Courant d'air 🍃

I think this question has been raised a few times here and I’m not aware of any “guide for dummies”.

Self-hosting is a wide topic and most of the knowledge is spread across the internet. I’d recommend going to communities like the one you just posted on, reading wikis and learning how to efficiently find information on the web. Most of the knowledge I accumulated over the years come from so many different places so I can’t think of a centralized knowledge base.

If you really want to have a handbook you can refer to you’ll have to write it yourself with your experience about your specific setup and environment.

Bothers me as well, time to contribute and open an issue! I’ve never installed WLED so I won’t be able to describe where this setting is and give more information but I invite you or OP to do it

I have a windows 10 gaming rig hooked to my TV, which I only power up for gaming. I figured out it was a good compromise to install windows on this one instead of dealing with Nvidia issues and other tweaks on linux, even though I dual-booted bazzite and boot it every now and then to see if I can play my games on it and motivate myself into switching.

Same, I played 8 hours in two work days (this is huge for me who usually plays 8 hours a month). This game is addictive as hell

Just made the transition, couldn’t be easier. Export, import, profit

Love letter really is the best, I bring it everywhere I go

I’d say as many as in other countries

La main droite, c’est celle qui a le pouce à gauche

Not for screwing/unscrewing but in France we have a satire mnemonic for remembering right and left:

The right hand is the one with the thumb pointing left.

Works only if you look at the back of your hands, and obviously not useful. We use it mainly to mock someone who mix right and left

Good read, I think the practical example of enshittification makes it easier to understand.

As I understand the screenshots, it looks like it is simulating a windows XP desktop but not opening actual windows or messing with the system

They are cut in little cubes, along with bacon, duck breast and a fried egg. It is indeed unique and delicious

On of my local pizzerias has one with apple and it’s actually one of my favorite!

But my number one is the “indian”, which is basically chicken, curry, pineapple and raisin

Second that, same plan for 2 years and very happy with it. I only host a VPN though

A Raspberry Pi with a touchscreen should be enough, I can’t think of a cheaper alternative

I’d say more than 10 years now. Computers evolved a lot more between the 90s and the 00s than between the 00s and now, my old laptop is 10 years old and it’s still perfectly running linux, and I hope it will keep running for years.

The problem is more hardware obsolescence, it’s a Acer so every part of it is slowly falling apart (keyboard, screen, battery) and OEM parts are impossible to find after all those years. I guess this problem is less important for desktop.

I do run Piped locally for my family’s use, it seems that it works better than public instances but I haven’t really measured to what extent (except for ping, which is obviously excellent at 4ms).

I would say that the problem with self-hosting for private use is limited privacy, as the benefits of grouping multiple users behind the same proxy are lost. I try to mitigate this by routing all piped traffic through a VPN though.
