You know Google drive? You know how it doesn't work when the internet is out? You know how we live in rural USA so the internet is out every other day?

Yeah that computer in the corner is my own Google drive that still works when the internet is out.

I can sometimes tell what county (not country) I am in from differences in the design of street signs (mostly the street name signs at stop lights), changes to the look of highway overpasses, and whether or not Flock cameras outnumber people.

I ran a Tor relay on one of my spare servers for a while, and my god did that thing get port scanned. Even two years after I stopped hosting the relay, it was still getting pinged every 5-10 seconds (while my other servers tend to get pinged "only" once ever 20-30 seconds).

I use Nextcloud, but as you said it's a bit big, and with each update it's slowly turning into more of the entire G-Suite.

I've used filebrowser, but be aware that until just a few days ago, it gave out access to a shell. Even with that turned off, I'd be very weary of allowing access from out of the VPN. I had a server pwned with filebrowser appearing to be the vector, and to my memory console access was disabled for the account most likely breached.

Lemmy only. No other social media, be it Twitter, Instagram, or any federated/FOSS alternative.

I still read some Reddit, but only signed out and I certainly don't post.

I have one of those in my car today.

Similar story here. I once had an assignment which was a part of an art contest with the theme "how to make the world a better place."

I simply took a photo of a tree and gave it the description of "I would make the world a better place by planting more native plants."

I got an award for it and didn't think of it beyond that. Several years later I dated a friend from then, and it turns out I got first place in the entire school. She got second and put in effort with a drawing.

I wouldn't mind if online textbooks had a button on the side that is just a looser search (like what Google was a few years ago).

It'd be handy if I could type in "gravity problem with the bunny" instead of having to either search for "bunny" and flip through all the results, or try to remember/guess the exact wording of the problem.

You probably could still call it AI too, since there's likely some small machine learning model involved in that search.

For some reason I can't find that exact frame, but I believe this is the source. Brut makes good shit. https://youtu.be/InnwzzJa8ek

It also could be a different video from him. Looks like Brut, though.

To add on this, my server is running a 4790k, and that's plenty for all common tasks. While faster is always nicer, the threshold for good enough is very low for server tasks.

I agree. Forgejo itself is stable and I love it. Gitea never gave me trouble and that carried over.

Actions is just a bit hard to setup, at least for me, when I tried. We'll get there one day. (I believe the big thing is really just documentation.)

First of all, I actually do prefer Forgejo Actions over Woodpecker. Once set up, my only problem with it (so far) is almost certainly caused by my infrastructure and isn't inherent to FA itself. Pecker, on the other hand, is quite a bit easier to set up and better documented, but I had that issue where it would disconnect from Forgejo and need a few buttons pressed to fix.

This one is just FA being weird:

If you want to deploy the Runner using Docker, the documentation is poor at best. From both a security and documentation standpoint, having it in its own VM is better, but you can do Docker. You just have to read and figure out more on your own. Reading through the example deployments from the documentation will eventually lead you to something along the lines of this (which I copy-pasted from my deployment rather than search for again):

forgejo-runner:
  image: code.forgejo.org/forgejo/runner:6.3.1
  restart: always
  user: 1000:1000
  environment:
    - DOCKER_HOST=tcp://dind:2376
  volumes:
    - runner_cache:/data
  depends_on:
    - dind
  command: >-
    bash -ec '
    forgejo-runner create-runner-file --name runner --instance https://${DOMAIN} --secret ${RUNNER_SECRET};
    sed -i -e "s|\"labels\": null|\"labels\": [\"docker:docker://docker.io/node:22-bookworm\", \"ubuntu-latest:docker://ghcr.io/catthehacker/ubuntu:act-latest\"]|" .runner ;
    forgejo-runner generate-config > config.yml;
    sed -i -e "s|^  network: \"\"$|  network: host|" config.yml ;
    sed -i -e "s|^  envs:$$|  envs:\n    DOCKER_HOST: tcp://dind:2376\n    CONTAINER_HOST: tcp://dind:2376|" config.yml ;
    forgejo-runner --config config.yml daemon
    '

You don't actually need to do this since you could edit the two config files yourself and bind them to the container. This is just how you automatically generate those files... And it's dumb, but it works and it means you don't have to keep track of those files.

This one is probably just my infrastructure: https://lemmy.world/comment/16093731

If you do go for FA in Docker (or Podman) and need some help, just ask. I'll post more of my compose and explain my decisions.
