Are the headlines wildly different on a regional basis, or are you just doing your own thing with them?

Why do you do this? The drive-by spam/flurry of posts and account nukes? It’s beyond old. Please stop.

This is gonna be like how Putin stole a Superbowl ring isn’t it?

Hard to quantify it, so bear with me.

Not so much a specific genre or distribution medium as much as “the artist/band was born after 9/11”. Like, there are some bands that have been around forever and still putting out new stuff and that’s mostly fine (though I don’t necessarily like all of it) but anything overly electronic is basically a hard pass for me.

Oh yeah, I’m the same. It just gets rarer and rarer each year that I find something I can enjoy. Objectively, it has nothing to do with the quality of modern music (well, maybe a little lol) just the styles changing and my taste not keeping up.

Yeah, I did Docker swarm on an older cluster of thin clients I had ~10 years ago but even that was overkill. I’ve avoided Kubernetes for the same reason.

Government surplus auction. Had to get power supplies and SSDs for them separately but still less expensive than what most used ones go for elsewhere.

I’m now running 9 of the Dell equivalents to those, and they’re doing well. Average 15-20 watts at normal load and usually no more than 30-35 watts running full tilt. 5 of them are unprovisioned but I got a good deal on them for $25/each so I couldn’t pass them up :shrug:.

Attempting to cable-manage the power bricks for more than 1 of these is the worst part of using them. The only life pro tip I can offer is to ditch the power bricks and buy a 65W USB-C power delivery adapter that’s in the “wall wart” style and also one of the USB-C to Lenovo power adapter cords. Those make cable management so much better.

I would like to think so.

Most contemporary music sounds like shit. I try to stay current to at least within the last 3 years, but the older I get, the more it just sounds like shit.

South Park did an episode about it, and they were spot on.

The issues only impacted Mac users because macOS prevents certain applications from running if it doesn’t detect a valid Developer ID certificate, something that has affected other apps in the past.

Looks like it was the developer certificate required for it to run on MacOS that expired. Still inexcusable since Pepperidge Farm remembers when you configured peripherals through the driver options in the control panel.

My friends are all Ferengis as depicted in another comment here lol.

I don’t even know what else to add to this headline.

Nothing. Rule 4 here says the post title should match the headline. Don’t editorialize.

Good morning. How are you?

Fine, and you?

Technically that was two lies because I did not care how they were doing.

I built my first (and so far only) ebike in 2013. Thing was a death trap (did not upgrade the brakes 🤦‍♂️) but I loved it, and it was crazy fun to ride.

Lived too far to e-bike to work but would bring it with me to do around-town errands on breaks at work. Every time I had to park it outside to run into a store, I felt exactly like the meme. The battery alone was $700 sitting out in the open.

I really want Arm laptops to take off, but I also don’t want them “phone-ified” with bootloaders you either can’t unlock or have to jump through hoops and beg the manufacturer to provide an unlock code.

Tech reviews really need to start “benchmarking” device’s locked down-ness as well. I don’t care how well it crunches Pi or how long the battery lasts while streaming some brain rot from YT. I care about whether I can run Linux on it lol.

If anyone early adopts, be sure to try to install Linux on it and return it if you hit any artificial barriers; make sure to explain exactly why it’s being returned.

I downgraded from used enterprise gear to those ultra small form factor PCs. They sip power well enough on their own that I haven’t really bothered tuning anything. I suppose I could cap the frequency with cpufrequtils and set the governor to conservative rather than on-demand (I do this with my battery-powered RasPi projects) but I’m not sure how much difference that’ll make for my servers.

In the past, I had Docker Swarm setup and automation to collapse the swarm down to a single machine (powering the other ones down and back on with WoL) but that was more trouble than it was worth. On average load, the USFF PCs run at about 15 watts and don’t usually peak above 30 unless they’re rebooting or doing something very heavy. Even transcoding doesn’t break 20 watts since I’m using hardware acceleration.

The biggest power savings I found that was worth the effort was to just get rid of the enterprise gear, switch from VMs to Docker containers where possible, and get rid of stuff I’m not using (or only run it on-demand).

The only remaining enterprise power suck I have left is my managed switch. It’s a 2005-era dinosaur that’s loud and power hungry, but it’s been a workhorse I’m having a hard time parting with.

Looks like they banned you from the lemmy.zip instance only: https://lemmy.zip/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModBan&userId=16510340

When a federated account is banned from an instance, the backend also bans them from any community on the instance they’ve interacted with (including if you’ve just voted in them if I’m not mistaken).

Also, yes, admins can ban anyone on any community on their instance (but only locally if it’s a remote community). Ergo, a lemmy.zip admin can ban you from !asklemmy@lemmy.world on their instance, but you won’t be officially banned and other instances will see your content there while users on lemmy.zip will not.

More often than not: “OP deletes account and content, haha suckers”

Like you’re thinking: put HAProxy on your OpenWRT router.

That’s what I do. The HAProxy setup is kind of “dumb” L7 only (rather than HTTP/S) since I wanted all of my logic in the Nginx services. The main thing HAProxy does is, like you’re looking for, put the SPOF alongside the other unavoidable SPOF (router) and also wraps the requests in Proxy Protocol so the downstream Nginx services will have the correct client IP.

Flow is basically:

LAN/WAN/VPN -> HAProxy -> Two Nginx Instances -> Apps

With HAProxy in the router, it also lets me set internal DNS records for my apps to my router’s LAN IP.
