I got this same email. Of course the only domains I own are .com and .xyz. Going to lock in as many years as I can before September.
I finally started looking into emulating on my phone, so I’ve been playing some games from my childhood. Mostly Alleyway and Pokemon Red, with a little Harvest Moon thrown in.
I’ve been selfhosting for almost a year, and I’m still on the lookout for anything I can host.
I’ve reached a point where if I don’t have a use for something, i’ll still try to make an unraid template if there isn’t one. Just to install it and try it out. Lol
I want that router, but I don’t have a good reason to give my wife why our RB4011 needs to be upgraded…lol
Extremely simple! It’s literally just a few screws and unplug the old one and put in the new. Took all of 10 minutes and at least half of that was trying to find my small screwdriver bits. Lol
My use case sounds similar to yours, so I’d second the T480. I got one 7-8 months ago, and it’s been great so far. Only thing I changed was I put in a backlit keyboard.
I don’t know any general laptop communities. At leasr not ones with any activity, but !thinkpad@lemmy.ml seems relatively active.
If you ever need to find a community, https://lemmyverse.net/communities is a decent place to start.
I’ve got a Mikrotik RB4011, and I couldn’t be happier with it. It definitely has a learning curve, but once I got it setup how I want, it just works. I’m sure some other options have the same feature, but one of my favorite things is a script I have run every night that emails me a backup.
I’ve only ever had to use it a few times, but having a recent backup of my router on hand all the time is nice.
This is the exact setup I use and it works great!
Yes, I haven’t come across any apps so far that didn’t work. Performance is an issue with some apps, but nothing major.
I have the Leaf 2 and like it a lot. Can be a little slow sometimes, but nothing worse than any other ereader I’ve used.
Those are the two I switch between too. I slightly prefer homepage, but you can’t go wrong with either one.
It’s VNC, but it’s included in the docker image I use, so nothing extra other than adding authentication in front of it.
How is performance now? I moved away from it a year or so ago because the performance was pretty bad on my system, even with an external database.
I host a copy of Obsidian on my server, and I can access it through a reverse proxy. There isn’t any authentication though, so you have to use something like Authelia.
Thanks for this link! I’m on Vultr, which is good, but it’s around $7 a month with only 25GB of storage. Think I’ll pick up one of the Ethernet Servers deals.
I host it on a VPS since I was hesitant about having something like this hosted at home. As far as spinning it up, it was relatively straightforward using the docker instructions (https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/install_docker.html).
I ran into some issues with the postfix container not being able to send emails, but it turned out I just needed to ask my VPS provider to unblock port 25 for SMTP.
Nice! Just me on my instance too. The only downside I’ve found so far is that I have to discover new communities in my own since there is no one else to populate “All”.
Small price to pay to have control over my instance though.
Hey, thanks for doing that! I, unfortunately, didn’t think about people that would need to use screen readers or the like. Next time I’ll wait until I’m at a computer to type it out.
I’ve only played a couple hours so far. I just thought I hadn’t figured out how to access the maps not that they didn’t exist…
