100% stop at 5pm.

I can’t tell you the number of times stopping to eat and take a shower cleared my mind to fix it that night or the next morning after a good sleep.

Fresh eyes people!!

Oh I’m totally getting metube. I use ytdlp with a script

What did you deploy?

I’m messing with self-hosting a LMM with a web front end right now.

Powershell is not on the list…

I am not a programmer, but a sysadmin. Don’t get to enjoy this one :-\

I sort of do this in a block comment at the top of some scripts I write.

Changelog for Completed Stuff and Future Features for todo

The worse part is having the gear and STILL not learning/playing with it.

I got stuff to start !selfhosted@kbin.social like an old i5 minipc and even a 64gb i7 pro series laptop…

Theyre just sitting unplugged with mint on them.

Yep

Warning: This becomes a rabbit hole very quickly because there are so many items to cover. I’m not going to breadcrumb you. I want to provide you with everything, which means we have to start from the BEGINNING!

Use case:

I want to set it up in my home so husband and 2 kids can access and share within GOG TOS.

Is there a feature to automatically download installers and patch files from GOG to the server?

Seems like a good feature to have to maintain an offline library.

RTFM? Nowadays it’s a YouTube video away. Freaking legos.

Drivers would be end users, Clients and project managers sometimes.

Think about it. Many drivers don’t know about checking the oil, maintaining proper tire pressure, tire wear, brake wear, air filters or topping off fluids.

I can do all of the above, but I’m nowhere near a mechanic. Just car savvy. So I could make suggestions to mechanics or engineers that look cool but are insane for functionality.

+1 for yt-dlp

That’s my biggest peev about JSON actually. No comments!! WTH!

Support should be 5 years after End of Life or end of Manufacturing date.

Last PC I built was fractal and it was a dream. Amazing quality.

Can you clarify on how NixOS is great for selfhosting? I was going to do mint.

I just started messing with linux on an old laptop. Tried VNC and got annoyed. Switched to xRDP and it works as intended but performance is lackluster on a local network.

Anyone have thoughts or tips?

Especially if you just need placeholder art you can use AI to drop in general ideas and later replace the art by a partner or contractor.

If you get a demo off the ground with “alpha” graphics and look decent you can market it better and maybe build a team.

I think a big benefit for this is also motivation. You no longer have a blocker due to missing art or issues with an artist.

Uhh… need a character design for the mayor. <<AI art placeholder>> ok now text… <<AI first draft dialog >> ok now code…

No more excuses!

As shown by a Microsoft employee opening a bug for FFPEG for issues with Teams…

Maybe fix it yourself and contribute or donate to the cause?

The problem with this is loopholes.

What’s to stop a parent company from starting a private sub company for IT needs and contract out the work?

BAM there goes the anti stock thing.

I say free for personal/private use but not for commercial would be a better license.

Costs are dumb cheap for single seat but increases as seats goes up.
