Thanks I personally really needed this today actually! Well written and good points. Today is that kind day I need to take a step back and in a week or two ill have sorted out thoughts and have a more refreshed approach. Thanks.

Defo The biggest hurdle I think, not to mention making the USB bootable with additional software. Dead easy for us, but grandma would never have been able to wrap her head around that.

And Tt be fair, this process is the same for Windows. The only difference is people purchase their pc's with Windows pre-installed for them. I do wish more people got to experience the difference in installing Linux vs Windows though, bet it would be an eye-opener to many.

Also, I wonder what year stores will ask customers what OS they would like installed on their PC.

Thanks for the reply, ill do my best see how it works out!

 

So, got this silicon bakingmat and its amazing - does the job well. However its well used and I'd like to see it better cleaned than its current state, e.g. not brown. Tried the washing machine and manual cleaning with different sops and brushes. Is there a secret sauce to clean this kinda mat?

Appriciate any tips or recommendations.

 

Just discovered this cool project, thought i'd share it here.

In terms of browsing Google Play there are two alternative ways I'd recommend.

First one is AuroraStore, grab it from F-droid:

The second option is AppFinder, grab that from their website here:

 

Futo (Louis Rossman) at it again with great content, this time a Guide to a Self Managed life. This 14hrs long guide comes in two video parts, aswell as a written guide for those who prefer. Both video and written quide comes with complete chapters and timestamps. This should be a great starting point for those who have the time and want to start learning from the very beginning.

Happy selfhosting in 2025 everyone ✨

 

For example; GOG games - what happens if they were to shutdown their busieness. How would you archive these games if you had to?

 

Personally will be trying to transform my server which is currently in a fractal R5 case, into a small-ish Homelab rack, combined with all my network equipment. Will require complete relocation of all network equipment in the house as well as cables so it will be a bit of a project. Also on the lookout for a good quality rack so let me know if you have any recs. Still unsure if u want to do full width rack or mini. Part of me really want the UDM Pro from Unifi..

What are your goals and thing you want to accomplish during 2025?

JetKVM is much like nanoKVM but a slightly polised version.

What is JetKVM?

JetKVM is a high-performance, open-source KVM over IP (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) solution designed for efficient remote management of computers, servers, and workstations. Whether you’re dealing with boot failures, installing a new operating system, adjusting BIOS settings, or simply taking control of a machine from afar, JetKVM provides the tools to get it done effectively.

As far as I know, these Jets are not available for retail yet, but can be bought via their kickstarter.

Yo,

Wandering what the limit is when it comes to how many containers I can run. Currently I'm running around 15 containers. What happens if this is increased to say, 40? Also, can docker containers go "idle" when not being used - to save system resources?

I'm running a i7-6700k Intel cpu. Doesn't seem to be struggling at all with my current setup at least, maybe only when transcoding for Jellyfin.

 

As in, sea view, mountain view, lake view etc. Which with you choose if you got to place your house looking out at X type of view?

 

Hiya, got two very playful cats that both love to play. However often one ends up watching the other play with X toy. So was wondering if there are any specific toys where cats are "meant" to btoh use it at the same time? If so that would be cool.

So far we've mostly stuck to these original/typical toys, as in, paper bags, mouse on a thread and simple balls with bells, etc.. Feel free to suggest cat toys you've had most success with, need something new for our ones. Anyone here tried these automatically moving balls - any good?

 

Hi there, been working on my selfhosted setup a bit lately and just noticed that if I browse to my own WAN-IP it will show to the public the interfance of my oc200 omada hardware controller. While it does have a login form with username password, id be much more confident if this wasnt public at all. I've looked online and in my settings but struggle to find anything related to this. Is it common that this is on be default?

Any pointers greatly appriciated.

Edit: Solved - I panicked without thinking I was on my own lan when checking this..
