I’ve been using the original m1 running a lineage OS based android TV for a couple years. It’s perfect. I added a nvme drive for a “DVR” in tivimate, but we rarely use it. I use a cheapo 2.4ghz remote from Amazon.
I had to hunt for it. Meta threads and activitypub. I remember a big hullabaloo about it a while back.
Hmm. My uneducated guess is maybe increased resources needed for federation? I’m sure lemmy.world is still growing at a steady clip. Are we federated with the meta thing?
Whatever you did is working. I have no more issues.
What is driving the increased demand for resources?
Your approach works too. Something like CasaOS answers OP’s question directly. I was thinking about how I started on this journey. I wanted to play with enterprise level tools at home on repurposed e-waste. So I started with proxmox. But I also came to the table with a couple decades of Linux experience under my belt.
Those scripts make it so easy. You can paste a command, accept defaults, watch some text scroll by and finish with instructions on how to access the tool you just installed.
My homelab is low power as well. I’m currently running zero VMs. Everything is done with LXCs. You can run a pi hole on 512 MB RAM.
My wife and I go through hot & cold spells. I think we have similar drives, but our timing doesn’t always match up. I’m more of a “harness the power of the morning wood” sort of fellow. She’s more of a “I want it right now but he’s still at work” sort of gal. We both talk a big game, but work, childcare and adulting conspire against us.
I used to be an a friend’s planning exchange for sharing Disney plus. But he booted me after I kept putting weird shit on his family calendar.
“Wash that thing on your back that’s hard to reach and puts out a putrid smell.”
“Soak feet in melted butter.”
I’ve been a premium member since then. I’ve been watching the battle with ad blockers from the sidelines.
Who is winning that battle? This will inform my next move.
Step 1: Install proxmox
Step 2: run the post install script here, disable anything enterprise, test or related to high availability.
Step 3: check out the other scripts on the link. I suggest starting with a pi hole and experimenting from there.
I’ve been daily driving Linux since the early 00s and docker confounds me too, especially the networking. I’m not familiar with bottles. I just play all my games on steam and it’s seamless.
Sorry, the sort of individualism you speak of only applies to opting out of vaccines and praying to jeebus in the classroom.
I’m a regular ass taxpayer trying to feed my family. I do what I can to protect privacy. I use a VPN, self host whatever I can, shit like that. I can’t stop driving to work so I can avoid cameras.
I take RTFM more broadly to mean that I at least put in some effort to solve the problem myself. I googled, checked forum posts, read the man page, opened a config file or two and read some comments, etc. So I get offended when I get RTFM’d.
If you can’t reply without being a dick, then keep scrolling! Why participate in a forum where people with less experiece ask questions in the first place? That time could be better spent reading your shop vac manual or figuring out who you need to blow to save $700 on a dishwasher repair.
OP may be a master of RTFM, but they clearly didn’t read through that passage before posting. Blowing the technician is a good way to save money, but maybe not the best way to learn.
Slackware current.
This isn’t a troll. I use it to game on my dual core pentium lovingly dubbed ‘the craptop’. And I use it to game on my mid-tier gaming PC.
Did you forget to convert back to USD and the number is just higher?
I’ve been a slackware user since the late 90s. I take for granted how easy it is to install today. I’ve been tinkering with a socket 7 build, and nothing is easy. Installing slackware 8 is a pain in the ass. I can’t even get half my hardware working on win95! It’s not like riding a bicycle.
You can sandbox play store apps right?
Well now they can spend a billion rebuilding with very little of their own money. Socialism for me, not for thee.
I’ve been wanting to get matrix up for my family and friends to chat with my 6 year old on her tablet. I found nextcloud talk to do all the things I wanted with none of the hassle. My daughter is a ridiculous texter.
