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.

How easy is that to use? My parents use youtube a lot on the TV. While I already have a mini PC set up connected to the TV they still refuse to use it. I guess they don't like using mouse and keyboard.
I have a Samsung TV so that means I would need to get an Amazon Firestick to use it. I don't mind setting it up but if it's too complicated for a 60 year old boomer to use then I might not even bother.

Yeah on-device solutions exist, I was hoping that there's a way to do it on the network level.

I think it's quite similar to the default YouTube ad, and they can also queue videos from their phones like in the first party app.

Most KWin/Plasma crashes and graphical artifacts on Debian are also coming from old ass shit kernel+graphic drivers stack. It's very rare to see some plasma/kwin crash that is originating inside KDE code and that persists across minor releases.

anyway, that works for my initial point; that kde + debian is a bad combo, but i had few crashes on fedora + kde too, which has updates. and ignoring known issues, kde has other annoyances, thats why i was harsh, but i dont hate on kde, its great for new users.

Are you using Ark? Peazip handles giant archives (largest was like 300GB) just fine on my Fedora Plasma laptop. Never tried any that large with Ark, though.

I never wanted to "hack" on a text editor, I want to edit configs and code.

If a text editor doesnt have ctrl+a, ctrl+c, ctrl+v its automatically shit, unusable.

Because companies want their customer service to be as frustrating to deal with as possible so their customers will give up before getting the service they're owed. Hiring jeets to do the work is, unsurprisingly, one of the best ways to do this.

It is slowly, several websites I use now handle initial support chats/tickets with an LLM first, obviously you can escalate to a human still, but I assume there will be less of a need to escalate in the future so fewer human support employees required. I think there's obvious hesitation since the systems are unproven, and LLMs can have prompt injection attacks, or otherwise be convinced to do things that might put the company at risk legally.

The reason AI hasn't taken over any job fully yet is its current limitation to coherently work on a given task beyond certain hours.

I know 2 more weeks is a meme here but by 2030 I don't see how these limitations won't be overcome just from brute force compute. On top of that there are bound to be better scaffolding that boosts performance enough to replace human desktop jobs more cost efficiently

PDF is just a container format for Postscript. Open up a PDF file in your favorite text editor, and you'll see that it's full of Postscript with bits and bobs of binary data in between.

Why aren't you downloading all the software/tools for anything you could ever want to do offline on your OS since 2010?

Download sites for obscure tools and utilities go down every year, accelerated since the last 5. Software support cycles are the fire in which we burn.

Theme: [Accepting suggestions]

>Song submission rules/guidelines
Upload the file somewhere, preferably in a lossless format, and post the link here. If you want to update your track, make a new post.
Include the song title in the post, and make it clear that your song is a submission for the album.
Optionally you may include cover art for your track, but please confirm that the image in your post is the cover art or it won't be included. You may not use your real artist name.
Songs that contain anything against YouTube's policies won't be uploaded on YT, but will still be added to the album.
By default, tracks will be normalised to -14 LUFS (integrated loudness) in the release. You may specify a lower loudness for your track.
Use of AI is banned. This includes AI generated stems, samples, and effects. "AI" includes all neural network-based models and not hard-coded automation/procedural generation. You are allowed to ask an LLM about music-related questions, but asking it to give you musical ideas (eg. generating a chord progression) is already a no-no.

I'm a newbie at making music and I feel like I don't "get it" yet. Like, sure scales are a thing and music theory is a thing and ear candy and beats and stuff but whenever I'm trying to work on a track it feels like I'm adding things at random and hoping it works out.

Fellow software engineers, what's your plan for the next 5-10 years?
I wasn't worried until Sonnet & Opus 4.5 but it genuinely one shots everything I give it. We went from doing 30 story points (team of 4) to 60 per sprint after the release.
The writing is on the wall, software engineering will be the first white collar job to be automated.
What do we do afterwards?
