Just wait until all the money gets hoovered up by corporate owned farms!

I didn’t know we were doing QE again. That’s neat.

I’ve been on a retro kick. Recently I’ve been messing with a Pentium 233 MMX. I burned a tinycore Linux CD a couple days ago so I could make this:

Make sure your laptop bios allows iommu to be enabled. This is the only way I know to pass your GPU directly to a VM. And even this is still pretty fiddly.

Don’t dismiss the steam/proton rec. Or dual boot.

Preach!

Glad I’m not the only one.

How do I sign up for the left handed ideology newsletter?

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.

Requiem for a dick

You laugh, but this is how Comcast dealt with me knowing it was them or 4g wireless internet.

The odds of having more than one viable ISP option in the US are slim. I live in a major metro, and it’s only been the past couple years I’ve had a second option. I was living comcastrated for the previous decades.

Don’t worry, I never subscribed in the first place. Yaaaarrrrrrr…

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.

I’ve been using the original m1 running a lineage OS based android TV for a couple years. It’s perfect. I added a nvme drive for a “DVR” in tivimate, but we rarely use it. I use a cheapo 2.4ghz remote from Amazon.

I had to hunt for it. Meta threads and activitypub. I remember a big hullabaloo about it a while back.

Hmm. My uneducated guess is maybe increased resources needed for federation? I’m sure lemmy.world is still growing at a steady clip. Are we federated with the meta thing?

Whatever you did is working. I have no more issues.

What is driving the increased demand for resources?

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.

My wife and I go through hot & cold spells. I think we have similar drives, but our timing doesn’t always match up. I’m more of a “harness the power of the morning wood” sort of fellow. She’s more of a “I want it right now but he’s still at work” sort of gal. We both talk a big game, but work, childcare and adulting conspire against us.
