Lumisal

Why don’t you just fork it, remove the logo, an set up a domain yourself?

Alternatively, you could set up a presentation that they are a white labeling service, and the reason they use that domain and mascot is to discourage corporations from using the free tier, since the free tier is meant for personal use, and that their reaction is exactly what Anubis aims for unless a corporation is willing to pay for customized service tailored to them.

That ship may have sailed by now depending on how you dealt with the situation, but that would have been the best case scenario. Advocating for something that you know is good, is also good for your career, because now, even if you do recommend something else, your reputation will still be marked by the fact you recommended Anubis and then folded without explaining well why you recommended Anubis despite the mascot. If you still can, I’d bring up the whole thing with the mascot anyway even if you move on to recommend a different service, to save your own reputation for the future, since you seem to be so focused on your perceived career.

Anyway, you can use Cloudflare. Ideologically I oppose it, but it works and is familiar with the non-tech people. There’s also SilentShield, which is based in Europe and in my opinion works better than Cloudflare’s protection in terms of load times.

You mean containerizing Swizzin?

When I did wget (curl didn’t work) I received the message that Debian 13 Trixie is not supported.

They seem to only support Debian 10, 11, and 12, along with Ubuntu 20.04 and 22.04

We’re talking year long consequences, after being in power for years. And then the next leader doesn’t meet said fate.

Every month though? Different story. Especially if it’s something like getting struck by lightning

So? You have a death note. You can give every new entrant a 1 month trail run. Eventually people will figure out a pattern. Humans aren’t that dumb.

Killing people who keep abusing that position of power within an exact amount of time however would either get rid of the position or stop the abuse eventually.

There’s only so many times a person in a very specific position can be struck by lightning or have a heart attack before everyone sees that position as cursed or becomes superstitious about it.

Deathnote can kill in any way you want as long as it’s realistic. Not sure how they’d figure it out. Which means that at some point people will start to think divine intervention, especially if ending the war stops the heart attacks / eagle attacks / flag poles falling on said leader, or whatever other symbolism you’d choose.

Counterpoint - you can know if leader of country x is guilty of killing others if they say they’ve done it quite openly and want to do more of it.

I didn’t know about the homophobe thing. I’m talking about the whole secretly mining crypto thing they did in the past and then afterwards the sketchy crypto pay stuff they tried to pull off after

The Brax phone raised some extremely serious red flags when I saw they put on their banner it was promoted by Joe Rogan and use Brave as their primary browser.

Having two scammers featured makes it feel like a scam.

It’s like a condensed list of the shittiest of tech people, Sans Google

They have tried raising them before remember? Frieren gave the example of the child demon that still killed it’s adoptive parents and more even though it had been forgiven and such. That same story implied that humans have tried giving demons chances in the past, and that every single chance didn’t work out. Not to mention there hasn’t been a single demon that’s talked about a “vegan/vegetarian” demon. With how long lived they are, that would have gotten around by now, especially for someone as long lived as an elf. At some point she would have heard of it too.

And every demon executed so far has been hostile, either attacking or already mid-hunt.

That’s still humanizing the demons too much.

There’s at least human vegans / vegetarians.

There’s no equivalent to that for the demons. That’s the point 😅

And that’s despite chickens etc not being capable of human speech or looking human. The number would be much higher if they did.

Humans have empathy, yet how many will still eat pigs or beef?

Now add on a complete lack of empathy to the mix and you basically have the demon race.

Looking at their git, it seems it’s still technically mantained, but not often.

github.com/IceWhaleTech/CasaOS/discussions/2386

I wouldn’t use it for anything requiring much security, but for other stuff it’s probably fine?

Isn’t CasaOS deprecated now and replaced with ZimaOS? Also, does that mean you’re running it in something like Gnome Boxes? Because from what I remember CasaOS was customized Debian

Already planning on them adding Rustdesk in case of issues in the future actually 😅

I know it doesn’t need hourly updates but something that relies on other data (in this case LLMs) probably needs yearly updates at the very least to ensure better compatibility with newer models.

It’s a good reference guide, yes, but it’s not good for beginners. The linked TRaSH guide seems better but I think are still a lot.

The issue I’ve found when searching for resources for them is that there’s really no guide me for people who know very little but want to do this and guides them in the proper steps from beginning to end. I have an IT degree and even I remember struggling a little bit when I first delved into self hosting because I never really studied networking, and networking feels like a different field entirely. Right now self hosting in general reminds me of the early days of Slackware (maybe even SLS) Linux (for those that remember) - you kind of have to ask around and figure things out on your own through a bunch of lookup.

I’m trying to ease the friction a little bit for those that want too start, and want to see if an LLM that can quickly define some words and tell you not only where to start but the steps after that based on your skill/knowledge level can ease some of that friction.

At least until one day self hosting becomes about as easy as modern Linux.

I asked mostly because I haven’t seen any guides like that. The long video guides are also usually outdated or a very specific method that’s more advanced (like bare metal setup or using ignition)

My plan was to lead them through something like what I use which is base Debian using Dockge and a reverse proxy (though I’m looking into KDE Plasma BigScreen). I think they might be able to figure it out with help and some general written instructions and the AI for further questions.

Is GPT4all still up to date though? I see the last release was in 2024

Any step-by-step text guides you’d recommend? They’re not exactly tech beginners, but they’re also not quite knowledgeable yet. I guided them through Linux install but they use Bazzite and mostly stick to Bazaar on it for any programs they need.

And the Arr Stack, and KitchenOwl, and LibreCloset. They also want something for YouTube, but haven’t decided what they might like the most yet - was thinking of testing KDE’s new Plasma BigScreen and seeing how Waydroid does at running S-tube.

If that worked well enough, then I’d probably try setting them up with that

I have the Alpaca Flatpak, can I set this up in that or is Ollama better? I’m running on Debian

I like it. It’s nostalgic, in a 90s sort of way 😂
