  • If my lab goes down, it sucks, but that's it. I have no critical service running there.

    I have some recoverability, but it requires for the main router to run. If it isn't running it's either a HW failure, which I will not fix remotely anyway or power is down. In which case, not much I can do about it neither.

    I have router with OpenWRT with Wireguard and main server (NUC) on a smart plug. If the router runs and server is mishaving to the point where I cannot reboot it, I can power cycle it via the smart plug connected to the router.

    You mentioned your brother lives 30mins away - well put some tiny server in his house. Having everything at your home is not build for redundancy at all. That's just the risk management, if you absolutely need access to your server, then 1 site is not going to cut it.

  • I have been on the same boat a while ago. Of course it was a deployment that caught on and was serving longer than expected.

    I don't recall how many versions I skipped exactly (1-2 years worth of updates). Of course no backups set what so ever.

    I looked at change log of I need something specific, there were changes in docker compose file. Did my best effort to make it succeed.

    My worst case scenario was that I will have to import everything again and made sure I have all my labels, tags and settings backed up.

    Nowadays I'll just snapshot the whole VM in Proxmox.

  • Maybe it isn't such a bad news. To get ppl hooked on any paid services, they need a good product first.

    They can get lost with anything like Kerbal 2. That is if they relese something in pre-alpha state and ask $40 for it.

  • A sovereign Microsoft 365 alternative: Nextcloud and IONOS join forces - Nextcloud

    Jump

  • They have fairly good prices for small VPS, something like €1-2 and I cannot complain. Perfect for some small self hosting. I cannot comment on their more performant boxes.

    1&1 is kind of typical telco, with all the shady stuff and contracts. DSL from them is without any issues. Mobile is kind of problematic, it was fine for past 3-4 years but with their "Fancy 5G net up to 300mbps" has pretty shit so far. Last week I was abroad and my sim would not connect at all. Contacted them via online chat and they said to call them... They fixed it after like 20h

  • It's difficult to understand the move against custom ROMs. Especially considering the size of market for "weridos" that will spend hundreds of dollars on a device and first thing they do with it is unlocking bootloader.

    Take that away and you go head to head against Samsung and Apple. And you will not win.

  • The hidden cost of self-hosting

    Jump

  • There is a hidden cost to every hobby and everybody is willing to tolerate a certain degree of shittyness.

    I have a friends that has a rather old car and something on it is always broken. But he has no problem having 20 different apps for appliances, instead of deploying home assistants. Or having ads everywhere and even trying pihole or at least NextDNS.

    On the other hand, I see my car as a transportation tool and when I need it I want to use it without worrying about some random part exploding. But I have no problem running Proxmox and hosting tons of services for my family.

    That said, I would definitely not self-host something like NextCloud or any business critical component for my business and just paid somebody for the service.

  • Well it's nice not to have a speed limit, but every time I see one, it's such a sigh of relief.

    Story time:

    Not so long ago, I was on that 4 or 5 lane autobahn before arriving to Munich. I was already dark, overtaking some car, leaving the most left line empty. Then these laser high beams basically illuminating the nearby Alps. I was thinking geez I'm doing 160, relax dude, you have a free lane here. I moved to the right, 2 lanes to my left are now free. Car flies by me, doing probably like 50-70 more than I, AND, AND this guy gets overtaken by another one with about the same speed difference relative to the guy doing 210-230.

  • boot: "you are in emergency mode"

    Jump

  • Well that was a problem in early '00. Lucky to have a PC at all. No internet at home and my freshly installed Mandrake, SUSE or whatever I was messing with booted to a black screen.

    I reinstalled Linux a lot back then.

  • Take what you have, start small and learn from it.

    Old laptops are great, because they have low power consumption and even pretty used up battery will give you power redundancy.

    Even a 10yo laptop is something with 4-5th gen Core cpu and that has plenty of power to get you started.

  • I was running a privacy oriented profiles on FireFox for years and kind of gave up recently.

    You lose a lot of functionality and still get singled out because of some random property that is unique to your system.

  • I am on the opposite end with the battery life. When I first had P3a, I was charging it maybe twice a week. Same experience with P6a.

    Now on P8, it seems a bit worse, but still I get easily 2 days from 80% battery.

    I'm embracing no play services on my main profile. In general I don't have any addictive apps(redreader was the worst) on the phone, so don't spend that much time on it.
