Do you think it’s fair to say that one size does not fit all, so a giant list of self hosted options for people to choose from, is itself awesome?
The benefit of self hosting boils down to being able to make your own choices. Having a full list of options to choose from and make your own decision fits this community better (for better or worse) than someone else curating that thing for you.
This sort of school is great for adults already in the workplace. I (finally) received my degree the year I turned 40, from a school where the student receives class credit as soon as they can pass the final exam. I was already active in my industry, and was able to complete many courses without opening a book. For new topics, coursework was all self-paced and online, with professors available to answer questions most hours of the day.
I don’t think I would have finished my degree anywhere else.
Interesting! Well, hello from the north, where your picture has been my life for the last few months. I wonder if we’re about the same distance from the Equator.
Hi guys I’m looking for hosting own audio server. So far I have run Roon and Plex. Server I want to host is on remote machine and want to stream to iOS, Android TV and Desktop. Would be great if it also would let me organize my library (that part might also be separate app)
Roon is expensive, but if you are a serious music fan, it’s 100% worth it.
I describe it to others as like talking to a super knowledgeable music store employee. It knows so much about each track, each musician, each band… cross-referencing them all, so you can go down a rabbit hole of hyperlinks learning about the music. It seamlessly mixes playlists across streaming and locally stored music. It does a decent job of streaming around the house to Apple, android, and audiophile devices. They just added an app that enables remote listening to your locally stored music.
Nice - my new oven has an air frying mode, maybe I’ll give this a shot. Does anyone have any experience with how oven air frying compares to countertop units?

Recently lemmy.world and other big lemmy instances were compromised - attackers used an exploit to steal admin JWTs (json web tokens), and started changing settings and posting as admins. JWT is created when you log in, and is passed during all interactions to prove who you are.
To recover from the compromise, lemmy.world invalidated all the existing tokens and forced everyone to log in again. Unfortunately lemmy.world stopped trusting valid JWTs too, and apps all had some crazy behavior.
This was resolved as of Wednesday some time, I think.
My advice is to make sure your apps are all updated, and log out / back in to each of them. If it’s not resolved for you, try deleting and reinstalling the apps. If it’s still not resolved, search for a lemmy support community as another poster suggested.
Hello, This is my first website and I want some feedback from you guys. It’s very basic and I haven’t added much. just wanted to host something so I threw invidious and whoogle instance there.

The last top-40’s song I memorized after listening to it so many times was Mr Big, be with you. A basic unrequited love song without much depth. I was 14.
It was around that time that my neighbor introduced me to Nine Inch Nails,and changed the course of my musical taste forever.
For a long time I was very focused on just industrial, grunge, ska, and electronic. I eventually started expanding into prog-like music from across genres (complex melodies and instrumentation, but not just rock, ie newgrass, IDM).
Eventually I met my now-wife and, while she already shared much of my taste spectrum, she also listened to pop charting stuff, and over the years I opened back up to it. Some of its not bad if you give it a chance. Bruno Mars is a legend!
Okay so yesterday, I changed my password as a precaution because of the hack, and just now I decided to clean my browser tabs and re login and almost forgot my password. I’m done dealing with passwords....
It’s been a long time since I switched to 1Password, but I used to use keepass. I’m not sure whether keepass has a browser extension, but otherwise (if I recall) it checks your other boxes.
1Password is great, even though it’s not open source, and you get to a spot in life where $3/mo is feasible.

The use case I was wondering about is batch printing from a cloud solution. The print batch files could be encrypted, but I work with multiple solutions and I’m not confident that all of them encrypt those files. If it’s possible to crack old batches, that could expose sensitive information.
My idea is this: I just want to send to a server like this a request from my domain name and username, but I don’t want to run a full instance. Is this technically possible?
I mean this in the kindest way possible, but it’s clear you have no idea how server-based software works, like at all.
These patient people are being angels to you.
This sort of software is a very intricate web of programs talking to other copies of itself. You can install your own copy of the program, but a copy of the program is 100% required, even if it’s just you using it.
I would guess that the Zeiss prescription lenses for the Vision Pro will be at least $300-600 a pair, unless Apple is eating part of the cost given the already high price of the headset itself. — Mark Gurman (@markgurman) June 6, 2023
This is all I’m aware of, and it’s a guess. Personally I think every pair will need lenses, and if you have a prescription you get a specific set. If you don’t have a prescription, you get a generic set.
Every VR headset needs lenses, and if you have a prescription you get a set for your prescription. If you don’t have a prescription, you get a generic set.
They are magnetic, so sure they can be swapped out. Extra sets for other eyes will cost something.
Sure, what’s the issue here? The article doesn’t say Apple is charging anyone for the appointment. This sounds like a premium experience for prospective customers with $3500 to blow that might not want to figure all of the initial setup stuff out themselves.
They’ll take these opportunities to figure out how to make the self-service as smooth as possible, and start selling without an appointment once that’s been smoothed out.

I use resilio, which is a peer to peer storage based on BitTorrent. I don’t remember syncthing’s base protocol, but it sounds like it meets the same goals.
Resilio offers apps for my phone, NAS, Mac, pc, etc. For my phone I use selective sync for a few key folders instead of the whole thing.
These don’t get me location redundancy unless I tuck another device offsite. Most people don’t have 2 secure enough locations for this.
