My problem isn’t the hardware, it’s that the place I’m moving to will have a bad internet connection. My current homeserver has stuff like a CI (currently being tested), a builder for software (compiling rust, C/C++, go, and whatever else), immich, nextcloud with an extension to download from youtube and other sources (basically to circumvent geoblocking of multiple friends and family), and it could be expanded to host other services e.g a seedbox. All that stuff needs good hardware and a good connection.
My problem is that I’m moving in the not so far future and I don’t know where to put my server. Physical security is important and if someone gets into my house, takes the computer and leaves, it’ll be worthless due to encryption. But if it’s in somebody’s datacenter (co-location or whatever), they could be forced to monitor my traffic, tamper with my system, and I’d have to entrust the key to somebody in order to boot the system and decrypt the drives should it restart for an update or for any other reason.
I’m considering asking a friend to host the homeserver and reimburse them for a better internet connection (fiber) + electricity costs. But I’m not sure they’d be up for it.
How would you solve the problem?
Hey! Another nixos user 😁 What are you using for your VPS? nixos-infect? nixos-everywhere?
As for mini PCs, a friend bought one from Minis Forum and quite likes it. But if you want to support the opensource ecosystem, there are tuxedo computers and slimbook. There’s also starlabs byte.
Take your pick :)
Oh, my comment was more that compiling C/C++ apps on any platform is shit. Windows may be the worst to compile on, but Linux is only marginally better.
Rust is amazing though.
“It’s so easy to compile C/C++ apps on Linux”
“Just run make install”
“If it doesn’t work, fuck you, it worked on my machine”

Yep! I’ve tried and it doest work. Either it’s because I have mixed unit types (service mount service service and another case is service path service serviceX2), or I really just forgot something.
At this point I have to build a simplified version of my services with echo’s and shit to be able to debug, because otherwise I’ll just drop it and return whenever I find the motivation again.
I am days into trying to figure out how why systemd just won’t start services after another service has successfully been run. I want service A to run, finish successfully and then service B to start. I’ve tries requires, wants, after and their reverse. I’ve tries paths with PathChanged and other things I’ve forgotten now. Either service B won’t start because it’s not WantedBy some target, but if I add that then it simply ignores the After, Requires, and Wants, and PathChanged to start anyway when the target has started.
It’s maddening. Why are there so many conditions that express nearly the same thing but do so in such subtle ways that only testing will expose what it truly is, and sometimes not even that helps because obviously something else is missing but it won’t say what. And AI of course has no fucking clue how to help.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Unfortunately the opensource community is heavily disorganised. We don’t have a group to represent us, market opensource, push for its use in public office, fight for compensation for maintainers and developers, and so much more. A concerted effort could possibly accelerate adoption and make it possible for more people to earn a living from opensource, not just the lucky few who can do it in their free time and transition to a paid/funded position.
Why do you believe windows is required to stay connected with the world? Are there specific applications you believe can only run on windows or for which you believe there is no alternative?
Just in case, you can have a look at https://alternativeto.net/ , input your windows application and find opensource alternatives that run on Linux. You can make a list and double check with the community here.
I ask because there might be a possibility for you to go full Linux. It depends on your requirements.
Everything has it’s uses.
makeis maybe good at incremental builds but is (an)used as a task runner which requires the use of “PHONY” in many places, it has about 6 different ways to declare and use variables all with different gotchas, generally has a convoluted syntax, it doesn’t support different interpreters per task, and lacks a bunch more features. Just explore the feature list and examples thatjusthas.It’s simply outdated and mostly lives by the power of defaults and graybeards insisting on its use. Therecs no surprise that things like cmake, nmake, and other tools sprung up to replace it.
I ripped the “met life” shirt off of the snoopy plush and trashed everything else.
Trashing was maybe unnecessary? Could’ve donated it to those in need.
However I do support the sentiment. Fuck Microsoft. Hopefully you’ll be able to find employment that is more fulfilling and less genocidal. (This is not a stab at you, I get working for an evil company and wanting to get away from it).
All of those look goofy af compared to just.
Can someone explain this meme? What’s going on with excel?
It’s not the size of the PR that counts!
How does this compare to Notion? Can it be used as a knowledge management system? I ask because I see highlights and notes.
Sorry @jonny@neuromatch.social. I was being a hypocrite and an ass. I’ll try and be more constructive with my feedback.
Good luck on the project! I hope that it will be a success!
I’d say the problem is education. Porn is only an issue because people do not get proper sex ed. The reaction to seeing a dick sucked in front of a child shouldn’t be shame, disgust, or terror but allowing the inquisitive mind to ask what is happening.
Sex is a completely normal occurrence that is the reason we are all here. There shouldn’t be any shame or stigma in explaining to a child (or any person for that matter) what it is, what it involves, why it is done, how to safely do it, what consent is, why it is stigmatised.
Want to protect children? Educate them.
