Love to see the people in here gatekeeping "selfhosting" 🙄
We're all just out here trying to escape big tech. A docker container doesn't suddenly stop becoming "selfhosted" once the hard drive it's on crosses a property line. Who the hell cares, seriously.
Yeah I saw that... not really what I would consider a "web backup" exactly. I was hoping they were rolling out encrypted photo storage plans.
I can't find anything about the web backups in the article or release notes.
Back up an image the entire operating system HD when it's working well. If you ever get overwhelmed with bugs you can always go back to a functioning state.
We all like checking out the latest features and updates but it's important to remember that it's not a race.
It seems we agree on the facts, but not on what "useful" or "helpful" means. I honestly have never, ever considered deciding on what food to serve guests be "labor", but in the interests of replying in good faith I asked an LLM the exact prompt you gave. It gave a long, detailed reply, but here is the first part labeled "1. Welcome / Cocktail Reception":
Mini prosciutto‑wrapped melon balls • Brie & caramelized onion tartlets (store‑bought puff pastry) • Stuffed mushroom caps (herb cream cheese + breadcrumbs)
I want you to consider that this not actually helpful in the slightest, and is fact creating more work. Consider: is there a vendor nearby that has these items as an an option for event planning? Is this a recipe that even exists? Does this information further my mission of having a wedding in any conceivable way?
Those paragraphs are what I'm talking about. The author fails to explain what the LLM actually did that was helpful. It's like saying "I used ChatGPT to plan my wedding menu" without any more details. What did it actually do? Why was it helpful? Those are the things I continue to not understand about these tools.
Skipping AI is not going to help you or your career. Think about it.
OK well I've thought about it and I still don't understand. Surely, this thousand word essay can explain what ""AI"" can do right? Surely it's not the same vague nonspecific claims about "missing out" on the future?
It is simply impossible not to see the reality of what is happening.
Huh. Guess I'm just really dumb then.
I think your URL to the github is a hyperlink back to this post...
I love the description.
Hey everyone, so you just finished setting up the *Arr stack and your dashboards lookin crisp. But you look at your htop and see... unused RAM. It’s disgusting, isn't it?
2025 was the year for me (Fedora Kinoite), Linux in my opinion, is absolutely ready for the mainstream.
I can see you care about this a lot, so please tell me; in your opinion at what point does a PC cease to be "self hosted"? When it's carried across the property line? Maybe if the electricity bill is paid by a roommate?
