billygoat, to asklemmy in What is your record for number of hours on a single game?

I am still hurt by what Ubisoft did to Star Trek bridge crew. IMO it is one of the best vr games released, the game mechanics are perfect for vr.

billygoat, to support in Defederate/delete communities from FMHY lemmy instances?

Not sure what happened this time but last time it was due to loosing their domain. FMHY was the first instance I joined and is now the reason I self host.

billygoat, to selfhosted in [RANT] I pay $70/mo for this privilege

Let’s be real here, for a gas station Casey’s has damn good pizza.

billygoat, to technology in Beepy, a palm-sized Linux hacking playground

That’s what I was thinking. I don’t think I’ve seen them available in the last 3 months.

billygoat, to technology in Buyers of Bored Ape NFTs sue after digital apes turn out to be bad investment

Of course not, but what little I know of NFTs is they do the two things needed for that to be possible: one, ability to transfer ownership, and two, verify ownership.

I have no clue if NFTs are the best way to accomplish that, let alone even a good way, and people much smarter than me can figure that out.

In the end I don’t think it matters. For it to be viable it would require the big companies to adopt it, which I never see them accepting a legal way to do second hand sales of digital goods.

The one example I’ve heard that makes sense are NFTs to represent a purchase of digital games. This then allows the selling of digital keys second hand.

Other than that it all sounds like a scam.

billygoat, to programmerhumor in A broken clock fixed by taping a working one over it is a perfect metaphor for every project you'll encounter during your career.
billygoat, to news in Red Cross ends blood-donation restrictions that singled out gay and bisexual men

Person who lived in Europe in the early 90s here. Couldn’t give blood until earlier this year due to the Mad Cow restrictions.

billygoat, to selfhosted in Raspberry pi 4 inside abandoned scooters

That was my first thought, get a few of them and create yourself a scootermox cluster 😂

billygoat, to technology in Comcast, Centurylink Fail To Derail Community-Owned Gigabit Fiber Network In Bountiful, Utah

Good! The only reason I am able to have affordable fast internet is due to having 3 real high speed options: google fiber(5gb max), att fiber(2gb max), and spectrum(1gb max). If only one of those existed at my location I would bet I would have worse service at a higher price.

billygoat, to selfhosted in Moving my Blog off of Linode and back Home (Sort of)

+1 this. I went further and have a 3 node proxmox cluster with a mix of beelink and minisforum pcs. If I find that I need more cpu power I can add another node to the cluster and drop the weakest link and proxmox handles moving all the vms/lxcs

At $50 a month using cloud services you could buy a very beefy mini pc but that also means you have to manage it. I’d say that it took about a month of setting up everything to get to a point where I only log into proxmox ~1-2 times a month.

billygoat, to selfhosted in Hello, World!

Thank you for the info. I set my instance up yesterday as well and my goal today was to do this.
