Depends what services you need. I used to be doing a lot with my server but then it became just static web hosting and nextcloud which I replaced with the cheapest google storage plan and gitlab pages. These days power usage might be workab

Or your own money. I did the math and I was spending more money on just electricity to run my home server than it would cost to pay for the services it provided. Not to mention the initial cost of the hardware you need to host it. A raspber

The full PDF spec is insane and allows for web requests and javascript. Most readers do not implement the anti features but adobe's tools will.

This could never happen because you get things like github/lab pages which gives you a subdomain which you can run JS on. Anyone could create a new public suffix at any time.

Its still painfully low spec even for casual gaming. Sitting for 5 minutes waiting for Animal Crossing or Crash team racing to load is not fun for anyone.

I would have thought Fedora Silverblue would be the perfect OS for this kind of thing. The OS is a read only image you mount and to update you simply mount the newer image. Its the same model mobile OSs use and it means update failures are

Because SATA and NVMe are both extremely fast compared to SD cards. Just take a look at the painfully long loading times on the Switch to see the difference.

Fedora updates everything that isn't a breaking change in between releases. Stuff like major gnome versions or replacing core components with similar but incompatible components gets held back for a major release.

Make it part of google one. "Buy any google one storage plan and get google meet for free". At least then they can tie it to something people are used to paying for.

It's some what of a recent thing. They are bringing in new laws to allow the grid to shut off your solar feed back when there is an oversupply but currently it just causes a big problem and negative prices.

Yes, they ask you if you need one at the time of purchase and if you don't ask for one you don't pay the $19 for one. Trying to account for what the original BoM would have been with one in the box is an impossible effort and not

I and everyone I know already has plenty of USB-A and USB-C bricks laying around. The things last forever and build up. So its more like every other company gives you a bit of junk you will not use.

The packet says do not put them in your ear. If you push them too far you could damage your ear drum. Who knows how likely this is if you are careful though.

Even intended use means using plastic utensils which release toxic crap when heated and chip off leaving little plastic bits in your food. There is no safe way to use non stick pans.

MacOS has a weird solution to throttling. They put a fake process in the process list which looks like it consuming x% of the resources but really it is just blocking some usage to allow the CPU to cool.

CPU usage is an incredibly complex metric that doesn't really explain what is actually going on. I noticed while running a benchmark I can get my CPU to 50c and 100% usage and it stays steady like that. But then I tried prime95 and my

Welfare can not work in an entirely free market system. Thankfully I do not believe in subscribing uncritically to one line of thought.

My point is that SF can not fix welfare on its own because it doesn't have the power to stop people from other states moving in. It either needs to be a nation wide fix or for the city/state to become its own country.

I laugh at the thought that every company trying to host 20 vendor apps is more secure than having the company that wrote the apps host them. Self hosted apps get updated on a much much slower schedule and don't have access to the brai

Most places deal with this via border restrictions. One country with better welfare does not allow themselves to be flooded with people from other countries. This problem can not be solved by one city without the ability to restrict movemen

Self hosting doesn't last forever and doesn't have zero ongoing costs. At one point I was running my own nextcloud server at home and realized that I am paying more in electricity costs to keep it running than google drive costs.
