Wanted a cool bootscreen on my Nixos machine - commented out the bootloader to troubleshoot, why my meme-boot-picture wouldn't show - after rebooting, it loaded straight into the BIOS and finally realized what I had done... Was able to fix it thankfully

Anyone know when/if this will be pushed to flathub?

They bill hourly, but what does that exactly entail? Can I risk ending up with a huge bill at the end of the month, or would I be contained to what I pay for/signed up for?

 

Hey all

What VPS providers (EU) would you guys recommend, or use, for casually hosting some game servers, and maybe a matrix instance?

I'm thinking of using docker to manage a valheim server and a minecraft server, one or both running 24/7, and over servers/services that could be spun up, when we want to use them.

Currently I am looking at Hetzner with their CAX21 package (8 gb ram, 4 vCPU), but am a little uncertain about billing. Is it correctly understood that, you can't accidentally overuse ressources, and are kept under the monthly price cap? I have used Linode before, but the Hetzner deal caught my eye.

I look forward to hearing about your guys recommendations and advice

Ang. Donation, har jeg selv doneret til andre projekter via Liberapay, dog husker jeg opsætningen som lidt klodset. Hvis det på nuværende tidspunkt ikke har brug for nogen større finansiering, så kan du bare lave et hurtigt PayPal donate link til dem der har lyst 😊

Looked into selling my old gaming laptop just recently, and it just doesn't seem like its worth selling them, if they are any older than 5 years, and not top spec. Making a server/node/test machine, might be the best option. Still not comfortable with the laptop battery as ups thing.

If I want to search for say location or filename, I have to insert "m:" first. Wiki and the app says its for searching metadata instead of smart search, but anything else just leaves me with a server error. I'm certain its just something I have misconfigured, but still a little annoying that it wouldn't at least fall back to metadata search.

I just recently finished setting Immich with weekly encrypted backup to cloud storage. Really pleased with how it works, as it pretty much feels like an exact Google Fotos foss alternative. Only gribe is image search, but I'm sure its just me not using it correctly.
