That was basically the same claim LP made. Even if true, if you have a bad master password, you can be compromised. While yes, that’s on you, your data is a high priority target in a centralized password store… if you host it yourself, someone would first have to know you had that data to even target you for that. Much less exposure hosting it yourself. The convenience factor and potentially less security than a company hosting passwords have, so it’s kind of a six of one, half dozen of the other.

Raspberry Pi will handle it.

It’s all about the storage space. Processing requirements are minimal.

I switched from Lastpass to 1Pass and it was pretty miserable. I then swtiched to Bitwarden. It’s not perfect, but it’s better than LP and 1Pass.

The reason you’d want to self-host is so that nobody has access to your data but you. “The cloud” is just someone elses computer"

Nobody can answer this because it depends entirely on how you set it up. It can be set up either way. Whatever you point your internal endpoint at is what it is.

I don’t remember now. It’s been about a year since I did it. I got tired of tracks mysteriously disappearing out of my library or certain versions of a song not being available (licensing issues I assume) … so now the RIAA gets none of my money instead of some of my money, because they want to be greedy.

I would imagine any of the paid services would work for the most part but I can’t say for sure, I’m sorry. The one i used just downloaded everything at once (about 1500 tracks worth I think)

I was in the same boat as you. I searched for months but there is nothing out there that works consistently.

I ended up paying for a service that let me download my entire Spotify library and then cancelled the subscription. I then cancelled Spotify and now get so my music through Lidarr and play it through Plexamp. I’m really happy with this setup for the most part, however…

Be aware that Lidarr only downloads full albums, not individual songs, so that’s a drawback.

Also, it’s best to have private trackers (usenet AND torrent) to get the best experience out of Lidarr. I had to spend about a month getting invites to several exclusive Torrent and Usenet sites but once I did Lidarr finds most things. I have to get some obscure things by hand still, though, as they aren’t in Lidarr.

This is the way

Pages represent web pages, whereas notes represent “a short written work typically less than a single paragraph in length”. In my opinion, using Page was a mistake on Lemmy’s end. Just like Lemmy won’t support Place objects, I’m not sure if any other platform will ever support Page objects, because Pages are much bigger in scope than anything most Fediverse applications ever deal with.

Using note was the mistake. Limiting communication to short quips, like Twitter does, is a fucking travesty. The fact that people routinely and often make multiple tweets to extend what they want to say proves this point. Twitter/X was the worst thing to happen to communication in the internet age by further reducing the attention span and ability of people to concentrate on longer bodies of writing, thereby making people even dumber.

Twitter/Mastodon should not even be a thing, honestly. They are dumb methods of communication for dumb people. You can always post something shorter in a long form system, but you can’t post something longer in a short form system, without making multiple posts. It’s fucking stupid and always has been. The primary reason for the short form, originally 140 char, was because you could text it in one message. This made a bit of sense… just a tiny bit, as it opened up communication where there previously wasn’t any. But as we moved away from that paradigm of 140 char text messages, the idea of a Twitter became more and more stupid, where today, we have Twitter/Mastodon as the bastion of the idiot regime who can’t think past 280 characters.

The cloudflare tunnel is the reverse proxy in this case. No particular need to run another. Are you using the docker cloudflared to set up the tunnel?

In my case, I use NGINX that connects to the cloudflare side and parse everything out from there, and I haven’t used the cloudflared docker, but I imagine that makes things easier. I set everything up before Cloudflare tunnels were a thing, so I didn’t really want to rejigger everything. If were doing it from scratch, I’d probably go with Cloudflare.

Inb4 the Cloudflare is Bad and is a MITM attack people. Yes, it is, but it’s about opportunity cost. I’m not doing anything I care that Cloudflare sees, so I’m fine using it for simplicity sake, and I imagine they do a better job of security than I do, and I can manage stuff on a well configured dashboard instead of a command line. I’m more interested in blocking people who AREN’T cloudflare from screwing with my shit than I am in keeping Cloudflare out of my business. I use a VPN for things I don’t want to run through Cloudflare (like Torrents).

I have up on Pihole a long time ago because of constant issues. Went with self hosted AdGuard and haven’t had a single issue since.

I don’t quite understand why you are paying someone else to host your data? At that point, just use one of the major cloud services…

That’s why I finally gave up after nearly 3 decades of running my own email server. It’s just stamping out fire after fire and my time became way more valuable as I got older.

Yes, Hexbear is highly customized. Beehaw is o believe. Not sure what else

The fact that you said “my router doesn’t appear on file explorer” tells us everything we need to know about your skill level. You don’t know the first thing about “protecting this open port” and you aren’t qualified to assess the security risks of what you are trying to do.

They can assemble impressive stuff at a rapid speed but are incapable of completely novel “ideas” - everything that they output is built from a statistical model of existing data.

You just described basically 99.999% of humans as well. If you are arguing for general human intelligence, I’m on board. If you are trying to say humans are somehow different than AI, you have NFC what you are doing.

My go to is Roku.

Cheap, always works, compatible with everything

Because you are at a disadvantage against those that do? I guess it depends on how definition of “required” and I feel like the context dictates the definition of “required” to be “required to be competitive.”

Job listings often list unrealistic or impossible qualifications (such as 10 years experience in a programming language that’s only existed for 6 years, most famously), overblown or unrealistically wide scope (must be expert in Linux, Windows, Cobol, C++, Atari, and to do the Kessel Run in under 12 parsecs), etc…

So to actually get a job you may be perfectly qualified for, it’s requires lying. The trick is knowing what’s bullshit on the job listing and what’s important, and if you are qualified for a particular position, you should know what parts are bullshit. Lying in that instance seems fine to me.

First off all, yes they can for all practical purposes. Or, alternately, neither can humans. So the point is academic. There is little difference between the end result from an AI and a human taken at random.

Secondly, LLMs aren’t really what people are talking about when they talk about AI art.

People like that surely do see it, they just deny it publicly because they feel threatened by the technology.

No person with even a basic education can legitimately come to another conclusion and be honest. The only way I can see this happening legitimately is to not understand even the basics of how AI art works. Like, not even the first thing about it.

Computers can create the equivalent of cave drawings without models as well.
