Hey, cool idea! I’ve also got a bunch of dockers and services running on a swarm on multiple devices. Like any good project, it’s on it’s like 3rd or 4th iteration now, having run into some roadblock each time. I structure most of my services into stacks. For example, I have a stack for proxy, www, monitoring, and of course the 'ol arr stack. Anyways, I keep all my notes on the stack compose yaml files that seems to work for me. I only interact with docker on the cli because portainer wants me to pay to use docker swarm. But because I’m so adept at docker on the cli, I have recently stumbled across gemini-cli. Dude, having that to help trouble shoot docker stuff is amazing. It’s really good, but I’d keep it on a short leash.

Oh look it’s only $47,000 and not a monthly subscription, that’s quaint.

Not sure how long ago you tried it. But my first attempt at an install back in 2021 was so much more complicated than when I did it again in 2024. It’s been rock solid ever since. I use the docker all-in-one method, it’s pretty straightforward. When I went back to college, I decided to use it to organize all my classwork, and it’s perfect for that. I still prefer LibreOffice to author papers though.

This is the cheat code. Just stroke the man’s ego, and you can get anything you want.

I hear if your the 10,000 caller to 1-800-IDGAMES you get Carmack on the phone.

I didn’t realize how temporary and disposable Starlink’s satellites were. They incinerate 4 or 5 a day by de-orbiting them into the ozone. Here’s a pretty good CNET article that talks about how they “dispose” of them. IDK, doesn’t seem sustainable. They also mention the bandwidth gains are being diminished with the influx of new users, so their solution is more temporary satellites.

They’re just following in the footsteps of Comcast. The FCC gave SpaceX/Starlink $885.5 million to provide rural broadband after they gave Comcast over $1 billion less than 5 years ago to do the same thing. Starlink actually works out there from what I understand, so I guess that’s something.

I hope they both choke on their own bots.

I’ll just leave this here.

So NixOS is like freebasing Arch, got it. I’m still tempted to spin up a VM, just a taste…

Richest man that the IRS knows about

SearX is great. I self host the docker container for it and I love all the granularity in setting which engine to use for what type of search. I also use Kagi, but that’s because I support what they’re doing more than anything.

A stable diffusion plug-in or something to export 3d models for blender would be awesome. I’ve been waiting for something like that.

I noticed my feed almost immediately changed after Trump was elected. I didn’t change my viewing habits. I’m positive YouTube tweaked the algorithm to lean more right.

Ohh damn, the same dev made Yatse. That’s awesome, I’ve been using that app for years.

Ah, I can’t speak Symfonium’s WebDAV or SMB handling. My music server runs Navidrome that uses the subsonic api. All I have to do is point my music player at my url and I can sync favorites and listen counts across everything, it’s pretty great.

Not FOSS but I use Symfonium to stream music from my Navidrome instance on my NAS while I’m out of the house.

Edit, saw your last comment. What couldn’t you get working?

Not quite as bad as texting all of Hawaii that missiles are inbound, but still interesting. Wonder what they’re testing.

Kinda like a furry dumbbell with claws

That was a wild ride, but it stuck the landing.
