SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[SOLVED] ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP?English3·13 days agoGood to hear you figured it out with router settings. I’m also new to this but got all that figured out this week. As other commenters say I went with a reverse proxy and configured it. I choose caddy over nginx for easy of install and config. I documented just about every step of the process. I’m a little scared to share my website on public fourms just yet but PM me ill send you a link if you want to see my infrastructure page where I share the steps and config files.

SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why should I continue to financially support the development of Lemmy when the developers operate .ml, an instance that is a prime example of arbitrary censorship?English162·22 days agoAt the end of the day you need to decide what kind of person you are. Are you pragmatic or idealistic? Are you able to separate art from artist and creation from creator? Should you support a good open source service created for the betterment of everyone if you dont like the politics of its developers?
I’m a pragmatist by nature. I believe that a useful tool remains a useful tool even when its crafted by tankie assholes. If I found out the maker of a computer command like sudo was a leninist or whatever I wouldnt go out of my way to install an alternative just because I dont agree with the batshit politics of the creator. Just like I wouldn’t stop enjoying a song after finding out the ones who made it were greedy egotistical dickheads in personal life.
Young and politically charged idealist love that online social justice warrior signalling and political identity posturing. Everythings gotta be us vs them culture war, with us needing to always be on the morally/politically high ground else your a filthy inhuman nazi them who must be refunded/canceled. You get older and realize most people no matter the lean have some level of dogshit half baked politics or some other degree of mental emotional whackiness from past trauma or poor life circumstances causing them to be imperfect animals with dumb fucking biases. That’s humanity and the heart of darkness for ya. You can choose to associate the imperfections of the creator with the creation, or you can try to decouple them and see them as separate entities linked by causality.

I do eventually plan on making some scripts and a custom web interface to interact with/expose some local services on my network once I have the basics of HTML covered as part of a portfolio thing so would like to cover my ass early and not have problems later

SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?English4·25 days ago“The Grey” is the first thing to pop into my head.
The stupid meme worthy part is the way wolves are presented as a threat in the movie is so over the top like old childrens folklore level omnipresent coked out superwolves with a 100 mile killing radius stripping the territory all threatening life larger than a squrrel and enough intelligence for tactical strategizing to pick an entire group of men 1 by 1.
The way everything else is executed is what turns it around. The cinematography and the emotional human story of the main character guys motivations and interactions with the res5 of the group is fun. It makes it a good watch to spend an hour or two of your life on. The cast has some bangers and the acting is great.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the modern design trends you hate most?English29·25 days agoThe installed appification of everything riddled with trackers when a web browser + site will do. Dead simple minimalistic UI that a toddler can figure out how to use. Every product is designed to account for the lowest common denominators of human intelligence which encourages ‘cant, wont, dont know how’ brain rot instead of making the tech illiterate feel pressured to actually apply themselves to learn. Now we have entire generations of idiots who feel entitled to the pleasant convince of advanced technology but unwilling to understand whats actually going on under the hood or accept responsibility to learn how to use it properly/ethically.
A society built entirely on dead simple convinence and instant gratification is one that fosters the destruction of individual critical thinking skills and mental robustness to troubleshoot/adapt when encountering a problem.
So many people are proud of it, thats the worst part for me. Legitately bragging about making it through life with the bare minimum of braincell rubbing. As if just being an unthinking half-sentient ape with a learned helplessness complex is an ideal state of being worthy of pride.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex now want to SELL your personal dataEnglish32·1 month agoFrom what Ive seen in arguments about this, Plex generally is more accessible with QoL and easier to understand interface for non-techie people to share with family/friends. Something thats hard for nerdy people to understand is that average people are perfectly fine paying for digital goods and services. An older well off normie has far more money than sense and will happily pay premiums just to not have to rub two braincells together with setup or for a nicer quality of experience. If you figure out how to make a very useful plug-an-play service that works without the end user of average intelligence/domain knowledge stressing about how to set up, maintain, and navigate confusing layouts, you’ve created digital gold.
This isn’t the fault of open source services you can only expect so much polish from non-profit voulenteer. Its just the nature of consumer laziness/expectation for professional product standards and the path/product of least resistance.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Advice for picking a PSU for server class GPUs? Also a question about adapter cableEnglish2·1 month agoThank you! Putting the parts I have now into the pc part picker shows an approximate draw of 334W. Adding 65W on top of that to account for p100 max draw is 400w expected draw. The 1070ti I have has an expected draw of 150W adding that on would draw 550W which seems in range of 700W psu.
Theoretically my current 450w PSU could handle p100 maybe but 50w overhead is slim.
Budget is everything to me right now the 1050W PSU are like 150$ while that 700W psu is 50$. When things aren’t so tight and if I get deep enough down the rabbit hole to chain multiple server class GPUs ill probably be in a better spot to afford an expensive psu along with a big batch of cards.
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Will the motherboard in my decade old desktop pc work with any new graphics card?English1·1 month agoThank you for the great response! Yeah not quite a decade but were getting there. For some reason I think lots of people are still stuck in 2010s when they hear 10 year old computer parts they think subconsciously think of duo Pentiums from the early 2000s not intel i7s and AMD ryzens lol.
I decided to get try a nvidia p100 instead. it was more in my price range + it allows cuda with the nvidia card I have in another desktop I could chain up. Thanks for looking up the ARC anyways! Though do you know why it says the p100 says a bus length of 4096 while most other cards are like 128? P100 specs
SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Will the motherboard in my decade old desktop pc work with any new graphics card?English2·1 month agoThe CPU in that motherboard is the amd ryzen 5 2600 6 core 12 thread 3.4ghz. The GPU is AMD RX 580 6GB. I would be buying more for computational work on a headless server than games, I’ve never had any issue with modern games because im old and okay living with 1080p + medium settings it all looks fine compared to the PS1 stuff I grew up with.
Im only really concerned with bumping up VRAM GB and hopefully TFLOP speeds. I would really really like at least 16gb of vram but it doesn’t come cheap in todays market, the intel arc stuff was a good deal compared to what nvidia and amd want for similar numbers. Ill be limited by pcie version 3 no matter what. Theres some older nvidia cards that also fit the bill that I saw thanks to some other user recommendations but maybe if im spending the money just get the newest GPU series and upgrade all the other parts later?

SmokeyDope@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentationEnglish19·1 month agoI volunteer as developer for a decade old open source project. A sizable amount of my contribution is just cooking up decent documentation or re-writting old doc from the original module authors written close to a decade ago because it failed me information wise when I needed it. Programmers as it turns out are very ‘eh, the code should explain itself to anyone with enough brains to look at it’ type of people so lost in the sauce of being hyperfluent tech nerds instantly understanding all variables, functions, parameters, and syntax at very first glance at source code, that they forgot the need for re-translation into regular human speak for people of varying intelligence/skill levels who can barely navigate the command line.
