You might not even be able to install modern OS on it as many are starting to drop support for old hardware, I know the linux kernel did some pruning recently.

I tried thinking of them and started laughing. Tried a second time to be sure and it happened again. Am I doing it right?

You asked for fiction so it gave you some on a whole new level.

On a more serious note, other services like bing AI chat are more suited to this. It will behave more like an assistant for this kind of query and be able to search the web for lists of highly rated scifi titles, it can also give you titles similar to something else you enjoyed.

ChatGPT is the same tech behind that but it’s more closed off and unable to do those things properly. If it does spit out some good titles it’ll be both a coincidence and using outdated data from whenever it was last trained.

mail is the one thing I refuse to self host for the simple reason that despite not being particularly hard to get up and running initially, when it doesn’t work for whatever reason it can be and often is a gigantic pain in the ass to deal with, especially when it’s something out of your control. For personal there’s very good free options, for enterprise those same free options have paid options.

Whether it be gmail having a bad day and blocking you or whatever cloud provider or on prem infrastructure crapping out for long periods of time causing you to be cut off from email for a while and potentially missing incoming mail permanently if the retries time out. Or anything in between. It’s one of those things where I’m glad it isn’t my problem to deal with.

My only involvement with email is ensuring I have a local copy of my inbox synced up every week so if my provider were to ever die I still have all my content.

I do this with strawberries and blueberries, should work with raspberries too. I freeze them (or buy them frozen off season), put them in a blender and put in some lemon juice. The result is basically a citrusy berry slushy/ice cream replacement. I don’t purchase ice cream anymore I do this instead.

Before even worrying about the content of individual torrents people should worry about the sites themselves being full of ads, spyware and other garbage that generates revenue for shady people. There’s a reason beyond just privacy that people use rss and magnet links. In an ideal scenario you never go to an actual torrent website.

Buy the domain itself wherever you want. I like cloudflare, and a lot of people also suggest porkbun.com. You then point the nameservers for your domain to whatever DNS service you want. If you stick to cloudflare then it’s already done for you.

For dynamic DNS I use cloudflare’s one using my router to keep it updated. It’s easy to set up. Depending on your router you may need to run a service on a machine to do this instead. things like pfsense/opnsense should have it built-in.

I have nowhere near that many but I did try this once. Within a month it was ruined so I just caved and allowed chaos to rule my spice organization. I know where everything is approximately and can find it, I just won’t send someone else to try and get any spice out of there.

You likely wouldn’t be using cloudflare for that level anyways, since you want it to work when you’re offline you’d bypass them entirely with local DNS server, local reverse proxy+certs. You’d use something like certbot with let’s encrypt which works fine. https://certbot.eff.org/

You’re right but you can get a wildcard for that level as well.

If you mean accessing them from within your LAN while your internet is down then no it won’t work.

What you should be doing is either split horizon DNS (LAN resolves local IPs, public resolves public IPs) or use different DNS hostnames internally, for example media.local.yourdomain.com

You then set up a reverse proxy in your LAN and point everything to that, use a let’s encrypt wildcard cert using the DNS challenge method so you can get *.yourdomain.com protected with a single cert. Since you use cloudflare you can use the cloudflare API plugin with certbot, it’ll automate everything for the DNS challenge and no need to keep opening ports or configuring http/https challenges every couple of months.

I live in canada so my solution for news now will be to spin up some self hosted app that will scrape all the content and create an RSS feed that doesn’t require me to go to their website. Obviously not everyone can do this but it’ll overall be hurting the news sites more than anything, they literally advocated for a law that might ruin them.

I still don’t really get this law. I’m not one to defend big tech companies but everyone’s spent the better part of the past 20 years doing everything they could do their websites to appear at the top of search results. Now they’re mad they appear and want to be paid for the privilege of being made discoverable on the web?

If it wasn’t for search results, sites like lemmy/reddit and my android phone’s news feed I would not go to any of these sites to begin with, ever.

If you’re not using it to make money it’s never not OK. I can’t see it as theft. It’s just a different method of obtaining the same thing that doesn’t harm anyone.

Not only are those making this choice unlikely to pay anyways, but all the regular people who worked creating it already got paid so nobody can say “oh the film crew, VFX artists etc will be out of a job”. No they already did their job and got paid. The investors maybe want more money but they aren’t hurting for it, I don’t feel anything for them.

Season 8 is the season that just started last week. There’s a second episode coming out today if it isn’t already.

Some sources will say there’s 11 seasons because they split up some older ones for some reason but officially there is 8.

I went with docker but back then their documentation for it was trash and hardly worked. Had to trial and error it until it was functional. Hopefully they fixed that by now.

If you host the instance just for your own account to be under your control there’s hardly any overhead. I’m running it in docker in a debian 12 VM with 1 GB ram, 1 virtual CPU and 50GB virtual disk. Haven’t had any issues.

I also see your account is on “infosec.pub” in the same way mine is on “social.vmdk.ca” so you can try searching on lemmy.world or some other instance for the post in question using keywords. For example I found this on lemmy.world directly while searching for UAP, no idea if it’s what you’re talking about. https://lemmy.world/post/1812373

Are you sure they’re being deleted? Federation is a bit weird in that the instance you’re browsing from might not have a piece of content for whatever reason (database rollback/restore or other issues) but if it was posted then it’s out there somewhere on an instance that grabbed it while it was still up.

A bad CEO/Company owner trickles down to everything under them in the company. They pass major decisions or budgets (or lack thereof) that work their way down to everything if not immediately then over time. Toilets not getting cleaned probably comes down to people either not getting paid or being fired to avoid having to pay them, resulting in either no custodial staff or insufficient staff. There’s no way to defend him about this.
