Considering that Linus himself only makes binaries for windows and mac, and doesn’t bother packaging for Linux because it’s so painful, I’m not surprised that the immich folks didn’t make one.

I agree.
I believe it’s up to the devs to decide if they want to, or to not include it as a statement.
But I don’t think that there should be any kind of stigma with having (or using) difficulty options. - Comment on Why is it called eating ass if you don't actually eat it? 6 days ago:

Blah blah trucks are stupid. You’ve heard it before, but it’s still right over 90% of the time.
I’m also stupid, but instead of trucks I buy performance cars. We can be stupid together.

Ah, ok then, never mind my answer. I greatly misjudged what you were really looking for
- Comment on Custom remote backup 1 week ago:
What are you using for your main backup? It probably has a feature for doing remote backup / duplication. You’re best off using that.
If you don’t, then I think that’s probably your first order of business. There are a bunch of good COTS NAS devices that support remote backup to a similar device or to the cloud. Synology generally seems to be the easiest to use based on reviews, but recently they’ve been getting picky about hard drive support.
If you’d rather DIY then there are some FOSS software options to let you build your own NAS and then back it up to the cloud or to a remote device running the same software. These can get pretty complicated from what I can tell (I’m in the process of doing something similar, been researching). Options include OpenMediaVault, and TrueNAS. TrueNAS seems to be “better” but more complicated and easy to fuck up.
Unraid is also very popular, but it costs money to get a software license. Users swear by it, though.
And on the outside HexOS - a fork (or maybe alternative front end?) of TrueNAS, by some former Unraid devs, with the goal of making TrueNAS as easy to use as Unraid. But it’s both paid and beta, so probably not a good choice yet.These will all allow remote backup to cloud or to a remote device running the same software. They also typically support some kind of virtualization with an app store, so you can use your NAS to host other servers like a media server or immich or home assistant, etc (although app ecosystem abundance will vary).

Thanks!
That helps when I eventually get around to standing up my own AI server.Right now I can’t really justify the cost for my low volume of use, when I can get CloudFlare free tier access to mid-sized models. But it’s something want to bring into my homelab instead for better control and privacy.
- Comment on How to use a domain I own to self-host services? 1 week ago:
It depends on your motivations and security requirements.
If you’re already hosting Home Assistant, there is an add-on for CloudFlared which will take care of most of everything for you, using CloudFlare secure tunnels.
It even does simple subdomain reverse proxy, to serve your other services.It requires that you use CloudFlare for your DNS entries, and it won’t secure your host for you (they do offer some free services to help a little), and you still end up depending on a cloud service provider so it’s not pure self hosting.
But it’s free, you’re still mostly in control, and it’s less likely to catastrophically mess up your netsec if you’re a beginner. - Comment on Very large amounts of gaming gpus vs AI gpus 1 week ago:
Is Nvidia still a defacto requirement? I’ve heard of and support being added to OLlama and etc, but I haven’t found robust comparisons on value.

Depends on your priorities.
But if your priority is to get the info out there, then you want both, so that it can’t be stopped just by your ISP cutting your service or losing power, nor by the service you’re using shutting down or deleting your message

I think thats too pedantic of an interpretation (surprising, considering my name lol).
I don’t really agree that something we’d recognize as a moral system could form in a vacuum.
If someone’s morals diverge significantly from the culture they’re embedded in, I see three avenues for them:- Find a subculture or external culture to join to help galvanize the shame into resolve
- Adjust your moral system to align with the culture
- Sociopathy
Even in your extreme example, I think that only sociopaths could “go it alone”, and that the people who did disagree with their culture often did so knowing that they weren’t alone in that belief.
But really you’re putting way to much thought into a shitpost.
