We have a single cluster at work - it's possible I'm missing something, but the appeal is just not there.

Had it in my previous place. Worked well enough

I would also throw Xen into the mix - I really liked running it at home until the server physically died.

 

The company I'm at right now is on this boat as well

Ship an appimage or something, use basic fs abstraction to create an encrypted blob, do whatever you want within said blob.

Look at virtualbox or something for inspiration.

Look at xdg desktop portals for transfering files.

A bit of a PSA for LG owners running webOS:

I rooted my tv and now have adless youtube, but apparently root is not a prerequisite - there also installation using dev mode. Admitedly, haven't tried it and it's probably less convenient to get it set up, but then it should be a one time thing.

How do you control it? Any fancy integration or just good old mouse?

At least on zsh it would pop both of those as suggestions you can cycle through.

I have finally found an quick and easy write up by somebody on Reddit that worked for me first time!

Dual display on Sway has become much more usable now!

I did not know that! Thank you!

What do you mean by implementations? Is this closer debian vs rhel or more like linux vs bsd?

OpenRC is daemon supervisor (probably not the right name).

OpenRC-init is the init.

By default, on OpenRC installations, the init will be SysV.

I have switched a few boxen to openrc-init and have to report that it works fine.

That is literally the way it works now. As an example - go to https://phtn.app/. Photon is a UI for lemmy. That specific website is hosted by the developer and you can log into any instance. I think Alexandrite and Voyager webapps act the same, but I haven't tried them, so can't be sure atm.

killall -9 processname works well when you can't be asked to get the pid.

kill -9 $$ is my favourite way to save face when I enter something into shell that shouldn't be in its history. Usual situation - switching panes and forgetting a recently used sudo session. Switching to root and getting there without a password prompt, but still typing it in. Wouldn't be helpful in situations where shell history is monitored remotely, but hey ho.

I'm a syaadmin now, but self hosting nextcloud is what got me my first IT job. I now host a bunch of stuff (even email!), lemmy included.

how did you decide that you would like to self-host? I wanted my friends to play a cs1.6 map I had created.

There was no immediate comment from Ukraine.

 

According to Mehta this kind of connectivity could support 512 GPUs in as few as eight racks, acting as a single scale-up system.

That's a biggin!

 

Despite early promises, moving between providers remains a complex and costly endeavor

Yea, it feels an awful lot like VC funded businesses - they lure you in with low pricing, bankrupt and buy out the competition and then hold you by the balls.

An interesting read. I don't fully agree with the following statement:

And like the proverbial lunatic who tries the same thing over and over thinking he might get a different result, U.S. policymakers never seem to learn the right lessons, he argued.

The context here is all the attempts at regime change in the Middle East. I think there's a good chance the regime was just an excuse enabling the military industry to keep moving forward.
