  • Valve announces three new products: the Steam Frame, Steam Machine and Steam Controller

    Jump

  • So uh, ahem.

    Yes.

    Valve can indeed count to three.

    No, the Steam Controller doesn't fully count. This is 2.5 at best.

    And see how the Steam Frame only has two screens and not three?

    Jump

  • No, they could compile Steam for native ARM and launch the x86 games via FEX from within.

    Remains to be seen which way they go, but I see no big reason why they would not do that.

  • Looks pretty promising and no huge surprises. Will be interesting to see the price points of each.

  • What budget friendly GPU for local AI workloads should I aim for?

    Jump

  • Recent models run surprisignly well on CPUs if you have sufficient regular RAM. You can also use a low VRAM GPU and offload parts to the CPU. If you are just starting out and want to play around I would try that first. 64gb system RAM is a good amount for that.

  • My Dream of a Home Router / Server

    Jump

  • There have been such attempts, like Nextbox for example. But afaik they have been all commercial failures, IMHO because basically anyone that cares enough about this stuff can build their own for a much lower price, and those that don't...

  • Looking for lemmy hosting service recommendations

    Jump

  • It's worth a try asking your current members in a local sticky-post. Just make sure you do a realistic estimation on how often you might not be available so that they know how involved it might become.

    Otherwise the people over at db0 are trialing an "armada" concept of sharing admin burdens between instances. So that is also something you might want to consider.

  • Looking for lemmy hosting service recommendations

    Jump

  • Finding a fully managed Lemmy server for a similar low price seems unlikely (and K&H have probably under-priced this).

    I think it would be more worthwhile to find some additional admins to share the burden and move to some reasonably priced VPS.

  • I keep waffling on Proxmox. Sell me. For or against.

    Jump

  • With libvirt it is fairly easy yes. And you can also install a standalone web-gui like Cockpit or use the desktop app virt-manager over ssh to do it.

  • I keep waffling on Proxmox. Sell me. For or against.

    Jump

  • Proxmox adds a lot of complexity and a nice GUI. If you are fine with using the terminal, there is really not much benefit from Proxmox and the potential issues from the added complexity are IMHO not worth it. I am not a Proxmox expert though, so take this advise with a grain of salt 😅

  • Gitea 1.25.0 | 3D file previews, improved archive downloads, enhanced authentication, and more security, API and workflow upgrades like automatic repo forking and email notifications for actions

    Jump

  • The federation is mainly about issues / bug reports (the discussions and comments) and being able to make cross instance pull-requests and so on. So yes, it is mostly about communication.

  • Admins: Set up Anubis ASAP!

    Jump

  • Those work fine with Anubis.

    Anubis is fairly stupid in reality. It only checks the request at all if it looks like a regular browser (and thus catches the scrapers that pretend to be regular browsers to hide in normal traffic). If you use an RSS reader for example that doesn't hide the fact that it is a RSS reader, then Anubis will send it right through.

  • Admins: Set up Anubis ASAP!

    Jump

  • They just released a big new version.

    We have been running it since a year or so, but lately there seem to be some scrapers that get around it, probably by using a 3rd party webfrontend and thus accessing the API endpoint. But still better than nothing I guess.

  • Concerned about claiming warranty for homelab with Linux

    Jump

  • Usually companies accept that you remove storage mediums before sending it in, as those might contain private data. And if that is ok, then there is no way for them to know that you installed Linux on those.

  • btrfs offsite backup

    Jump

  • Hmm, good question. I don't have a setup for that either, but I don't think there is a built in function for that.

    Your best bet is probably to find some tool that notifies you if new files get created in a directory, as AFAIK new snapshots are only created if they were successfully transferred.

  • Planning to selfhost images and calendar in addition to HTTP(S)

    Jump

  • Nextcloud is overkill for what you want.

    If all you need is a shared calendar and a simple way to upload images, then this is a good option: https://github.com/tchapi/davis

    Reducing Homelab Laptop energy consumption

    Jump

  • Wifi is often a module in older laptops, and you could unplug that.

    Otherwise, 10W is quite good for older hardware, I doubt you will get much below that.

  • Its a solar powered phone webserver! Made from a pixel 6a, solar panel, and hopes/dreams.

    Jump

  • Nice work. But the phone should be able to host quite a bit more, as it is actually quite fast.

  • Removed

    Which operating system should I choose?

    Jump

  • Debian is fine and you can follow many tutorials (Ubuntu tutorials also usually work as the difference isn't big).
