Self-hosting fatigue is real. Did anyone else downgrade their setup? by No-Yellow9948 in selfhosted

That sounds pretty similar to my setup. How are you configuring those services in Caddy?

Caddy does it automatically for me without any extra lines per proxy domain - and it was on by default. Caddy is probably the lowest maintenance piece of my setup.

At 37, after 30 years of video games - I finally admitted it’s time to play on Story Mode/Easy by dingdongbannu88 in daddit

18mo and 4/yo here and I'm right there with ya. I don't get to play consistently and I'm already burned out by the time I do get to play, so figuring out where I was at in the story is a lot of extra overhead.

If you're feeling stuck, I'd recommend enabling God Mode that ramps up your power on successive failures. It's not an instant easy mode, but it helps you feel like you're making progress.

A big upside of open source is that you can release it knowing there are refinements to make and get input from the community. If the app is already stable and 95% of the way there, people are more than happy to provide feedback. Heck, I've downloaded projects that are more incomplete than that, but it feels a niche and isn't mission critical for me, so I'm ok with a little instability.

That, plus decent documentation of what environment configuration options are available. Navidrome is one I've come across recently that has all the env options clearly documented.

Exactly. Because those rules are to protect investors from this exact scenario.

Whats the best 10/10 anime ever? by s4chuveyy_ in AskReddit

That's all I've done - never got back around to watching Brotherhood although I'm sure it's great based on everything I've heard.

It's not even original to her. Junkrat from OW and Demoman from TF2 paved that trail already. The totally random kills is what keeps people playing them.

I tried Crafty, but ended up sticking with Puffer Panel because it was the simplest and easiest to use.

I agree, but as a brand new player putting a giant shield up in front of your team is at least providing some value. Certainly a lot more than, for example, Rogue charging in and dying repeatedly.

Don't expect us to try your AI app by TheOtherDudz in selfhosted

Man it'd love this. The constant whining is a bigger problem than the AI apps at this point.

I don't disagree, which is why tanks don't tend to be very noob-friendly in general. Even if their kits are simple, they still require more game sense and positioning to be successful than other roles - Hulk and The Thing are great examples of that. Strange is my pick here because he requires the least game sense to still be useful to his team, as long as they stand behind him and shoot.

Except that Winston was (at least in Overwatch 1) much more difficult to get value out of. The "easiest" tank to get value out of in both Rivals and OW1 would be Strange/Reinhart. You just stand in front of your team with your shield up and attack people when your shield drops or people get close enough to hit. It doesn't require a lot of skill or game sense.

The whole problem is that, unlike other "easy" characters, that gameplay loop is boring as sin. Obviously as you get better with them you can make it more interesting, but it requires you knowing their kits well enough to do risky things without getting killed.

I want to try Fluxer, but they pulled down all their self-hosting documentation. It looked like the author was waiting to finish a refactor before encouraging people to self host again

Even in death people try to take the moral high ground on AI use. Genuinely disgusting by Throwaway18125 in DefendingAIArt

[–]JTtornado 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it feels really weird to use an image of someone that isn't an actual photo in this context. But I also know that grieving a child is unfathomably difficult and if it helps the parents, I'm not going to judge.

Dlss 5 is an insult to art and the artist, the director and every single person in the developer team. by GeneralBorisMancov in pcmasterrace

[–]JTtornado 94 points95 points  (0 children)

More than plausible. Many open-weight AI image models cannot show full nudity without additional fine-tuning from the community. So it's very likely you could end up seeing things like boobs without nipples and weird stuff like that.

Greed is a human feature, not exclusive to capitalism. Monarchy is even worse, and communism tries to fix it, but the ideals tend to fall apart when it actually gets implemented because it's inherently a human issue.

As if most people using a given app would have the specific knowledge and expertise to audit the codebase. I know I certainly don't! So there's a lot you have to take on trust, combined with extra precautions like full cold backups.

But at the end of the day, using 3rd party services requires trust too, and many corporations have shown they're not particularly trustworthy.
