Not all gases. And some gases can be absorbed through the skin, completely invalidating this method. Yay!
- Comment on Appwrite announced the launch of Appwrite Sites, calling it "The open source Vercel alternative" 5 days ago:
Appwrite and Supabase are both very promising open source “serverless” solutions.

Man, the US has a handwriting problem. It sucks sooo much. In other countries it seems to be only doctors, but in the US? Fucking everyone.

And chat. But yeah, no groupware.
- Comment on Simple NAS hardware for home use? 2 weeks ago:
I have an always-on 2020-ish corporate desktop with TrueNAS. When idling, that thing is silent. I have to look at LEDs to make sure it’s running.
- Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools 2 weeks ago:
My little dumpster dive NAS made of second hand second rate hardware cab withstand power losses without hitch. You don’t need a UPS.
- Comment on TrueNAS Scale, hard disks, and pools 2 weeks ago:
I’d hit TrueNAS forums with that. They should be able to help you diagnose what’s up. TrueNAS is pretty reliable, I haven’t heard of anything like that happening before.

Yup. Seems like just mismatched expectations from OP. I hope to see news from the project, there are a lot of interesting concepts.

I think Activity Pub has a clear leg up in that you can be as decentralized as you’re comfortable.
Want to go full one-person instance? You got it. Want to host for your friends and family? Covered. Want to host for the general public? Can do. Don’t want to host at all? Pick your open instance and join the fun.
- Comment on Come to say thank you. Time to move from proprietary to Open Source 3 weeks ago:
There’s also Incus, but if you’ll be using your TrueNAS box to host the containers, I suggest you stick to Docker as it’s the default. If you’re building a second container box, Proxmox, Docker, Podman, and Incus are your best bets. Choose what fits your expertise and needs best.
- Comment on Acquired HPE DL380 G9 - Questions about what is done for self hosting on them these days 3 weeks ago:
One heard good things about Incus, otherwise Proxmox is the default these days.

Thanks! Was it always not federated? I thought it was, in is halcyon days. Might be just my faulty memory though.
- Comment on Spottarr: A modern spotnet client and index for your *arr apps. 3 weeks ago:
I was just confirming. It seemed to me that use had tapered off completely. Glad to know that’s not the case. In a way, Lemmy is essentially a reimplementation of Usenet. Decentralized, federated forums.
What server do you use?

And we went back to it being used as forums?

- Comment on Finance / Investment self-hosted apps? 4 weeks ago:
My previous bank used make it easy to import them, but ever since I’ve moved countries I’ve just been doing it by hand. The banking system here sucks.
- Comment on Finance / Investment self-hosted apps? 4 weeks ago:
When I started, it was only GNUCash as a free option. Never tried anything else. It fits my needs as a family very well.
There’s no mobile or web access, and that’s fine for me. Updating it is something done once a week or less for me anyway.
I manage mortgage, virtual account for kids allowances, budget for future expenditures, and have a set of reports that I refresh to keep tabs on my money and goals.
- Comment on Finance / Investment self-hosted apps? 4 weeks ago:
I use GNUCash with the file on a NAS. I’ve been using GC for over 20 years, I just don’t see myself changing soon.

- Comment on What is Docker? 5 weeks ago:
Snap is like Flatpak. So it will store and maintain as many versions of dependencies as your applications need. So it gives you that benefit by automating the work for you. The multiple versions still exist if your apps depend in different versions.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Yup. I’ve worked in big multinational companies where a local department would roll their own solution (a database and a web page, usually), and then the people that built it moved on or retired and now no one will maintain the thing.
The closer the stuff is to off the shelf, the better. Reliability and maintainability are paramount and should trump feature set when deciding.
- Comment on Ideal Business Stack? 5 weeks ago:
Infrastructure is also easier to change. A TrueNAS local server with external backup using Borg should be a no brainer for users. You could also setup Syncthing to get users something close to OneDrive.

Of the business grows tenfold, is still only 120 people. They can’t handle that in a gaming rig?

With most fixed residential users having their modems on 24/7, there’s more incentive to simply keep renewing the lease. Why would you risk potential service disruption to your clients?
- Comment on It is the season soon 1 month ago:
People are way too sanguine about this anti-AI thing. It’s just a meme, for crying out loud.

Potentially.

I don’t know about NZ (or wherever you are), but IP addresses for residential access in the US don’t really change all that much. It’s… concerning.
