John Green would be rolling in his grave if he were dead

Have you seen the ai girlfriends/boyfriends communities? I genuinely think the rate of chatgpt induced psychosis is really high, even if it doesn’t lead to death

All Google would have to do is check what key an app is using on a user’s device and they can invalidate it. Someone made a youtube vanced 2 (not revanced)? Google can easily invalidate it for everyone using this process.

Even if I misunderstand how the key works and it’s more of a signature, it would mean that if you try to download an older app then it could fail bc the signature expired and isn’t maintained anymore. You also run into the same issue with not being renewed if Google chooses.

My point is it could effectively be a side loading killer, maybe not right away but the point of sideloading is the independence which this takes away

Depending on the services, you should be able to make a backup and restore without needing to delete the real version until you’re sure everything is working

As someone who also started proxmox fairly recently, I found that the community has these really cool scripts that you can use to get started. Obviously you’re running bash scripts on your main node for some, so there are risks involved with that but in my experience it’s been great.

I’ll share my experience with my very unprofessional but working setup.

I have two locations, both using retired PCs. I don’t need anything fancy, but some considerations could be GPU/encoding hardware if you wanted something like jellyfin/Plex. I use proxmox and proxmox backup server for managing everything and so far it’s been working well. Definitely not plug and play like an aio nas but that’s because a nas wasn’t my only goal as I needed cameras (frigate) and homeassistant.

I would highly recommend headscale/tailscale (as others have suggested) as it “just works” when setup in my experience. This enables safe remote access without opening any ports on your families networks so you can troubleshoot if something did break.

Regardless of which solution you decide to use, the most important part about having a backup is testing. If you can’t see when your backups fail or don’t know how to recover you may as well not have a backup.

It’s complicated, Linus at home wants the baby easy setup that just works, and in his mind Linux will only meet that need for him once steamos is out. He accidentally nuked his pop_os! installation setup if that tells you how software illiterate he can be sometimes.

There team is very different in opinions and it’s not uncommon for them to be making an amazing server build that’s clearly on linux. They use MacOS for their video editors. It’s just more complicated than any one sentence can boil it down to.

I use headscale and it’s been working wonderfully for my nightly offsite backups and remote access.

A bunch of Haywood banks songs for sure

I need a gif of a tungsten cube dropping from the top shelf of a vending machine and folding it in on itself

Yeah, I used to cry constantly as a kid and got so self conscious about it, thinking it’s not something to do as a man or wtv. Now it’s basically impossible to cry when I need it, extremely frustrating

I was 7-3 in highschool, it sucked lmao

What interface is that, it looks great!

According to my shitty calculator it’s 2,147,483,647.

As the old saying goes, never underestimate the bandwidth of a truck full of hard drives barreling down the highway migrating pigeons with a SSD in claw.

Is there a special mode where being an American is a disease? Because it would explain why the US wants Greenland so bad

My phone’s name is “Samsung Smart Fridge™” because I think it’s hilarious if someone is looking at hotspots or network info and go “what the hell is a fridge doing here-”
