Does anyone else proudly display the what they self host on their laptop? The hardest part is removing old stickers when you port from one project to another (Trilium and Obsidian for example). People ask me all the time what’s this or that sticker. I’m impressed when they can pick one out on their own.
It must be a lot of work to self-host DigitalOcean.
Also Steam… i mean it’s a LOT of games!
you self host your own claude llm? damn and here i thought a 14B deepseek ollama instance was good shit - how did you get access to their proprietary weights?
these ones: https://www.etsy.com/shop/SoHexy ?
I think I’m in love. They have such great variety, and the artstyle is so neat. And I love stickers because they are such great conversation starters.
TIL nano editor has its own logo
~$5 for a single sticker??
I was thinking you could buy a pack for $5 but power sticker is ridiculous
power sticker
I am sure you mean per sticker but the typo is hilarious :D
Out of interest by “selfhosting” steam are you running a steam cache or just using it?
I did self host a steamcache years back but no, its one of the few “normie” stickers but few people I know that would even recognize that. I also don’t self host the Zigbee protocol, and I gave up OPNsense for Ubitquiti 2 years ago so no, that’s not self hosted either. I only have one laptop so my hobbies have to coexist on it.

And yet I see no pornhub sticker…
Not everyone is a degenerate
Not in this tab anyway…
Should be a stash sticker if we’re selfhosting
What is stash?
Plex for porn
I like the idea of this. Perhaps not on a laptop, but small hexagon badges that show some sort is relation to something. Favorite media, projects, software you’re good with, coding languages you a comfortable with, etc. A simple snapshot into someone that can be identified easily, what a great conversation starter.
These are really consistent, do you print them yourself?
I got them from Etsy. They all came with borders so I had to 3D print a jig to get the cuts right with a razor knife. They’re still a little wobbly but they’re good enough.

Ugh… just say you made them if is your shop… this is leaving a bad taste in my mouth, even if the product looks nice…
Why though? Just curious
It reeks of “manufactured organic content” if that makes sense. This may not have been OPs intention, but it kinda checks those marks:
- post content, praise it, don’t mention you make and sell it
- another user finds out you make and sell it, posts store link
- post disguised as advert, manufactured organic conversation around the product creates an effective advertisment
It leaves a bad taste in my mouth because this is what modern advertising is and I prefer to have full transparency. A disclosure in the post would have been nice. Again, I’m not saying this was OP’s intention, it just hits the same points.

This is what drunk dads say about their 1 year old son who’s just learning to walk.
edit: FYI, this shop is OP’s shop
Found them! This lets me cheat and figure out the ones I couldn’t name (or knew I’d got wrong like Digital Ocean that I thought probably wasn’t Commodore 64).
I’d love if there was a Gravatar-style thing you could choose hexes like these to display as a digital badge. Even better if it was self-hosted.
