Then you can use jesus to convert the water component again and repeat the process.
I have a cheap knock off jesus from Alibaba and even he can turn wine into winier wine, if you tell him that it’s just red water. Maybe you are using your jesus wrong?
Nice. I felt the same way a few years ago and changed everything over 2 years. Best decision ever (besides having a child, that was a great decision as well.)
Can’t get any more GNU/Linux than that, nice.
I started with 30, so not far off. My first step was to try to daily drive Linux. Best decision ever, working with a computer suddenly was fun and exciting again.
It is safer in the sense that, when you selfhost, you have to take care of your own backups. You have to make sure your data is still there, even if two hard drives fail, or your house catches fire and your server burns down. Hertzner is doing that for you.
But you are right of course, from a privacy standpoint it would be much better to have your data on your own server and only send encrypted backups to a remote server like Hertzner.
Here is how I (noobinoob) built my own Nextcloud-Server
Hardware: I took the old PC from my aunt, no idea about the specs. Added 4 x 8 TB NAS HDD drives and removed the graphics card, the onboard graphic from the CPU was enough. No raid-controller, just connected the hard drives to the motherboard. In future I can add a PCI-Card with more SATA-ports.
Software: I installed Linux Debian, put my 4 HDD drives in a btrfs-raid1 pool, encrypted them with LUCS, installed dropbear to ssh into my server when it is not started and unlocked yet, installed ddclient to update my domain with my home-IP and followed most (not all) of this guide to install nextcloud. Unfortunately, it is in german, but there are plenty of english intructions out there.
internet-stuff: I bought a domain (10 Euro/year) and set up DynDNS. I opened the neccessary ports on my router/firewall.
I had to look up a lot of things and failed many many times, but now it works and I am very happy with it - no downtime in the last year. It took about 6-12 months to get there.
In conclusion: Your way (nextcloud on hetzner) is the much better way. You save time and money and your data is more secure.
But if you want to learn a lot of new stuff, building your own server is fun.
It would be easy to unlock the devices for different Software - like ugreen does.
And imagine all the possible backdoors in their software. No one can check, because it is closed source. And this on a device with your most senisble data.
Calling their acting ‘responsible’ is a huuuge strech.
I sold my Synology NAS as soon as I found out, that I can’t change the underlying software (DiskStationManager). It wasn’t open source and the hardware was dependent on that propriatary software. As soon as they decide, that your device is too old, they drop support and you are left with an unsecure brick.
And you are saying the software is open source. Did I miss something? Did something change?
That sounds really interesting, thank you for explaining. The last firework I tried to capture was horrible, just as you described, the static light sources blew out. Does this technique have a name I can look up? Maybe my camera has this function as well and I haven’t found it yet.
And thanks for the tip with my language settings, I tried to adjust them.
Looks great! How long did you expose for that, did you use any filter?
We have those walmart brand equivalents in Germany, from supermarkets like Lidl, Norma and co…
In my world, people who come to the task with a brand new, expensive Makita drill deserve way more mockery than people who come with a cheap, well used Lidl drill.
Exactly, I don’t understand the downvotes. If something as big as a car is only used 5 % of the time, the headline shouldn’t be how we can waste more resources on this useless item, but how we can reduce those items and increase the usage time.
We should and I will.
As a non-native speaker, the word ‘awning’ feels very rare. I have never heard of it. Does every native speaker know this word, or is it some upper class description with a more common known sibbling?
Does anyone know those tony boxes for kids? It’s a box with a speaker, and if you put a little figure (a bit like a playmobile character) on it, it plays an audio book as long as the little figure stands on it.
I really want to build it myself, but I have done 0 research yet. But every now and then a thought plopps up, like ‘I could use NFC tags to trigger the box start playing’, ‘I have an old raspberryPi somewhere’, ‘is it even possible to build a good sounding speaker in this size?’,…
But no time to follow up on those thoughts.
Would you start with big scarry teeth and draw the rest of the monster around that? Or start with the shape and worry about details later?
