My week as a windows forced office worker just peaked having seen this meme.

I highly prefer a wireless mouse, but only if does also come with a wire.

“Linux is superior, i am in full control and free to use my device however”

has an iphone

I would still consider myself a noob but i do feel accomplished enough to answer this properly.

Hardware depends on your budget. It does not need to be bleeding edge either, i would focus on a good server case that makes it easy to upgrade over time and maybe fits a few harddrives if you don’t plan on having a nas.

Also make sure to check how much sata connections your motherboard can handle, using an m.2 slots may occupy some of the physical sata connections.

I highly, highly recommend proxmox for an OS.

You can set up every different service into its own lxc container, its wonderful to know you can experiment with whatever and everything else will be unaffected and just keep working. Within lxc things can just run using docker (though this is officially not recommended it works fine). The resource sharing between lxc containers is excellent. Taking snapshots a breeze. And when an lxc is not enough you can easily spin up some vm with whatever distro or even windows also. Best server-choice i made ever!

The zfs format for your storage pool is also very good. And you definitely want redundancy, redundancy makes it so x amount of drives can fail and the system just keeps running like normal while you replace the broken drive, otherwise a single drive failing ruins all your data.

Unless you make every drive its own pool with specific items that you backup separately but thats honestly more troublesome then learning how to setup a pool.

How you want a pool and how much redundancy is a personal choice but i can tell you how i arranged mine.

I have 5 identical drives which is the max My system can handle. 4 of them are in a pool with a raidz1 configuration (equivalent to raid-5) this setup gives me 1 drive of redundancy and leaves me 3 drives of actual usable space.

I could have added the fifth drive in the pool fo more but i opted not too, to protect my immich photons against complete critical failure. This fifth drive is unmounted when not used.

Basically my immich storage are in a dataset, which you can think of as a directory on your pool that you can assign to different lxc to keep things separate.

Every week a script will mount the fifth drive, rsync copy my immich dataset from the pool onto it. Unmount the drive again. Its a backup of the most important stuff outside of the pool.

This drive can also be removed from the cases front in an emergency, which is part of why I recommend spending some time finding a case that fits your wants more then worrying about how much ram.

Best of luck!

He was bad at his job and did nothing to deserve an extra pip.

/s because my conscious can’t handle stating this otherwise.

Its a different scrabble now.

I don’t know if this is on purpose, but if it is then it is brilliant advertising. I wan’t to know everything there is to know about this company now.

You never expressed discomfort appearing as male while interacting with other males because as fluid person you may be fully comfortable with that, or you are not yet comfortable expressing anything different to your peers.

Your friend sound confused that just because your don’t express similar to their gender they believe you are something else but both of you are unique individuals with unique gender experiences.

I have a few notes,

What does a non binary person look like exactly, i really would’t know and i identify as non binary in most contexts.

In most contexts because there is genderfluid, i realised i had no use for gender online first, so i just discarded it, then i extended that logic to the rest of my life where it made no sense to express one gender. But i am also married and a parent, in that role specifically i do have a more binary gender.

It is also incredibly freeing to stop rejecting myself from doing/enjoying things simply because society says my biological sex shouldn’t.

Lastly, did you know that historically neurodivergent people have been strong allies with the lgbtq+ community? Neurodivergent means being wired in a less typical way, and naturally that can also affect your gender experience. Autists (often) question arbitrary social norms, OCD is a form of neurodivergence.

The honor system is pretty subjective, I believe Worf was in a catch22 where not joining the Klingons to fight the federation was considered dishonourable but betraying the federation was also dishonourable.

For this situation i would say that creating offspring would be considered honourable but lying to your partner and yourself about your true feelings of love would be very dishonourable.

Also in many context just because you did not do an honorable thing yourself, that does not automatically dishonour you.

I agree that shooters don’t fit star trek but i adored walking around the ship myself.

I once wrote down a food recept in code style because it seemed like the most structured way to do so.

This seems to be an unpopular opinion but i personally had someone block me for presumably being too friendly and sincere, after an initial comment where i had agreed with them and defended their downvoted comment.

A second person blocked me after i pointed out that the person they where calling ai/a bot is in fact a well loved moderator of the community they tried to be a part of and they where simply misreading the room.

I don’t really mind that people remove themselves but it does worry me that tolerance of others have gotten so low that ideologically similar people will label each other enemies based on very basic misunderstandings of topics they agree about.

The code to handle errors would be so bloated to deal with every conceivable and inconceivable situation you will get errors on your errors.

The computer is as helpful as it can be with what little context it knows of what was going on. Mostly it just knows that codeline 123 went fine and 124 went not.

This isn’t even fucking with them, it directs them to provide an actual proper answer.

For every that doesn’t understand what this is about.

They are trying to filter content from 4chan

The images you upload gets scanned. If they contain the words “anonymous” it checks if it also contains “no.” And if it does it assumes its from 4 chan and then deliberately serves a misleading error.

Zombies are getting to be parents now?

Woke has gone too far, in my day they would have gotten a bullet between the eyes.

With exception of the scifi label and being well known they are not even comparable.

I have tried snac before as a minimalist fediverse server but the blog style layout isn’t really for me.

I have also considered wether a personal Lemmy is a good idea or not.

Counter argument, every year is the year of the linux desktop because its a good meme to share our enthusiasm for the platform.

Also any year that someone switches their main desktop to linux is the year of the linux desktop for them personally.

It doesn’t have to mean anything beyond it, there is no failure condition or something to chase.

It is so undervalued for how amazing streaming your own music collection is.
