I am tired and bored.

  • What I host myself

    Jump

  • I have some services in my homelab but I never expose anything to the public. For this I have a Contabo VPS hosting a Wikipedia mirror and a XMPP server for anyone who wants to access it

  • Forgejo fills up hard drive with repo-archives

    Jump

  • I was just about to install Gitea. Any substantial differences between the two?

  • Data Backup Solutions

    Jump

  • For me borg is ideal. Once a month I run a backup.

  • What is the current state of Matrix?

    Jump

  • Synapse was too heavy on my resources. Moved to XMPP despite I like Matrix more.

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

    Jump

  • So cool! I love Silverstone cases, they're really made for homelabbers. I have a ML05 that contains 6 hard disks (2,5") in the size of a PlayStation. Spent just 30€ (35$) for one on Facebook marketplace, new.

    I recently bought some more Zigbee devices to pair to my Home Assistant: door sensors and a Methane detector

  • Proxmox or Docker?

    Jump

  • Snapshots

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

    Jump

  • Hey so cool! If you would like to drop the name of your company please do :)

  • Synology could bring “certified drive” requirements to more NAS devices

    Jump

  • That's why I don't tie myself to a specific company. DIY NASers, unite!

  • Peak homelabbing

    Jump

  • I also have a laptop working as a server. The problem is that the WiFi antenna is in the lid and it just doesn't work well when the lid is closed

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

    Jump

  • Stuff for my homelab. Not worth it, it's just toys for adults

  • Thank fuck for wonderful projects like Valetudo!

    Jump

  • HomeAssistant + Zigbee devices = ❤️

    WiFi IoT stuff can be okay too if you trust the firmware or block its internet access

  • Major US brands sound alarm over rising anti-American sentiment

    Jump

  • Yea I've read of that. It was actually Russian psyops that exacerbated the tensions, in a period where they were meddling in Britain for Brexit

  • Major US brands sound alarm over rising anti-American sentiment

    Jump

  • I don't understand. Why boycotting then?

  • Podcast of Hegseth church network airs far-right and Christian nationalist views

    Jump

  • No way 🤯🤯🤯

  • What are you genuinely excited about?

    Jump

  • You're literally me. I love open source, decentralization and public knowledge so I totally love what you said.

  • is there any legitimate use of blockchains?

    Jump

  • That's true, but also the algorithm plays an important role. Do we really need ASIC farms in order to secure the network? Ideally, and how it was thought at the beginning, the individual nodes should also be responsible for its validation, using consumer grade hardware.

    There are greener algorithms like the Monero's. Also Nano uses something called "block lattice" in order to secure the network, with close to 0 required energy

  • is there any legitimate use of blockchains?

    Jump

  • Being on Lemmy, I like the idea of decentralized and permissionless stuff, including money. The problem I have with crypto is that they're either clearly scams (Trumpcoin, Melaniacoin etc) or they were not intended as a scam but the market fails to fairly price them because they speculate (e.g. Bitcoin).

    Also I don't understand why people keep insisting in buying Bitcoin when the energy to "produce" it is enormous and is responsible for a lot of CO2 emissions when there are greener cryptocurrencies.

  • is there any legitimate use of blockchains?

    Jump

  • A database is not an alternative to the blockchain.

  • Trump's military occupation of DC crashes into reality—literally

    Jump

  • Clowns

  • Removed

    Are there any Lemmy instances that support freedom of speech?

    Jump

  • But but but my fReEdOoM oF sPeEcH!!!!

    Edit: Another user discovered who OP is and he is Pro-Trump and Pro-Israel. Glad that people like these have no space on Lemmy.
