He already rescued Azerbaijan from two brutal wars that nobody ever heard of. Hasn’t he done enough?

I build from ewaste and keep things deliciously trashy looking.

I’ve been wanting to get matrix up for my family and friends to chat with my 6 year old on her tablet. I found nextcloud talk to do all the things I wanted with none of the hassle. My daughter is a ridiculous texter.

Your approach works too. Something like CasaOS answers OP’s question directly. I was thinking about how I started on this journey. I wanted to play with enterprise level tools at home on repurposed e-waste. So I started with proxmox. But I also came to the table with a couple decades of Linux experience under my belt.

Those scripts make it so easy. You can paste a command, accept defaults, watch some text scroll by and finish with instructions on how to access the tool you just installed.

My homelab is low power as well. I’m currently running zero VMs. Everything is done with LXCs. You can run a pi hole on 512 MB RAM.

Step 1: Install proxmox

Step 2: run the post install script here, disable anything enterprise, test or related to high availability.

Step 3: check out the other scripts on the link. I suggest starting with a pi hole and experimenting from there.

Lemmy does a good enough job of bringing content to me. But I appreciate your perspective. It’s definitely something to keep in mind as we get closer to the AI apocalypse.

I’m the same! I just don’t keep track of where all the useless knowledge in my head comes from.

This is so foreign to me. I never bookmark anything ever. I leave a few tabs open until I complete that task, read that article or decide I don’t care anymore.

I’d get myself banned this way. I forget the -p flag at least once per week.

I’ve had good luck with these guys: https://cloudfanatic.net/pricing/

I think they would fall in the less resources category. But they offer unlimited data transfer, and you can use any distro you want. I run slackware btw.

Gold star for you!

Nextcloud was too high fallutin for me. I share a zfs pool with proxmox’s file server appliance.

No ads and unlimited YouTube music. I do the family plan for my mom, wife and young daughter. We get our money’s worth for sure.

I’m an American and I canceled mine years ago! (Except youtube premium)

My wife loved orphan black! I didn’t know it was Canadian. We both loved Kim’s convenience. And Kenny vs Spenny is an all time great.

I found soulseek after Napster went away, and I love that it’s still going all these years later.

The only problem I have gaming on Linux these days is anti-cheat on a couple titles. Everything else is seamless already. The steam client works just as it does on Windows.

Never heard of this, but it sounds really neat. Can it actually replace ddg in my daily life?

CumBroth and oldfart, thank you for being internet heroes. Soulless is the best.
