It’s more about it being a Marxist Leninist instance lol

I have to admit - coming from a lemmy.ml user, this made me chuckle.

It was self-fulfilling for me. I started self-hosting and messing with networking before I went into IT. I thought I’d be in a very different field until ~10 years ago.

Neither of your statements are antithetical to mine.

The F stands for “free” as in “freedom”, not “free beer”.

Swipe it up rather than sideways

Yah bUt TaXEs HiGH

Edit: didn’t think I needed the /s

Never doing video calls, I suppose?

I’m curious what made it that complicated. Was the Synology OS (DSM they call it right?) fighting you along every step or something? As far as I know it’s a custom Linux OS but I have no idea what it’s based on, or if it’s even based on a specific distribution… I could definitely see it being a challenge depending on the answers haha.

Eh, I just generally avoid Nvidia on Linux hosts unless I specifically need it. Their driver situation is better than it was, but still sucks.

Pretty much the only thing I use Tailscale for is remotely SSHing from my phone to my home NAS, and they definitely don’t manage my keys. They do have a “Tailscale SSH” feature I don’t use…

If it wasn’t that it’s Nvidia and that you bought this specifically for Linux, I’d have told you to keep the Nvidia, as you did get a significantly better card for the price you paid.

Organized is a really big word to describe what essentially amounts to hiding shit out of my eyesight in some sort of organization I’ll forget the sense of in a matter of days, until I need it again and have to open all the bins to find everything again anyway. But like some other people here, I use hardware organizers for the small stuff like tools and brushes, and larger bins for things like my soldering gear, helping hands, etc.

I’m just having trouble calling that an “audit”.

I won’t lie, I’m a bit curious why someone asked someone who has never performed an audit to perform one, what they’re actually hoping to find, and what they plan on doing with the results…

What’s wrong with alternatives?

My deluge server been reliably running behind gluetun for almost a year and a half now. It’s pretty damn great indeed.

Naming is really hard, I can’t blame you haha. I never had to name public facing things, at work I usually advocate for either really straightforward descriptive names or just having fun on a theme (e.g. we had classical music based stuff at one place, like Orchestra, Sonata, Symphony, and pop culture/nerdy stuff at another like Marvel heroes or SW characters, etc). Coming up with a name that’s marketable, discoverable and searchable sounds like a nightmare lol

The practice of calling a product “FooBar X”, unless it’s literally your version 10 that you just happen to be marketing in Roman numerals, feels a bit like those businesses that named themselves “Plumbing 2000”, it’s a bit tacky and doesn’t tend to age well IMHO. But hey, it’s not like it’d be the first software with a slightly kitsch name I use either lol

It’s not so much opposition rather than other BSDs having almost negligible desktop presence… If we really want to get into semantics, too, Linux is technically not UNIX.
