Try using the monado runtime instead of SteamVR.

See Kawane Rio’s 15 minute lightning talk about VR on Linux from this year’s FOSDEM:

PHP does actually scale better than something like Lemmy which is written in rust

But sure, you can act like you know more than the Nextcloud devs

Isn’t Opencloud just extended Nextcloud? (Still PHP)

Also, nextcloud core components are written in Rust, the PHP just handles incoming requests.

Build scripts are often written in bash, yes, but I would say that you should find a utility program, or write your own utility in python, if you’re breaking out sed. It’s very hard to read code like this, no matter the team size.

There’s probably only 100-300 usages of sed in the entire nixpkgs repo, with over 100,000 packages.

I definitely agree Linux is easier to maintain and build code on than Windows, but yeah abusing sed is not really an ideal use case 😅

who in their right mind would try to do this on Linux

I was trying to ask about this at kubecon. As far as I know, Neonephos is more about making software for public cloud services with EU and German funding, and tied to SAP. Public code for public money.

I’m not entirely sure what EuroStack is, but there was an open letter from 100+ companies supporting it and a general idea of investing in European IT and open standards, and divesting from American IT. SAP and LF were not on that letter.

Kubernetes is more stable than docker compose. Docker compose is fishing for containers after the ship capsized. Frustrating and nothing works out of the box.

We’re getting close though!

Jag tänker att de minskar budgeten för försvar och utbildning utan att ta ansvar för det.

Kanske också är det nånting som höjer avkastning och utdelningar för hela fastighetsbranschen.

Bolag som Academiska Hus har hög vinstkrav och höjer hyrorna på alla inom forskning och utbildning, men politiker svarar inte med en höjd budget för utbildning.

“staten höjer hyrorna men inte bostadsbidraget”

Ah, ok I see.

Nope, you don’t need any VPS to use it, it comes with an SFTP interface.

offsite backup for $2/TB and no download fees, 1/3rd the price of B2.

Very cool! Fun fact, this is basically a simplified version of bitcoin mining.

In order to mine a reward of 3 bitcoin, you just need to find a sha-256 hash that is lower than 2.7×10⁶⁷

https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/85896/mining-difficulty-and-leading-zeros

The world currently calculates around 780 bitcoin exahashes/s, so one of these $300k hashes is found about every 10 minutes on average.

Hetzner storage box is super cheap and works with rclone. They have a web interface for configuring regular zfs snapshots too so you don’t have to worry about accidental deletions/ransomware.

So does codeberg.org

I’m looking at the future and what might be good replacement that offers a blend of power-efficiency, flexibility, and storage cost.

Any modern CPU will improve energy efficiency. AMD AM4 platform and Intel N100 are very cheap. AMD SP3 platform is also very cheap and has a ton of PCIe lanes and memory expandability for gpus, NVMe, and running lots of VMs.

For storage cost, used hdds are currently $8/TB, generic NVMe is currently $45, and used enterprise SSDs are $50/TB, decide which you want to invest in depending on your needs. Used enterprise drives will be the fastest and most durable for databases and RAID.

SSD prices are expected to decrease faster than HDD prices, and will probably overtake HDDs for value in ~5 years.

About dGPUs, Intel A310 is the best transcoding Gpu out there. Used Nvidia datacenter gpus probably have the best vram/$ and pytorch compatibility for AI

32TB SSDs will be cheaper than hard drives by 2028

Humans know to drive more carefully in low visibility, and/or to take actions to improve visibility. Muskboxes don’t.

Should work well for that!

If you use cloudflare for dns only and turn cloudflare proxying off, none of your data or traffic goes to cloudflare’s servers. They just act as your dns server, telling your devices what IP to go to.
