Oh, haven’t realized that the links were in your post…

Linux Mint is great for beginners. Have you ever installed windows? Installing Linux Mint is as easy as that. The day to day use is not much different compared to windows. Don’t be afraid to try it out, you can always go back to windows if it does not work out for you

Hugo is quite nice and has lots of themes

You can basically connect any local port to any remote port normal or reversed. Reversed is -R, normal with -L. In this setting, correct me if im worng, you want to connect the open port on the airplane to one already prepared on a vps which allows you to do what you want e.g. proxy websites.

I can recommend linkding..

You can’t have a chatbot that gives good answers without having a chatbot that gives liberal answers.

My Futro S740 with an J4105 CPU consumes up to 14 Watts according to this article. It is faster than a rpi 4b plus i bought it refurbished for 40€. I think a system with an I5 6500t will need even more power under load.

Yeah, thin clients are the way to go, but tgey will draw more than 5-7 Watt under load.

And which piece of consumer hardware offers more computing power (relevant for minecraft server) for the same amount of electrical power than a rpi4?

You can’t have more calculation power for the same electrical power consumption. A thin clirnt with an i3 or i5 maybe.

So I’m an Arch user since 2013 and I don’t think I’m toxic. I am not really offended by this post but a bit worried. Why this hate against Arch (users)? I use Arch, btw is a meme that may has some truth, but like every good meme it is exaggerated. Arch users may have some pride in tunning Arch but most of the time they’re (in my expierence) helpful and inclusive. The OS itself fits right to my expectations: community driven, pragmatic, highly customizable. And I think the community is doing a lot for the overall Linux community with the Arch Wiki and for the Arch-based family with the AUR.

Edit: I didn’t seek help in the Arch fotum myself but read some threads there. Haven’t encountered any bm there.

Overthrowing countries sounds good. Sadly, chatGPT is stupid as fuck.

Plain arch is great for gaming, no need for a gaming specific distro

As a german communist lemmy app, i disagree

Privacy brings security under totalitarian regimes or in countries that shift in that direction. They might say if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, but there are unjust conditions under which you have to hide things, like that you belong to minority that is targeted by the authorities. Like the nazis did in the third reich, where privacy was reduced during their takeover. Or that you belong to a party that is suddenly framed as evil and enemies of the nation. Or if you have connections to “traitors” or other “scum”.

Since your other question is already answered:

think leaving it as it is (unencrypted, no domain name, only accessible through IP) will be problematic.

Yes, that’s no biggy since it is on your local network only. But be aware that everyone that has access to your network could potentionally capture all the files you’re transfering and your nextcloud credentials as well. Other than that, your communication with nc will be encrypted on the wifi layer.

So you want to redirect podcasts over your server and save your progress there? Maybe icecast (maybe combined with mpd) will do the trick?"

Nah, that’s just wrong. You can compare yourself in other ways than how much fake money you earn. Fun thing is: truly communistic society would mean easier work for most people.

And communism does work in small scale enviroments. Families, cooperatives, tribes. Sometimes neighborhoods.

This whole “Sounds great but won’t work” rhethoric is just what the ones that would loose their power in communsim want you to think. If you dig into it you will see, that there were and are a lot of efforts to discredit the idea.
