Do you own an action cam and does it work with Linux?
I have a DJI Action 3. It works with no issues on (Arch) Linux.
What totally rad sport/hobby do you use it for?
I mount it to my helmet while I'm out riding my motorcycle on the streets as sort of a dashcam.
Are you able to update the firmware over Linux or from he device itself? (I have windows for emergencies, but prefer not to use it.
The one thing I hate about the Action 3 is that it requires a mobile app to do firmware updates. Just to start using it requires registration on their DJI Mimo app which is terrible.
How does the device mount and have you had issues with file transfers?
The device lets you choose if it is as a webcam or storage for mounting when turned on if it is plugged in through USB.
Is there any special software that helps you use your device, for example “piper” can help me configure fancy mice.
The Action 3 doesn't have anything special, but a search on the AUR shows there are some for GoPros.
Can you use your device as a webcam?
Answered above.
- ~$20/year domain name
- €12/year Tutanota mail
- ~$idk yet/year energy costs of a self-hosted server (an old laptop lying around the house) which handles:
- Backup solution
- File hosting
- Wireguard VPN Tunnel
- Other free and open-source services which allow me to own my data locally.
- Sometimes €5 Mullvad VPN for if I'm traveling internationally. Otherwise Tor or my home VPN would suffice.
I'm not sure if I am I having deja vu, but didn't someone make this exact post two weeks ago or so?
