It was annoying having to change that setting so I could shut down the phone and install GrapheneOS.

Whenever I ssh into it.

What’s crazy is that my small UPS consumes 20W at idle (fully charged; AC connected).

I got my server down to 40W too, and the UPS ate all the savings.

That’s amazing. I’ll have to take your word for it. I only have Firefox on my devices.

These stats are far less useful than last year.

Protip: It’s really in on the tools and trends page.

I use this at work. It’s actually quite good. Its suggestions aren’t the sort of thing you’d ignore.

It does slow the IDE on large projects though.

When you upgrade your desktop PC, plan for it to be the home server after that.

I got a rackmount case to transplant my old desktop montherboard into every 5 years. I also got a 4-port NIC so it can also be a router. My server is a 4th gen Core i5 and it’s still plenty of power for a home server.

If you’re a laptop guy, I’m not sure what you’d do. Maybe ask friends for their old desktops. The Win10 discontinuation next month would be a great opportunity to snap up some business PCs destined for landfill.

For Home Assistant, I think you either need Docker or a dedicated box. I kinda hate how there isn’t a .deb package for it like literally every other service on my server.

Oh, you have 10 random singles in the same directory? That must be an album all from the same artist!

I agree. Intel or AMD doesn’t matter too much on the CPU. There’s a massive difference between AMD and NVidia on the GPU front. I hear the gap is closing, but the Steam hardware survey shows nobody on Linux prefers NVidia.

And for the love of God do not print with anything but a Brother laser. Just don’t.

I did this a few months back.

Some things aren’t as great, but you get full control and your server idles way better on JellyFin.

The educational route I took was Hurricane Electric’s free IPv6 online course. It taught me a bunch of networking principles. When you finish the course (and get “sage” status), you get free lifetime DNS access. This includes dynamic DNS that automatically updates when your IP address changes.

Because of this, I can self-host on a basic residential plan without paying for any additional services.

I rock my Skechers, android phone, basic Casio watch, and drive my 2003 Suzuki.

I spend my money on stuff that works. Not stuff that’s marketed.

I sense marketing bullshit, and it’s such a strong turnoff for me.

Energy efficiency strongly correlates to datacentre costs.

I thought the idea of TS is that it strongly types everything so that the JS interpreter doesn’t waste all of its time trying to figure out the best way to store a variable in RAM.

Try jolting the nozzle toward the screen that insists upon your attention. You may find that LCD TFT panels are not as strong as steel.

Done! I’ve been selfhosting for over 20 years now.

The final release is a 700KB zip file containing a single .exe.

Sure, that’s bigger than the original “edit.com”, but it’s not the 90MB install you’d expect from MS.

Microsoft just released Edit a couple of days ago. At least it’s not bloated, and it’s cross-platform.

My current server is just my previous desktop PC hardware. $0 when you repurpose while upgrading your desktop.

It’s the “Plex Remote Watch Pass”. A new charge for something that used to be free. https://www.plex.tv/plans/
