If you look up “Dr. Frankenstein Discord” you’ll find the community that helped me get familiar with Docker. As in, several people held my hands for about 2 weeks non-stop. I can’t tell you enough how much I love that group. But containers aren’t the only way to go.

I hear people talking about Proxmox a lot, and it seems (as far as I can tell) to be one of the easiest platforms for hosting many services one a machine. Next computer I set up, I’ll be going that route.

Regardless of how you do it, the knowledge base and skills mostly transfer like a Venn diagram. The most important pieces to get started are hardware and patience. Everything else can be solved with online teamwork

If you wanna get really tin-foiled about it, Planet X and a dead star beyond the belt

I saved the post because I’ve always been interested in aggregating a RSS feed, but I need ideas for what to subscribe to. Thanks for making the post

I was just looking into this yesterday. I’d love to hear if it’s worth the hassle. People seem to be 50/50 on its long-term usefulness, “just use _____!”

I’m an idiot so it took me about 3 frustrating years to get all the docker containers working. Worth it every day

YSK I’m profiteering off of the masses thinking like this by not moving my money. It’s worked for me every time someone told me “you should reinvest”

After making the jump, you’re totally right

Just bought a 2001 car for this very reason, and it’s the best driving car I’ve had in a decade

Had no idea that existed, I wonder what the security is like

The biggest downside, as I understand it, is that it’s difficult to convince others to use your tailnet

I’m waiting for Linux to make installing programs as simple as an exe

That sounds like something that should be ARCHIVEd. Just in case a visitor from a different GALAXY wants to use them in the distant future

As a dude that served, fuck yes

I have about 1TB of music, and I’m listening to music all the time. My go-to has been a Jellyfin server with either the desktop client or Finamp on my phone. I used to use Gelli on my phone, but it stopped working a few months ago

Good luck

I paid over $1k about 10 years ago for music software. My computer killed itself, so I made a new one and redownloaded the software…but the company said I’m an imposter. After years of fighting with them, they refused to activate my paid software despite proving my identity and showing proof of purchase. I didn’t choose to pirate, the system chose for me

Simplewall + Pi-hole, all I’ve had to do with this setup is a quick regex change that blocked all the Xbox stuff. Despite what people want you to believe, you don’t have to use Linux

Jellyfin has been the coolest software I’ve spent time learning, highly recommend

You use Chromium, don’t act elitist

Can you give an example? This is the first criticism of Proton I’ve heard
