  • oh boo hoo! You were sold something and it wasn't compatible? My heart bleeds for you....The absolute stupidity of half of the people on here, the blind hatred. It is like going back to school again, it really is... and yet here we are, and those same petty users wonder why people don't stay here and they continue to be exactly the same. This is exactly why here will become like Myspace and Nokia

    I'm considering setting up a home lab and truly self-hosting my own services. Unfortunately, my budget is limited to around $100-$150. I'm wondering if the HP Elitedesk mini PC is suitable for this

  • Pretty pictures don't always translate into another users experience though do they, but I appreciate you wanting to argue just because you can

  • I said you can force an upgrade and not need tpm, but you'd like to argue about something that helps security? Really? The x86 instruction set is widely varying, you can run win 11 on older hardware but it doesn't perform well. I guess that is something many don't like but it is the same across the board and also with pretty much any OS. Hating upon Microsoft seems to be a popular thing on the fediverse though, and it is one of the things that ruins what could be a great resource

  • Win 10 launched in 2015, and your point is? 6 years v 10... not really comparable is it in any shape, way or form...

  • and? Saying it has the same instruction set shows you actually don't understand what is needed to run win 11. Of course you can force an upgrade as well. But people seems pissed at Microsoft but give Apple a free pass for being far more manipulative, and again Intel here is the reason as they were so shocking for years Apple decided it could and has done a better job!

  • notice the bit about pushing it... say transcoding all the streams etc. I don't know what or how it will be used... thus saying should be fine. Everyones mileage varies no talk about network either, far too many variables to consider thus saying it should be fine!

  • For photos I'd look at running immich as it handles duplicates well, and it also plays nicely for you to categorise your photos and videos. For general backups, as said, I would personally look at a solution. I personally use duplicati, others exist, you can have a look into what you need. rsync can do the job, but I found duplicati quicker and easier to setup

  • As said it should be fine unless pushing it with something like media files/jellyfin/plex/nextcloud. Nextcloud for example needs few resources but running anything nice would soon crawl. For the best advice a bit more of what you intend to self host would be nice

  • I have zero faith anyone on here will have anything nice to say about Win 11. But it is fine, no issues here and never have had any. Here in the UK it is Windows in the workplace or windows, so pointless for me to try and support clients without a Win 10 and a Win 11 box. Win 7 has been gone for years for most. It is also Office everywhere in the workplace too, nothing else gets a look in, with some businesses having a smattering of non Microsoft products. The reality is that plenty of people will happily drop a grand on a new phone but only want to spend like £200 on a business laptop they have to work on, because, well it is only work innit. So many people refusing to spend money on work computing needs and would rather watch the laptop slowly grinding its way through things because they can then blame THEIR poor output on a shit computer

  • I have to firmly disagree - I mean Apple changed their whole cpu setup to force upgrades didn't they...Also it is over 10 years old, that's a good run. Has nothing to do with tight ass business owners who are turning to AI and using the money there instead has it?The hardware requirements are not that harsh. People simply believe they are. Intel rested on its laurels for 10 years and then people are like, oh I need a new setup my cpu won't run Win 11!

  • I haven't changed much in years, still run a truenas box (was freenas before) with 5 spinning rust drives and never lost any data yet (bang goes something now I've said it). Currently duplicati but some stuff is just backed up manually still. Each to their own like, and immich on truenas for backing up photos and videos

  • They do not need to be sexual abusive material, they find easily scraped images and then use AI to make the sexually abusive or pornographic to then blackmail the child/children and their parents. For instance, a case 2 weeks back, young mother shared images of her kids, not sexual but a few in swimsuits when they were young. These were then doctored and sent to this girl who is now older to blackmail her and then on to her mother in an attempt to blackmail her as well. The pictures were shared with a lack of understanding of privacy at the time so anyone could see them. Police struggling to find out who is blackmailing the person, and struggling to find a reason to actually investigate as they say it is a likeness of the person not the actual person and it was shared to the world years ago meaning permission was given (ie the picture was allowed to be shared at the time). Now of course I am not revealing any info as it is a current police investigation and that would be illegal but it appears to be going nowhere yet is disturbing to the kid and the mother

  • Also the rise of AI with easily found child images is what is starting to happen. Massive library of those overshared on, for example, Facebook over the years.

  • I am seeing it already here in the UK. Remember our privacy laws are totally different than plenty of other places, and most overshared without understanding the hows or whys. Oversharing might not be an issue now, but it will be in the future - that is why it is important to understand why it can be bad

  • Had a discussion with another creator buddy and they said it appeared that there was a load less scraping going on which inflated their viewer figures for months. I wonder if youtube is finally stopping their whole content being scraped perpetually?
