looks like crypto bullshit

What? You need to give us context before you criticize something. I have no clue what you’re on about.

He stated that the company was in the “early stages” of creating the device, which is still years away from a possible launch.

Sounds like it’s not a real thing yet, in my opinion. Companies as big as Sony are always “exploring” new products, that doesn’t mean they’ll be real. For the record, I love my Steam Deck, and I hope the portable market expands. But this isn’t real news, IMO.

I like to keep one of these tucked away: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/logitech-k400-plus-tkl-wireless-membrane-keyboard-for-pc-tv-laptop-tablet-with-built-in-touchpad-black/7575039.p

Yeah, they probably just guessed his Google Drive password lol

If you want a no-code solution, I recently created a homepage using GrapesJS (for free). I’m hosting it on Cloudflare Pages (for free). The whole setup was dead simple and almost completely free, I’m only paying for the domain.

EDIT: oops, that isn’t technically self-hosted…but GrapesJS is a very cool tool for building a simple HTML website. Just make it looks like you want and it’ll spit out all the files you need for hosting wherever your heart desires. Caddy, GitHub, whatever.

That’s annoying. If you can’t turn the fan off, then I think you need to look for convection oven recipes specifically. But I think they’re not too hard to find.

…but Apple started making performance ARM chips 4 years ago

I’m not expert, but I can tell you that Apple Silicon gave the new Macbooks insane battery life, and they run a lot cooler with less overheating. Intel really fucked up the processors in the 2015-2019 Macbooks, especially the higher-spec i7 and i9 variants. Those things overheat constantly. All Intel did was take existing architectures and raise the clock speeds. Apple really exposed Intel’s laziness by releasing processors that were just as performant in quick tasks, they REALLY kicked Intel’s ass in sustained workloads, not because they were faster on paper, but simply because they didn’t have to thermal throttle after 2 minutes of work. Hell, the Macbook Air doesn’t even have any active cooling!

I’m not saying these Snapdragon chips will do exactly the same thing for Windows PC’s, obviously we can’t say that for sure yet. But if they do, it will be fucking awesome for end users.

IT here: you’re all insane. Outlook is a dumpster fire, Outlook for Mac is a slightly prettier dumpster fire. The idea of locally syncing emails in 2024 is laughable, a web browser is exactly where you should view your emails.

Looks like a project that utilizes coqui-AI: https://github.com/coqui-ai/TTS

Nintendo’s execs calling Boeing’s execs: “Hey, can you refer us to your…fixers? You know…rhymes with shmassassin…yeah you know, those guys.”

Reddit is still pretty useful, but it will become less and less relevant as contributors leave, just like StackOverflow did. Side note: are contributors actually leaving Reddit? People keep saying that’s happening, but I don’t really see it…maybe it’s very slow? Might depend heavily on the subreddit too.

If your budget is $150, then you need to look for used options on eBay. Look for Dell Optiplex or Lenovo ThinkCentre towers. You will not find specs that good in your price range. But maybe you can get a decent CPU and save money to upgrade your RAM later.

MAYBE you’ll get lucky and find an old Dell server on eBay. Sometimes IT guys will sell their company’s old server for a profit. But I personally wouldn’t buy one of those, the monthly electricity costs are stupid.

Looking for recommendations for a racecar, at least 800 horsepower. Needs to hit 60 mph in under 4 seconds.

My budget is $2000. Please give recommendations.

LOL

Yuuuup. I really don’t understand why it’s so popular. It’s bloated and overly complex. I’ve tried running an instance twice in the past few years, and both times I gave up within a week.

Sometimes these issues happen because of the IP range you’re using. If your local network and your remote network both use the 192.168.x.x range, then there can be conflicts and issues like this. This is a thing that happens generally with VPNs, not sure how Tailscale specifically functions with this issue.

Even if that’s not what’s going on here, you might try setting up your remote node as an exit node, and configuring your local node to route all traffic through it. Theoretically that shouldn’t be necessary, and it will also slow down your traffic if you’re routing EVERYTHING through Tailscale. But it could work in a pinch.

Actually, I’m looking at Tailscale documentation now and I see that they recommend setting up subnet routers instead of exit nodes in most cases. Maybe go that route instead, that makes more sense to me. That way you’re only routing necessary traffic through the remote node, rather than everything.

It’s pretty easy to do this with Cloudflare Tunnels. You can set them up to use a Google account for SSO. Downside of course is that you’re reliant on Google and CF.

You said you already have Blink cams, what about this thing? https://www.amazon.com/Blink-Sync-Module-2/dp/B084RQ6MHJ/ Stick in a flash drive and it’s kinda like a DVR.

Ideal setup would be a proper DVR with proper IP cameras. Ethernet would be better but wireless is doable. I don’t have enough knowledge to make a proper recommendation but people seem to like Reolink as an affordable option: https://reolink.com/us/product/rlk12-500wb4/

If you don’t want to set up a DVR or spend all that money, there are plenty of cheap cameras that write to a microSD card, you could just buy a few of those and buy some massive SD cards that would allow you to record weeks worth of motion events. But of course reviewing all that footage will be a pain without a central DVR. I like my Tapo cameras, and Wyze is another popular brand.

Lol no seriously, what’s your goal here? Self-hosting a server seems entirely unnecessary.

If you want to host an RSS server, FreshRSS is easy to set up if you know how to do Docker stuff. Then, you could connect it to a podcast app on your phone. But all that seems very complicated when you could just install AntennaPod (which is open source), subscribe to a podcast’s official RSS feed, and turn on notifications for that podcast. Adding an RSS server between your listening device and the original RSS server is unnecessary IMO, unless you have a use case that I’m not understanding.
