Dan said he’s looking for a gf. I’m sure Will is nice but he’s not invited

Those people may work in IT but in my experience most datacenter employees are vanilla as hell

You say “after” like that is a recent event. The Love Guru is nearly 20 years old.

That’s overly dramatic phrasing and you know it. Adding this kind of hyper technical quip to a thread aimed at beginners is insane. Stop doing that.

Look into docker containers in general. If I was going to start from scratch in your position this is what I’d do:

Install a Linux distribution on the computer you plan to use for self hosting. I found Debian with the KDE plasma desktop environment to be pretty familiar coming from Windows. You could technically do most of this on Windows but imo self hosting is pretty much the only thing that a casual user would find better supported through Linux than Windows. The tools are made for people who want to do things themselves and those kinds of people tend to use Linux.

Once you have a Linux distribution installed, get docker set up. Once docker is set up, install portainer as your first docker container. The steps above require some command line work, which may or may not be intimidating for you, but once you have portainer functional you will have a GUI for docker that is easier to use than CLI for most people.

From this point you can find the docker installation instructions for any service you want to run. Docker containers have all the required dependencies of a given service packaged together nicely so deploying new services is super easy once you get the hang of it. You basically just have to define where the container should store it’s data and what web port you want to access the service on. The rest is preconfigured for you by the people who created the container.

There’s certainly more to be said on this topic, some of which you would likely want to look into before you deploy something your whole family will be using (storage setup and backup capability, virtual machines to segregate services, remote accessibility, security, etc). However, the above is really all you need to get to the point where you can deploy pretty much anything you’d like on your local network. The rest is more about best practices and saving yourself headaches when something breaks than it is about functionality.

I hope I’m there already. If I’m not then I’m not being vocal enough about how much I despise the current US government

You’re right, but there’s no easy way to grade the effort without looking at the final result. That’s how you end up with a school system that prioritizes test results so much it ends up teaching students how to pass a test instead of learning and processing information.

That really will be the perfect repost when he dies and MAGA inevitably tries to call out everyone celebrating as disrespectful

That lip bite really sells the idea that he wants to fuck those noodles

Windows was less shitty in the 90s too

More like the OG “shiny is better” users

CEOs have all sounded the same for years now. Add in LLM talking points regularly and they all sound like robots with a broken speech unit

That is what they were doing for this test but that is not what will be required to run this once it releases. At least, that’s what they’re saying now

I last played it a couple of months ago. It’s significantly more fleshed out than the initial release, which seemed pretty empty and boring by comparison. Crafting isn’t really my thing but they make it relatively easy and not as annoying as many other games. Overall it’s worth checking out. I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would

Familien min kommer fra Norge men jeg kan snakke bare en liten Norsk

Brå gjort, fortsett sånn!

Point the fan outwards and pull heat out instead of pushing cool air in. Problem solved.

Hvordan går det med norsklæringen?

Yes, I said “in some way” because not everyone can contribute code directly. There are other things besides money you can offer to contribute (graphic design, community/brand management, communication, general organizational tasks, forum moderation, etc) but funding is usually the simplest and most necessary.

I need Linux phones to be a thing now more than ever.

This doesn’t happen in a vacuum. If you’re not already, find a project and contribute towards it some way.
