I was imagining a “I just wiped my hard drive and flashed the current version of Debian. Let’s get basic services up.”

I wish there was a “hey watch me code/self host” channel that helped noobs see how to approach the problem of starting. Usually their is a “hey watch me code” YouTube that is old enough to have a critical breaking point (some library updated) so a noob finds it impossible.

If you are successful in this, perhaps a twitch channel walking through the basics running on a regular ish basis

Better question, can big ag dope up all the cows in unsanitary conditions to lower their costs by 10 cents per pound (nobody cares about mystical superbugs) /s

I don’t suppose you own curtains?

Savory is kinda salty. Umami is kinda buttery

Cost of electricity is non zero. Distributed computing between pis might be the most cost effective way (hardware and electricity)

Can activity pub change it’s terms to say that all crawlers that use this must be gnu open sources and all information crawled must be open to the public on gnu open sources software (no crawling to a private enterprise)?

My understanding is all the big tech companies are scared of what happened with router software (openwrt) and they don’t want to be forced to let competition be a foss community via gnu licensing.

A lot of “degoogling” talk has discussed how to degoogled email in a graceful way (Gmail has huge market share). Let me find that community.

Edit: based on that post, you probably want fastmail to selfhost. Now the official API of mail clients is jmap, so it may not be “rest” and you may not be able to find a “reliable” rest api

Edit final: check this out https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_mail_servers And I still don’t know what ones have a rest api.

Most rpi heat sinks have a foam insulator acting as a sticky tape. Remove it and use thermal paste

I am willing to fiddle: I fried the motherboard’s graphics card on my laptop and I then replaced it by using the manual alone. Does this require fiddling with software? Does it work out of the box? Some motherboard bios will give overclocking(OC) options. Does Libreboot give OC options, RAID drivers, or boot security options (encrypted OS)? If i wanted to take my current Franken-desktop and switch out the BIOS/UEFI and keep the OS, could this do it gracefully?

I am mostly just curious, but I like the idea of increasing the amount of FOSS on my devices.

Please make a blog post about your migration. I’m in the same boat.
