I just started using it but I made a mistake on one of my submissions. Is there any way to undo or edit a submission made in the app?

Edit: There is an undo button on the bottom left in the app.

Latency tested using librespeed.org is about 50 ms.

Dell Optiplex XE3 for Home Server (lemmy.ml)
 

I recently got a Dell Optiplex XE3 second hand and set it up as a home server. It's working great and I wanted to share some info on it in case it's a helpful reference for other people's home labs.

The Dell Optiplex XE3 tower is configured with a i7-8700 (6c, 12t), 32 GiB DDR4 RAM (2 sticks), 2 2.5" SSDs, and 1 M.2 NVMe SSD. I installed Debian 12 minimal and services are deployed via Docker. I'm currently running 20+ containers, with some of the heavier containers being Jellyfin, Nextcloud, Paperless NGX, Home Assistant, and Immich. I haven't performed any software power optimization; it's just a standard Debian install. When idle with no significant load on the containers, power consumption is 14-15W measured with a Shelly Plug. While not fantastic (my previous server had 6W with similar loads), it is lower than I expected and is quite reasonable.

Overall, I'm impressed with this system. It currently has 4 unused PCIe slots, 2 unused SATA connectors, and 2 unused DIMM slots so it has solid future expansion. I have it laying on its side on a rack shelf and it takes up about 3.5U of space in my rack. While I wish it was smaller, fanless, had lower idle power, and had 2.5G Ethernet it has better idle power than I expected for its configuration and options for future expansion.

Framework 16: recommended RAM and charger in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

For RAM, I would preorder without memory. I would wait until Framework updates their knowledge article on memory compatibility before buying RAM from a 3rd party (https://knowledgebase.frame.work/en_us/what-dram-memory-is-supported-by-framework-laptop-16-ryS2Xr3ch). Since the FW13 is also a 7040 series chip, I expect them to update this FW16 article well before the FW16 ships.

I think the charger is pretty cool and will be one of the first of it's kind. I would have no issues ordering that since it's fairly priced and will be useful for almost all USB-C devices in the foreseeable future.

Who makes Nix packages? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I didn't find anything concrete, but it seems that a package is automatically marked insecure if it has a dependency that has a known CVE. I wonder how that is done.

How are packages marked as insecure? I assume that's from some sort of automatic build process? Is that done in Hydra (https://hydra.nixos.org/)? Or is that from manual, or a lack of manual review?

Who makes Nix packages? (lemmy.ml)
 

I'm new to Nix and wanted to get my feet wet by using the Nix package manager. However, I wasn't sure how these packages were made. Are these packaged by the community? Who do I need to "trust" when installing these packages? In general, I was looking for info on how nix packages are made and maintained.

I'm glad they included the thickness (18mm, 0.7in), but I was hoping they'd share the other dimensions as well.
