Not that jank, it looks great.

Veronica is fantastic. Love her video editing, it reminds me more of the early days of YouTube.

I use Gramps and it’s good. Has a Linux client too. My Family Tree is also good but windows only.

8 Mbps up here because Australia

If you really wouldn’t want a coworker seeing it, it’s NSFW I would say. Personally I think someone even seeing a forum that looks like Reddit open on your work computer is a bit NSFW, but that’s what the tag is for.

I use TrueNAS SCALE at home on my NAS and since they ditched kubernetes (and Truecharts, which was a happy little accident) it’s been great.

It’s free.

New hardware is incorporated into the kernel reasonably regularly IMO.

ZFS file system

Pretty easy to control with GUI exclusively

Docker is now very easy to use, images are community supported mostly but I’ve not had issues with Jellyfin, *arr, pihole, reverse proxy etc.

This is the easiest way for sure.

P in that case Nicole’s DMs are the Lemmy women’s sub.

Had Jellyseer break on me again on Truenas scale, something about a jellyfin API blah blah blah. Decided that Sonarr and Radarr are fine enough to interface with that I don’t need it and deleted the image.

I did a physics degree and am comfortable with Joules, but in the context of electricity bills, kWh makes more sense.

All appliances are advertised in terms of their Watt power draw, so estimating their daily impact on my bill is as simple as multiplying their kW draw by the number of hours in a day I expect to run the thing (multiplied by the cost per kWh by the utility company of course).

I was really confused by that and that the decided units weren’t just in W (0.1 kW is pretty weird even)

Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn’t imagine Keepass+syncthing.

Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.

Hahaha, touché. To be fair though, a lot of people struggle with email.

And if an easier version of email existed, email mightn’t have caught on.

He’s more than capable of joining the fediverse, but he’s also a UI/UX designer. I would say his main issue with the fediverse is the amount of friction between a normie being exposed to the concept and actually signing up and engaging with it.

You have to admit that it isn’t the simplest thing to do. People have to understand the concept of the fediverse, find an instance that will accept them, sign up (with confirmation required from the instance mods) and then find out how to find communities that they are interested in.

It’s not about whether a tech-savvy person can figure it out with some effort, it’s about whether normal people can transition away from a monolithic, streamlined, social media to it.

Oh yeah, we’re not at the sweet spot for mass yet. 10 times bigger would still be fine IMO!

I completely agree.

Reddit is worse because of its size, resulting in problems with spam/low effort posts and comments.

This smaller size is a bit of a double-edged sword though. If I want to discuss cooking/chef knives with people, for example, there isn’t a niche community specifically for that topic. Maybe in this way it’s best for people to head outside of Lemmy to other forums for more specific interests, and Lemmy can be more tech/general discussion oriented.

I haven’t quite figured that out yet.

I think it’s because people trend a lot older on Lemmy than Reddit. I imagine a lot of the more vile opinions you see on Reddit are teenagers. I’ve not seen much unhealthy discussion/ad hominen on Lemmy yet.

I think there’s an obsidian extension that allows you to basically save the notes in a github repository, making it cloud based kind of.

Oh damn, that’s disappointing about the subscription.

Yep Docker is currently possible, but there’s plenty of threads discussing that it is being phased out.

But yeah, I suppose the solution could be a VM running Debian and then Docker within that.

I think the IX Systems would rather Truenas scale be an enterprise OS, and have short patience for people learning the ropes.

Kubernetes to me is a lot more complicated than Docker, but I’m sure in an enterprise environment where you have many systems to administrate it is superior. Docker would be a better, simpler solution for a person at home with one computer being used for their personal virtualisation.

I think going back in time I would go for Unraid, and use Docker containers. Apparently it is better documented, more beginner-friendly. It is a one-off payment, but it is reasonably cheap. Community seems much friendlier too.

Bear in mind I haven’t used unraid, so potentially there is a grass is always greener situation going on here.

That said, I have thought about running a VM in TrueNAS so I don’t need to muck around with kubernetes and using a discord chat for troubleshooting.

All the best!
