This is important. I dunno about scale, but backups. I started out hosting a chat room on a raspberry pi. It was a fun side project. But then, that became where my friends all hung out. That was the place, so it became important to me. And then the SD card got corrupted. I then moved on to a consumer laptop. It was way more stable, much faster. But if I messed up anything about the installation, I was hosed.

I very highly suggest using Proxmox, like you say, and setting up automatic backups. And occasionally transfer them to a hard drive. It doesn’t matter what kind of virtual CPUs or services you install, gedaliyah@lemmy.world, as long as you have a plan for when something you host becomes important to you and you lose it.

Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.

The problems I’ve had with my RPis have all revolved around the fragility of their SD storage. I got burned one too many times trying to host something important in my house with these things, just for them to get corrupted and lose everything. Backing up these systems was its own nightmare, which failed as much as it succeeded.

Come on man, use some critical thinking and context here. He clearly is not saying that cars some kind of an issue here. He was making an idle point about traffic jams in the US with hurricane evacuations and how that doesn’t apply in this situation. He’s not even making a value judgement on anything here.

And the article is making the case explicitly that this is bad. He is saying that 9/11 brought about terrible actions from us and that we should learn lessons and not repeat our mistakes. He’s actually trying to convince the reader that we should not “swallow” another genocide.

You keep describing it as jingoistic and the author didn’t claim or even appear to be heavily nationalistic and in fact appeared quite the opposite.

…did you read the post? It feels like you did not read the content of the post.

I think we just have to accept that marketing has to dumb down and generalize for the mass market.

So they’re using our data and also getting paid for it

Yeah? Isn’t that the point of paying for a music service? I pay, they give me access to music and curate it in a way that would be enjoyable to me. How could they do that without some information about me? This is a prime example of what a company should use your data for.

This logic is really sending me, man.

If it’s a neural network doing it, then that’s fine.

Windows can run all games

Tell that to some of the games I want to play. Splinter Cell - Blacklist, I’m looking at you.

From all the war stories you see online, they don’t have that much to lose.

Doesn’t seem like he was implying anything. Just stating the fact that part of the burden of citizenship is sometimes having to interact with law enforcement, maybe even go to trial, even if you’ve done nothing wrong.

I’m no closer to understanding how the original meme is so out of date.

1. Happy to help. Not sure what the year has to do with the meme, tho.

This is how I imagine China and North Korea in international relations.

The fact that Elon is about to go bankrupt.

Is this a verifiable fact? No. But this fella makes a convincing argument.

Honestly, yes I am.

When when does what Americans want actually effect what America does? Not holding my breath.

this is true. i lived in a very red state for most my life, and always felt my vote didn’t matter. i went through the motions of voting, but didn’t feel i would have a real impact. i did it because i felt a sense of civic duty, but I’m a white cis dude so i didn’t feel the effects like someone else might so i cant blame them if they don’t feel that same sense of duty.
