Die @joplinapp@mastodon.social nutze ich in Verbindung mit #Nextcloud schon einige Jahre. Sie ist zu meinem wichtigsten Arbeitsmittel geworden.
Aber erst vor Kurzem habe ich festgestellt, wie genial der dazugeörige #WebClipper ist, um Inhalte aus Webseiten in #Markdown zu speichern:

Einen #Desktop #PC habe ich mir vor ein paar Jahren zusammengebaut. Vielleicht hatte ich keine glückliche Hand bei der Auswahl von #CPU, #RAM und #Motherboard und das Zusammenspiel ist nicht optimal?
Er läuft sehr gut - bis auf unvermittelte Totalabstürtze ohne Logeinträge, die mir weiterhelfen konnten.
Irgendwann stolperte ich über ein #Gnome AdOn zur leichten Ampassung der CPU Leistung. Nach der Begrenzung der max. Frequenz via Multimedia-Mode lief er stabil.
Unter #ubuntu 24 funktioniert das AdOn nicht mehr und ich habe mir nun ein Script eingerichtet, welches nach dem Start die max. Frequenz begrenzt:
for cpu in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-9]*; do
cpufreq-set -c "${cpu##*/cpu}" -u 4490000
doneSchrittweise habe ich die Frequenz von ca. 4,3 GHZ nach jedem Neustart erhöht, und habe so die Stufe herausbekommen, bis der er ohne Absturtz läuft.Interessanteweise stürtze er nicht bei Operationen ab, bei denen man es erwartet hätte, z.B. der Transkodierung von #Video. Das letzte Mal rauschte er in die Tiefe, als ich lediglich mit #Firefox #GitHub aufgerufen hatte ... was auch immer da die Frequenz nach oben getrieben hat?
Es handlet sich um einen Intel® Core™ i7-9700. Dass ich die 4,7 GHz nicht zur Verfügung habe stört mich übrigens gar nicht. Jedenfalls bemerke ich keine langsamere Arbeitsumgebung durch die Begrenzung ... und Gnome ist offenbar seit den neuen Versionen stark optimiert worden, was die Geschwindigkeit angeht...

We're so happy to annouce that we have an open source design devroom and we're now accepting calls for talks via the FOSDEM pretalx system.
Open Source Design has been part of FOSDEM for over a decade now, making sure designers who work with, or contribute to free, libre and open source software (FLOSS) a platform to share their ideas.

🪟 Windows 10 končí.
🖥️ Počítač nemusí běžet jen na Windows.
Existují otevřené systémy jako Linux, které zvládnou všechno od běžného používání po práci i kreativitu — a bez reklam, telemetrie nebo nucených účtů.
☁️ A data nemusí být v cizích rukou.
Služby jako Nextcloud umí nahradit Google Drive, Dropbox, Microsoft 365 i iCloud. Sdílení souborů, kalendář, kontakty, poznámky, chat, videohovory… všechno běží otevřeně a s respektem k uživatelům – tak, jak to děláme na Oscloud.cz.
💡 Oscloud.cz nabízí Nextcloud i další open-source aplikace pro běžné uživatele, firmy i komunity.
Bez reklam, bez sběru dat, s podporou v češtině.
Změna nemusí bolet. Jen začít pomalu — třeba od synchronizace souborů nebo kalendáře.
A zjistit, že svoboda není jen slovo, ale způsob, jak si technologie znovu přivlastnit.

Hey @delta! Reading this delta.chat/en/2025-05-22-brows… got me thinking. I live in Firefox but miss Chrome’s one-click “Install PWA as app”. What about a Tauri-based helper + a Firefox extension that wraps a PWA into a desktop app in one step? Hosting stays light: the PWA is cached; relays/self-hosted instances can serve the client. Keeps control with admins. Interested? 👍🏻

Windows 11 is, well, shit. But, Windows is modular, and pretty much everything can be removed or modified with the right tools and knowhow.
Here's a 23 minute special showing how to un-enshittify Windows 11 from stock install to finish, using open source and/or completely free tools.
