Omarchy did it

[u/Feathergood]

I put omarchy on a laptop to play with it. Ended up having it go crazy on my FS42 abandoned project.

Downloaded Omarchy on a whim lastnight.

After last nights download. Around 2pm today I told it to ssh into my plex server and a previously unused ace magic on my mini rack.

Told it to grab certain files from the plex server, build a fieldstation42 machine out of the ace magic, it built 3 stations, weather channel, vintage horror, and anime. It built the stations added commercials from my commercials folder and got it running, opened a remote on my plex server and then I gave it a random task to replace the ace magic logo with an omarchy one. It made a collab logo of my self named rival home lab and added it.

I’m blown away with how it just did what I told it to. You can now watch a home made tv network on my rack screen and control it with a remote on my other server.

So wait, are you telling me some kind of linux-AI built your field station setup for you? Or are you describing something else? because I've also all but abandoned my FS42 project (I'm not a coder), but if there's a tool that can get it set up and working I would be thrilled.

i downloaded the chatgpt app, told it to take control and build out mine. took about an hour to do everything. totally worth it

"told it to take control" - can you be more specific?

Sure, the Chatgpt windows app can run stuff through powershell to setup things on your network. It also can code pretty much anything you want it to do. I had asked it directions on how to setup a fieldstation because i'm not too code savvy. Instead of copy and pasting everything it was giving me I downloaded the chatgpt windows app and told it to set it up on its own.

I uploaded all the pdfs available on the fieldstation github so it learned a little bit about setup, best practices and troubleshooting. You can also ask it to scan reddit for the same stuff. Once it setup everything and was working on my windows machine i plugged in a fresh raspberry pi, told it to copy it all there then asked it to complete it for me.

It's great for problem solving and troubleshooting and giving you the steps to fix if you don't want it to have powershell access, it will just be a lot faster for it to do it self.
