Introduction 
 In my previous post about setting up my uConsole , I said that instead of using Firefox, I try using chawan , a TUI browser with (some) CSS, JS and images support. Sometime I still use Firefox, but try to limit its usage for when a page is really not usable in Chawan. The reason being the very limited CPU of the RaspberryPi 4 powering my uConsole (I could switch to a RaspberryPi…
Introduction 
 The goal of this post is to go through my current setup for my uConsole (by ClockworkPi ) and everything I had to do to make it happen. I have the feeling it will be useful for my future self if something fails or possibly for my future Pilet if it end up being delivered at some point (the joy of kickstarter)… Or any other cyberdeck I end up using the most… 
 The tldr; is:…
This will be a short post, but I must write about it so I don’t waste time again next time I have the problem… 
 While I was reinstalling from scratch my uConsole with Debian Trixie (as the upgrade from Bookworm does not work) and writing my next post about my full uConsole setup, I stumbled upon a weird error when trying to connect to it via SSH. 
 After the fresh install, I ensure…
I’ve started my selfhosting somewhere between 2005 and 2007 (I don’t exactly remember…), a long, long time ago! I have a lengthy and unfinished draft to talk more about that story, but I read a blog post from Valère (in French) a couple of months ago that sparks this particular post in the meantime. 
 I’m not going to talk about the basics of “why selfhosting”,…
Introduction 
 I (not so) recently received my clockworkpi uConsole and didn’t took the time to play with it yet as June, July and early August where full of way too many pro and personal things… But I took the time during the weekend to set it up using a custom debian ISO build for it that worked great. But more on all that later. 
 The first thing I wanted to do after the OS…
Weird idea: #Selfhosting 5 different #finger servers (all named after a finger, eg: thumb.finger.bacardi55.io, index.finger.bacardi55.io, middle.finger.bacardi55.io, …) with 5 different goals: latest tinylog entry, latest gemlog, latest blog post, and other useless thing… 
 I know there is absolutely no good reasons to do so except “because I can” and “it would make me…
I received my #clockwork #uconsole 2 weeks ago, but because I was sick and then had to travel for work, I haven’t been able to play with it since I got it… 
 
 

 My short term goals: 
 
 Install debian bookworm 
 Encrypt only my home directory (I think full encryption might be to harsh for micro sd card) 
 Install emacs, syncthing and git so I can write and…
After reinstalling my NAS last week-end (using OpenMediaVault ) due to mistakes on my part, I wanted to use some data stored on my NAS from an LXC container managed on my proxmox cluster. In my head, it was supposed to be very straight forward… But if I’m writing this now, it means it didn’t go as planned :D. 
 Creating the NFS shared directory was as simple as planned: Using the…

 While I have nothing against the writer of this post and I don’t care if they decided to use their terminal within their web browser, I do believe this is yet another example of how we broke our use of computer and the web in general… 
 « Everything should be a web app » is just a very bad idea for so many reasons that I’m too tired to…
Just discovered that an android application for #readeck already exists! I wasn’t aware of that and that might be a game changer for my readeck usage as it does provide offline usage!

 Will try it later today!

 So mozilla is shutting down pocket… Yet another good move from them /s. I guess they need the money to develop more AI bullshit and focus their R&D money where their own users don’t want it to go… 
 Anyway, I’ve never used that tool anyway, but I can strongly advice using either #wallabag or #readeck . Both are great…
That’s the 3rd time today that I had to reach out to someone because they deployed an anti AI service like #anubis or #goaway . I have nothing against these people that just try to protect their service / assets from these shitty bot scrapping the web like they own it (when normal people do it, they get sued though)… 
 That’s what the AI slop is giving us right now: shitty AI…

I just love email conversations that I sometimes have with other bloggers or people that read some of my blog posts. Most people reaching out (or people I reach out to) are nice and open. And it often sparks new thoughts and ideas in a very positive manner! 
 As written in my about page:

 This seems both cool and useless… I’d love to try it at least once but I really don’t want to spend the money for it. 

I really like that I can now write one microblog entry and decide to deploy it on both or either my website (as notes ) and/or on my capsule as a tinylog entry !
I need to write more about this, but basically it goes like this: 
 
 write in emacs/orgmode the entry using a capture template to preformat the entry (specially the frontmatter) 
 Indicate in the frontmatter the channel:…
I love my new Dygma Raise 2 keyboard ! 
 Mandatory picture:

 
 
 


 
 (This is mainly an entry to test my new micro blogging workflow for my tinylog and on my website) 

My previous post explained my journey with keyboards that lead me to the Dygma Raise 2 . It is now time to write my actual review of this awesome keyboard! 
 The purchased configuration 
 First, let’s talk about the configuration I chose for my Dygma Raise 2: 
 
 Color: white (to change my usual black keyboard) 
 Language: English UK (ISO keyboard layout) 
 Switches:…
Nota: This post was supposed to be a review of the Dygma Raise 2 keyboard, but ended up being about my story with keyboard to arrive to the Dygma Raise 2… It is already way too long so I decided to stop there and I will write another post to do an actual review instead of writing a post too long to read :-). If you care only about the review, wait for the next post! 
 Before 2017, I…

Today, I decided to over-complicate my deployment workflow… again! Or maybe simplified it… I am not sure 🤣… 
 Anyway, in a nutshell, what I did is removed content from my blog and capsule repository and instead have one content repository instead. 
 Previously, I had: 
 
 a blog repository, containing all hugo (static site generator) related files (template, config, …) as well as…
