I see why you would be working as an electrician.

JK, I’m the same way. I’m fast and good at my job and that’s why I’m not cheap.

Betting on Nvidia to not hop on the enshittification train seems like a supremely bad decision at this point in time

I gave up on 343 more than a decade ago. Halo died the moment Bungie stepped away from it

It’s always been that way. Even most people who used the internet “way back when” have no clue how it actually functions. Terms like DNS and IPv4 are vaguely familiar concepts at best outside of professional or hobbyist circles.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with that either. There’s too much stuff for any one person to know. You learn the stuff that interests you and ignore the rest, which hopefully means somebody is interested in all of it. That’s why it’s good that there’s all different kinds of people out there.

I do, but unfortunately the dog just refuses to shit on the wall

In this case… I’ll allow it

There’s petabytes of free porn on the internet and yet tons of weirdos pay for subscriptions to porn sites. Such is life

It would be faster to list the things she hasn’t done to me

Dan said he’s looking for a gf. I’m sure Will is nice but he’s not invited

Nice, I like your points and your style

I’m interested

I use a pic of your wife’s pussy too

That’s overly dramatic phrasing and you know it. Adding this kind of hyper technical quip to a thread aimed at beginners is insane. Stop doing that.

Look into docker containers in general. If I was going to start from scratch in your position this is what I’d do:

Install a Linux distribution on the computer you plan to use for self hosting. I found Debian with the KDE plasma desktop environment to be pretty familiar coming from Windows. You could technically do most of this on Windows but imo self hosting is pretty much the only thing that a casual user would find better supported through Linux than Windows. The tools are made for people who want to do things themselves and those kinds of people tend to use Linux.

Once you have a Linux distribution installed, get docker set up. Once docker is set up, install portainer as your first docker container. The steps above require some command line work, which may or may not be intimidating for you, but once you have portainer functional you will have a GUI for docker that is easier to use than CLI for most people.

From this point you can find the docker installation instructions for any service you want to run. Docker containers have all the required dependencies of a given service packaged together nicely so deploying new services is super easy once you get the hang of it. You basically just have to define where the container should store it’s data and what web port you want to access the service on. The rest is preconfigured for you by the people who created the container.

There’s certainly more to be said on this topic, some of which you would likely want to look into before you deploy something your whole family will be using (storage setup and backup capability, virtual machines to segregate services, remote accessibility, security, etc). However, the above is really all you need to get to the point where you can deploy pretty much anything you’d like on your local network. The rest is more about best practices and saving yourself headaches when something breaks than it is about functionality.

I hope I’m there already. If I’m not then I’m not being vocal enough about how much I despise the current US government

That really will be the perfect repost when he dies and MAGA inevitably tries to call out everyone celebrating as disrespectful

That lip bite really sells the idea that he wants to fuck those noodles

Windows was less shitty in the 90s too

More like the OG “shiny is better” users

CEOs have all sounded the same for years now. Add in LLM talking points regularly and they all sound like robots with a broken speech unit
