Does anyone else proudly display the what they self host on their laptop? The hardest part is removing old stickers when you port from one project to another (Trilium and Obsidian for example). People ask me all the time what's this or that sticker. I'm impressed when they can pick one out on their own.
FOSS source is here.
It must be a lot of work to self-host DigitalOcean.
Out of interest by "selfhosting" steam are you running a steam cache or just using it? Or is there something else I'm missing lol
Hehe, why do you have a butthole next to Tux?
I don't get how you "self-host" some of these things like Linux, Ubuntu, Android, and Raspberry Pi. Are you saying you installed them on your computer or am I missing something?
I like the idea of this. Perhaps not on a laptop, but small hexagon badges that show some sort is relation to something. Favorite media, projects, software you're good with, coding languages you a comfortable with, etc. A simple snapshot into someone that can be identified easily, what a great conversation starter.
Since I see both on here,
Trilium > Obsidian
These are really consistent, do you print them yourself?
you self host your own claude llm? damn and here i thought a 14B deepseek ollama instance was good shit - how did you get access to their proprietary weights?
I see Trilium!
Why post this ai generated content? Since when does the docker logo have the Cassandra eye in it?

I think I'm in love. They have such great variety, and the artstyle is so neat. And I love stickers because they are such great conversation starters.
Old HA logo but neat
No, hardest part was obsidian livesync

I'd love if there was a Gravatar-style thing you could choose hexes like these to display as a digital badge. Even better if it was self-hosted.
