  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I have literally been on this exact journey. Mind you I'm on NixOS across two boxes so not quite a raspi... Perhaps my downsizing is not yet complete

    [–] utopiah@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

    Same, in fact you can also went down in RPi models. Basically the more you know, the less you need, e.g. going from Plex to Kodi to minidlna...

    Absolutely the best way to learn though. The number of places I've walked into that had no clue about containers or even a vpc and thought Google drive was an API is too damn high.

    [–] silasmariner@programming.dev 3 points 1 month ago

    I have actually had to write something that used the Google drive API for a friend's company once and it was... Unpleasant. Counterintuitive. Woefully inconsistent. My solution worked but it sucked and I am a bit ashamed of it

    I love my little k3s box and having all my config in git

    [–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (3 children)

    I still like vms on digital ocean. I guess I'm a seething soydev.

    As a developer and not a sysadmin, I refuse to learn anything more than docker. It's good enough for me 😀

    Edit: on a more serious note, proxmox with docker containers has been more than enough for me

    I've been enjoying Jeff Geerling's ongoing experiments with his 10" Raspberry Pi mini rack.

    It doesn't work for me since all of my network equipment is 19" and there's no point in having two racks but having a 10" standard is still a great idea!

    Wait, you can host a website on a raspberry pi !? But is it really cheaper than shared hosting, for instance? And even then, quality-wise, it cannot be that good, can it?

    [–] jonne@infosec.pub 6 points 1 month ago

    You can host a website on a lot less, even. But it entirely depends on what you're hosting and the load. Basically anything can host a bunch of static pages, so if your site is just that, basically anything will do. You could probably even do a WordPress site with the right caching plugins and serve a reasonable amount of traffic. The first limit you'll hit realistically is your uplink, not your webserver CPU.

    [–] RamenJunkie@midwest.social 5 points 1 month ago

    You can definitely run a low traffic website with a Pi. You can run Minecraft Servers and such on Pis. Especially on Pi4s.

    a pie is neat. thats it. does it have enough ram for hosting & running all your containers? no.

    Random mixed parts -> 4u unraid server with switch -> random fedora Optiplex that never fails unlike 4u server

    Why not rasberry pi with kubernetes?

    [–] Mio@feddit.nu 3 points 1 month ago

    Yes, you can optimize a lot. Especially with Linux. I did the same and even started to replace program that did too much, bloated, with my own programs. To speed up the development I did it with AI and Cursor.
