I really like Stremio. It doesn’t notify you, but (with the right add-ons) there’s a huge catalogue that’s updated regularly. It includes even a calendar which displays the upcoming episodes of series you added to your library.
I have 4-5 nodes for miscellaneous projects hosted on cloudfanatic (previously servercheap). Cheap, good customer service, with servers all over the US. Good uptime. No international servers though.
The only reason I might, in the distant future, ever consider changing again is this project, which hopefully would be something between NixOS and Qubes. But that is far in the future and not even that certain.
I think some sort of p2p solution would be really cool. You could basically allocate a certain amount of storage on your server and images would be stored and grabbed by peers as needed. Something like BitTorrent where multiple peers have the same content to reduce load. Not sure if it already exists or is even practically possible.
Mint with Cinnamon is my daily driver on my desktop and laptop for almost 3 years now. I ran a company for a while using Linux and managed to find everything I needed for software to run administration. It was great. I still have a windows tablet for troubleshooting and equipment specific requests, but I always feel weird logging into it.
Radiant quests. You can never complete the game because of this, the quests are generic and repetitive and offer nothing but “stretch the playtime”.
That and mechanics like “rando dragon attacks in Skyrim” and “City is under attack” from Fallout 4. I quit F4 because I was on my way to a mission and got the "city under attack notification, and on my way to defend another city was under attack.
To yes-and this: procedural content in general. No Man’s Sky is a snore-fest for me, big, empty, meaningless. Missions in Elite Dangerous and X4 are similarly pretty boring, though the former is more fun the first time around. There has to feel like there’s some world-affecting point to what you’re doing. IMO
I found the procedurally-produced planets in No Man’s Sky to be stunningly beautiful. Then I would walk around on them and the similar-but-not-quite look of every part of the landscape would slowly drive me INSANE.
Arch on everything, including servers. It’s just so easy to install everything via the AUR & configure everything easily. Plus the wiki is amazing. Although it is a pain to setup sometimes
I use EndeavourOS with Hyprland on my laptop but I am considering trying VanillaOS (once they move to Debian base). On desktop I have Ubuntu 20.04 and EndeavourOS (both on Gnome)
Systems and software engineer here. I’m curious how the Lemmy project plans on scaling media uploads. It doesn’t seem feasible to host on an instance server. Even Reddit had a problem with media over the years and some subs to this day enforce offloading media to third party.
Just Postgres or Postgres + Pics? Could you give me the number for Postgres? I’m thinking in hosting my server but I have concerns abot scalability and costs in the future.
It depends on many things like the number of tables, the indexes, etc… but Postgres doesn’t work well above 1 TB. Anyway, it will take several years to reach that point. Someone will figure out a solution.
Thank you for the info. Do you have any link with the specs of your server, bandwidth, cpu/ram usage, statistics…? Anything that could help me to do the maths.
