  • You jest but the pain is real. Developing a Windows only software for work in a Windows only environment.

  • I had a Raspberry Pi once and wanted to move file from the current folder to some other folder. I typed mv /* /path/to/folder/ and move everything in the root directory and down to this other folder.

    EDIT: Meant to say that snapshots are cheap backups. I ended up reinstalled the OS.

    Correct would have been dot slash: mv ./* /path/to/folder/

  • Which software do you use for backups?

  • Install Virtualbox (or some software to handle virtual machines).Install Debian (or some other OS of your choice, I won't judge if you prefer Windows).Update your OS (apt update && apt upgrade -y on Debian). Take a snapshot of your VM's current state after updating. Saves a lot of time if you mess up or want a clean slate.

    Now you decide on what you want. Do you want to install n8n or Node-RED for automation? Do you want to use Immich for pictures? Paperless to save papers in a digital format? Audiobookshelf to listen on your books or podcasts? Jellyfin to stream your media? Set up a Minecraft or Factorio server?

    Once you have decided on what you want to do, try to do it in your virtual machine.Once you understand how to set it up and configure it to your liking, decide on how you want to host it. I took an office computer, added a few HDDs and replaced the case with a bigger one and it's now my home server, but any old laptop will do. Just make sure to take backups.

    I used to have a Dell R710 and a virtual machine for each service I hosted, but I have moved to docker because it as simple as taking the often provided compose file, tweaking it a bit (where to store data etc) and running it with docker compose up -d.

  • The Nazis brutally oppressed the working class

    Can you please elaborate on this? I thought the Nazi party was great for the German economy, taking the country out of a great recession. Nothing I learned hinted at the german population having it bad, the "only" problem was killing on an industrial scale.

    EDIT: Some searching and reading on the internet indicates that

    1. Brutally oppressed is (in my opinion) a bit strongly worded. I would seem they wanted Totalitarianism.
    2. To actually give a proper answer to my question would require a format other than a this.
    3. #2 would also require a lot of background to give context and nuance.
  • I second LG. Probably even if I don't connect it to the internet. OLED + webOS + magic remote. If it was super important to not require internet etc, still LG but JB it.

  • Which language can nil an int?

  • First time I have to use it, the spelling really confused me. Wrote unmount and didn’t understand why it didn’t work.

  • NixOS is a declarative OS. Instead of installing a software, you specify it in a config (.nix file) and rebuild. Same goes mounts, services etc.

    I use it because it is great to be able to revert if I do something stupid.

  • Same here. I remember playing minecraft and wanted to install some mod on my server. There were instructions and I followed them. Problems? Search the web.

    I also tried to run TeamSpeak on an RPI at some point, and that was when I learned about ARM.

  • You are welcome.

  • I used to support a few companies hosting their own email servers (I supported the mail server software). I will never host my own email, not unless I have a gateway between me and world, someone to configure the DNS and all that.

    1. Figure out what you want to host.
    2. Read up on what is required to host that.
    3. Understand what is required to host that.
    4. Skip step 3, wing it and search the internet as you go.
  • I second Debian because of the amount of information out there.

  • Since multiple people will be using the same IP when using a VPN. If one person is a bad actor and causes the IP to be blacklisted, it will affect you too.

  • Use mcfly and it will be even better.

  • From their README. Have you looked at their forum?

    We cannot provide direct technical support. Get help running this software in your own environment in our unofficial community forum.

    This thread has a link to someone's Dockerfile for their development.

    Caddy reverse proxy

    Jump
  • Here is two enteries from my Caddyfile:

     
        
    ip.domain.tld:80 {
            respond "{client_ip}" 200
    }
    
    
    git.domain.tld {
            reverse_proxy forgejo:3000
    }
    
      

    This is all I need and Caddy will handle the rest. I have created a network with podman/docker that I add to any container that I need to reverse proxy to.

  • No Man's Sky. So much of what was promised was missing, the world just felt empty. It's a much better game now.

    Why is everyone using Tailscale? Edit: I meant Traefik
