I had the same issue, this is indeed perfect for that level and a nice cozy start for your server admin journey :) I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
I am but a cog in a machine. A lazy one though.

I hope someone else can pitch in with a more indepth instructions, but two things I wanted to mention:
First, forget about hosting your own email from home. Seriously. Even those who do it professionally don’t want to deal with that at home. You’ll find people on fediverse who do it but I’m sure plenty will give you this same recommendation/warning. It’s a huge hassle and it’s so easy to get your domain blocked/ending up on a blacklist and way harder to get out of it.
Second, I can personally recommend https://linuxupskillchallenge.org/ if you are really starting from scratch ( there’s a community here: !linuxupskillchallenge@programming.dev ). This is how I started and set up my own linux server and started self hosting stuff on it. It’s really basic and won’t teach you everything you need but it’s a great start for setting up your own server. You can do everything with a local server at home that you have set up.
I want to play a game. All commit info and branch stats are hidden.


Interesting, never had issues with my Tolino with Calibre. Kinda thought Tolino is just German-speaking market branding of Kobo together with Thalia.


For sure it took more back then, however looking at people using their phones/tablets for everything I think you can still learn a lot by simply trying out and using a computer to do similar tasks you would do on a phone too.
The screenshot might have been a bad analogy since e.g. steam actually lets you access your screenshots directly in the application, but if you want to set it as your background image you still have to access the file itself.


Thanks! This was actually a great question too, because I hadn’t really thought about how I gradually learned to use a computer.


For me it was games on a computer. Learned how to use the keyboard, mouse, and later troubleshoot shit that was not working because I really wanted to play a game.
It’s small things like “oh I can take a screenshot, hmm where does the screenshot go?” and that’s how you learn to navigate files and folders etc.


We should seriously push for Project O


This is so god damn ridiculous that we have gotten to a point where it’s harder to steal data and info from people with fine digital systems only for governments to tear it all down.
Let’s go back to only http while we are at it and require single word, all lowercase passwords too. Too complicated? Not allowed, only a-Z characters. Or actually no, let’s store the passwords in clear text so if Mr. Police needs it he can just request and look up my password. Oh and fuck 2FA because that’ll be too inconvenient for whoever needs to access my data.
/s (for politicians and law enforcement before they take this as a draft)
YUP I gave up quickly! it’s truly a CSSHell lol.
From their release notes:
[…] Note that this feature is completely optional and no AI related code is even loaded until you configure an AI provider.
I’m glad for that part.


Maybe, who knows. Oh well. Can still appreciate the good content of PG, especially after they hired some more staff for content, which has been really nice.


I love privacyguides but still a bit salty about how jonah neglected lemmy.one, just ignored contacting attempts when his instance was hosting fuckedup shit, and then brushed it all off by saying lemmy is lacking in functionality instead of admitting he had been completely neglecting the admin tasks on lemmy.one and that he should have closed that instance long time ago if he didn’t plan to deal with it.
It’s ok not to want to continue hosting or admitting that life got in the way, but just brushing that off by saying it’s lemmy’s fault is what annoyed me.
Edit: words.


And they are only answering the easy questions in that thread, just basically answering those “yes” answers with “but but but…you are wrong”. When someone elaborates further or presents some good arguments they just stop answering.
I’m happy I moved to CoMaps when the shitty behaviour of OrganicMaps shareholders came into light.


Forgot about floorp, you are right. No need to jiggle tarballs.


Hey now it’s simple. The name is derived from Ygjls and hfefe which are like industry standard and everyone knows that. Well ok, maybe not hfefe but how do you jumbo your börg config without jimbling tarballs from nightly goobpy repo which obviously has hfefe as a dep?
You put it well. Big Companies who rely on these libraries should put in the work. They have the money and resources to help FOSS projects reach compliance.
Exactly. At the same time the same businesses are claiming record profits, and not contributing to that central piece of foss software at all in any way (like the car manifacturers mentioned in the post).
Do it, 100% worth it! Also has some extra stuff for already-experienced users if it gets too easy :)
