I moved from 256 to 1tb.

First I used an usb-c adapter for the new ssd, this allowed me to copy all the files over from the existing disk using desktop mode and some terminal commands. Even the hidden files etc. After proper formatting and prepping the new disk.

Then I just replaced the old with the 1tb. Everything was the same: no loss of anything. The full 1tb was usable as well.

I followed a tut online just for the commands. If you don’t find it: shoot! I will digg in my history :)

Haha indeed!

It’s funny when it starts to just invent things. Like packages, with version number!, that… do not exists…

Or when it outputs code without using the variables …

The most annoying thing is imho that it keeps explaining everything al the time. Even when I prompt “you have a working app with vuejs…” and others it sometimes still explains how to setup the app.

That said: the tool has become a staple in my workflow whenever I need a starting point. Or have to do some math algorithmic things

Same.

As someone who uses the actual rss feeds, reading the same feed without interaction is just … a waste of time. Clutter. Annoying even.

Like you said: I come here for the interaction and/or to find an interesting article someone found in a channel I’m unaware off. Not bot rss feed content.

The memes I don’t remember but … I’m old. And…

Reading this gave me an instant flashback of dropping my old Ericsson on a train and it just … lost all its parts! Man that was 😱

Yes I had to hunt for: the battery, the battery cover and the SIM card! In those days the latter was bigger than we have now but very expensive.

To be honest: hot swappable wasn’t all that cool or user friendly at all. You had the dropping issue, the dirt and grime got in the cracks causing it to loose contact. Just like a mouse ball back in the day. All that and … when it was time to change it, never found a replacement and the phone was just outdated anyway.

Now all those different chargers we had? That was the real nightmare. Man! Very glad that is solved, even with the mess usb-c is.

I fear this is again one of those rules politician’s make without any knowledge; or they just ignore reality. Per usual.

Finally had some time to do this and it is somewhat “easy” … but it depends. For me finding the TOTK rom was the hardest, only because I was to lazy to take it from my switch. I have bought a physical copy, it’s the booting to the tools that is just nerve rekking for me.

The Egg Ns Sim… site is your friend BUT I did already have a fully working Emudeck install with my own Switch private keys and other things. I have a first gen one, but even so I had to 3d print a thing to short circuit some pins and patiently trying to get it into the special boot modus. I followed some guides on the net, don’t remember exactly which one… only that it was extremely frustrating getting the thing booting correctly. Thinking now I think it was the a guide in the docs of Yuzu I followed.

In the end: it’s worth it. TOTK runs very smooth for me, even if I want to keep it at 1.0.0 (easy dupe glitch!!) for now with only the 60fps static mod (search gbatemp.net 5.0 post). That said I’m back at the sky tutorial level. it has some issues with fused weapons but overall I get the feeling the game is faster and runs better on the deck. Especially the loading times.

If only Nintendo came to reality and released ports for other machines. I actually would have bought it in a heartbeat. Even twice.

Finally had some time to do this and you’re totally right: in the end it was fairly easy to do. even with motion controls.

Haha good one! I was wondering why that name sounded familiar and this is it.

Very good film to see… once and never ever unsee or forget the images, isn’t it?

Should have been clearer: traveling would be an added bonus. I don’t travel a lot. Although this might be a good solution: if their is a dock that is small for the switch that does work for al my other devices :)) but like you said the power delivery is often the issue then.

I sometimes feel like sure with usb-c we have a single connector but it’s all more complicated than now even before we had usb. We had multiple connectors then but not “oh that cable/psu does have the good connector but not the watt or density for fast charging/data or whatever”

That said: al the different micro usb connectors and usb3 connectors was a nightmare as wel. Af least that is solved now I guess.

Damnit. Ugh. :( I thought I read that somewhere.

Man I love Nintendo, bought almost all consoles over the years but their strange overly protective platform guarding makes zero sense. Especially in 2023. It’s even worse than Apple imho.

Yeah I know, but I like the motion controls.

And frankly the exclusives is the only thing I play on my Switch anymore. It’s just easier. Especially given I do not have much time anymore to tinker with things like when I was 20y ago. 😉

But… it is on my todo - someday - list for sure!

Forgot to mention: 2 can even just send a notification to Slack to my parents. We are already using this. They are helping with testing the SaaS

Nope. 2.5km or so but in a dense populated city 😁

I’m interested in your terrifying view though. Maybe I’m missing something, this is roughly what’s in my head now: (1 is my home, 2 is a a cloud server, 3 is my parents)

• 1: pushes the relevant entities to 2. Read only.
• 2 received the data. Validation here is a token system with permissions. I’m going to use my SaaS to do this given it already has this in place
• 2 is storing the values in a database
• 3 gets notified of the new values with web hooks. Again by 2, something I have yet to build in de SaaS but will be needed anyway
• 2 can sanitize the values when needed. It will absolutely do validation and verification and such
• 2 is very secure and is the only one who will do write, only to his own db
• I’m not sure if 3 would be able to react to entities directly on 2 but I will investigate this. If not I can push the values
• we make a read only graph on 3 that just displays the values.
• I’m now thinking that doesn’t even have to be on 3 yet, I can just make a very secure view for them in the SaaS. With login and things, something that I already have. I can use an iFrame to let them view it in a dashboard of HA
• later we could do automations when needed but that is not that urgent given I work from home and my parents are retired.

For me this seems very secure, more so given we mostly have read only things. maybe there is something I’m missing?

Sidenote: we have Smappee as well and can access each others home through their app. We can use this at first but it would just be cool to make this flow. I for one don’t want to be this dependent of some vendor, if you know what I mean…

Hmm maybe Unraid with the community store? When you got unraid running its just a matter of selecting an app from the store and hop: it runs. Kinda…

For me it’s simple: my ISP has crippled the upload to 30mbps making it impossible to host something from my home publically (download is 300mbps or more) but I do selfhost on unraid … it’s just for stuff in my house or for my privately with vpn outside. I run a TON of apps this way… I just don’t need them to be … public they are just for me to use at home mostly.

That for me is also selfhosting.

Now that said: I still ask the same question to my isp when they want to upsell me something: and what about the upload? The sales persons mostly don’t know what I mean or how it matters 🤦‍♀️… anyway I’ve been doing this for 20+ years now…… kinda lost hope? But nah not yet 😏 … “hoop doet leven” we tell or selves over here (translates to: hope is live)
