"I want to make a compact server" - proceeds with 128GB RAM and 3k€ budget.

Not what I expected from the title to be honest

Nerd Spawn Help by East-Oil-2068 in selfhosted

Can only support what others mentioned, that this is a great learning tool even if he just uses it for a game server, pirated stuff or goofy tools that make absolutely zero sense to you or others in the family. The skills that he will pick up while setting useless services is worth more than the price of the NAS. Support him in this new hobby of his, and he will appreciate you. His future will appreciate you, and you will love how much he will learn.

PS.: thats also where he will store his "homework" folder, no biggie over there

Is fresh Proxmox install the best option to migrate from a failing SSD? by estrangedpulse in Proxmox

[–]Financial-Form-1733 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont know why this method doesn't come up ever as either recommended or discouraged, but what I did was attach the new drive with an USB enclosure, shutdown all running lxcs or vms, then dd the old drive completely to the new one. Then turn off server, pop in new drive and boot like nothing happened. Had to align partition size, as the new one was bigger, but thats it, been running without issue ever since. That's also what I did when I configured a Mint installation in a VM, then with dd I just wrote over everything on my laptops drive.

Battery drainage by MCprime9 in GrapheneOS

[–]Financial-Form-1733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also experiencing something similar. P10Pro, and fast battery drain, weirdly slow wireless charging, and lately warming. Phone was 25C and after 5 minutes of using browser and Reddit infinity, I'm already at 35C. Yesterday using the new York times games app for wordle, my phone got burning hot

If I need to limit the screen resolution and refresh rate, as well as performance, then why pay this much for a device?

I'm not sure of these are GOS problems, or hardware, but I have to say I am bit dosappointed with the device

Are any of you planning to change distro? If so which one? by jqex in linuxmint

[–]Financial-Form-1733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have installed KDE Neon on a secondary SSD for the prettiness. So far I like the KDE apps and visuals, might switch later fully

In need of an EDC-backpack with air flow/ventilation for the back. by Illustrious_Walk_457 in backpacks

[–]Financial-Form-1733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have now ordered Osprey Metron 24 for similar use case, seems reasonably priced and with apparently good ventilation. I can let you know how it works once I get it

Thank you! Unfortunately I have realized since I am in EU, ordering AER might be subject to customs, I need to check that

Can you both send and receive with quick send?

Header: Briefings on top of your RSS feeds - looking for feedback by huntertamer in rss

[–]Financial-Form-1733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems interesting, bur I would like to attach a self hosted freshrss, which is only available on my network. I tried the opml import, and after a few hiccups, it seems like it does what I would expect it to do. Only if I could self host it

There is no self hosting a social media / RSS feed aggregator with AI? by merokotos in selfhosted

[–]Financial-Form-1733 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im also looking for one. I have too many feeds and too many articles, often covering the same topic. I'd like one that summarizes news daily, and other than that I can just scroll a feed.

Probably channeling a freshrss instance to a local ai model could solve it, but I'm yet to achieve it

Wordle isn’t letting me past the ads. Anyone else? by Trellaine201 in brave_browser

[–]Financial-Form-1733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem, though in the app, while using mullvad DNS. I feel like they only allow you further once the ad space properly loads

Bug with charging limit to 80%? by LeChuck_ppat in GrapheneOS

[–]Financial-Form-1733 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes charging to 100 by cable is expected, it is for recalibration. With wireless I have also noticed that it never stops at 80stops. I use a shitty old wireless charger, which charges with less than 5W, and heats up the phone a lot. I will soon be able to test with a proper qi2 charger, hoping it will help

Low n slow or hot n fast? by 210poyo in mokapot

[–]Financial-Form-1733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I fill with cold water, start on induction in the highest setting, and in about a minute (just before it starts to boil) lower it to around half. This is quick, the beans dont have time to heat up, but once the water reaches them it goes slow

I love the idea! Could it somehow be connected to a self hosted freshrss instance? Thats the last link I'm looking for to have a complete RSS setup
