From google images it looks like this PSU has an IEC C20 male connector on it meaning you would need an IEC C19 end on your cable. C19/20 is a higher amperage version of C13/14 which is what could be considered standard on a normal consumer PSU. Google C19 to whatever plug your 220v outlet needs and you should find the appropriate cable.

I’ve found the solution to this problem is to not have friends.

The lemmy user in the database needs superuser privilages. Add superuser to the lemmy account, drop the database, and then recreate it.

sudo -iu postgres psql -c "ALTER USER lemmy WITH SUPERUSER;"
sudo -iu postgres psql -c "DROP DATABASE lemmy;"
sudo -iu postgres psql -c "CREATE DATABASE lemmy WITH OWNER lemmy;"

Edit: they may have fixed this but I’m not sure what version it’s in. Let me know if that doesn’t work. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/3002

If you use a local postfix relay it should queue messages and retry to send on failures.

Pict-rs uses a database to match the uri hash to the file name on disk or object store. This allows for deduplication. It always needs to sit between storage and requests. I have my instance setup to use a separate CDN domain and caching servers to reduce load in my instance. One day soon I hope to get a write done on how to do it.

Scroll down to do a complete reload doesnt work on my iphone but other than that it’s great.

It’s tough because you don’t want them to be technically inept in this day and age. There is also peer pressure amongst friends and a certain social status that for better or worse matters to them.

It’s a balance between unrestricted access and a reasonable amount. We keep them busy enough that it’s never a question. They really only come out on long car rides and trips. We don’t use them in the home at all.

Very rarely at a restaurant, only when it’s large family affair at a place we won’t normally go. I used to judge people throwing screens in front of kids at restaurants but let me tell you it’s better than chasing them around. They get a treat, the screen, for behaving and I get to enjoy a nice meal.

It won’t work well. Other instances make assumptions about paths as it’s standardized. For example they don’t store the full pictrs path, just the ID. It’s assumed the path is /pictrs/image. You would have to set 301 redirects. Other instances may link directly to your root uri when making links back to you. The api requests are also likely going to your root uri.

The front end can do whatever you want. Just change the paths typescript files before you compile as those also use root urls.

I have my instance setup to use a CDN and separate URL for all static content including pictrs. I have a script that modifies the front end while compiling to accomplish this. I use 301 redirects to fix all the assumed paths and requests from other instances.

Proxmox and shell scripts. I have everything automated from base install to updates.

All the VMs are Debian which install with a custom seed file. Each VM has a config script that will completely setup all users, ip tables, software, mounts, etc. SSL certs are updated on one machine with acme.sh and then pushed out as necessary.

One of these days I’ll get into docker but half the fun is making it all work. I need some time to properly set it up and learn how to configure it securely.

I picked up a black friday deal from mxroute for $15/year. Unlimited domains and 300 email/hour. I have it setup as the relay for my internal postfix/dovecot setup. It also hosts one email account so if I mess up my own configuration I can still do email.

Looks like their current deal is a $5/year for 1 domain https://account.mxroute.com/order/micro You could still set that one domain up as a relay.

I use namesilo. I moved there before they sold in 2018 and I haven’t found a reason to leave despite the changes. It still does everything I need and pricing is good enough.

I’m on cloud flare now so that’s probably where I’ll go if I’m ever bothered to move

At home I have a Proxmox cluster consisting of two Dell R340 and one Intel NUC. There are 25 VM’s across all three machines. They do various development duties along with home assistant, plex, and Blue Iris. The rack lives in a closet under the stairs and I have fiber ran to my office. We did a massive renovation when we purchased so I wired the entire house since the walls were all opened. Average power draw is around 480 watts.

Here is a picture of the rack back when it was all R330. Those have since been sold and upgraded to R340. I added vents during the renovation. Inlet temps stay around the house ambient, and exhaust is about 20 degrees F hotter. I cover the front with additional sound baffles to better route fresh air and control noise. Its pretty much silent outside the closet.

This is the patch panel. I have perimeter cameras all the way around the house plus more than enough wifi access points. Each room also got 2x ethernet on each side, 4x total. My office has got 6x ethernet plus 4x fiber and a 2-inch conduit to pull whatever else I can think of later.

I use Grafana and custom-made scripts for monitoring and alerting. Most of the infrastructure is automated with scripts. One of these days Ill learn Ansible but I really enjoying just figuring it all out. This isn’t my job I just do it for fun. Here is the dashboard I run on one of my desk monitors.

I run my hobby websites, and my Lemmy instance, in the colo but its primary purpose is to be an offsite backup. Proxmox backup server performs best on SSD hence the large array. I also do a lot of travel for work so that’s my remote dev machine too. I run my own mail servers with some small VPSs acting as SMTP and IMAP bouncers to internal servers at home and in the colo working in parallel. HA proxy does the bouncing for high availability and dovecot and postfix do the heavy lifting with solr providing lighting fast search. I do use a third party for outbound mail for better deliverability.

• Primary storage array. Sitting at about 70% utilized so its time to upgrade.

And to add to this the universal links with a ! should automatically be fetched by your instance instead of going 404 if they haven’t been searched before.

Agreed. Beyond just no ads because I go out of my way to block them on my network and devices its nice to browse new and be able to have discussions instead seeing complete shit posts or popular ones with 1,000+ replies already.

No way. I don’t care if Lemmy doesn’t succeed I’m never going to tolerate that shit. I stopped using Twitter when they killed third party apps and forced even more ads into their piece of shit app.

I’ve blocked every ad I’ve ever seen on the app. I haven’t used it in a while and I doubt I’ll ever go back now.

The only thing left that I use it for is getting alerts about live police chases so I can tune in. Ill leave that going until those people move to other platforms.

I followed the instructions from here and it was included so I left it: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Bookworm/Upgrades

Someone much smarter than me explains it here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/87763

Anything been taken over by the admins and turned back on yet?

I run my own instance and I can reply, make new posts, and even moderate communities on any instance I follow, and that doesn’t block me instance from joining. The only thing I cannot do is create communities on other instances.

So when lemmy.ml went down do to server load I had no idea until i clicked a direct link to it. I could still see my copies of their communities.

It’s more like my account won’t ever be deleted if the sever I signed up on goes away.

It will be interesting to see what happens as large instances grow and how they deal with storage and bandwidth. Any media a user uploads anywhere is hosted on their main instance. Self hosting also puts me in control of my upload media.
