The blog post linked within was a good read.

A NAS is the perfect device to host it on though. Docker or VM.

At first, a lot. Not so much recently though. It's definitely more work though I'll admit. Sometimes that's the price to pay for privacy. Also, I learn a lot of skills that could help me get a good paying job by doing it.

My smart home is Home Assistant hosted on a server in my house. It's fully open source and has gone through multiple paid audits to show its security is good too. The only non-local-only integrations are the weather api's and my thermostat (ecobee).

"Blazing fast" makes me check out so fast.

what would be the best way to tell your supervisor to stop inquiring about your personal life and mobbing you into opening up? in c/[email protected]

I could see that backfiring though..

To my understanding role players are really what's keeping it alive. I imagine they don't want to piss them off.

No, using them is fine. It's every night that I was concerned about. They sell a special packet that you mix with water and I believe it says not to do it too often. I believe regular salt water would probably be okay.

As a programmer, same. Endless content on every programming concept, language, or niche that you can think of. Math videos often as well. Numberphile is one of my favorite math channels. They have a computer channel too.

Cool. Idk about every night. But I might do it in the allergy seasons at least 😊

Same. I don't own any subscriptions except for YouTube premium. There is an endless amount of educational content on there and it's the only content I really watch.

I am fairly certain there is a reason you shouldn't do that. Are you using just warm water?

Any suggestions for a Wi-Fi ipcam I can use as a baby monitor? (programming.dev)
 

I currently use Frigate as an NVR for my outside cameras. I would like something that integrates with that. I really just care that it is fully local. I don't want a chance of someone on the internet being able to access a camera in my baby's bedroom.

How can I transfer non-steam games between Linux devices. (programming.dev)
 

I have a desktop and a steam deck. I would like to setup some old games I have on disc on the desktop. Then compress them and decompress on my Steam Deck without doing the full install again. I understand that with wine/proton prefixes they should be installed to a "fake c:/ windows hierarchy" can I just compress that and copy to a different Linux machine? Does it save which proton version was used? If I use something like Lutris or bottles can I import into them?

dockge | self-hosted docker compose.yaml stack-oriented manager (github.com)
 

I just found this last night and installed it for testing. It's just a web-gui to help manage compose.yml files. It's not fully featured yet, but I believe it's got some real potential to be a regular stay for me.

What would you use to remotely support a computer with "LAN" access? (programming.dev)
 

I have a few family members that I help support. For instance, I installed Linux Mint on my grandmother's PC. She doesn't know any different and my young cousin doesn't understand it so he finally stopped giving it viruses. I used to use TeamViewer to take over her PC when she needed support but I got my account banned because they believed I was using it commercially. Oh well!

I have Tailscale installed on the computers. This gives me SSH access. What would you suggest? RDP? Something else?

Matthew Croughan - Use flake.nix, not Dockerfile - MCH2022 (www.youtube.com)
 

I agree that dockerfile's are not very reproducible. But honestly, that's not how most people use it. I believe most people just pull the already built image which is very reproducible. Anyways, I found this video interesting and thought I'd share it and get your guys thoughts.

NixOS Gaming Setup and Comparison (youtu.be)
 

I hope I am not coming across as spamming as this is my third post to this community today. I won't do another today but I just thought this was interesting. I watch most of CTT's videos and this was one from a live stream where he went into gaming on NixOS.

NixOS | For Gaming? (youtu.be)
 

I was looking up gaming on NixOS and I came across this video. I have never seen this creator before but the video was interesting. So, I thought I'd share.

Is there a place that people share their configs? (programming.dev)
 

I know you can go github and just do a file search. I am just wondering if there is a place where people share and give descriptions. I would like to see what is out there in terms of "gaming configurations". But, I also would love to just read some random configs that can help me learn new concepts of what can be done in the config.
