I'm not a computer expert, but can't you just have a smart home made of smart devices that connect to a local network server that's within your own home and does not connect to the Internet and cannot be accessed / controlled from outside your home network? Is that really so difficult to program? Why must everything connect to the Internet?

It's so much faster than digging through dozens of blogs, or asking reddit, or getting on a forum full of fat miserable nobodies that feel important because they know a bit of technical information and have a shit attitude towards anyone asking for help. See: any IT forum, creativecow, adobe help forums... pieces of shit that do nothing to help people and just see it as an opportunity to talk down to people while stroking their ego.

Meanwhile AI will tell me how to solve my problem immediately. Long gone are the days of posting about an issue with a piece of technology, and only getting responses from fanboys defending it and refusing to help or admit its glaring issues.

Gemini has been a blessing in my life, I feel like kissing every Google employee on the cheek, despite the Mossad data mining spyware, it's a fantastic tool that has helped me learn a ton of invaluable info thay I feel like would take insanely far too long to learn otherwise, it's definitely limited, sometimes crap, repeats itself but all-in-all, "good for most and for the most-part", it's not a one-size-fits -all solution for every problem but for the average person? A blessing.

If AI gets you to start learning something you put off, even if it hallucenates and fills your head with horseshit, that's preferable to you wasting your fucking life doing jack shit every day. At least (hopefully) people will correct you or you can figure out what you screwed up down the line. At least you took a fucking shot at something.

Fucking losers in this thread trying to discourage people from using AI to learn shit are absolutely retarded.

Yeah I also think about this often. I came from other languages pretty late in the game and had very little trouble adjusting to the sexp syntax. I'm guessing it mostly comes from python devs that are used to a mostly noiseless syntax, but coming from C++/Java/Rust it's a breath of fresh air.
Only thing I prefer in those languages is the discoverability with LSPs. Like doing thing.<autocomplete>, in lisp I need to know the method/function beforehand and I don't know what's compatible with what without looking at the source code. Overall not an issue because NIH is strong in Lisp and I have like 0-3 libraries max vs something like Rust where you end up with 20 crates.

The Pseudo-Decentralization of Mastodon – Just Another Illusion

Mastodon and the broader Fediverse are frequently sold as the holy grail of “real” decentralization – in contrast to evil centralized platforms. In reality, this is mostly marketing.The largest instances (mastodon.social, mastodon.online, mas.to) are all controlled by the same legal entity: the Mastodon gGmbH / corporation, led by Eugen Rochko. Two or three of the biggest nodes = one single boss. That’s not decentralization; that’s just a slightly distributed company structure.Sure, right-wing instances like Truth Social exist (or Gab, or others). But they rarely federate meaningfully with the big leftist-leaning main instances. In practice you get two (or three) almost completely separate, ideologically closed networks that only talk to their political allies. That’s not open federation – that’s allied dictatorships communicating with each other.At the end of the day every single instance is still a miniature centralized dictatorship with an owner who can ban, defederate, censor, or simply shut down the server whenever they feel like it. Mastodon.social, Truth Social, Reddit, X – structurally they are the same thing: one admin, one set of rules, one kill switch.The Fediverse is “decentralized” in exactly the same sense that Reddit, X and 4chan are decentralized: you can choose which dictator you want to live under. That’s the whole difference.

I haven't worked on game servers but I did work on enterprise message passing shit where I had to look into the potential impact of encryption. From what I remember large numbers of small messages received very little impact while large messages carrying large payloads did show quite a lot of extra CPU overhead. That mostly happened because large payloads moved very large amounts of data around while small payloads hit other I/O bottlenecks and overall data rates were much lower despite a far higher message rate.

Ultimately I'd be pretty sure a game server use case would be more on the large number of packets with relatively small payloads side, no? Like how high could data rate per player reach?

Huh, that's interesting. I'll need to check that out in more depth.
>Ultimately I'd be pretty sure a game server use case would be more on the large number of packets with relatively small payloads side, no? Like how high could data rate per player reach?
Decided to get some numbers since I initially wanted to say "a lot" for games like minecraft, but technology marches on and "a lot" from 20 years ago is "nothing" today. For typical shooter-like games, Gaffer targets 256kbps limit per player (https://gafferongames.com/post/snapshot_compression/) and for wow-likes ithare targets 160kbps (http://ithare.com/mmog-world-states-and-reducing-traffic/). Minecraft apparently manages to be only 600kbps to 5,000kbps for cases involving chunk streaming. So maybe if you wanted to cram a lot of players into a single box (sensible architectural decision since horizontal scaling introduces the problem of unreliable networks and higher latencies between regions) it might be a problem, but for the typical ~100-1000 players a box, that's only ~25-250Mbps for a typical game. When my own game gets to the point that stress testing & optimising the bandwidth becomes possible, I'll share findings in /gedg/.

In hindsight, Microsoft should have just quietly switched Internet Explorer to Chromium instead of wasting time with Edge and having two browsers running at the same time. The same with not migrating all of the control panel all at once.

We could have had all the web browsers converge on Webkit in 2008, now we have a mess. I still think Firefox should dump gecko as too many websites don't work properly anymore.

READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

I just use it to monitor a dozen proxmox hosts and their associated VMs so maybe the question is retarded but why are you installing the agent in each LXC instead of using the Proxmox VE by HTTP template to monitor containers that way?

>>107836876
I do use Proxmox VE by HTTP, but the containers themselves don't get populated as separate hosts. It's just the one host and a bunch of probes per 3 digit number associated with the container.
I wanted each container to be treated as it's own host with it's own cpu, disk, memory, and service probes. That requires a separate agent for each. Maybe it's possible by manually editing the discovery templates but I didn't really want to get that deep in the weeds.

If you'd bother to look at the definition of 'use of AI' that is being plotted in that graph you'll note that the definition itself upon which the data is based, is inconsistent from year-to-year and therefore any trend-analysis based on the data is bunk.
Furthermore, you'll note that the definition as used in recent years would already qualify if one moron in an entire department regularly uses Copilot to reformat outgoing email. One noname troglodite prompting ChatGPT in an accounting department would be enough to have an entire multinational light up as 'using AI.'

The data is a farce.
