What's your experiences with Debian and Rocky as a homeserver OS? (external-content.duckduckgo.com)

Hello there lemmings! Finally I have taken up the courage to buy a low power mini PC to be my first homeserver (Ryzen 5500U, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD, already have 6TB external HDD tho). I have basically no tangible experience with Debian or Fedora-based system, since my daily drivers are Arch-based (although I’m planning to switch...

haui_lemmy,

Hi! Here’s you, like 2 yrs down the road. I have no opinion on the server OS since I started with ubuntu server but my projects went a similar direction.

One major thing I’d recommend is thinking about security: web facing servers with your private data on it are a very bad idea. So unless you mean a website for personal use, I’d split the “home” server and the “personal web server” or vps in two so you have the stuff you want others to use unsupervised and the stuff you use at home and from the road.

Another thought is bandwith, unless you have insane upload, I’d stay away from web facing stuff like websites, game servers and social media instances. This works on a cheap vps with gigabit bandwith up and down. Way less hassle and less security issues.

haui_lemmy,

Probably an idea as old as time but wouldn’t it work to stream adobe products from a terminal server?

Let me elaborate: two major fronts I’ve seen are “I type data and write emails” types that can easily work on the terminal and “I make heave graphics and video editing and cant work without 4090 gpu” which we usually just leave to it.

Obviously there are more nuances but most should be doable in terminal unless no internet or very bad internet. I’m somewhat hopeful this would work. Everyone has a very efficient linux pc/laptop and the heavy lifting is done by windows vms with adobe suite running on shared A100s. And while they are not used they could be rented out for extra cost efficiency.

haui_lemmy,

On another note: why do we have open standards like jpeg and png but proprietary shit like docx?

haui_lemmy, (edited )

Imo, yes.

  • only run containers from trusted sources (btw. google, ms, apple have proven they cant be trusted either)
  • run apps without dependency hell
  • even if someone breaks in, they’re not in your system but in a container
  • have everything web facing separate from the rest
  • get per app resource statistics

Those are just what was in my head. Probably more to be said.

haui_lemmy,

Original facebook/whatsapp look at me I’m so original! and people upvote it. Do we have another bot problem now?

haui_lemmy,

Thats neat. I was searching for something like this. Goes on my list.

haui_lemmy,

Neat explanation. Thanks. I also modded some communities over there.

It’s not only reddit i‘m seeing this happen on. At work, on discord, people with questionable morals start to get into power and take over from those who built stuff up.

It’s like we have an epidemic of the dark triad. Being manipulative, impulsive and brutal seems to get more and more normalized through our economic system.

haui_lemmy,

Its disgusting, really. It‘s also part of our daily lives. Having a great idea or great skills isnt enough, unless they are part of the dark triad. People with those skills will always eat your lunch - for free.

We need to pathologize these behaviors instead of normalizing them.

haui_lemmy,

And take all things valuable with them.

haui_lemmy,

I think a psychopathy index for the fortune 500 would be in order. They get points for displaying features of the dark triad and get publicly shamed for it. Anyone interested in making this?

haui_lemmy,

Nightmare fuel fr.

haui_lemmy,

You‘re a legend.

haui_lemmy,

Okay, that is brutal. Thanks for sharing. Today I learned.

haui_lemmy,

A quick google showed completely opposite results. Can you name a source?

haui_lemmy,

This is actually a very good take imo. Thanks for sharing this.

haui_lemmy,

I think the important message is „informed decision“ instead of „indoctrination“.

You can decide to do something against your immediate self interest to get a greater benefit later.

But the way we were brought up was „do what you‘re told“ which leads to exploitation and endless suffering to provide for the exploiters.

haui_lemmy,

Not even that far fetched. A lot of inventors are thought to have been autistic.

haui_lemmy,

You‘re new here, right? Keep that positive attitude as long as you can.

haui_lemmy,

Only way I‘m using discord anymore is through my matrix bridge. Works great.

haui_lemmy,

You‘re not wrong. I left firefox since you can’t say anything critical about firefox without being downvoted to hell even if it is just trying to improve it.

Wonderful how the people spoiling irl groups also spoil online groups.

haui_lemmy,

The worst development of all has been the „buy but dont own“ model. If I buy anything, I own it. It’s symple, reliable and permanent. Obviously, if I own something, I can sell it. If someone owns a video game, music or a movie, they can sell it. This perverted idea of being able to tell a customer what to do with their bought stuff needs to go.

haui_lemmy,

Exactly. Especially getting rid of this ridiculous buy but now own idea.

haui_lemmy,

Likely not in the same country as the person you asked but where I live, being homeless means you don’t want to go to the government and ask for housing/money. You get both. Those people who run around crowded areas do that as occupation, not because they’re starving.

haui_lemmy,

Just started and instance 3 days ago. :)

haui_lemmy,

I hope they get annihilated by that lawsuit.
