peter,

Finally someone that get’s it

peter,

I replaced my old Intel Core i7 HP ProLiant server with an Odroid M1 (ARM Based) and it consumes 2 watts compared to 72 that the Intel Server did.

The only thing I can’t do with it is my Minecraft server, it runs all else perfectly. Even the Lemmy instance of this account is powered by the same server! And what’s more it basically runs for free, as solar generates enough power for the server to consume, even when it’s cloudy.

Yes, I believe Intel should be afraid.

peter,

I wish the Pinebook Pro was updated cause I’d give that a shot. Or better, an ARM powered Framework laptop

peter,

Yeah it’s mostly performance related. I have like 10 different websites running all at once, and while CPU and RAM aren’t 100% all the time, with a heavy load I don’t have enough free to do it

peter,

The server was a second hand server that has 32GB RAM and 2 i7 CPU’s, it was made in 2015 so quite old. The Odroid has only 8GB of RAM but for my purposes that’s enough, and given the power it saves it’s absolutely a bargain!

If I ever need this much memory again I can just temporarily spin up something more powerful, for all other 24/7 tasks I can keep up the efficient ARM server.

peter,

Yeah makes sense! It probably doesn’t although I have no benchmarks to prove it, it just is enough for me. I know this much though: even if the x86 server had the same specs (ram, GHz) as the arm version it likely still draws more power

peter,

Nice, cool to see more people have an arm Lemmy instance

peter,

Hey lovely ethanol - thanks!!, I’ll let him know! He’s not on Lemmy (should I ask him to make an account? >~>)

peter,

Wow! So magical

peter,

I don’t know why Lemmy did that. I used the cross post function (which links to lemmy.emerald.show/post/204827). Do you know how to fix that?

And I wish everyone had dreams like this! It’s very enriching.

peter,

D-did you suceed in making your butt bigger? If so, I’d consider it a success!

peter,

That’s pretty cool, and I think that makes your fursona very personal and meaningful to you!

peter,

Oh that’s cool! I think it’s very nice you can feel things you can’t normally feel irl.

peter,

We need a starterpacks community!

Did we kill Linux's killer feature?

A few years ago we were able to upgrade everything (OS and Apps) using a single command. I remember this was something we boasted about when talking to Windows and Mac fans. It was such an amazing feature. Something that users of proprietary systems hadn’t even heard about. We had this on desktops before things like Apple’s...

peter,

I actually like Flatpaks… I use dpkg/apt-get for system packages that cannot be installed in userspace, and flatpaks for desktop apps / games. Many distro’s have unified ways to update them anyway (at least VanillaOS has)

peter,

Thanks!!! I’m currently working on an update on a 3D printer mod, but I got an emergency at home related to power outage so yeah… bit distracted

peter,

I think hed be pretty happy with that! That 13% may be less, but its all from 1 manufacturer or brand. They dont need to share a piece of the pie!

peter,

I did the same thing. I still am on social media such as lemmy and discord but its mostly to talk to people. And I havent watched the news since I was a child. Important things come your way eventually and I dont see it as being ignorant. Now I only receive information I can actually do something about if I want to.

peter,

Thanks I didn’t know that, I’ll update the Readme to add this!

peter,

Yeah I agree, but in my case I really wanted my posts to lemmy as I often look back at them and since reddit is now blocking third party apps its basically useless. That’s why I wanted to move my posts over!

peter,

It shows a top part in the post with original date and a perma link to said post like here: lemmy.emerald.show/post/764

peter,

I totally agree, I just wanted to keep my posts because they mean a lot to me, I used it on my own community which at the time was empty as I just moved to lemmy.

I was a bit excited after making this, and will update the Readme with a word of warning!

peter,

It will keep the current date due to users not being able to override a timestamp, but the top part of a post shows the original date and link to the original post: lemmy.emerald.show/post/764

peter,

I updated the README to add a similar warning, thanks! github.com/…/91b3ecb9f1f8e270e76057c85b8a7f754023…

peter,

Thanks! I also felt it was the most ethical thing to do. This way you can refer to any comments made to your post, but we don’t copy comments over ourselves (which potentially can violate users privacy if they don’t want their comments to leave Reddit)

peter,

I want to be a good citizen here so if there’s anything else I can help with let me know

peter,

It was an idea indeed. Like a daily post per user, or even go as far as to synchronize it across users (so each user has a moment to post a new post). This is interesting, and I’m thinking about how to do it!
