No worries mate. I was just sitting here jamming some blues on the guitar and felt inspired.

Actually one of these free logo maker sites and I just screen grabbed it instead of paying for it, then flooded the background with Gimp. However a logo made with AI that says Zero AI would be irony.

Might want to crop it a bit. Go nuts!

I’m no stranger to Tailscale, I just thought it would have been a bit slow for gaming.

Well, thank you for making it public. IIRC, it did help me in a couple things so again, thank you.

Zero AI too

I think you will start to see the ‘Zero AI’ label starting to pop up on personal blogs and wikis.

It’s a trade off. Buy older equipment and DDR3 is cheap. I dropped 40 more gb on the server for about $45 USD. The downside is that older equipment is not as energy efficient and as fast as newer equipment.

Do you feel guilty if I’d asked you about that?

Yeah I probably would because I spend a lot of time watching it, blocking new threats and unwanted guests. My goal is to achieve the cleanest stream possible.

This is your wiki? I’ve been there before. Turned up in a search.

lol

Realistically, 1gbit connection is good for uploading and downloading huge architectural plans, but other than that, I rarely use anything close to it’s max capacity. It’s like having a killer sports car that will go 0 to 60 in a few seconds, but you rarely have the need to do that.

Echoing what @thagoat@lemmy.dbzer0.com said, I selfhost it and I only have one user…me.

Oldest (32bit)

I still have a functional 32 bit laptop. It’s rather slow, but it does work

Cool. I just figured traversing a Tailscale VPN would be yet another ‘thing’ between you and your gaming partners.

Well, would you look at Mr Moneybags over here. LOL I wish tho. I just have a 1gbit connection.

Ahhhh I do like my grafana dashboards.

Learning and experimenting with things

This is the part I really love.

I use nonstandard ports for just about everything such as Docker containers, including ssh. However, modern bots are quite capable of scanning your server for vulnerabilities, CVE, zero day, and SSH. A non standard SSH port does reduce noise a bit but isn’t a reliable defense against scanners.

• Servers: Ubuntu Jammy
• NUC: Mint xfce
• VMs: Kali, Mint, and a variety of others including WIndows & Mac.

I hear a lot of chatter about NixOS. Going to have to check it out.

I have used searxng for about a year now, I have had quite a few personal gripes

What gripes have you had? Curious. Maybe something I’ve overlooked.
