A friend of mine once created this mash-up for MTV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7XwhRhRSvo Still one of my all-time favorite tracks.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•XPipe - A connection hub for all your servers: Status update for the v16 releaseEnglish
1·6 months agoAfter trying it for a while, I’ve now bought a license. Really cool app.
I only have an issue with scaling, but I created an issue in Github for that.Edit: nvm, I just failed in finding the right setting :-)

2·7 months agoThis looks very nice. A question, we use Teleport, and it does discover all hosts. But when connecting, I need to configure the username for every host separately. Can’t I set a default somewhere?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•New server for the family, Proxmox or TrueNAS, LXC or Docker?English
91·7 months agoI stopped self-hosting stuff that’s for the family. In case something happens to me, no way my wife is going to keep this stuff running. And the kids are too young. So they would lose everything.
Family stuff goes in managed solutions (like Proton). Personal and public stuff is selfhosted.
Just something to consider.
You should be able to cancel and/or change it:

VACUUMwould be reason enough to migrate :-) But I think overall it’s best to keep up-to-date and a few minutes downtime is worth it.
This is for the Lemmy.World server (just the physical box, not the related VMs). Around 12TB last month.

Technology@lemmy.world•Tenacious iPhone user finally unlocks phone locked for almost a decadeEnglish
63·1 year agoOoh an iPhone that’s been locked for 50 years, I wonder what iPhones looked like in 1974!
I haven’t read this. But I know you can unlock your iPhone using your icloud account.
(Still, happy I switched to android this year)
It would have been better if they communicated to us first. I don’t disagree that user signups should be spread over instances. We now have a link to https://lemmyverse.net on our signup page so people can check if another instance would fit them better.

5·1 year agoYeah that went wrong when copy/pasting the text, I’ll fix it.
I do host some stuff myself 😉 but there’s one thing to keep in mind.
Don’t self host stuff that your family still needs after you’re gone. Unless they are self host nerds like you. I stopped self hosting our mail and docs for example.
Would you agree?
I did register writefreely.world planning to host that one day, but I need some more selfhosting nerds to help out running all these instances :-) The foundation is now already running a few dozen Fedi instances :-D









Luckily we don’t own the server, we just rent it :-)
