and once your “Verified”, they now can connect a name to an account. Congrats! In some areas of the world, they are looking for certain things you are watching and “making notes”. Or just selling all that info away.

Not this specifically, but I do have a coworker that exclusively uses AI. He gets a lot done dont get me wrong, but all products look…same-y. Also they all use the sorta old version of react which is how I could tell its AI generated. That and the emojis in the README. Templates and CRUD are much faster, but its hard to maintain. I just let him do his thing. He got a lot done in the last 6 months but lately hes been having major issues keeping up with all the projects he pumped out. The AI no longer has the context so its much difficult at least from what hes saying in Teams.

Its still pretty decent with templates/CRUD. But its not so good with anything specific, lying about libraries that dont exist, and forgetting vars/processes. The PRs are funny sometimes.

I love using it at work. Its a great tool to get everything up and running kinda like ansible. Paired with containerization it can make applications more “standard” and easy to spin back up.

That being said, for a home server, it feels like overkill. I dont need my resources spread out so far. I dont want to keep updating my kub and container setup with each new iteration. Its just not fun (to me).

…ok so Im lying about my system for…some reason?

Synapse looks like its using 200M right now. It jumps to 1 GB when being heavily used, but I only use it for piefed and a couple of other local rooms. Honestly its not doing so much for us so we were thinking of getting rid of it. Its irritating to keep having to set up new devices and no one is really using it.

Peertube is much bigger running around 500MB just doing its thing.

Its a single family instance.

Nice read. I’m no longer at keyboard. Good points.

Not to hard

There’s specialized hardware out there since the 80s(?) That does this sort of thing for you. All it takes is one person and now the book is “out”. I worked with one for historical texts. Worked really well. It was so cool to see it in action.

A lot of younger people are into physical media. Its cool to see.

Kobo is cool Now just fyi. Works well with calibre.

The biggest issue I have is ebooks are almost all excusevly sold on amazon. I would give authors my money and not sail the high seas if it ment no DRM.

Welp OP did ask how we set it up. And for a family instance its good enough. The ram was extra that came with the comp. I have other things to do than optimize my family home server. There’s no latency at all already.

It spikes when peertube videos are uploaded and transcoded + matrix sometimes. Have a good night!

Freshrss. Sips resources.

The dd when I want. I have a script I tested a while back. The machine won’t be on yeah. Its just a small image with the software.

Couple of custom bash scripts for the backups. Ive used ansible at work. Its awesome, but my own stuff doesn’t require any robustness.

Hahaha that’s funny. I hope your not serous.

All my services run on bare metal because its easy. And the backups work. It heavily simplifies the work and I don’t have to worry about things like a virtual router, using more cpu just to keep the container…contained and running. Plus a VERY tiny system can run:

1. Peertube
2. GoToSocial + client
3. RSS
4. search engine
5. A number of custom sites
6. backups
7. Matrix server/client
8. and a whole lot more

Without a single docker container. Its using around 10-20% of the RAM and doing a dd once in a while keeps everything as is. Its been 4 years-ish and has been working great. I used to over-complicate everything with docker + docker compose but I would have to keep up with the underlining changes ALL THE TIME. It sucked, and its not something I care about on my weekends.

I use docker, kub, etc…etc… all at work. And its great when you have the resources + coworkers that keep things up to date. But I just want to relax when I get home. And its not the end of the world if any of them go down.

We have an excellent set of videos and creators on the respective communities: !peertube@lemmy.world

Oh nice a real answer! Thanks :)

Oh I dont believe it one bit. Even in the bible it says we wont know (like a thief in the night) so its funny to hear all this online.

So I just made a thing. !betterfediversenews@piefed.social

I’ll get it looking better in a bit. Feel free to post! I personally love to hear what the rest of the community is doing.

No not from the instance. I think that would take @rimu@piefed.social or an admin. Worst that bro can do is ban you from that community.

And to be honest this the first real controversy of piefed. So congrats! Its a real platform now!

Welp the community is dead. Wow that didn’t last long.

I’m kinda sad it was all on piefed.social.

I mostly feel sad for power users like @sunshine@piefed.ca who did quite a bit of the posting over there. Created !betterfediversenews@piefed.social so that we have a place that insnt blocked to talk about new stuff in the fediverse.

No joke, Periodic changing of mods might be a better long term strategy. Or like you said a small election from time to time.
