Been having a frustrating but rewarding time setting up my first server with some advice from you all. Learned a lot and feel like I’m almost there with a lot of it. One thing I’ve really been struggling with is public indexers on Prowlarr. In the UK I can only access them behind a VPN but Prowlarr can’t access the rest of...
Apologies if this doesn’t fit here, not sure where else to post something like this on lemmy...
I am currently expanding my Homelab setup, and want to buy a 10TB drive, for media storage. It’s a Seagate Ironwolf disk, so perfect for the job. But, it’s second hand. It was originally bought in 2019, but stopped being used after 2022. Only used for static storage, it’s been booted less than 50 times. I can get it for...
Non-essential crypto news covers crypto advertisement, insignificant news that does not affect legit users like XMR/ETH/BTC holders or darknet users, posts relating to garbage like Brave browser and its coin, and so on. Due to the multiple kinds of crypto posts that pop up, this rule will be applied subjectively on a...
Some news that would be completely mundane today but scary or shocking in the past.
On a small form factor PC with an i5-9500, Debian 12, 6.2.16 kernel, running Proxmox, powertop shows the following idle stats:...
I know this sounds like more of a “how do I use computes” question than a legitimate selfhosting question, but I think it fits here. My LibreX instance is hosted and appears to be fully functional, but when I try to add it to my browser it reports its url as 127.0.0.1:8080 instead of the actual address. I tried to get it to...
Now that Bandcamp has had huge layoffs, what about an opensource, Fediverse-friendly replacement? What can a FOSS product bring to the community and do better than Bandcamp?...
I’m looking to pirate Gibson’s Learn and Master Guitar. Any idea where to look for this? My usual routes aren’t being fruitful.
I intend to share with my friends (or have my replays stored somewhere easily accessible) but I refuse to use Youtube and I can’t self-host a Peertube instance just for this purpose at the moment....
I want to use IRC/SSH at school but both seems to be blocked. I assume they blocked all ports outside of 80 and 8080. Is there anyway to get around this? Maybe a proxy? How would I set this up?
I pulled out my Hario Switch today and realized I’ve only really experimented with Tetsu Kasuya’s “God Recipe” (pasted below for those interested). Overall I’ve found the cups to be smooth and sweet. I don’t love the minor fuss of the temp drop, but it’s an interesting approach....
All over Twitch, about half the streamers I usually watch playing turn-based strategy games are all suddenly playing the same new game. I watched a few streams, and it looked interesting. Normally, I never buy games when they just come out because I have such a backlog and can wait for a sale, but I figured if everyone...
Just watched the Boy Boy video on George Bush’s Masterclass, and they made me think about which U.S. President was actually worse.
Preferably something that has little to no preparation required.
seeing its recent surge in popularity it seems like a lot of people found out about the whole genre of quake-like games!!! and the level design is absolutely the most thought out ive seen in years
Dust is a rewrite of du (in rust obviously) that visualizes your directory tree and what percentage each file takes up. But it only prints as many files fit in your terminal height, so you see only the largest files. It’s been a better experience that du, which isn’t always easy to navigate to find big files (or atleast...
There are games that we cannot play on Linux because of anticheat, which detects wine/proton translation....
I’m writing this as someone who has mostly lived in the US and Canada. Personally, I find the whole “lying to children about Christmas” thing just a bit weird (no judgment on those who enjoy this aspect of the holiday). But because it’s completely normalized in our culture, this is something many people have to deal...
Whatcha all been playing?...
