I call it IBS Preparedness

Well SOMEBODY shouldn’t have put it there

Thats so fucking funny, this came up a few days ago for me after I came across this:

+1 for Shelly as I have or any other drop in relay, all the wiring you’ll need to do is behind the switchplate, you can decouple the input switch from the relay output and have HA trigger either output based on some input conditions. My fav config is having two flips of the switch perform a different action

Well im glad I didn’t buy a license, I imagine license checking is the hardest part of maintaining the Linux branch. Oh well

It’s the left who is dividing us by having the R’s run a convicted felon! I don’t understand how anybody doesn’t understand this !!

Alternatively, use a closed ecosystem susceptible to data rot and loss.

Would you want art to be unfindable because scraping for AI image generation happens? It’s a solution looking for problems.

+1 for Proxmox, has been a fun experience as there are plenty of resources and helper scripts to get you off the ground, jellyfin was the first thing I migrated from my PC, hardware encoding may give you a bit of a tussle but nothing unsolveable. Also note Proxmox is Debian under the hood, so you may find it easy to work with. I looked into unraid, it seems great if all you’re doing for the most part is storage, if you want Linux containers and virtual machines, proxmox js your bet.

I got a small 4 bay 2U server from a friend on the cheap, 1000$ should get you relatively nice new or slightly older used hardware. Even just a PC with a nice amount of drive bays will get you started. And drives are cheap, a raid 1 setup was one of the things I did.

In the end I’ll likely get a separate NAS rack server just to segregate functions, but as of now I simply have a Proxmox LXC mounted to my NAS drives and runs samba to expose them.

Tailscale is a nice set and forget solution for VPN access, I ended up going the route of getting an SSL certified domain and beefing up my firewall a bit. The bit I’ve messed with it it certainly has a learning curve greater than openvpn, but is much more hardened and versatile.

As for pihole, I’ve found AdGuard Home to be just about a suitable replacement, and can be installed along openwrt, though I have a bit of an unconventional router with 512MB of RAM so YMMV

Gentoo is anti-consumer because I’m still waiting for it to compile

Mint is anti consumer because you have to enable snap

Im not sure but both my old highschools completely banned having even a picture of a rainbow and numerous books, so I’d gladly swap with whatever reality this guy’s from

Instead of complaining about the obvious disconnect between metrics and real world, often regional CoL, etc etc (oh and cost of medical care). Here’s a simple solution:

Raise federal minimum wage, it’s been a good decade and a bit since it went up from $5/h, the dollar has only inflated oh about 45% since 2009

No honestly, he should join the debates. I’ll start getting a bingo card ready

Hey! Don’t mean to butt in, but what’s some pointers? I currently have resend set up for my personal site, but would like a fully fledged email server

I got a 1U 32GB and a 4 core Xeon for 20$, you just have to make at least 3 more posts

Was like reddit karma keeping track of up/downvotes, could tell an obvious troll from a mile away

Gramps needed his excel icon - on the monitor I might add - or else. Debloat and activation scripts got him his windows 7 and office 2007 experience back, he was very appreciative of my “hack”, merely for the same experience he paid for back some 15 years.

He doesn’t know what a “Linux” is, but I am greatful that people are still invested enough to make utilities to return back to a more user centric experience in windows - even if I certainly don’t care to go back

Makes me miss lemmy karma

“Notmilk”? I mean its not milk, and kinda rolls like nut milk

No thats okay, the charcoal adds to the texture
