SeeJayEmm, to nostupidquestions in Is it worth paying the reaminder of my car loan off?

Not sure if you’re just telling us the amt or of you’re implying it’s too high/low. Sounds about right given the age and cost of your car, without knowing anything about you.

SeeJayEmm, to asklemmy in People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

This stuff is unbearable, I can’t even play video games on my laptop, because it warms up very fast and the keyboard becomes uncomfortable for me to use.

There’s a lot of good advice in here but I haven’t seen anyone tell you to just reduce the amount of heat being generated in your home. Almost every plugged in electrical device in your home is generating some amount of heat. Esp. if they’re in use.

So my suggestion to you is to flip off the power-strip or unplug unnecessary devices, and find something else to occupy your time. The consoles, PCs, the tv itself, they’re all hungry devices that generate a lot of heat. Those fans people are telling you to use? They generate heat too… so while I’m not saying, “don’t use a fan to stay cool”, I am saying, “don’t fill your home with running fans in rooms you aren’t in”.

This is good advice to follow even if you do have air conditioning. Keeping the heat out makes the AC work less. Maybe invest a nice set of thermal curtains.

SeeJayEmm, to nostupidquestions in Can I view a list of the communities of a lemmy instance while logged into my own?
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

@theothermatt_b discovered this yesterday and it 100% solves the problem. Just keep in mind that if you click through a link from here to a community that your home server is not yet aware of, you may get an error page. This is, unfortunately, normal and OK. Wait a moment for the behind the scenes federation work to complete and reload the page.

Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought suggesting liability only ins on a 3 year old car was a silly suggestion.

SeeJayEmm, to nostupidquestions in Why do most gaming laptops have vents on the bottom?
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Not to mention imaging using a laptop that vents hot air out the front.

SeeJayEmm, to asklemmy in What's the benefit of using Kbin over Lemmy?
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

This is the bottom half of the first page of my subscribed feed and I restarted my lemmy instance yesterday to make a config change.

SeeJayEmm, to linux in AlmaLinux makes its choice: The friendly fork
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

My last job we had RHEL on most of our linux boxes (it was a predominantly Windows shop). In the 8 years I was there I made use of the RHEL support we had once, about a kernel issue, that I never got any resolution or workarounds for.

At the time I pushed to phase them out for CentOS boxes to save costs but mostly wasn’t listened to.

@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

It’s still a bug. My server is at 0.18.2 and I regularly see old posts if I sort by Hot.

SeeJayEmm, to selfhosted in Pihole vs AdGuard Home
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

PiHole has everything you listed except the static dns via web ui. You need to add them to the hosts file.

I was warming up to post the gravity sync link before I got to your edit. I’ve been using it for at least a couple years and I’ve been happy.

SeeJayEmm, to selfhosted in Self hosting a Lemmy instance for just myself?
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Just make sure you keep regular backups of your data so you can spin it up somewhere else.

Also, people can crap all over Oracle (rightfully so), but I highly doubt they would kill the free tier one day w/o any warning at all.

I believe there are ways to prune the images store but I haven’t dug into that yet.

@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

It’s certainly been an adventure for me that’s mostly spurred me to learn about how to user/admin docker. (I need a project to dig into to learn things.)
