If we want an open chat service, I'dd look into Matrix, which is federated like kbin/lemmy. Its also a work in progress, but it does support both text chat and voice/video chat. And it does have rudimentary "spaces" which lets you group channels and such, which makes it easy for people to discover the channels in our community.
If this ends up being just the CM having a nervous breakdown, it would be kind of hillarious
I'm a bit on the fence still. On the one hand it was interesting to watch. But I still wonder what it's actually about
Feel like this would have made a great theme for Photoshop battles
I have a big enough house to be able to put this machine somewhere out of the way but there are plenty of cheap server gear on classifieds. I paid ish 300 euros for a 32 core machine with 40gb ram. I can host all the things without it even breaking a sweat.
Probably uses a lot more electricity, but I haven't really noticed it on my power bill
I swapped to Linux for similar reasons many years ago. The initial idea was to hedge and get familiar with it so I had peace of mind. I ended up staying in the Linux sphere for most of my devices , except for my music production machine that still run windows.
I hope a fair few move over, but I'm afraid the number of 3rd party app users is lower than we anticipate
Thought I'd hate it. But all in all i came out of the cinema with a positive experience. The plot is kinda basic, but it captures a homebrew dnd campaign pretty well. It's a lot of fun
Yeah, it really sounds a bit low. I'm not sure what else goes into these containers. I assume there might also be a bunch of portable equipment and cabling that goes into moving the data in and out of the container? Power infrastructure and cooling and what probably takes up quite a bit of space as well.
Reminds me of AWS Snowmobile, which is literally a shipping container filled with harddrives.
This has been a great boon to me. Whenever Apple upgrades Mac OS, I check my regional equivalent to craigslist for cheap music gear that stops working. Has worked twice for me. I got a really nice 24 channel audio interface for 20 bucks.
I loved Mariners line about the enterprise crew talking slowly. The difference in speed between the SNW and LD dialogue was something I noticed and this one line made it click for me. Fantastic
