Talos is amazing and if you want to start from a fully automated setup (GitOps, Renovate), I highly recommend using https://github.com/onedr0p/cluster-template

Glad you found your ideal selfhosting setup!

Enjoy!

Dococd + renovate goes brrr

It would be nice if you used Lemmy’s builtin “crosspost” feature: that way you can share across communities to reach everyone, but (some) client software we use won’t show it to us 7 times, because it knows it’s the same post.

Now I get this:

Docker Compose is really the easiest way to self-host.

Copy a file, usually provided by the developers of the app you want to run, change some values if instructed by the # comments, run docker compose up and it “just works”.

And I say that as someone who has done everything from distro-provided packages to compiling from source, Nix, podman systemd, and currently running a full-blown multi-node distributed storage Kubernetes cluster at home.

Just use docker compose.

Sure, you can buy Windows 11 Pro and follow these steps, or just install any modern Linux distro and tick the box “encrypt disk” in the installer.

Thick corporate office walls and long, well-soundproofed HVAC lines to dampen the screams of Palestinian children and the sounds of demolition machines.

WFH is not ideal on the West Bank.

It provides a way to share “web” pages (text, images, links) that can be read by a simple minimal client. Without needing a web browser

it’s not the prompt that’s the issue

No it’s not, it’s the underlying philosophy/expectation that you want to be aware of and in control of every single package/library that’s installed on your system.

And that is not true for the vast majority of people who are getting CachyOS as a recommendation when they search for a “Linux for gaming”.

I think CachyOS is great, and I use it myself, in spite of the ArchLinux base, but I know the pain it brings and have consciously accepted that, and I have fallback plans: I make sure it is easy to re-install my system without losing my home dir or game files. I could even pull in all the important stuff in my home dir from my dotfiles repo.

But this is something you have to want.

On the other hand, I did have to compile xpadneo from source on my wife’s Mint pc in order for her to be able to use an Xbox controller, because there is no deb or PPA of it. So far for Ubuntu-based distros being “GUI only”. On Arch, you could install it from AUR through a GUI.

This is why I think we shouldn’t recommend any (mutable) ArchLinux distro to gamers who come fresh from Windows. Including CachyOS.

Not implying you are one, IDK your experience level, but these kinds of prompts being shown to the user about packaging are a core feature of ArchLinux. This can happen anytime you update an Arch-based system.

Ahh looks like this is not going to overtake Mod Organizer 2 anytime soon, sorry for not checking before crossposting!

I’m sorry, I should have checked before sharing. Will edit the description

What an emotional rollercoaster of a blog: pride, sadness, nostalgia, anger and pride again.

Wow

I installed VoidLinux on a 17 year old laptop with 2GB of DDR2

Is that like teaching grandpa factorio?

PostmarketOS allows you to use upstream Linux
