I'm booting openwrt off a usb c thumb drive connected to a fanless Celeron mini pc. The pc is cool but the thumb drive is so hot i can't touch it.

Any ideas?

Is there a self-hosted downloader that would automatically download liked videos or the ones added to a specific playlist?

And why do you use them?

(I know wireguard, tailscale and so on are the preferred options. But for some reaon I can't use any vpn atm)

I'm looking for some tunneling solution which:

-is NOT Cloudflare Tunnels

-doesn't need a VPN (so wireguard or openvpn are ruled out)

-is not SSH tunnel

I need something like FRP preferably with a luci app and automatic ssl certificate for my subdomain.

Any recommendations?

I used to hate android emulators, since the ones I'd tested on Windows were ad-ridden, slow bloatware.

The other day I needed to run an android app on Fedora 40.

I tried Waydroid and it worked very well. The app ran supersmooth as if it was running natively.

Also the cli syntax was very sane an user friendly.

waydroid app install|run|list ...

So if you need an Android app on linux the experience might be better than what you think it would be.

Jellyfin is very unreliable with live tv in my experience. It takes ages to reload a playlist and sometimes the old channels still appear in library. Is there a better alternative?

I have an openwrt router at home which also acts as my home server. It's running a bunch of services using docker (Jellyfin, Nextcloud, etc.)

I have set up an SSH tunnel between my openwrt router and VPS and can access jellyfin successfully.

I understand that I need to set up a reverse proxy to access multiple services and have https.

But I'm confused if I should set up this reverse proxy on the VPS or on the router itself. Is nginx the easiest option? Should i add subdomains in cloudflare for every service?

Pease don't recommend vpns since they are all blocked where i live (wireguard, tailscale openVPN, etc.) I'm limited to using ssh tunneling only.

Thanks

StartOS facilitates the entire process of discovering, installing, configuring, and using any variety of open-source software from anywhere in the world without trusting anyone.

I upgraded to Fedora 40 workstation a couple of days ago. I never turn off or suspend my laptop (a Thinkbook 14s Yoga) and it was guranteed to be dead if i left it unplugged for a couple of hours before the update.

With Fedora 40 it's been unplugged for almost 5 hours and still has 52% battey left (down from 59% when i unplugged the charger).

I noticed both TLP and auto-cpufreq have been disabled after the update so this looks like default power settings are being used.

I'm not sure if it means I'll be getting consistently better battery life but i thought maybe it's a good idea to share this first impression anyway.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Where I live wireguard and openvpn are completely blocked and my isp doesn't provide a public ip.

Tailsclale and cloudflare tunnels don't work either.

Is there a last resort method for accessing my home server (a mini pc running openwrt and docker).

Thanks!

There is a very annoying problem with archive extraction on Linux. I always sort my files by "last modified" and want my latest files and folders on top in any file manager. When I download and extract an archive, the extracted folder is placed toward the middle or bottom of the list apparently because the original timestamps of files are retained. If I'm not mistaken I didn't have this issue on my MacBook and the extracted archives would appear on the top of the list.

Workaround: In Ark if I choose extract to subfolder and type a name for the new folder, it is treated as recently modified and is placed at the top. But I don't want to enter a name every time.

Shouldn't an extracted folder be treated as recently modified??

Any ideas?

The only game I have ever played is FIFA on a PS4. Now I have a gaming laptop but have no idea how I should go about playing games on Linux. Appreciate your help in advance!
