You can do it. I use a powered USB hub and a raspberry pi, and 5 hard drives.
It is a mess of cables but was simple enough.
I also sprang for a UPS because most filesystem’s I tried like zfs and btrfs didn’t appreciate random brownouts from running 4 drives off the pi itself.
Right now they’re xfs and used for a minio install and torrent storage
people get grumpy about containers vs nix vs flatpak and I just wanna say… I’m glad you’re using Linux. yes, you.
The lemmy devs would probably take something sensible like that and flat out shoot it down because they think they know better.
getting accidentally hired and finally making enough.
story: every job I’ve ever applied for in tech didn’t work out. I was a dishwasher until right before covid when someone recommended me for a cybersecurity position. Before that I had obsessed about FIRE or living in a car or being careful about too much starbucks or avocado toast… without making enough for a car or health insurance. That job paid ~half of what cybersecurity should pay, but was AMAZING. My next job paid just a hair under average, three years later. night and day, able to afford to exist without help.
financial advice be damned. I couldn’t “find” anywhere with lower rent. I was in the lowest cost of living possible regionally. What needed to change was the PRIMARY job’s income rate, not adding some side hustle. Either make rent cheaper or find a higher wage.
I’m not making enough to consider your next fancy moves like getting a house.
We salute you! raises Starbucks to toast
That face reminds me of something
Came here to say this. Let them toggle the logs or the QR code.
“LGB without the T” is transphobic. Most pride folks will know you mean well if you say LGBT. They’ll know you’re an ass if you say LGB Alliance. The other parts are, for example, if gays have marriage rights but transgender folks can’t get healthcare. Intersectionality is about how marginalized folks should band together in recognizing that different kinds of marginalized folks (color of your skin, your age, disability) are marginalized in similar ways. Privileged folks haven’t experienced the friction and frustration other folks have.
but yeah, as long as you say LGBT instead of LGB…
I’m going to keep this in mind, I’m working on a similar tagging API
I mean, delta.chat exists…
The other way would be a dht of hashed email addresses or hashed keys, but then you could look up live email addresses to send spam to.
The magic of tor v3 is that the plain address record is needed for some time based calculations about the dht record, e.g. they publish the descriptor’s of the site using the public key as a reverse lookup
But that wouldn’t work to obscure the email or use the email as a lookup because the dht wouldn’t have a way to prove the record was true to that email, unless it was sending emails from it
I guess that leaves DNS records or some kind of activity pub system with webfinger
Dirt cheap.
Cost = maintenance + servers
Engineers always underestimate the cost of their time.
