Ok, I've bought an old #eeepc , Now I don't have excuse : I can write anywhere ! #writerdeck
If you read about fire in mountains in Cyprus and if you think about Prot (Protesilaos Stavrou) and his hut (and dogs) there, then he published an article today 2025-07-24: "Wildfires in Cyprus; I am okay", at https://protesilaos.com/news/2025-07-24-wildfires-cyprus-me-okay/ (#emacs)
EDIT: an update by Prot on his Web site, details in the next message.</EDIT>
Wildfires in Cyprus; I am okay

A status update on the ongoing wildfires in my part of Cyprus. I am fine and ready to abandon my hut if necessary.

#TIL how to make a bash script to transfer files present in my MovieCube's #NAS to my FreeBox's #NAS using #BusyBox 1.1.3 (I know ancient version)

Next step : figure out how to automatically launch the script

[Baby steps]

The purpose of all that (apart from learning linux) : #selfhosting as I want my #PKM

My MovieCube is a bit slow to manage #pkm notes. I've transfered to my Freebox but I am facing security issues outside my LAN ! Work in progress #selfhosting
Sarting a new journey : installing #freebsd on an old laptop HP Pavilion dv6. Hoping to make it a home server.

Nice, I just realized that when I favorite an article in Capy Reader (FOSS RSS reader for Android) that's syncing with my self-hosted Miniflux then the article is automatically saved to my self-hosted Readeck instance and shows up in Eckard (FOSS Android client for Readeck). I mean I've set up Readeck integration in Miniflux but I assumed I'd have to specifically send an article there, not just favorite it (actually never used the feature knowingly). Only noticed because I favorited a lot of trash articles to remember to add them to yet another middleware that filters RSS feeds later, which are now all in my Readeck reading list. Oh well, at least now I know that don't have to explicitly share articles from Capy Reader to Eckard, a single tap is enough.

After several weeks of research, I found out how to manage my #selfhosting cloud-ish notes for #PKM.

I have an old EMTEC MovieCube which has a native samba server. I redirect port on my router.

And on my Android phone, I have CIFS Document provider to set the samba connection as local storage.

For reading, editing and creating my Markdown notes, I use QuickMark. Very lightweight and smooth

Perfect set-up for me

My first contribution ever to #opensource . A small step for the community, but a big one for me !! Thanks @patrizio #qownnotes #pkm
