I go to pornhub for the definite article

I played splinter cell chaos theory coop with some random on my steamdeck on a transatlantic flight a few months ago. Can highly recommend!

Assuming this hasn’t been adjusted for, possibly because it was bundled with the ps2 in a lot of places

Lots of people have been talking about products and tools. It’s docker, tailscale, cloudflare proxmox etc. These are important, but will likely come and go on a long enough timescale.

In terms of actual skills, there’s two that will dramatically decrease your headaches. Documention and backup planning. The problem with developing those skills is, to my knowledge, they’ve only ever been obtained through suffering. Trying to remember how to rebuild something when you built it 6 months ago is futile. Trying to recover borked data is brutal. There’s no fail-safe that you haven’t created, and there’s no history that you haven’t written. Fortunately, these are also the most transferable skills.

My advice is, jump in. Don’t hesitate. The chops in docker/linux/networking will come with use and familiarity. If it looks cool, do it. Make mistakes. You will rapidly realise what the problems with your set up are. You will gain knowledge in leaps and bounds from breaking a thing vs learning by rote or lesson. Reframe the headaches as a feature, not a bug - they’re highlighting holes in your understanding. They signpost the way to being a better tech, and a more stable production environment.

The greatest bit about self hosting for me is planning the next great leap forward, making it better, cleaner, more robust. Growing the confidence in your abilities to create a system you can trust. Honing your skills and toolset is the entirety of the excercise, so jump in, and don’t focus on any one thing to master or practice before hand!

Buying their 1 tb drives has been my prefered way to to do backup sync and distro hopping for a while now, with a $20 cradle, and a wallet of these things, you never have to leave anything behind.

Don’t forget the pro wall mount is $599

Imagine if in America, corporations were subject to the three strike rule

Doesn’t help the microsoft was playing chicken with the upcoming EOL for supported on-prem exchange. What are people even going to run on their vmware? /s

There is no trick. This will require active repragramming from you for months.

I couldn’t find a quit method that took the fight out of my addiction. You have to want to quit more than your addiction. That’s nice but doesn’t mean much.

I found in practice, this equates to action in meeting cravings with determination. Even if you don’t really feel it. You’re used to feeling anxious/angry/sad/sorry for yourself when you can’t have a cigarette. Take back that moment, that feeling. Redefine it. It’s a battle you’re choosing, and the best thing you can do is practice fighting it.

The plus side is, the battle will change as you fight it. So you won’t get bored!

The first two weeks are the hardest.

You already know the first fight, if you’ve ever had to wait for the shops to open to buy some cigarettes or tobacco. You’ve just got to raw dog that. It’s going to suck, but it will at least suck with purpose.

After about 4 days, I started getting spiky, intense cravings that passed after about 30 mins to an hour. Several times a day.

By week two, I only struggled when I was around smokers, saw it on tv, read about it, had a drink (it’s still hard).

There was a resurgence in cravings in month two. I felt I’d earned a puff or two. This is a trap. Notice it, it’s a useful trigger to double down on deciding not to smoke

I’m now a year in off of vaping and cigarettes. It’s still sometimes hard, but mostly I don’t think about it, except to be glad I don’t need to go for a smoke. I don’t miss things at parties anymore. I don’t miss moments with my daughter. Plane rides are way easier.

Yeah, and the toys sold at bad-dragon.com are plenty firm

Amen!

I was interested to know if that could work, supply wise.

According to these articles, the series x and the 5 pro aim to draw around 200W in-game.

USB-PD 3.1 (honestly, fuck the USB naming standard, seriously.) can allow for 240W draw.

So, kinda yeah?

Yeah, but how long until it doesn’t come with a power brick, and you have to supply your own?

I found a copy of 1995’s ‘Desktop Toys’ on archive.org, and ran it on linux with wine literally yesterday.

Windows 11 has an incompatability with 32 bit progams apparently.

I see your point, but I think we’re in better shape than you estimate.

That said, we could always be in bettar shape, and as more is created, the less complete archives can be.

I got a Slimbook executive 14 (spanish company), which is identical to Tuxedo’s infinity book pro 14.

Loving it so far! Not helpful on the vram front though.

The only thing that might do it ( assuming you want thin and light) would be a razer blade with a 3000 series nvidia they must be fully compatible with linux, otherwise their lambda labs tensorbook collaboration wouldn’t work.

Hell yeah. Every one of these threads makes me more inclined to read man pages

How does that work for broadcasts from your device, designed to prompt beacons from dorman aps you might have joined before? Once you join it provides a random mac, but before then?

I’m right there with you, but I also remember hearing that this time last decade.

I think I need this, finally a real use for ‘ai’.

The amount of how to videos you have to watch through, when all you want is one little piece of info you should be able to search or scan for has been a problem since before the internet figured out how to increase clicks by making a web page in to slides.

Can you link me a how-to video on how to get startedt and send me a summary from your working setup?
