Reminds me of my childhood :-)
In high school we used to play card games. I was wearing glasses. The others (the smart ones only) could see my cards in my glasses, until I learned how to hold my cards properly and hide them.
I have 3 separate machines:
That fat home server with NAS and VM’s etc.
A Pi serving my smart home.
A plastic router with OpenWrt doing DNS and (I like to believe) some security, and giving WiFi to many small devices.
They all run 24/7 but I just don’t want everything to be dead and dark when one machine is down for whatever reason.

Tools. So what.
You know, AI was able to lock up my computer in less than a minute!
You know, I won’t let AI do that to mine.
We don’t know about all programmers, but we know one at least now.
You don’t need AI. Take some basic programming courses.
There is no favorite. There is only the lesser of several evils, and usually it changes after a few years.
I say, this mod has held you in very high regard by giving you an answer at all 😉
Unix? Come on, really?
What is Unix in 2024?
This will be the spec for my next server. The current one is smaller, and several years old
I have several different requirements for my server, for example, my son does video editing and needs lots of storage. I want to experiment with more VM’s and containers, therefore RAM and threads.
Do you think people just beginning could get buy on 4 cores and 8 GB RAM for a while?
For most people I think they just want to have some NAS and a reliable machine. But please grant them 16 GB, otherwise they would ask why their laptop has so much more than their server :-)
I would absolutely want the extra router because most people have one from their service provider. For self hosting, you want an additional router with your own software.
The hypothesis is that $150 of equipment to avoid dozens of hours of software configuration
OK fair try, but you also need to sell me 20-25 TB of disk space on 5 spindles (plus a SSD for the bootdisk), 64 GB RAM (with a chance to go up to 128) and the CPU must have 16 threads or more.
learning should be a basic human right!
Education is a basic human right (except maybe in Usa, then it should be one there)
Wait… they actually STOLE the cheese from the cows?
😆
The sad news is:
Their argument could fall on fertile ground.
The Usamerican legal system protects a running business. When such a rich and famous corporation argues (and it would be highly paid lawyers arguing) that their business could be in jeopardy, they are going to listen, no matter how ridiculous the reasoning.
In other countries, they just make a judge laughing out loud.
The ads were served, right?
No, and that’s exactly the point that makes it a fraud (not stealing)
Boring article, but the picture looks cool.
I get that, but the general understanding of fair use is relatively homogeneous.
No, not at all. Only the anglo american culture has that term. Greek/Roman influenced cultures think quite differently about copyright topics in general. African and Asian, I don’t know.
