  • i play the coop/ai games for this reason lmao

  • Upcoming MMO 'BitCraft Online' will be open source

    Jump

  • I hope we see a blossoming of high quality open source games. Beyond all Reason is looking towards a Steam release within the year or so and it's really impressive how much love can be put into a game that is run almost entirely by donations!

  • I'm going to talk to my local Repair Cafe about switching people over to Linux because of W10 EOL. Is there anything I should mention so they take it on board?

  • It looks like a very basic screening tool to block suspicious file extensions from being uploaded/downloaded. I wouldn't read (pun intended) into it too much, but it does mean you might have to work around it via sending epubs as zips or something. I doubt they bother scanning the contents of archives.

  • in terms of the fight against AI slop this is terrible news. in the fight to access information media freely forever this is almost... good news?

  • NAS Power Consumption

    Jump

  • I'm probably in a similar boat thanks to 4x NAS drives (in 2x mirror vdevs so essentially half as power efficient too). I wonder if using an SSD or two for things like caches would help with power draw since you could defer disk usage for longer by relying on a more efficient cache.

    SnapRAID is also an option. One benefit is that multiple disks don't need to be spinning at once to access data. Downside is that your parity isn't calculated in real time so less data redundancy.

  • Interviews as seen by HR and the candidate

    Jump

  • Yeah they really like to act like they're giving away £50k on a whim and not paying someone for their labour.

  • Made a big(?) mistake with mv /*/*/* ./

    Jump

  • I'd probably do a clean install (eventually) even if it looked like stuff works for now.

    I know the pain, though. did rm -rf in the wrong directory and wiped half my drive in seconds. Good times.

  • ISPs seem designed to funnel people to capitalist cloud services

    Jump

  • It's a pain but also it's no surprise that DNS and ipv6 are premium when ipv4 and dynamic IP works so well for 99% of us. Even if you wanna host something publicly there are totally free services and software tools to cover most if not all caveats of not using ipv6 (for now).

    I have selfhosted for years and only paid for a domain name recently.

  • Is that bad?

  • how to set up a remote managed node for mom

    Jump

  • Yeah even if you're someone who is super concerned about Jellyfin's API safety, it'll likely be less maintenance setting them up on tailscale than duplicating the streaming hardware. But that's assuming OP's family are as tech illiterate as mine

  • First time software set up help

    Jump

  • I have two 4TB in Raid 10 (ZFS Mirror) and two 8TB as the same. All in TrueNAS Scale.

    TrueNAS is pretty good for a basic setup imo!

  • Does Windows virtual machine crash due to low RAM?

    Jump

  • I would consider creating a swapfile if you have an SSD. There should be countless tutorials for doing it on Ubuntu.

    It might mean your windows or Ubuntu install gets sluggish, but even 32GB (less than 10% of a typical storage drive!) of spare swap space can let your active and memory-hogging processes breathe instead of invoking the SystemD-OOM killer. Also, it's essentially free! You'll benefit from more RAM though.

    For what it's worth, I think Ubuntu is also fairly aggressive with memory management. I remember complaints that it was a little too hasty to kill user processes under memory-limited scenarios. not sure if that was addressed

  • What are the minimum or recommended requirements for a personal home server?

    Jump

  • A computer. Seriously that's it. Of course depends on your use case (media servers usually need more than a web host for example)

  • Yup. I got our QA guy to help debug it and he was like "maybe just dont upgrade the dodgy dependency and delete your cache" lmfao yup fixed it
