Unless your computer is exposed directly to the internet, your router’s firewall should be enough. Fedora typically has SELinux and AppArmor enabled by default which should protect from something nasty executing on your machine.
Don’t execute things as root if you don’t know what it is and you should be fine.
A level 0 master scheduled part is a form of blow-through part that forecasts at a high level among products of a similar design and can be disaggregated to level 1 and netted against actual demands to yield supply proposals within the planning time fence.
Really pleased with the Sony Xperia 1 V. It’s made out of this really nice grippy material and I’m getting 2 to 3 days on a full charge. Great camera too, and it’s basically stock Android.
Also kind of nitpicky on my end, but I would like to at least have the option for H.265 support. I know they can’t include it OOTB, but I can’t even buy a license compatible with FF.
Syncing 2 different sets of extensions, bookmarks and browsing history across devices reliably. I wish it did work, I hate running Edge on Linux. Even regular Firefox profile sync is kinda flaky for me though.
The profile manager isn’t available on mobile, at least I couldn’t find it or switch accounts without completely signing out. Checks all the boxes for me on desktop though.
I travel a lot for work and stream Plex. All my media is in HEVC and I dont want to have to buy a video card for the server just so I can transcode it to Firefox when everything else can play HEVC out of the box.
So far my experience with Nextcloud has been that it is a pain in the arse to install, and once it’s installed is slow as anything. Literally couldn’t run it on my pi 3b, now got it up and running pretty nicely on a NUC but it’s still not great. Have caching set up....
Pydio and Seafile are alternatives I’ve tried. Pydio was pretty fast too. I agree with you on Nextcloud, I want to like it but I inevitably start having issues and it’s slow even after tuning. It just tries to do too much and shouldn’t be that complex to spin up a file server.
I skimmed through their privacy policy and I’m not confident Mozilla would approve. They can share the telemetry that comes from your car, including it’s physical location.
For me it’s probably Jazzpunk, but I liked Disco Elysium too. I’ve been looking for something to scratch that “Jazzpunk surrealist comedy itch” for a while and not many games have come even close.
My main server is named Postulate (an idea that you assume for the sake of argument), my desktop is named Axiom (a proved postulate), and my backup server is named Corollary (an idea that follows from an axiom)....
I find I can’t get into them if I physically play them on PC. One look and I get the “potato graphics” feeling and start increasing AA, texture packs, etc. Now if I stream it to my TV or phone, it’s like “oh okay this is normal for this thing” and it tricks my brain to not caring.
I’ve noticed in the Linux community whenever someone asks for a recommendation on a laptop that runs Linux the answer is always “Get a Thinkpad” yet Lenovo doesn’t seem to be a big Linux contributor or ally. There’s also at least six Linux/FOSS-oriented computer manufacturers now:...
I bought a System76 Pangolin 11, then replaced it with a ThinkPad X13 within a few months because the battery life was trash. Total workhorse but it would die on me in meetings if I was sharing my screen.
Something a Gentoo user might care about is the distro’s compile time options. Ubuntu uses -O2 and LTO, Debian uses -O1. Debian has always been noticably slower overall for me.
Don’t do what I did and go with Tumbleweed. It gets more updates than Arch.
I will need to get a laptop in the foreseeable future, and I really want to stick to Linux. However, I may need to be out-of-home for 12+ hours straight in a day. After some research, it seems people are generally not that impressed with battery life on Linux?...
I have a System76 Pangolin 11 with the Ryzen 7 and the battery life is trash. It would die on me during meetings from a full charge if I was sharing my screen. Not blaming System76 on this one, its probably the AMD chipset all things considered.
Replaced it with the Thinkpad X13 Gen 2 and love it. Easily gets 8 to 10 hours on OpenSUSE, and everything just works.
Anyone else have it ? The more work I do setting things up like dockers, reverse proxies, single sign on, etc. the more I want to do it. But I’m running out of ideas of things to host that would actually benefit me. But I have that itch where I want more lol....
I try to find ways to make my setup more bulletproof or faster whenever I get the itch. As an example, I recently switched to OpenSUSE and Podman to take advantage of the LTO optimized packages and rootless containers.
I tried to run my online life through self hosting but I found a lot of the services weren’t reliable or capable enough to get real work done. So I went from 30 containers to about 7 and have a lot less to tinker with.
No just LTO. Right now only Ubuntu, Fedora and SUSE Tumbleweed turn it on by default.
I’ve rebased a few of my containers with SUSE and noticed some improved load times on my web services as well. I don’t run anything demanding either, just bored. It’s like half a second improvement lol.
Hello everyone. I’m going to build a new PC soon and I’m trying to maximize its reliability all I can. I’m using Debian Bookworm. I have a 1TB M2 SSD to boot on and a 4TB SATA SSD for storage. My goal is for the computer to last at least 10 years. It’s for personal use and work, playing games, making games, programming,...
Great! A relatively recent development is dist-kernel and has greatly simplified kernel installation.
I’ve been running a server with the same Gentoo install since 2016, still stable as ever. Using OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on the desktop though, really liking it so far.
Getting GPU acceleration working is a common task for those of us running Plex or Jellyfin. There is not much documentation for getting the NVIDIA container stack to work with Podman, even less on Gentoo, plus there have been a lot of changes to NVIDIA’s container toolkit lately....
Agree, I really wanted netavark to work - it definitely seems like the way forward. I enabled it and out of the box none of my containers could resolve DNS, even though aardvark was running. It’s so new I wasn’t sure where to poke around, so I went with the legacy method.
I’ll try again once it stabilizes in Gentoo, somebody else noticed netavark should be the default now and opened a bug with the maintainer.
As I understand it, it bind-mounts the /dev/nvidia devices and the CUDA toolkit binaries inside the container, giving it direct access just as if it was running on the host. It’s not virtualized, just running under a different namespace so the VRAM is still being managed by the host driver. I would think the same restrictions exist in containers that would apply for running CUDA applications normally on the host. Personally I’ve had up to 4 containers run GPU processes at the same time on 1 card.
And yes, Nvidia hosts it’s own GPU accelerated container images for PyTorch, Tensorflow and a bunch of others on the NGC. They also have images with the full CUDA SDK on their dockerhub.
Bitwarden actually. I was really split on this but ultimately I trust Bitwarden, the company, to run a secure server than myself.
Who has time to track CVE’s and react to them in a timely manner? I don’t. If something happened, I probably don’t have the infrastructure or know-how to even realize I had been breached.
I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.
Base building. Fortifying against enemies and being creative is a blast.
Exploration and big worlds. Games like Borderlands, Fallout and Far Cry with unique environments and ambiance.
Hate:
Escort missions. After all these years they’re still not fun.
Excessive health bars. Having to carry several different kinds of potions, etc. One of my favorite games is Dark Cloud for the PS2, but I think it had health, mana, weapon health, thirst and effects like poison that never cleared until you took a certain potion. I believe I used a GameShark or similar to get rid of thirst and weapon health.
