I'm looking to start my own server, and was going to dive into YouTube tutorials. Do you have any recommendations to offer?

Service wise, I wanted to start with a pi hole, and maybe a music server or something to store pictures from my phone. Maybe host my own ss14 server too!

Hardware wise, i was going to start with a raspberry pi (of some sort?)

Any tips, references, or suggestions are greatly appreciated ❀️

 

My experience πŸ˜‘High cost work with little to no accountability.

You can count on them doubling the estimate every single time, and you have to keep on them just to make sure the work gets done.

Just had one set of subcontractors throw away material for other fixes... Lead group days that the ones involved are no longer a part of the project, so we're on the hook for even more.

Thinking back, i have always been unhappy with the work done by a contractor. I'm not asking for much, painters paint an area, plumbers stop leaks, drywall dudes fix the water damage... And the job is always left with areas unpainted, pipes not connected, and holes in the drywall that were not there before.

Have you ever been happy with a contractors work? What did they do for you?

Lock up problem (lemmy.world)
 

Hi guys, been having a problem for a week now in fedora 43.

After half an hour of light use, my kde keyboard starts crashing at regular intervals, the taskbar is unresponsive, and the shutdown greeter will crash if i try to restart or shut down. I have to power cycle the system to turn it off, not the best.

Looking for anyone also experiencing the problem has not yielded any hits, so I'm posting here πŸ˜…

Thus far i have tried: -Restarting -Disabling Firefox video decoding (closest fix i could find in searches) -Rolling back to my previous Friday backups

The issue persists πŸ˜“

I don't know enough about Linux to troubleshoot the problem effectively πŸ˜…

Problems shopping (lemmy.world)
 

I can't stand touch, and look unhappy most the time.

Today i had a choke point hip check and a "i need help" lady asking me for judgement on which of her melons was ripest.

I hate going "browse" shopping because women are weird. I usually get in, get what i need, and gtfo.

I'm married, 44, overweight, wearing a black puffy coat, and balding.

My wife makes fun of me because of how uncomfortable i am with people getting in my personal space.

She caught a shot of a lady reaching between my legs to get a bag of chips today, and I'm ultra skeeved. Ruined my whole fucking day. 🫩

If a man did this they would get kicked out of the dang trader Joe's.

 

Thank you everyone for your insight, comments, and help with the process! I'm started with Fedora, and after some brief confusion between Gnome and Plasma, I'm off! :D

5/5 stars, would upgrade again!

 

Hi everyone, I'm planning on moving from w11 to kubuntu (lts release - 24.04). I'm a gamer at heart, a game designer by education, and wanting to get away from Windows. I could really use some top tips, best practices, and things to look out for. I have run Linux on a Chromebook, but never as my primary PC.

I'm preparing by copying tax info, critical documents, game prototypes, and D&D documents to a USB.

Then run Linus from a different USB on restart?

Thank you for your help, and any references to specific how-to's πŸ˜….
