Anyone self hosting on Mac mini M1/M2?
  • Everyone else has described the complications that a Mac mini would have. So why not consider something else? Lenovo, HP, and Dell make 1l ultra small form factor PCs and they're pretty cheap on eBay. They're also low power. Search for Tiny Mini Micro to find information.

    I have three Lenovo Thinkcentre machines - two with 32gb RAM and one with 64gb RAM - running my Proxmox VE cluster. Highly recommend using those small machines instead of a Mac mini.

  • Final Fantasy X: Why The PS2 Version Reigns Supreme
  • I enjoyed playing through the remaster on PC. But after 100%ing the game, any time I've felt like playing it I just end up running the international version in an emulator.

  • If you didn't have to work, how would you spend your time?
  • Hike the entirety of the AT and the PCT.

    Go bikepacking more frequently. Or go on a months long trip.

    Make art - photography, digital art, linocut.

    Help friends and family with projects.

    That's the short version. There are so many possibilities once you remove the need to be tied to a job/computer for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. I would love to have the freedom to simply not work. I don't want to be rich, I just want to be able to exist without having to work.

  • I'm breakin' rocks in the hot sun
  • Don't use YouTube to MP3, use one of the Deemix variants that downloads music straight from Deezer's servers.

  • I modded a scanner into a camera. This is ‘drake V’
  • I have wanted to build a scanner camera for ages. Nicely done!

  • Can I refuse MS Authenticator?
  • ^ This. We try to enforce Microsoft Authenticator company wide and we will never be able to completely ditch call/text as an option. We have a ton of users that don't have smart phones. We have a policy to only allow call/text if a user specifically requests it.

  • You're a time traveler, what would you do if you went back in time to make the most of it?
  • That would stand out a lot. Probably better to just bring a couple hundred dollars and buy bitcoin when it was worth practically nothing.

  • The lunch rush is dead as Americans live for the weekend, office workers are pinching lunchtime pennies
  • Not surprising. Restaurants have become even more expensive and people already don't have money to waste. Plus many of us are remote or hybrid.

  • Virtual Boy: The bizarre rise and quick fall of Nintendo’s enigmatic red console
  • Going to have to disagree, Teleroboxer and Red Alert were awesome.

  • Chemicals in car interiors may cause cancer — and they’re required by US law:
  • As for why they're getting downvoted, criticizing cars or the use of cars tends to get a lot of negative feedback.

  • Roku OS home screen is getting video ads for the first time
  • Consider an ebike to supplement your car for shorter trips. I've just opted to ride my bikes more.

  • Xbox Console Sales Are Tanking
  • As someone who has dealt with a couple dozen Surface devices in a corporate setting, I cannot recommend them. They're fine when they work. When they have issues though, they are practically impossible to repair. Keyboard port issues, dock connection issues, bricked devices, and even expanding batteries are all issues I've run into. When you have an issue, Microsoft will just swap it out for a different one rather than fix the device.

  • Priorities
  • Thank you for that, definitely an interesting read. I like that they mention that even unpopular games may have people that love it.

  • Visual representation of the cloud
  • Why are those patch cables so long?!

  • What's your fave movie of all time that you love to recommend to people?
  • Amelie. It is by far my favorite movie that isn't animated.

    How to train your dragon (1, 2, and 3). These are my favorite American animated films.

    My Neighbor Totoro. Favorite Japanese animated film.

  • What has everyone been watching lately?
  • Currently watching Yuru Camp S03 and Unnamed Memories. Unnamed Memories was a total surprise for me.

  • Me irl
  • We use Slack for those of us on the IT team, but Teams for everyone else. I despise Teams.

  • What's a common occurrence in your hobby that you think shouldn't be?
  • There are two reasons why I refuse to play MTG now: Wizards of the Coast is shitty and the experience of playing at my local game store.

  • Lower Desoto Falls

    This was taken back in 2017 while the trail to the main falls was closed.

    I created a "Georgia Camp and Hike" community
    lemmy.world Georgia Camp and Hike - Lemmy.world

    Just creating a Lemmy substitute for the GeorgiaCampAndHike subreddit. This is for camping and hiking in the U.S. state of Georgia. # Rules 1. Please be nice. No bigotry, racism, sexism, etc. 2. Keep posts related to Georgia and it’s immediate surrounding states. 3. Will add more rules as necessary....

    Georgia Camp and Hike - Lemmy.world

    There was one like this back on Reddit, but I figured there should be one here too. People won't be too interested in staying on Lemmy unless there's actual content and communities here. So I figured I'd start with something I'm familiar with.
