Self refers to oneself as in, a person. I never associate selfhosting with a company which runs their own servers. Technically they do self host but is it a company asking questions on an online forum and referring to itself as oneself? Is a company a person? What is a company even? Philosophical questions we dont have time to discuss.

To me, self hosting means a person is self hosting things. Some have racks and use 1kW of power on idle, some have micro servers. In any case, just one paragraph explaining what you have at the top of a post is sufficient to get the point of what you know across.

Id say a more important distinction is persons who self host software only (VPS) and those who do hardware as well.

Needs private albums for porn and ill use it.

I can’t comment on the performance but yeah… 6500t is what, 8 years old at this point? N100 is a year old. Tech can improve a lot in that time.

Get a mini pc. If you can find a cheap intel NUC on ebay for example. Way more power in a compact form that doesn’t draw that much more power than a rpi… much less four of them.

Yeah a lot of people will say to just use your old PC thats lying around and it is a great way to start and learn but if you want something with a lower footprint (low power, quiet, cool) you’re better off buying something more suited to that task. Laptops or mini PCs are much more suited to that.

Id love to have a server rack one day but I just cant justify it drawing so much power when I can live with the drawbacks of a smaller server.

11th gen NUC. Much faster than a RPI4, more power if needed (for things like Zigbee USB adapters, external drives…) while still maintaining low power draw on idle. It will jump to 20-30W when transcoding but I dont mind higher power draws when im actually using the thing.

Sell. I don’t run a data center and I’m not a cloud provider. I have a meager home server with some stuff plugged in and serve some tv shows. I want this to be as low foot print as possible. If it goes over 10w idle, I’m shutting it down lol.

Im really impressed with the thing. Cpu idles at 30C as well. Very similar to rpi4 with 5 times the performance.

Look into a NUC on ebay. I was able to snag a new 11th Gen i3 for 200 eur. Power draw is about 7w with a headless Debian. Running a media server, nextcloud, pihole, an arr stack and I’m planning to add home assistant and a zigbee bridge which I now run on a pi.

If you aren’t planning to run to much on it a rpi4or5 will actually be enough and these things can draw 15 on absolute max load.

They do that here. Except too bright isn’t seen as a fault.

I thought 0F was the freezing point of brine.

We don’t have to. There’s an ad on for it.

So I just click commit and it works? Wow, this is easy!

Yup. This has been their use since the ‘type these two words’ capchas which were used to train for OCR.

Hot take: none. Let information flow free. Take it with the good and the bad. Don’t lock yourself in an echo chamber.

Then they weren’t commies but went with the leading regime and pushed their own agenda.

I think Miyazaki put it best when he said the problem with popular anime is that it takes its inspiration from other anime instead of bringing in fresh ideas and doing things differently. Anine is a genre but it shouldn’t be.

Android? No. It’s not made for it. You are using a hammer to paint a wall.

Phones? With a different Linux based distro? I can see it happening. For a small niche at least.

I think they ment a counter like 1…2…3… Not a counter you approach that seats an employee.
