Sounds like a solid plan! I would be surprised if the public opinion here would be any different. There are no billionaires on Lemmy.

This is also how I have it set up, with "firefox multi-account containers" and "simple tab groups" working together, you can have multiple containerized accounts within one firefox instance. Works great!

Also, the difference between the tone of the speechea between Harris and Trump are like day and night. Where Trump continues to throw dirt and spew so much negativity, Harris sounds like someone who steps beyond the dirt throwing and really comes with a vision and ideas how to govern the country.

Well, my 2cts from someone on the other end of the Atlantic 😀

At this point I am seriously wondering why people would like to use Chrome over Firefox for instance.

I have been using Linux on the desktop over the last 3 decades on and off, and my homelab is fully on Linux. But for the desktop I rely on some audio workstation software that is just too expensive and good to not use.... Maybe, when Windows 10 support is ended I might have to do the switch....

This is from the Blues Brothers movie from 1980.

 

Finally no more nagging to upgrade to Windows 11..... for now...

However, I literally got the full screen nagging just a week ago.

AMD published a list with the mitigation on Sinkclose on all their processor ranges, and the ComboPI version that will have a patch:

Security bulletin 7014

Use of hardware enablement package kernel might help here? It is called linux-generic-hwe or something like that. It will install a much newer kernel with more support for newer hardware.

You can easily selfhost Seafile and make a ‘dropbox’ like system with as many users you like, and as large a storage you can handle / afford. Although there is an enterprise version, the community edition provides with many features to make it really a great service. It is mighty fast, and has native clients for many different platforms, in addition to using the Seafile website to acces, upload and download files.

I never hosted Nextcloud, but from what I read, it is a beast with way too many features to fit my use case. Seafile is doing one thing very well.

you’d think they start to wonder why they put Leclerc as the first driver, and letting the better race driver go… On the other hand, they were on different strategies, so it is not all to blame on the driver.

We have to speed up technology so that it outpaces us humans getting older!

That's the right question to ask! It may have to do with the Halo effect as well. Even though the influencer not necessarily is a celebrity, they have build a certain level of trust with their followers I guess... In any case, I dont get it either, but I may fall out of the audience for any influencer I guess...

 

So I have been running a fair amount of selfhosted services over the last decade or so. I have always been running this on a Ubuntu LTS distribution running on a intel NUC machine. Most, if not all of my services run in a docker container, and using a docker compose file that brings everything up. The server is headless. I connect over ssh into a tmux config so I am always ready to go.

Ubuntu has been my stable server choice over the years. I've made the upgrade from 16, 18, 20 and 22 LTS release and everything has kept working. I even upgraded the hardware (old NUC to a new NUC) and just imaged the disk from the old one onto the new machine, and the server kept chugging along quite nicely, after I configured the hardware (specifically the Intel QuickSync for hardware transcoding in the Plex container).

Since Ubuntu has been transitioning from a really open community driven effort into a commercial enterprise, I feel it may be time to look at other distributions. On the other hand, it will require a fair amount of work to make the switch. But if it needs to be done, than so be it. I guess I am looking for opinions on what Linux distribution would fit my particular use case, and am wondering what most of us here are running.

TLDR; What stable, long term supported Linux distributions do you recommend for a headless server running a stack of docker containers?
