If I wasn’t using so many other Nextcloud apps besides the file storage I would switch.

If this isn’t cyberpunk dystopia I don’t know what is. I’ll crosspost to !aboringdystopia@lemmy.world.

Wouldn’t LW have to upgrade their instance? They’ve been stuck on 0.19.3 since forever.

Brilliant!

And then a baby on a tricycle drives by casually.

So, what did you do?

Just for drive redundancy it’s awesome. One drive fails you just pull it out, put in a new one and let the array rebuild. I guess the upside of hardware RAID is that some even allow you to swap a disk without powering down. Either way, you have minimal downtime.

I guess a better way would be to have multiple servers. Though with features like checksums in BTRFS I guess a RAID is still better because it can protect against bitrot. And with directly connected systems in a RAID it is generally easier to ensure consistency.

I’d stay away from hardware RAID controllers. If they fail you’re gonna have a hard time. Learned that the hard way. With a software RAID you can do what you proposed. Just put the disk in another system and use it there.

Donald Trump is pretty funny.

Port forwarding is what you’re looking for. You almost certainly can configure that in your router. You tell it what the port in the outside should be and to what IP and port in your LAN it should go.

Edit: Just saw your other comments. I’m a bit at a loss.

NPM won’t help you here. As you said, it’s only for http. You will have to set up port forwarding in your router. But as far as I recall Minecraft changes its port with every game. So you could either change that in your router every time you start another game.

But it would be better (for security as well) to set up a VPN. Many routers actually have that built in.

That is, if your goal is to have your Minecraft server reachable through the internet.

For DNS you will need a Dynamic DNS service to let the name always point to your public IP. For this as well many routers have built-in functionality. Maybe even a preferred service.

If I had a nickel for every time I had to change my ssh key algorithm I’d have two nickels.

Which isn’t much but it’s concerning that it happened twice.

417 Expectation Failed: Describes my life too well.

507 Insufficient Storage Is the reason.

Everyone always praised Myst for its great graphics. I always thought it was cheating because it was pre-rendered.

Trouble is that there are enough millennials who also have absolutely no clue about computers. Between dude-bros who won’t touch that nerd shit and girls who got told by their nerd boyfriend’s that the computer will start to burn if they click anything besides their allowed icons a vast majority of people are glad if they know how to turn on the computer and print out their document.

Yes, there are probably a lot more computer literate millennials than in other generations. But even there it pretty much depends on family and friends. And in a pirate community on Lemmy most of the people will belong to the tech savvy bubble.

In our friend group even the most computer illiterate kid knew how to set up a LAN without a DHCP server. Their younger siblings had no idea a LAN was even a thing.

My wife’s ex always told her that she couldn’t understand how to work with a computer. Her older brother who works in IT wouldn’t explain anything to her either. They were pretty astonished when they heard that she had installed a GPU by herself (which most people here know is trivial). Which gave her enough confidence to fix her VCR by herself.

I mean, I’m pretty sure it would be a good learning experience so I would really not regret it.

Yeah, that as well. You have to pay a special licensed packer to pack the backup parachute.

Kinda triggered by this post. My father had that happen to him for his 99th jump on a Friday the 13th. He considers that his lucky day because most parachutes have a backup parachute which he got to use that day for the first time.

So no, skydivers just look for their parachute after it failed to open properly and they had to deploy the backup because those things are fucking expensive.

Their NES and SNES mini consoles were also just off the shelf ARM SBCs running emulators. If I recall correctly people even found signatures of release groups in some of the ROMs.

It took me years to start the Monkey Island Series because the cover for Monkey Island 2 was too scary for me.
