelbot I'm using #OpenWRT on a "BT HomeHub 5.0 Type A" as home router, with a VDSL2 (100Mbit/s downstream, 40 Mbit/s upstream) provider.Quite happy with the setup: VDSL performance is great, all OSS software of course, no hidden or no-so-hidden vendor backdoors and similar crap, no ancient software with security issues due to lack of vendor updates, etc.Additionally I run OpenWRT's "luci-adblock" module for DNS-based ad blocking across my whole home network.https://openwrt.org/toh/bt/homehub_v5a

@codesections I soft-wrap both code and mails at <= 80 chars, I work in 80x25 xterms and actual text consoles a lot, editing mails and code in vim and mutt.Only exceptions are when the code looks much more horrible when wrapped than in longer lines.Unrelated, but I don't do HTML email myself, and I have a filter which puts every incoming HTML mail in my spam folder by default.

@codesections Random other debug idea: boot a Linux live distro and check it there's any weird errors in dmesg etc.

@kelbot @kev Discs are problematic for backups too, unfortunately. In my experience they tend to die faster than I'd like. I'd do multiple backups and/or on different media to reduce risk.

Holy crap. There's an #OSS project called #AsteroidOS, a smartwatch OS based on #Linux and some #Android components via libhybris, #openembedded, #Qt QML for UI and watchfaces.https://asteroidos.org/This is probably the most open and privacy-friendly way to run a smartwatch (no Google or Samsung or Apple or ... accounts/spyware required, etc).There's a matching Android app called #AsteroidOSSync in #fdroid as well, for the smartphone side.Bought an LG G Watch Urbane on eBay for testing.

@danyspin97 "check" is nice, but there's a few others as well.

@louwestin @kev Yeah, but you can simply reinstall grub again afterwards, it's a bit inconvenient but not too big of a problem.

@Gina I've used kdenlive successfully for a few of my #creativecommons music videos, but I have to admit I haven't tried OpenShot or Olive yet, which are supposed to be pretty good as well.
