this is penny change, in grand scheme of things, from american perspective. this has been strategic goal of american command for better part of last century, some rednecks yapping about muh taxes going abroad shouldn’t have influence on that
Yeah they also seem to not understand we only get paid back for lend lease and loans of Ukraine wins. For some reason they don’t understand how loans work.
I agree entirely with your point, although I’m not sure ‘taxation without representation’ should be the takeaway. I think expert knowledge can be weighted heavier than random voters, but ultimately, there does need to be general consent, otherwise ‘achieveing strategic goals’ can be used to justify some heinous shit!
it’s their take, not mine, made even weaker if you consider that deep red states are mostly federal money holes (with exception of texas). as it happens, there is general consent, it’s only loud minority
Usually just names/lyrics of my favorite songs
iPhone: ByeByeBaby
AirPods: You’re on your own, kid
Laptop: InnerMonologue
Except just for fun, I named my HomePod Cortana
Everything is running on a Synology NAS. Media lives on a 16TB raid array of HDD, and the containers themselves on a RAID 1 of two NVMe SSDs. This helps with spinning down the HDD when not in use and overall power consumption is very reasonable.
On the host:
Tailscale to connect remotely
Synology Photo as a great photo library
Then everything in Docker containers, deployed via compose stacks from Git and Portainer, very easy to update! Also using Watchtower to automatically updates containers that are using the “latest” tag.
arr stack. With notably Recyclarr that allows to sync from TrashGuides the recommended media quality profiles
Jellyfin
Miniflux for RSS. Recently switched from Feedly… it’s so much better. Allows full text extraction when the feed isn’t.
Calibre + Calibre Web for the interface, ebooks management
Home Assistant + Zigbee2mqtt for home automation
Nginx proxy manager to reverse proxy a handful of services (those with shared logins, e.g. Jellyfin…)
Paperless-Ngx for documents management
Change detection for websites monitoring (e.g. price changes…)
Flame for a simple “dashboard” with all these links
Late response but I got to the root of the issue. Lemmy (well, lemmy.world) want being cached by Quad9’s DNS servers.
I tested by using different DNS servers (OpenDNS) which worked fine, then permanently resolved it by installing unbound on my pihole and using that instead.
I run one main hypervisor with a bunch of different Ubuntu server VMs that I spin up as I mess with different things. I’m old-school so I am not a fan of cloud computing or even docker. Services I host that I use the most are NAS (samba), plex, pi-hole, dokuwiki (huge documentation nerd), and zoneminder which is a great open-source security cam software.
No one has mentioned it from what I can see but I highly recommend the courses provided by www.mooc.fi/en/. It’s the university of Helsinki and it’s completely free. They offer both Java and Python courses. I believe they have an introduction to programming course that is done in Python.
All of my servers are named after characters from the Dragon Ball universe.
Don’t recommend doing an ‘obscured’ naming scheme, hate having to refer to a spreadsheet to know what server does what because I tend to spin up a lot of random stuff. Highly recommend using functional names that are easy for your brain to remember, like an acronym for whatever service or types of services it’s running.
