What makes you think that?
Fair. The rest of the site is a lot more normal. More being a relative term, of course.
the mbin team says some things that I find concerning about kbin
What are they saying?
Any reasons why you can’t recommend it?
That’s not a bad idea. Surely it could be automated within the image. If my ADHD allows me I might take a look at it later. :D
Looking at the installation instructions, it requires you to run database migrations manually with every image docker image update. Does this mean that running watchtower is going to bork this thing?
Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.
The problems I’ve had with my RPis have all revolved around the fragility of their SD storage. I got burned one too many times trying to host something important in my house with these things, just for them to get corrupted and lose everything. Backing up these systems was its own nightmare, which failed as much as it succeeded.
What’s wrong with that?
I don’t think you’ve properly thought through the consequences of not considering IP rights for projects with a significant number of contributors. There are absolutely situations in which having a single IP holder is advantageous to having multiple IP holders. Large open source projects might find governance hard when they’re hamstrung by getting consensus from hundreds or thousands of contributors.
And yes, I did read the title and the post. I understood it.
Copyright and license agreements are not at all the same thing. And just because something is “open source” doesn’t mean that it is free of copyright.
Would love a technical breakdown on what happened!
Yeah. Blocking is hard for a federated system. And that’s before the philosophical differences that have popped up in this thread on how blocks should work in theory.
Why did you choose to be a dick about this?
But if a troll blocks everyone that down votes them, eventually no one will be left to see their stuff. It is a self solving problem. On the other hand, a troll that you block can interfere with your stuff being shown to others depending on the sorting algorithm.
Except up and down voting has implications for whether or stuff is visible in certain sorting algorithms.
But if the bad actor blocks everyone, they are putting themselves into a bubble where no one will see their garbage takes.
lol no
This is important. I dunno about scale, but backups. I started out hosting a chat room on a raspberry pi. It was a fun side project. But then, that became where my friends all hung out. That was the place, so it became important to me. And then the SD card got corrupted. I then moved on to a consumer laptop. It was way more stable, much faster. But if I messed up anything about the installation, I was hosed.
I very highly suggest using Proxmox, like you say, and setting up automatic backups. And occasionally transfer them to a hard drive. It doesn’t matter what kind of virtual CPUs or services you install, [email protected], as long as you have a plan for when something you host becomes important to you and you lose it.
