A long time ago.

These days, I keep both audio and vibration turned off. If somebody needs to reach me they will want to message and then wait until I check.

Makes sense, it seems like Caddy is like a Swiss army knife and nginx is now the whole Home Depot.

A decade ago or so nginx was the swiss army knife to Apache

I’m an old school nginx pro. So I keep using nginx for reverse proxies because it’s what I know. What does caddy have to offer (or traefik is anyone wants to jump in)? Are they just optimized for this function and more modern?

UBI is probably a good idea but it’s coming too slowly for anyone to rely on. Even if UBI is fully implemented, I suspect it will be life sustaining but not a life fulfilling. So humanity still needs to find purpose.

It’s hard to imagine a scenario where someone cannot be trained to do something new. Isn’t that a core feature of humans?

Next, how shall we define value? I argue that humans can always create some kind of value that machines cannot, even if only because a human is involved.

We still value actual art over AI generated art. We value uniqueness and rarity. We value the faults that are inherent from things that are natural and organic.

Tons of the jobs people did a hundred years ago in developed countries are now gone or have been streamlined down to require fewer people. Yet there are more people on earth now than there ever have been before and arguably worldwide hunger is at its lowest point. So somehow we have figured out how to survive despite vast amounts of automation already. It seems unlikely that our new “AI” tools are going to somehow dramatically disrupt this balance.

Here in Thailand a lot of people have this cert and use it to teach. These jobs are competitive so don’t pay super well. I’d suggest you start on job boards in various places you might want to live to see what they will require.

I’m selfhosting it on box next to me. Wasn’t so hard for me to find the GitHub link on their website.

They have a SaaS option as well, I’m guessing that’s the main revenue plan.

Huly is pretty amazing and has a self host option. It supports chats and video calls, team rooms, and has some cool integration for speech to text note taking. It also functions as a task tracker.

Under super active development right now so host only if you can deal with occasional breaking changes.

Hey that’s awesome! thank you for the share. Planning to install proxmox this weekend and give it a try.

Having electric stability issues this week in Bangkok - several 2-3 hour outages, which are too long for a UPS to cover the gap. I have several mid range but older PCs running docker, virtualbox, etc for various things including a postfix server for the family email, immich, QBittorrent, pihole, paperless, huly, postiz, a Minecraft bedrock server, a flightradar24 ads-b collector, and a variety of other homegrown projects.

Thinking about getting some or most of this over to a service like hetzner, perhaps even splurging on a baremetal dedicated system.

Recently I’ve been reading about/trying to learn qemu and proxmox, but don’t understand them yet. Is that where it’s at for managing a bunch of your own VMs? Or kubernetes/k8s?

I’ve been a little out of the loop for a few years and of course coming back up to speed IT wise judge take weeks. Looking for recommendations on offloading my home stuff to a cloud that I control.

So much this here in Bangkok as well, and in addition nobody has any clue which side to walk on.

You are constantly approaching head-on with a pedestrian who doesn’t know where to walk and weaving around wandering groups that wall 3-4 people wide.

Haven’t checked in a while but is there any hope for cloud storage of the image library yet? I’m kind of holding out for S3 support because I don’t want to manage multiple terabytes locally.

It seems like the most significant new feature is called anti-gravity which is kind of an allow list?

We’ve had white lists for a long time so I’m not exactly sure how this will impact the system. That being said I read through the release notes and there are a lot of changes and improvements throughout the system, so congrats to them team on the 6 release.

I’ve had pihole running on my home network for years and I love it.

I’m not completely sure if the post you replied to was sincere based on its tone but appreciate your well reasoned comprehensive analysis.

Hah, I installed Postiz just yesterday, interesting to see this thread. It’s like buffer or one of the other paid tools to schedule your social media posts and track engagement. Of course, of particular interest to our community, Postiz is self hosted.

It doesn’t have as many features yet as the major SaaS businesses, but the software is looking good and quite usable right now. I’m sure the more people who use it and support the developer, the more this tool can grow.

For example you can plug in your OpenAI API key and get an LLM chat interface inside the software while writing social posts. But I don’t think it learns your style or creates posts using any kind of system prompt yet unless you type it in each time.

Another thing I couldn’t figure out so far is how to limit which social media channels individual users can see. For example my business has several different units and there’s a different marketing team on each unit, so they shouldn’t be able to post into other channels.

If you’re in the business of needing to post regularly on a lot of channels I think postiz is worth checking out.

Get a supported version of Linux on there, give it a static IP on your LAN, install Pihole by following the guide at

https://pi-hole.net/

Update the DNS ip that your router gives out to the IP of your netbook, and voilà, most ads can’t load any more.

Even mobile phone apps that have ads won’t show the ads when you’re connected through your home network.

Pihole

I too have a nearly perfect replica of this piece. I’m selling each piece, which is part of an extremely limited run of 1000 pieces in total produced this week on demand, signed and sealed in a Tupperware container for freshness, for $2,990 each, worldwide shipping is just another $299.

Especially if you did it only 45 times or so at $45 invested and got $26,500 back a day after the election
