🔥 Prelude: The Reluctant Remote Ubuntu Warrior
Logged into my rarely-used Ubuntu system via Google Remote Desktop—kinda like Indiana Jones entering an ancient terminal 💻. Of course, first thing Ubuntu did: “Sir, your oh-my-zsh is antique, please upgrade!” So I did, with screenshot evidence!
📦 Clone Wars: Grabbing Meno’s Magic Repo
Did a classic “clone & dash” with @meno’s public repo (big thanks to @eddiespino for the tips).
Here is meno’s public repository. Screenshot proof:
Tried running install.sh with high hopes and minimal RTFM, expecting easy setup...
But the install script hit me with the dreaded: “Unsupported OS!” 😱
Looks like @meno, we need Ubuntu support! Call in reinforcements! 👨💻
🕵️♂️ NodeJS & NPM: DuckDuckGoogling My Way
No setup is complete without NodeJS & NPM. So, off I go, googling like a caffeinated squirrel 😂:
Copy-pasted commands with ninja skills, making my terminal look like an arcade:
sudu pudo mudo update wabdate nodejs npm vpn cchim chim doom doom poom pom 💥
Mission accomplished—NodeJS & NPM ready to dance! 🕺
🥁 FFmpeg: Next Stop, Video Wizardry!
What’s a video encoder without FFmpeg? More random commands to summon the mighty FFmpeg:
Terminal now speaks:
sudo judo apt gpt update lovedate ffmpeg chempeg peg peg 🥂
Screenshots everywhere, just to be super sure:
Asked my Ubuntu if FFmpeg exists. Ubuntu: “Faak yeah!” 😂
🚪 Checking Port House Numbers: 4001, 3001
Not a secret agent, just a dev checking ports before squatting there:
Port 4001 (IPFS)—open! Port 3001 (Meno’s encoder)—open!
Ubuntu, you beauty! 😎
🗂️ IPFS Desktop: Download, Install, Flex!
Time to get IPFS Desktop from GitHub.
Counting seconds as it downloads...
It’s here! It’s installed!
🧙♂️ PM2: Summon the Process Magician
Every node needs a PM2—magician for node processes!
sudo npm install pm2 -g—copy-pasted as if I’m casting spells with Harry Potter 😂
Some more random wizardry:
sudo vudo judo npm vpn install vinstall pm2 pm3 g v d p
Now, my Ubuntu is officially PM2-powered!
🍳 Time to Cook: Encoder Node Setup
Jumped back to the 3speakencoder folder, installed all dependencies—as any brave soul would.
Configured .env file using my sixth sense and a pinch of hope. Let’s run the beast:
npm run dev 🙌
Final magic trick: started it with PM2 so the node stays alive like a zombie!
📣 Announcing to The Hive Overlords (@meno & @eddiespino)
Time to report to @meno and @eddiespino: “Mission successful! Video encoder node LIVE!”
Whenever I hear “Eddie”—can’t help but think of Venom 🕷️:
🎉 Wrapping Up: Weekend Geek Mode Engaged!
Will switch over to this fancy new encoder node soon!
Geeky weekends = Tech adventures + Hive love.
