  • Anyone else about ready to give up on tech?

    Jump

  • I look at it this way: me setting up little services for myself and my friends and family, tinkering with Linux and FOSS software, giving money to devs for software I host or use frequently and not corporations, are all ways I stand my digital ground against this "technoligarchy" we've found ourselves in.

    Sure, one day they might come for my stuff. But that just means I've won.

  • put aside the idea that a beginner is dicking around with proxmox (why!?)

    Fun :)

    But seriously, I wanted to throw myself into it to see if I could learn it. I totally get the impulse to question a beginner's choice for promox; I am questioning it too, frankly. I may follow your advice of restarting that server, but the thought of setting everything up again hurts my soul... At least I know how, though!

    Thanks for the kind response.

  • So what's up with Syncthing right now?

    Jump

  • I use it between PCs (binary, flatpak) and NAS (Docker), but i believe the android fork is still potentially compromised. Haven't updated the android version since the repo was taken over.

  • What's the dumbest/silliest reason you got in trouble for in school?

    Jump

  • I can think of two stupid ones right off the top.

    In my highschool freshman year, in our multimedia & webpage design (a very barebones graphic design/learn how to use Microsoft Office class), I got in sent out of class for doing all of my work at home (I used GIMP and a pirated copy of Sony Vegas at home). That same teacher also gave me a long lecture about viruses for visiting downloadmoreram.com.

    In middle school, maybe 6th grade, we were split into groups to do some group project. Everyone was talking, working on their posters, chitchatting, normal kid stuff. For reasons I do not know, I had like sat down and shifted weird, and my throat made a strange, quite loud, involuntary noise. Kind of like a weird yelp? I did not mean to make this noise, but regardless, everything got super quiet, and the teacher asked "who yelled?" I stood up, explained that I did not yell, and accidentally made that noise. Teacher didn't believe me and sent me to the office. I'm still confused about that one.

  • Resize root partition in Debian VM

    Jump

  • Here it is, the dumb question: How can I boot from an iso to modify a VM's partitions? Further, would the VM's / dir need to be unmounted first to resize it? Thanks for the guidance.

  • I don't get why they're okay with this

    Jump

  • I like automatic updates when I explicitly turn them on myself. I do NOT like automatic updates when they happen during work hours, force me to close programs and/or restart my PC, and reinstall things that I explicitly removed from my PC.

    How can I create or start my own community on here

    Jump

  • Not to be pedantic, but that would be your lemmy.world login. Voyager is simply an app to interact with lemmy. For instance i use the Boost app to access Piefed. You can login by visiting lemmy.world from your preferred browser.

    Once you've created the community you want, you can share it at !newcommunities@lemmy.world (among other places). Welcome to the threadiverse!

  • There are no cool new features.

    B-but you can buy an overpriced webcam to talk to your friends over spotty online voice chat. What other features could you possibly want?! (/s)

  • Self-hosting in 2026 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure

    Jump

  • I agree with your post 100% I think. Removing oneself from big tech/data services like Google and Microsoft is resisting the regime. It's especially useful for folks that may not be able to get out and protest, meet with their representatives, etc.

    As for me, I'm running my *arr/media stack for myself and my close friends and family. Fuck Disney, Netflix, and Paramount. For our household, HomeAssistant keeps the lights on and SyncThing backs up our files to the NAS.

  • If a company makes a rewards/points program but then makes it difficult to use the points/rewards the company is garbage as are the execs in that company.

    Jump

  • When I shopped at Gamestop all throughout my teens and early 20s, I was of course a "Pro Member" (their name for the rewards/magazine program). Unfortunately somehow that rewards number got tied to either an ooooold email or an incorrect one, and I tried countless times to try and fix it. Their website sucked, their customer support for rewards was nonexistent, and the most annoying thing was when I went into a store and bought something. The employees would be shocked at how many points I had, and just say "call the home office" every time I told them I could not access my account and points.

    Other people probably had a normal experience, but I just wanted to share my rewards program anecdote to your opinion :)

  • Is this even a question?

    Jump

  • You don't go to WH during normal business hours. You go in the wee hours of the morning or very late in the evening under the influence of your substance of choice.

    It doesn't surprise me to learn that it's a less dramatic place to work. All of the staff is ready to kill at any moment, I wouldn't bring drama either 😅

  • What do you think of people who CONSTANTLY talk about religion?

    Jump

  • I guess I'd describe myself as agnostic, but I find them to be annoying, generally. This includes my grandmother who must bring up God in every conversation. Weather? God. Politics? God. What people are up to? God. Her particular flavor of "Christianity" involves judging others, so the shit she spews isn't taken very seriously in our house. If I were in your friend's shoes, I'd probably just distance myself from this friend of his, since she doesn't really seem to respect him.

    I like to discuss religion and people's particular beliefs, mostly because it's fascinating how different groups and cultures have decided how to get through life with ultimately the same conclusion. But it's hard to do that when someone's view of the subject is voluntarily one-sided. I think it's ignorant to claim your religion as the way to believe, and the only way to get to some so-called heaven or afterlife.

  • How do different Proton versions work?

    Jump

  • And unfortunately, the wife's laptop has Nvidia. So far it's played nice with everything she likes to play on her laptop, but HF2 (the one game she reeeeeally wants to play, of course) is giving us trouble.

  • This is some great info. Thank you very much for taking the time to respond!

  • How do different Proton versions work?

    Jump

  • I meant that House Flipper 2 the game causes the laptop to hard crash somewhat frequently, as in, the entire computer must be powered off to do anything. Can't open a terminal, can't alt+tab out, etc. I didn't mean to imply that Proton was causing the crashing, I simply wanted to know how one version of Proton could be different than another, so I appreciate the reply.

  • Some of the larger ones are fairly intelligent (well, for a fish), and certainly social and playful like you said! We have a 40gal-ish tank with a few Pea Puffers and while they aren't nearly as smart as some of the bigger puffers, they are curious little buggers. I love em!
