Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Seeking advice for selfhosting critical dataEnglish
2·1 year agoThat’s correct, I also pay for their cheapest VPS, which is about $3, pretty good overall for my purposes!

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Seeking advice for selfhosting critical dataEnglish
4·1 year agoWhat @AtariDump@lemmy.world said is correct, if it’s critical data, 3-2-1 is necessary. I personally use BuyVM as my offsite as it’s got pretty cheap storage (~$5USD/1TB/month), but if you’ve got family or friends with a decent internet connection, it’s trivial to set up a remote sync job to any offsite Proxmox Backup Server, perhaps on a box stored at their house.
Now, just to throw it out there, my actual ‘critical data’ is way smaller than my total backed up data, including my media library, random ISOs, etc. - it can be worthwhile to determine if you really need to backup everything offsite or if you can sort out some less necessary data, and only upload some data to a remote server. Maybe the answer is yes, and you’ll need to account for that!

15·1 year agoI’ve been experimenting with Hugo to make simple websites. It’s got a very minor learning curve, and plenty of templates to get you started. I like it!

Vaporwave@lemmy.world•Favorite Vaporwave mixes???English
2·1 year agoWhat is radio but an unending mix of songs?!
Here are two of the radio stations I listen to, it’s great for discoverability.
SomaFM - Vaporwaves is an ad free station from San Francisco. I own the T-Shirt!
Nightwave Plaza is great. I find they tend to have slightly more global vaporwave artist picks. They also have a Discord!

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What OS should I use for self-hosting that doesn't require extensive terminal knowledge?English
3·1 year agoThis is Lemmy, not the other place. Please be kinder. No need to abuse people trying to help, especially when OP did mention they wouldn’t mind learning if its easy enough.

8·1 year agoI’m self hosting this, and it works pretty well. It can be integrated with Google Calendar with some effort, and it works with CalDAV (which I’m using through NextCloud).

Games@lemmy.world•Retro Boy is a simple Game Boy emulator written in Rust that can be played on the webEnglish
17·1 year agoYou′re walking in the woods
There’s no one around and your phone is dead
Out of the corner of your eye, you spot them
(Written in Rust)
They’re following you, about 30 feet back
They get down on all fours and break into a sprint
They’re gaining on you
“Written in Rust!”
You’re looking for your car but you′re all turned around
They’re almost upon you now
And you can see there’s blood on their face
My God, there′s blood everywhere!
Running for your life (from writing in Rust!)
They’re compiling a knife (it′s written in Rust!)

26·1 year agoPerhaps the ICP should appeal more to the everyday layperson…a gender neutral term coined in 1972, just seventeen years before the unrelated 1989 release of Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up the Jam.

Linux@programming.dev•Managing windows and focusing specific apps on Linux?English
2·2 years agoI know you said Gnome, but if you are willing to look at Plasma, I’ve just started using Bismuth on KDE Plasma and I think it can do at least a chunk of that. It can set particular sizes with Window Rules, it looks to have a quite robust shortcut system, including resizing windows, swapping, rotating, or changing layouts. As for the focus vs open, KRunner lets you choose the active application when you type it’s name. There’s also this: https://github.com/academo/ww-run-raise but I have not used it and cannot vouch for that.
