Step up in this motherfucker just a-swingin’ my hair.

Probably not exactly what you have in mind, but I’d still recommend The Reality Dysfunction (and the other two books in the Night’s Dawn Trilogy) by Peter F Hamilton.

Thanks! This looks good, took me a while to figure out the playlist and stream relationship but seems to work well.

This looks like the kind of thing I’m looking for, thanks! Am trying it out.

Thanks, nice app!

I find the VLC Android app a bit odd for audio only. There’s a lot of wasted space and I can’t see the name or metadata very clearly.

I agree it works, and I didn’t know about the shortcuts and will try that.

VLC is amazing, but it doesn’t feel like the best tool for this.

Thanks - I’m looking for a pad with no other features other than the USB output, but this does have that outlet.

Nice, thanks! That’s the sort of thing, especially the second one that has USB-C out as well. Neat.

Thanks. That means I need to move all data off the hosts on to, say, a NAS - then the NAS becomes the single point of failure. Can I operate a swarm without doing that but still duplicate everything from host 1 to host 2, so host 2 could take over relatively seamlessly (apart from local DNS and moving port forwarding to nginx on the remaining host)?

Thanks. Can I use my existing, single Docker to start a new swarm, or do I have to start from scratch?

Thanks. Could I achieve a simple 2-host solution with Kubernetes though?

So you have Docker itself on a single host (with parts) and all the containers in fault tolerant storage, and the most work you’d have to do in the event of host drive failure is to re-install the OS and Docker itself?

I’ve found Summit the best for me, personally, on Android. I’ve been able to configure it closest to how I used RIF which is what I wanted.

Cool project, thanks!

I want my server to host a desktop that I can use remotely. Not for managing the server itself; like you describe, I use common tools for managing it.

I just need a desktop for a while - sometimes I want to work on a machine that’s not the one I’m physically using. At the moment I simply have an old desktop running Windows; I VPN to home and RDP to to the machine which works very well, but it seems a waste to have a machine running for this purpose only. I could add the machine to the swarm if I could host a desktop in Docker but that’s not really the intent of Docker and doesn’t yield great results.

kasm looks good, thanks - it’s definitely in the area; desktop as a service. I want something I can suspect and go back to, not sure if I can do that on kasm or not but a good tip, I’ll check it out.

This is not to manage or work on the server, I use terminal and web-based UIs for all of that.

This to host a desktop I can use remotely. Sometimes using my local desktop isn’t what I want to do; I might be running a lower power machine, or want to do something I can’t on the machine I’m actually using. Or I might want to use a remote Linux desktop from a Windows machine. Sometimes the other way around.

Yes, that’s it!
