Welp, this won’t last long. Especially after getting coverage like this.

I’ve put together two servers for self hosting a lot of services for myself, rather than relying on platforms that continually get worse.

The one on top, a retired Datto backup machine, hosts TrueNAS scale with a bunch of different services (Pihole, Jellyfin, Immich, etc.) and our network shares. The bottom one, Dell PowerEdge R620, runs Fedora server. I plan to use it for locally hosted game servers, but it just runs Minecraft (AllTheMods 10).

I’ve used knowledge I’ve gained in the IT space to set up the networks, and even have a VLAN running for an Ubuntu server VM of which I host for a coworker to learn on.

Cookie Clicker… Lol

Dang that’s a weak attempt at a clickbait article…

The meme is funny, but I’d love to know when this meetup happened lol

The episodic rollout of SQ42 is presumed to be a way to inject new cash into the studio alongside reported plans to release higher priced ships and the rumored third game.

What?.. Higher priced ships? You’ve got to be joking…

One of my favorite ships in the game, the Drake Corsair, is already $250. It’s a great all-rounder, but it’s not even a large ship comparitively! And they’re going to start charging more for the newer ships?!

They just released a new ship as well, the RSI Zeus MKII, which is yet another $175. And that doesn’t even mention some of the larger ships like the Anvil Carrack, sitting at an insane $600, and the Origin 890 Jump at $950…

And if that’s not bad enough, they’ve had concept ships for years available for purchase in the $1,500-$2,000 range. How can these ships get more expensive?

So if working at McDonald’s is now a form of punishment… What’s that saying about the job itself even if you are being paid?

At what point can you be paid a low enough wage to where you’re essentially working at McDonald’s as a punishment for existing? Very weird standard their setting with this decision…

I didn’t realize there were mods that could do that… What are some games that you’ve used this on?

Did this post receive more engagement than the game itself?..

Server to host media. Super easy to set up and can run on a Windows client. Don’t even need an independent server to run it on. https://jellyfin.org/

https://kodi.tv/ (or https://libreelec.tv/ for an OS that boots to just Kodi)

Application to watch through Kodi https://github.com/jellyfin/jellycon

Client to run Kodi on: MeLE PCG02 Mini PC Stick https://a.co/d/1EGnekO

If you didn’t want to install LibreELEC to the PC and just want to keep Windows, you could run Kodi in Kiosk mode and it would boot directly to it just like LibreELEC.

I have not watched normal TV in years, let alone an ad on my TV. I spoke to my neighbors one day and figured out they were paying ~$60 a month for all their streaming services, and they’re STILL getting ads…

Stuff like this is unacceptable, and I refuse to partake in the lunacy and delusion that is modern television.

That unfortunately didn’t work, but I really do appreciate your response.

I just had to add an entry for my uid and then “forceuid”, and it worked!

That worked! Thank you very much!
