Another Mac mini that I use for dev work that’s also running sonarr, radarr, bazarr, plex and Hoobs under MacOS
A Dell R170 running a number of VMs (windows and Linux) that host a couple of websites , and a load balancer on proxmox.
Things are a bit spread out where I sometimes just had to use the hardware I had to hand but it all works together somehow.
Edit: I’ve also just spun up a MediaWiki for me and my colleagues to use to store useful snippets of code etc. in a central place. Although I know my colleagues, they’ll use it once and then it’ll be abandoned :D
With Threshold I always was mildly impressed with how they made a point that evolution doesn’t necessarily mean that a species will become super advanced somehow. That they evolved “in-place” instead of over generations is still a pretty bonkers misunderstanding of evolution that they always fall for, but I guess watching them turn into lizards over the next several decades probably wouldn’t make the best TV lol
I would say that’s still a bad move. There is not “no risk”, as it could still put the owners of the Lemmy instance in danger. So be respectful to those who are hosting this instance and don’t link copyright infringement.
The nginx config provided in the Docker installation part contains everything needed for nginx. If you are installing lemmy directly on the machine you may need to use different upstreams.
I seem to be having a lot of lag at the moment, and my post was created twice so I’m just going to delete the other one and start from here…
So I have this set up per the instructions. My instance is on a Digital Ocean instance, and I’m using nginx on the host to point to localhost:1235, but that’s about all that conf file is doing. Is there something else I need to do?
Ok, just to understand what you did. You got an Digital Ocean droplet with Docker and used the instructions in the link I posted or different ones?
If you are using the instructions from my link nginx will also run in a docker container, which means that your upstream will not be on localhost, but rather the lemmy and lemmy-ui containers.
If you did install it locally then localhost:1235 could be correct.
I think this is where my lack of experience with Docker is showing.
I spun up a DO droplet and installed nginx, Docker CE, and Docker Compose. Then I went through the instructions on the page you linked to and it set it up just fine but when I went to my droplets IP address it wouldn’t connect. I had to add a config file that pointed traffic coming into the droplet on port 80 to redirect to the Docker container instead. Am I overcomplicating it?
No, you are right. If you are using the nginx container from the docker installation guide then you will also need to add port 80 atleast in order to see anything, as nginx will otherwise not listen on the port 80 of the droplet.
So looking at this again now, am I taking that whole block and adding it to the container’s nginx.conf? If so, does that mean I have to change what port it’s currently listening to (because there’s already a rule in the file for port 80)?
There’s a comment in that server rule that says “this is the port inside docker” and a comment immediately after that says “this is facing the public web”, which confuses me.
I love it, it’s a nice bit of kit, and the few gimmicks it has are useful: scheduled charging for better battery life, digital well being stuff to stop me being glued to my phone.
Battery would be a problem for a super power user, but lasts me all day with commuting, reading the web etc. Camera is not on a par with flagships but I rarely take pictures.
Prior to this I had a Huawei until the battery died on me. I upgrade when I have to, I hate consumer upgrade cycles.
I have zero android ecosystem products.
I’m Android/Linux all the way unless work force me to use a Mac, which happens periodically, as part of the great cycle of life.
Just for fun I asked gpt-4 what the most British thing is, I then asked it to make a prompt for midjourney. Here is the result. (Don’t question the alien hand)
Yeah it’s pretty great, really smooth. I guess that’s part of the experience. I’ve just been enjoying it, without realizing that it may be adding to the experience.
RedHat here in the late 90s, back when you could still find yourself writing a “modeline.”
Then Debian in the early 00s when apt was still a major discriminator. Finally, Ubuntu around 2008 just so I was running the same thing I was recommending to family members for ease of use. (At the time, Ubuntu sported the same ease of installation and hardware detection I’d found with Knoppix.)
Now on Xubuntu, but seriously eyeing a return to Debian.
RedHat in the mid-late 90s here too. It wasn’t a great time for the linux desktop haha. I think I used afterstep or windowmaker back then. RPM hell was bad and hosed my system enough that Debian was like a savior with apt-get. Never really looked back from debian based systems since.
I just came back from a long hiatus a month or so back, and also quit around the same time you did, so I feel your pain. This might not be 100% accurate, but this is how I see the various open world grinds from my own experience:
EARTH:
OSTRON: Obsolete for the most part, unless you really want a Zaw. Grinding this will give you baits to get fish that some later recipes need, but for the most part you’re here for parts for a modular melee weapon called a Zaw. These used to be top of the line, but now are just pretty good.
QUILLS: Mostly obsolete. Not sure how far along you are in the quests, but The War Within will net you a new equipment slot for a modular weapon called an Amp. The default amp is hilarious garbage, and makes certain quests paaaaaainful to complete. However, the first rank of the Quills will net you the parts to make an amp good enough to deal with end game content so build that ASAP. Beyond that first rank though, a later Syndicate will give you better amp parts.
VENUS:
SOLARIS UNITED: Gives you parts to make modular primary and secondary weapons called Kitguns, as well as modular Moa companions. Neither is top of the line anymore, but kitguns at least are still a solid A tier in endgame content. You also need to grind this to max to open up Vox Solaris, so might as well!
VOX SOLARIS: Better amp parts. Still haven’t started this grind yet myself, but that’s basically it.
DEIMOS:
ENTRATI: Gives you more Kitgun parts, infested companions, and some good endgame weapons. Vulpaphylas (Infested kavats) are currently the meta, as their special ability is to self resurrect infinitely. Also gives you access to the Helminth halfway through, which allows you grind up old warframes into upgrade materials. Hope you haven’t deleted too many to save slots! You’ll naturally also grind rep while grinding for your first Necromech, which you’ll need to unlock the last chunk of the game.
NECROLOID: Alternative necromech parts and guns. The default setup is really good, so I haven’t felt the need to grind this at all, but you do you.
DUVIRI: High end melee weapons, and Incarnon Adapters, which are upgrade packs for older, powercrept guns (Soma Prime, my beloved…). Incarnon-upgraded weapons are currently top tier, but to use them you need access to the final locked solar system zone, which is again locked behind having a Necromech.
[ZONE NAME REDACTED FOR SPOILERS]
HOLDFASTS: Top tier weapons and arcanes. All but mandatory once you have access, but very quick to grind.
While the Ostron standing seems mostly obsolete, you’re going to need Rank 4 gem blueprints from Old Man Suumbaat to build amps and other things (Rank 5, he’s basically just cosmetics.)
