I use it for Plex/Jellyfin, it’s the cheapest NVIDIA GPU that supports both AV1 encoding and decoding, even though Plex doesn’t support AV1 yet IIRC it’s still more futureproof that way. I picked it up for like around $200 on a sale, it was well worth it IMO.
64GB would be a nice amount of memory to have. I’ve been okay with 32GB so far thankfully.
Not anymore. My main self-hosting server is an i7 5960x with 32GB of ECC RAM, RTX 4060, 1TB SATA SSD, and 6x6TB 7200RPM drives.
I did used to host some services on like a $5 or $10 a month VPS, and then eventually a $40 a month dedi, though.
Ah, I think it uses JavaScript, not Java, so yeah it looks like it is a web app.
It’s quite impressive IMO that you are into open-source software even though you say you don’t know anything about computers, I’d say that counts as something, plus you know about Lemmy too. We all love open-source software here :)
Wait, is it a web app or does it use Java? Those are two distinctly different technologies.
Self-hosting is definitely a ton of fun. I love being able to host my own services, whether it’s using like a server in the cloud or my own hardware.
I think even if they do reverse course or it was a genuine mistake, it’s easy to lose people’s trust forever, ESPECIALLY when it comes to something sensitive like storing ALL of your passwords.
For me, the biggest thing was the program not running from a single window. IIRC there was actually a separate fork of GIMP that made it run in a single window called GIMPshop or something, and that made it into a single window. I’m not sure when GIMP itself got single window functionality.
It’s a lot more usable these days.
That’s what private trackers (and torrents in general) are for, but private trackers commonly share copyrighted materials, which is of course not so legal depending on where you live.
My current company treats effort the same as time. I can appreciate that they’re at least honest about that lol
My first and third job had daily standup, my second and fourth job don’t have daily standup. I’m on my fourth job. I love not having standup.
That’s what I’m wondering.
I haven’t heard any reports of or seen any abuse for emulators like Xenia, RPCS3, Dolphin, Citra, etc. I wonder if this is something unique/specific to people finding out it’s Stenzek, or if it’s more widespread than we realize?
Personally, I do think non-permissive licenses aren’t nice, and I do think there should be criticisms, skepticism, and concerns to be voiced about that. At the same time, if it’s the owners project, he is free to do with it as he wishes. Then again, if something has a large enough of a community, you could argue that it’s no longer just their project. But I understand that if you want to prevent people profiting off of your work (and your contributors work), a no-commercial license does make sense. It’s a complex situation.
Still impressive imo, I have friends who work in IT who don’t even self-host lol
I like to call myself a professional idiot. I love tinkering with my homelab setup.
As someone with a strong tech background, that’s just impressive to me. It’s cool to see non-technical people are interested in self-hosting too, and for good reason.
Technically there’s no substitute for testing in production lol
Although ideally you’d want to test it beforehand…
Thankfully that’s one thing that can be restored between BIOS versions for my motherboard lol
Depending on your BIOS and/or motherboard, you can’t restore them between versions. The point of clearing the BIOS settings after flashing a new version is to ensure that you only have values that are expected, which is why restoring backups can often be blocked between versions.
Yay, another BIOS update!
I am getting so sick of all these BIOS updates because of all these security vulnerabilities all the time. It is so tiring having to set up my settings all over again all of the time. Earlier this year, or maybe it was last year, it felt like every month or two there was a new BIOS update for a new security vulnerability.
Wow, that’s a really complete list. Thanks for sharing! I might check out Dokploy some time, it sounds interesting.
