Trump isn’t the representative of the US? That’s great news but it’s not aligned with reality

I thought self hosting was about learning networking basics like DNS and setting up let’s encrypt.

So much whining in here about the most simple stuff being too complex.

Basically that. I don’t do it much anymore, but it used to be helpful.

Wow, getright! That’s a throwback. I used that in the 90s.

On linux I use aria2c for similar tasks. It can resume http downloads, as well as split them up into multiple threads for faster downloading.

It’s cli-based and powerful (therefore perhaps a bit confusing at first), but there are UIs for it as well for a more get-rightty experience.

I think jdownloader also has some application here, though it’s mostly for getting things from those ad-filled file hosting sites frequently used by those on the high seas

In a moment of weakness and angry clients I once paid uce.

Shortly thereafter my credit card got stolen. That is the one time in my life that has ever happened. It was my business card which rarely get used.

Coincidence? Up to the reader.

Uhm actually the k6-2 took EDO or SDRAM. You won’t get it running with DDR.

I thought illiterate user friendliness was plex’s number 1 feature? That’s what half the comments in here are saying.

Jellyfin or Plex, needs to be done if you want remote connections without a VPN

This is also true about Plex which must also be exposed to the internet

How’d your grandpa get a multi-decade hoard of diesel in the 70s?

How old is OP? This is a pretty shitty suggestion if they are 12

Plus they both play the game. It’s not like a little bribery or murder would weigh on their collective minds

They are not requesting for info on running their own SMTP service that interacts with the greater internet.

Though even if they were, the difficulty is overstated. I’ve run my own for years.

Small ups systems use sealed lead acid so venting isn’t a concern

Complete nonsense. Enterprise drives are better for reliability if you plan on a ton of writes, but ZFS absolutely does not require them in any way.

Next you’ll say it needs ECC RAM

And if you dont have ECC zfs just might save your bacon when a more basic fs would allow corruption

It’s not hard on Debian

Apparently that good sound is due to extensive software processing. The asahi devs really want to make a good impression, so they’re spending a lot of time tweaking their sound processing to try to match or beat the MacOS quality before release. Which is both good and annoying. I appreciate the attention to detail, but it would be nice to have any speaker support when I just need to hear something quickly.

The graphics drivers are still in active development, but they have OpenGL3.1 support. Vulkan is under development.

I haven’t tried games, but have seen some posts where users have them working. I don’t think many games are compiled for arm yet though. The graphics dev did a youtube stream back in march where she plays steam games using FEX-Emu. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJSfFzsU75g

They also said it was mandatory for all the students and teachers to use the stupid 2FA Microsoft app on our phone, but I’ve been using Keepass on desktop without problems (and even shown it to some students).

Yeah if they’re just using the MS app for OTP generation, there’s no reason to use that specific application. Keepass is perfectly fine.

Asahi is pretty great. Only issue for me personally is the lack of speaker support. Audio works fine through headphone jack or bluetooth though.
