I’m not here to pass judgement. If you think that the opinions in the text are your own, keep the text as is (if you ask me).

Posting a link to something that is implied to have been written by you (“my reasoning”) while being written by an LLM. OP argues that because the LLM wrote the text, it is not your reasoning.
Is it your reasoning or is it genereted text reasoning about something that you agree with? (i.e. not strictly your reasoning if the LLM created it, according to OP).

Same, I am often about 8 GB of RAM with my daily usage.

I would “work” as in do what I do for a living but not at the behest of someone else. I would only create for my own use and enjoyment.

I think it is time to move down your laundry!
- Comment on ideas for deadspace behind fridge 1 month ago:
Make an elevator from the basement to the kitchen. Or just make a hole to the basement, but your laundry basket under and throw your dirty laundry in the hole.

Could it be that it aims to be the same technology? E-Ink is a brand.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 1 month ago:
I tried Huginn first but I found the documentation better for n8n, and it was easier to use.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 1 month ago:
I like to be able to tailor my notifications to me needs.

I wanted to do the same for One Punch Man but ended writing a bash script for it instead. File access and variables was the biggest hurdle (but both are solvable).
Knowing if it is going to rain in the next hour is nice because I take the bike to work. I like to know which clothes to take with me.

Caddy can manage certs out of the box for you, you don’t even need to understand how it works. Just add a url to your Caddy file, make sure the domain points to your Caddy server, have port 80 and 443 open, and you are done.

I hate when I see a cool title and then it links to a video. I want text so that I can read what I find relevant. It is like looking up recipe, a lot of the time there is a wall of text about their childhood before the actual recipie.
- Comment on What are you using n8n for? 1 month ago:
Here is what I use it for:
- Download top voted pictures from CivitAI
- Pull weather data and get notified if it is going to rain
- Subscribe to events posted by the police (polling their API)
- Scrub lunch restaurants for todays menu
- Get notified when a streamer I follow on twitch starts streaming
- The same for YouTube but I haven’t finished this one yet.
- Webhook (combined when a one file web page) to note down every time my oldest kid has this strange coughing.
- Send me this week’s number (because some people use it and knowing that today is week 50 can be useful a few times a year).
I use ntfy for my notifications. I was also planning to monitor if I sold anything in Guild Wars 2 but I haven’t bothered setting up a table in a database to keep track of if I have seen the latest changes, otherwise I would get the same notification over and over.

I had a Raspberry Pi once and wanted to move file from the current folder to some other folder. I typed
mv /* /path/to/folder/and move everything in the root directory and down to this other folder.^Correct would have been dot slash: mv ./* /path/to/folder/ a^

Which software do you use for backups?
- Comment on I am attempting to get into self hosting after a shockingly frightening experience. I am very lost though. 3 months ago:
Install Virtualbox (or some software to handle virtual machines).
Install Debian (or some other OS of your choice, I won’t judge if you prefer Windows).
Update your OS (apt update && apt upgrade -yon Debian).
Take a snapshot of your VM’s current state after updating. Saves a lot of time if you mess up or want a clean slate.Now you decide on what you want. Do you want to install n8n or Node-RED for automation? Do you want to use Immich for pictures? Paperless to save papers in a digital format? Audiobookshelf to listen on your books or podcasts? Jellyfin to stream your media? Set up a Minecraft or Factorio server?
Once you have decided on what you want to do, try to do it in your virtual machine.
Once you understand how to set it up and configure it to your liking, decide on how you want to host it. I took an office computer, added a few HDDs and replaced the case with a bigger one and it’s now my home server, but any old laptop will do. Just make sure to take backups.I used to have a Dell R710 and a virtual machine for each service I hosted, but I have moved to docker because it as simple as taking the often provided compose file, tweaking it a bit (where to store data etc) and running it with
docker compose up -d. - Comment on scheming hot banana cookies 3 months ago:

maybe I’m in the echo chamber
I always try to have that in mind when I talk to my SO. I usually say “I’ve read X and lemmy but lemmy is VERY left bla bla”. Not to invalidate what I read here, but to be mindful of my sources.

The Nazis brutally oppressed the working class
Can you please elaborate on this? I thought the Nazi party was great for the German economy, taking the country out of a great recession. Nothing I learned hinted at the german population having it bad, the “only” problem was killing on an industrial scale.

From what I remember, the idea was that since a lot of people already use Java for work, they wouldn’t have to relearn a language to contribute.

I second LG. Probably even if I don’t connect it to the internet. OLED + webOS + magic remote. If it was super important to not require internet etc, still LG but JB it.

Same here. I remember playing minecraft and wanted to install some mod on my server. There were instructions and I followed them. Problems? Search the web.

I second Debian because of the amount of information out there.
