What constitutes a documentation-worthy action to you?
For me…everything. I’m 71, and the brain doesn’t recall as well as it once did. So, my mantra is: If you didn’t write it down, it didn’t happen. Even if you are a young buck, don’t get sucked into thinking ‘yeah…I can remember all this shit 6 months down the road. No worries’. That’s the devil talking Bobby Boucher. LOL
Welcome to the club. Enjoy the journey. Learn and explore.
Honestly, unless you are just hardcore with a lot of disposable income, or you do remote administration for a company from home, a rack full of enterprise equipment is a bit of overkill. Not throwing shade at all, and I drool on them too when I see selfhosters with them. Thing is, modern, consumer grade equipment with some minor modifications like a dual nic, larger HDD/SSD, etc will get you very far down the road. Now days, it doesn’t take a lot to get a lot out of your equipment.
my manga doesn’t really play well with Calibre-Web
Yeah I had that problem with all my tentacle porn. /s
Dude! Welcome to the club. That’s an awesome set up. For the total price, you’ve done very well.
a total of 1,25TB storage.
Wow! That will hold a lot of Linux ISO’s
in order to not have to work with the terminal at all times, I installed Casa OS
Pretty solid platform. Admittedly, I am a sucker for a good UI, but don’t neglect learning the terminal tho. One thing that helps me is documentation. I document everything I am doing at the time. All the terminal commands, etc. That way, I can always go back to any point of administration, especially when the wheels fall off. There are so many commands and multiple commands to do the same. I’ve had a computer in front of me since the mid 70s and I still feel like a noob when it comes to my terminal game. Documentation helps me out a lot.
Nice! Rock on with yo’ bad self.
I may be hallucinating. It’s kind of hard to keep up with everything sometimes. I’ll see if I can dig up something. I wasn’t throwing shade on your suggestion, or trying to inject doubt. It just triggered a light in my brain, but unfortunately, my brain has no recollection except that there was something. Thanks pos brain!
Grimmory
Since you use Grimmory, what does it have that Calibre Web doesn’t
hell of a shitty weekend.
LOL I have tossed the idea around about selfhosting a password manager, and while I am fairly confident in my server’s security, I finally conclude not to.
Wasn’t there some drama recently about Turnkey? I vaguely remember some kind of kerfuffle.
+1 for the helper scripts
third party apps retrieving any more than a small subset of my music library from Navidrome.
Huh… well, glad you got it all worked out. Navidrome is the first thing to get fired up every morning. I can’t start the day without my blues, jazz, soul, r&b, and funk.
You know Dasher, and Dancer, and Prancer, and Vixen. Comet, and Cupid, and Donner, and Blitzen…
My ignorance isn’t an excuse so my bad.
Dude…you’re fine. I am assuming you are in another country. It would be like me knowing every last politician in your country and what they are most famous for. Just not going to happen. Hell, it’s hard enough keeping up with the crooks we have.
His name is Lindsey Graham and all you have to do is look up his name and ‘racist’. It’s not your fault. As you said, you didn’t know who he is. No harm, no foul. I’ll put up with a lot of bullshit from a lot of people, but I just have no tolerance for racists. Stupidest thing I’ve ever heard from people who didn’t choose their skin color either. Former president LBJ, who had his own issues with racism, said something that will stand the test of time:
“If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”
I was having a good day until you posted this racist, redneck, bastard.
I thought Lemmy/selfhost was getting spicy.
If I do buy now, I think I’d just spend a big chunk,
15 years ago, I built a computer. Stocked it with all the cutting edge tech I could cram into it. Still a great computer and pretty capable.
If I were to build another, I’d do it the same way. Build it for long term service, which means you’re going to spend a bit more, but the payout is better. If you break it down, I’ve spent $.63/per day, for 15 years. Not a bad return.
That’s the devil talking Bobby Boucher.
April Fools
I’m not much for the standard April Fools pranks. They start put with humor, but will inevitably be taken to far as each person involved tries to one—up the other.
Good call.
