I'm not the one acting like a martyr because not buying my 4K 43 inch 120hz monitor from Amazon would mean I'd starve and die from having to eat rice for a week lmao.
$50 is the difference between having to eat only rice for a week, but you absolutely NEED a gaming monitor thats 32-43 inches with 4K resolution and 120hz refresh rate?
The only person your justifying your continued use of amazon to is yourself, and you're doing a poor job.
Alex Jones, American radio host, conspiracy theorist and executive producer of Loose Change, stated that film segments of Zeitgeist are taken directly from his documentary Terrorstorm, and that he supports "90 percent" of the film.
I've been documenting my homelab experiments, set ups, configurations, how-to's, etc in both Trilium and Silverbullet. I use Silverbullet more as a wiki and Trilium for journal style notes. I just got into self hosting earlier this year, so I'm by no means an expert or authority on any of this.
So my Silverbullet set up contains most of my documentation on how to get things set up. I have sections for specific components of the homelab (Proxmox general set up, general networking, specific how tos for getting various VMs and LXCs set up for specific applications, specific how tos on getting docker stacks up and running, etc.)
I didn't document shit the first two times I set up and restarted my entire homelab, but by the third time I learned. And from there I basically just wrote down what I did to get things running properly, and then reviewed the notes afterword to make sure I understood what I wrote. This is never a perfect process, so in the following attempts of resetting my server, I've updated sections or made things more clear so that when I'm coming at this 8 months later I can follow my guide fully and be up and running.
Some of my notes are just copy pasted directly from tutorials I originally followed to get things set up. This way I just have an easily accessible local copy.
When I troubleshoot something, I document the steps I take in Trilium using the journal feature, so I can easily track the times and dates of when I did what. This has helped me out immensely because I forget what the fuck I did the week before all the time.
I learned all this through trial and error. You'll figure out what needs to be documented as you go along, so don't get too caught up trying to make sure you have a perfect documentation plan in place before deploying anything.
I'm one of those people who never really took notes on things or wrote shit down for most my life. Mostly because I've been doing shit that doesn't require extensive documentation, so it was a big learning curve.
Edit: Forgot to mention that I also have a physical paper journal that I've scrawled various notes in. I found it easier to take quick notes on paper while I'm in the middle of working on something, then I transcribe those notes digitally in either Silverbullet or trilium.
Nah, I don't think its being gatekept. I got into self hosting earlier this year, so I have pretty fresh eyes as a new novice.
This community here has been an incredible resource for learning and asking questions, and people here are generally very helpful and kind.
"If you can’t configure Docker, reverse proxies, and Yaml files, you shouldn’t be self-hosting."
No, and I don't see this perspective pushed. You do have to eventually learn how to do these things though if you want to be able to selfhost in most capacities.
Is telling people they have to learn traffic laws before driving gatekeeping driving now?
Thanks for putting this together! This is an excellent write up and is super informative! I'm already using Navidrome + Tempo with Lidarr for my music library, but since the database issues with Lidarr popped up a few months ago I haven't bothered adding new stuff.
I had no idea Explo was a thing, it's just what I've been hoping existed. I'm going to try and get it integrated into my set up.
I've also really struggled with Caddy despite everyone saying its so simple. I'm pretty new to all this, but I had better luck with Traefik - I now actually have a reverse proxy up and running correctly, which I haven't been able replicate with Caddy.
Traefik labels make sense to me in a way Caddy does not.
Oh yeah I didn't mean to imply selling NSFW content is bad or a moral failing of some sort, because its not. Same way pushing boner pills on prime time cable isn't some sort of moral failing, I just don't care for it and have no desire to have that content pushed to me, so I avoid it.
My quibble with pizzacake is the low effort level of pushing these ads. If she was selling artisinal mittens and using low effort comics to push that I'd feel the same. It's just extra weird because the rabid fanbase will jump down your throat to the point that you have to post paragraphs denouncing misogynist intent just to point out that these comics are low effort ads.
EDIT: the r/comics drama and her general handling of criticisms also have influenced my opinion of pizzacake. But honestly, these comics lack any sort of punchline most of the time, and the "biting political takes" like this one are so BLAND and safe.
What are you talking about? American Christians are the biggest consumers of this slop.
