Yes it’s not too much bother to set this up, it can be put into ansible and once working I’ve not had to touch it again. Here’s another dracut tool using dropbear that works well and has decent instructions on setup: dracut-crypt-ssh
The crypt-ssh dracut module allows remote unlocking of systems with full disk encryption via ssh
Stow/chezmoi/your choice for dotfiles, config mgmt for system config. You don’t need to rebuild whole server to start with ansible tho, you can take over one file at a time and grow as you learn.
As you’ve found I don’t know of a tool that will cover both usecases as config mgmt for dotfiles is too much and dotfile mgrs for system config is probably out of their scope.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Having trouble upgrading Fedora from 41 to 42, plus WiFi problems.

That rpmfusion package looks like trouble, can you uninstall it or all of rpmfusion before upgrading? I also see internet problems here also so you might be better off fixing that first.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Briar - secure p2p group communicationsEnglish
8·23 days agoMessages are only sent when both online though, thet’s the bigger difference (unless using Briar Mailbox). Also it can send over wifi and bluetooth without internet connection i.e. no other devices involved.

F-Droid@lemmy.ml•Google's dev registration plan will end the F-Droid project
25·27 days agoFdroid are:
appealing to regulators and competition authorities to scrutinize Google’s proposals, and for developers and users to put pressure on politicians.
So I think these are preferred avenues of action right now.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Which of the 3 standard compression algorithms on Unix (gz, xz, or bz2) is best for long term data archival at their highest compression?
7·1 month agoUpgrade from compression tools to backup tools. Look into using restic (a tool with dedup, compression and checksumming) on a filesystem which also checksums and compresses (btrfs/zfs) - that’s probably most reasonable protection and space saving available. Between restic’s checks and the filesystem you will know when a bit flips and that’s when you replace the hardware (restoring from one of your other backups).

Linux@lemmy.ml•Change behaviour of 'application not responding' notification? (SOLVED)
6·1 month agoTry this:
gsettings set org.gnome.mutter check-alive-timeout 10000
Value is in ms so 10000=10s. You can also set it to 0 to disable.

0·2 months agoMarkor is great! It’s a small thing but I like its one tap to mark a todo done in markdown list. Often make lists then walk around with my mobile checking things off. Syncthing keeps it all up to date.
p.s. I didn’t know about those features either so thank you
Synching will create a conflict file when this happens. Nothing is lost but a user must look out for these files and merge manually.
KeepassXC has its own merge logic and will happily absorb changes to a file on disk whilst open. However if two offline machines both change a database then you will get a conflict file and will have to ask keepass to merge them.
