  • My take on the scoring

    Very Easy: Multiple easy install methods (e.g., one-command OS package, single binary, and/or Docker). If only one install method it should be single binary or OS package. Great documentation. 18–20 points

    Easy: Limited easy methods or only one. Some configuration may be needed, good documentation. 15–17 points

    Moderate: Docker is the only method or manual setup. Average to pool documentation 11–14 points

    Hard: Complex setup, needs regular updates or custom config (e.g. DNS, spam) 6–12 points

    Very Hard or Proprietary: Little to no self-hosting support, undocumented 0–5 points

  • How to self-host a highly available git server cluster?
  • Have you considered a distributed filesystem such as GlusterFS or DRBD? I believe those support synchronous replication so writes will go to all the configured machines before acknowledging the write. Performance will likely take a hit the greater the number of clusters in the cluster.

  • Full points for Docker

    In my opinion anything that only has docker installation should have points removed. Having it as an option is fine,but having it as the only option has several issues

    1- Not every OS even has docker. Take for example FreeBSD

    2- Many, non technical, people may not have or even know what Docker is. Having it as the only install option actually ads complexity for that group of people

    3- Having to install docker for only one system that you want to install adds an entire layer of complexity and in some cases may even outright discourage someone from installing some software

  • Obsidian is now free for work - Obsidian
  • I use it to track everything..

    Quick notes knowledgebase Follow up (personal and work)

    The great thing about Obsidian is how flexible it is. The bad thing about Obsidian is how flexible it is.. 😀

    I have seen may people comment, or outright leave, Obsidian because because there was too much to learn.. or too many plugins to explore..

    Personally, I only look for plugins if I need something specific. Don't see the point of trying random plugins. Is like spending time finding solutions to a problem you may not have..

    Also, I work on tech and many documents are in markdown. Obsidian makes it easier to read those. Specially the collapse / expand functionality is really great for exploring large docs.. as long as the creators properly used sections (basically # for level 1, ## for level 2..and so on)

  • I use Obsidian between Ubuntu and IOS.. Sync is a bit erratic.. It always... eventually, refreshes, but have not been able to find how to force sync on IOS. Sometimes end up doing trivial changes to see if can get the sync on IOS to trigger.

    Ubuntu client shows when it does sync and it does appear to do it fairly quick.

  • I think we will need a few more lawsuits such as Apple has agreed to pay $95 million to settle a lawsuit alleging that its virtual assistant, Siri, recorded users' conversations without their consent before this is no longer treated as confirmation bias or people been paranoid.

    My wife used to tell me that her adds would change after discussing something and at first I did not believe her, but it just kept happening again, and again. It reached the point that we would put our phones away, discuss something and there is no change in ads about the topic. If we had our phones near adds would change.This would happen on things that we would not see adds for normally. For example we would discuss a trip to a place we have never been and she would start seeing adds about the destination after that.

  • Massive E-Learning Platform Udemy Gave Teachers a Gen AI 'Opt-Out Window'. It's Already Over.
  • I can't even think of any valid reason why Udemy would need GenAI. Closed my account. This is the type of behavior I will not accept from a company. If enough people stood up to the Reddit's and Udemy's of the world they may, ... maybe, be more responsible towards their users and their partners (in this case the people posting courses in Udemy).

  • How do I determine if a CPU is better than another one?
  • If you just do a search for <cpu1 model> vs <cpu2 model> often times you get pointed to sites that can do that comparison for you.

    For example searching for: J5005 vs i3-1115G4

    gave me several links one of which was Intel Core i3-1115G4 vs Pentium Silver J5005 - UserBenchmark

    There were several other sites with similar headers.

    As for best one for Docker, that too you can search. Specially if you use something like perplexity.ai and you ask which of those two is better for docker it gives you a nice comparison along with which areas one is better than the other as it pertains to using Docker. Suspect you can get similar good info from using any Large Language Models (LLM) like ChatGPT or Claude.ai (both of which have free plans)

  • Is there a way to get recommendations for "underrated" songs, or music that is awesome but I might not come across? For instance, I really loved the Peacemaker soundtrack...
  • Many, perhaps most, music services have towards the bottom of an artist page a list of similar artists that you can explore. Also, if you see what compilations a song, or an artist, is on you can see what else is on that collection.

    Also, music services have collections for different styles of music. As you listen to those, if you like a song you can try to see if you like other songs from the same group / artist.

  • If LED bulbs are supposed to last for 10 years, why do I still need to replace them every 9 months?
  • shitty bulbs.

    +1 on that as a potential issue. Don't recall the brand, but I had bought a pack of light bulbs where the whole pack was having issues, to the point I called an electrician to check. When the electrician came and saw the brand he told me "those are garbage" and that he had seen plenty of people having issues with that brand.

    I threw those away, bought some other brand. The exact same places where I was having to replace light bulbs often no longer had any issues.

  • What content do you miss on Lemmy?
  • I think in general we just need more people.. There are communities that exist in Lemmy which are basically empty / inactive that used to be active in Reddit (i.e. Datatabases, Postgresql, FreeBSD subreddits). Perhaps as more people discover Lemmy those smaller / niche communities will see more traffic.
