Don’t know why I could not see this repply until today. It’s been ascertained that chirp is not in the repo for Raspian Linux, so indeed that option never worked.

What PC game broke your OS? That’s mad.
My first attempt was apt-get install. I’m fairly comfortable with Linux as a server (basic lamp setup) though I make no claims if being an expert.
It’s clearly not in the default repos for Raspian (at least not when I tried), and that could be half my issue, my hardware while popular is not x86 or x86-64.
I’m no bash wizard, but I grew up with computers through the 80’s and am comfortable with using a cli, doesn’t bother me at all.
My OP got messed up with the Lemmy app I’m using and thus a large chunk went missing.
I’m actually using Raspian on a raspberry pi, and I don’t think there is a binary for armhf available through the more typical means.
For everything else I just apt-get install xxx.
I’ll revisit later.
I appreciate the effort in your post.
Neither do I. If the errors made sense or the tutorials were more current I suspect I’d have no issue.
Great, you can accomplish the bare essentials with Linux.
Now how do I install a program called chirp for programming 2 way radios?
Searched for a week and gave up as each set of instructions lead down a broken, redundant dependency rabbit hole with no solution in sight, Flatpack this, snap that, no explanation or even a searchable clue that could begin me a solution.
In windows I just unzip the nightly build to a directory of my choice, run the executable and it works.
Sure… Not everyone knows or needs to know about these edge case applications, but point stands, it works in windows, and everyone encounters an edge case sooner or later.
I’m keen to ditch the Microsoft hole, and I have no issue with making an effort to learn, but I can’t afford to or my life in hold for hours or days at a time in order to accomplish things that already work in seconds.
I think my simple issue here is… I’m not incompetent. I can comfortably navigate a fine system in a shell, can mount and unmount, can tar -xvzf a tarball, can do most things up to writing a shell script from scratch (could cobble something
I’d disagree with this.
VPS is opposed to a dedicated server, and actually is a kind of shared hosting because as a VPS user you a allocated a ‘share’ of resources on a machine where others also have a ‘share’ of resources.
Shared housing more typically refers to simpler web hosting where multiple users have their website servers from shared hardware.
I think this is the best take. This alone if it went nowhere is fairly harmless.
But I think we know what it really is, is the start of a slippery slope.
Oh shit… I thought the $/hr was a good idea until you mentioned Factorio.
I’d be careful with that suggestion. Some external readers will only read SATA M.2, Dube will only read NVMe M.2.
Ideally you’d want I’ve is each or one that will do both for maximum compatibility.
Though most drives do seem to be NVMe now.
Any more info on this Eufy issue? A came across a camera system if theirs that’s having issues. Might have to read up tomorrow.
Ooof… Half that list is illegal to DIY in Australia. We have the dumbest laws for electrical and plumbing.
Ham Radio
Some aren’t even aware the hobby still exists.
Easy to get licenced in most places, ham radios are cool pieces of clever tech. So many sub hobbies within. Digital modes, long distance, electronics, antenna design and building.
Great…
When can we play Zelda on PC?
Fuck Nintendo getting ports handed to them and giving zero back.
Spoiled by the app store?
This is the same price as a windows 11 licence.
What is so app store about that?
Hello self hosted person.
I once had an android port of dune 2,I think it was of questionable legality licence wise.
I don’t remember if it was in the store or if I loaded it.
I lost it’s source but later another version surfaced, but didn’t work as well.
I played through all houses twice each on mobile. Was a great time remembering my 1990’s gaming.
Have had this issue myself asking with other DD card related issues.
I can’t understand why the pi foundation persist with using SD as the only physically practical storage option.
They’re looking post the point of needing a way to snap on reliable EMMC storage, as a default, in a way that doesn’t leave a cable or something permanently plugged into a USB port.
Sure, USB is a fine option, but I hate that it’s only an option and not a designed default.
Most of us only need 8GB or so for the OS, 8GB or good quality durable EMMC should hardly cost anything.
Other tiny computers and even economy notebooks and Chromebooks already use this.
