Do you want a serious answer or is this going to turn into yet another joke response about how dumb I am and how you'll be extra "original" to copy every comment of mine into an LLM for training data?

Do they do reporting with AMD engineers? If not, AMD should be jumping on this as fast as possible.

No sonic boom shall reach the ground, but fuck everything else in the air. Free fusrodah for the birds!

My problem isn't the hardware, it's that the place I'm moving to will have a bad internet connection. My current homeserver has stuff like a CI (currently being tested), a builder for software (compiling rust, C/C++, go, and whatever else), immich, nextcloud with an extension to download from youtube and other sources (basically to circumvent geoblocking of multiple friends and family), and it could be expanded to host other services e.g a seedbox. All that stuff needs good hardware and a good connection.

My problem is that I'm moving in the not so far future and I don't know where to put my server. Physical security is important and if someone gets into my house, takes the computer and leaves, it'll be worthless due to encryption. But if it's in somebody's datacenter (co-location or whatever), they could be forced to monitor my traffic, tamper with my system, and I'd have to entrust the key to somebody in order to boot the system and decrypt the drives should it restart for an update or for any other reason.

I'm considering asking a friend to host the homeserver and reimburse them for a better internet connection (fiber) + electricity costs. But I'm not sure they'd be up for it.

How would you solve the problem?

Hey! Another nixos user 😁 What are you using for your VPS? nixos-infect? nixos-everywhere?

As for mini PCs, a friend bought one from Minis Forum and quite likes it. But if you want to support the opensource ecosystem, there are tuxedo computers and slimbook. There's also starlabs byte.

Take your pick :)

Could somebody even explain what's going on?

Sure, the anticapitalists won't be anticapitalistic. That's just an excuse not to vote "they're both the same", then wonder why right wingers keep driving countries closer to the cliff edge.

Of course I don't. Maybe I should've said "never met anybody obviously like this". Nobody knows about my political leanings or sexual preferences at work either.

I would expect 40Mb (5MB/s) up and down, but the router is at 1/16 of the possible speed. Is this the max speed?

 

To me, the two major problems are:

  1. no namespaces

Someone uploads "serde2"? that's blocked forever. Someone uploads a typo version of a popular package? Too bad for you, learn how to type.

  1. the github connection

If you want to contribute to crates.io you're bound to github. No gitlab, codeberg, gitee, sourcehut, etc.

Not sure if there are any other problems, but those two seem like the biggest things and #1 is AFAIK not something they ever want to change + it would be difficult to as one would need a migration strategy.

 
  1. It doesn't make you anonymous. Torrent protocol wasn't designed with anonymity in mind and there are a million ways you're going to leak your actual IP address.
  2. Tor is a TCP only network.
  3. While this doesn't give you the anonymity you wanted, it will hurt the network for other users.
 

Doesn't have to be from this week or this month. A wow moment can even be years back.

 

For example, I can't upvote or comment on a single thing in this thread https://programming.dev/post/4577853?scrollToComments=true which is from !technology@lemmy.world

Same goes for !linux https://programming.dev/post/4449644?scrollToComments=true

 

Check out their Github too https://github.com/makepad/makepad

Frankly, I find it amazing what they're doing with 3 people. The repo needs some polish, but the result is impressive.

 

There must be some way they can EEE linux.

 

I would like to write my own read-only client(s) to pull my transactions from the bank and keep track of my spending. It would be possible to then feed this into other software (either that I write myself or that I can find and trust).

In the future, the goal is to actually initiate transfers to European bank accounts. For example an automatic transfer between savings accounts when the interest rates increase for one bank, or transfer from a savings account to a stock exchange instead of letting it sit on a stock exchange waiting to be invested.

It's not entirely clear where to start as the banking system seems quite opaque and it feels like I'd have to get a job at the bank to understand how it works. Stock and crypto exchanges have APIs and sometimes even libraries, but banks?

Large companies don't innovate anymore, they acquire and Google's sourceforge offering is... let's call it underwhelming. If they tried to compete with Github and threw money into Gitlab, what do you think they'd do?

 

Maybe this could be added to the sidebar?
