Good to hear you figured it out with router settings. I’m also new to this but got all that figured out this week. As other commenters say I went with a reverse proxy and configured it. I choose caddy over nginx for easy of install and config. I documented just about every step of the process. I’m a little scared to share my website on public fourms just yet but PM me ill send you a link if you want to see my infrastructure page where I share the steps and config files.

At the end of the day you need to decide what kind of person you are. Are you pragmatic or idealistic? Are you able to separate art from artist and creation from creator? Should you support a good open source service created for the betterment of everyone if you dont like the politics of its developers?

I’m a pragmatist by nature. I believe that a useful tool remains a useful tool even when its crafted by tankie assholes. If I found out the maker of a computer command like sudo was a leninist or whatever I wouldnt go out of my way to install an alternative just because I dont agree with the batshit politics of the creator. Just like I wouldn’t stop enjoying a song after finding out the ones who made it were greedy egotistical dickheads in personal life.

Young and politically charged idealist love that online social justice warrior signalling and political identity posturing. Everythings gotta be us vs them culture war, with us needing to always be on the morally/politically high ground else your a filthy inhuman nazi them who must be refunded/canceled. You get older and realize most people no matter the lean have some level of dogshit half baked politics or some other degree of mental emotional whackiness from past trauma or poor life circumstances causing them to be imperfect animals with dumb fucking biases. That’s humanity and the heart of darkness for ya. You can choose to associate the imperfections of the creator with the creation, or you can try to decouple them and see them as separate entities linked by causality.

The free API is the gateway drug to selling the product to customers (devs). The average consoomers attention and data is the product to be sold to customers (advertisers and big brother)

In the comics Thanos was straight up the right man hand/side hoe of the concept of death made manifest the whole point of offing half of all life was just to make mistress death happy (I think she actually ordered it). A lot of the original plot points of the infinity war and its buildup was lost in translation. Movie thanos motivations werent even half baked, he could have doubled resources and made a paradise for life with his motivations

Thanks for the input! I do eventually plan on making some scripts and a custom web interface to interact with/expose some local services on my network once I have the basics of HTML covered as part of a portfolio thing so would like to cover my ass early and not have problems later

The thing is that even if there isn’t much energy in plastic to be extracted, theres still enough energy in it to make a viable food source. Now, consider the humble koala and its primary food source, fucking eucalyptus leaves. Eucalytis is such a dogshit food source that koalas had to spend evolutionary time and energy just to spec into it. To the point they cant eat anything else pretty much. Combine that with the fact that eucalyptis leaves are so devoid of nutrients that the koala has to spend all day every day just snacking on them to not die of malnutrition.

Why? Why would a species even bother with this flim-flam if eucalypti sucks that bad as a food source? The answer is: Food scarcity. Because eucalytis grows everywhere where koalas live and because nobody else is bothering to tap into the food source, this sets up a ecological niche by pretty much gaurenteeing any animal that sucessfully finds a way to make it work will have unlimited amounts of food/energy just from the fact theres so damn much of it and nothing else wants to/can touch it. Sure koalas might have paid the price by sacrificing some brain wrinkles but who needs higher intelligence when you have leaves to snack on and sex to make babies.

A similar thing happened with trees and mushrooms. In the deep evolutionary history of our planet trees were once the apex forms of life with forest covering pretty much the whole planet. This is because nothing knew how to eat the wood stems for a good couple million years. Most of the coal and oil that we dig up today is actually the preserved remains of these unbroken down trees from the carboniferous period that just layed there petrified never rotting until the earths techtonic movement buried the tree corpses deep enough in the mantle for the carbon to compress into hard rock or squeezed+heated into liquid. The great change in the era happened when our humble mycelium bois finally figured out how to eat wood, causing them to essentially become the new apex life for a time by taking advantage of an unlimited and untapped food source (trees).

I suppose my point is to not underestimate the willingness of life to find new food sources. microorganisms don’t need much excuse just a slight amount of selective pressure and a couple million/billion/trillion generations of evolutionary trial and error. Which for bacteria takes maybe a couple of years I forget how quick modern microorganism colonies make new generations but its FAST. Add some science nerds who love to play God/intelligent evolution with CRISPR tek and gene tagging, yeah for sure well get plastic eating microbes figured out. Then begins the pandoras box of plastic rotting when we dont want it to.

What is this post even talking about why does your silverware have a pillow

Just wondering, why do you think that coke users stay away from psychadelics and vice versa?

“The Grey” is the first thing to pop into my head.

The stupid meme worthy part is the way wolves are presented as a threat in the movie is so over the top like old childrens folklore level omnipresent coked out superwolves with a 100 mile killing radius stripping the territory all threatening life larger than a squrrel and enough intelligence for tactical strategizing to pick an entire group of men 1 by 1.

The way everything else is executed is what turns it around. The cinematography and the emotional human story of the main character guys motivations and interactions with the res5 of the group is fun. It makes it a good watch to spend an hour or two of your life on. The cast has some bangers and the acting is great.

Nothing wrong with a little bit of projection every now and then. It seems some people take it too far as a coping mechanism sometimes taking it to unhinged/unsafe degrees.

I consider it an ethical and moral responsibility to hide the darker aspects of my life from other people in general unless they are closely loved family or get paid to deal with such things as a career. If were just weekend night game buddies theres no reason you should be able to guess anything about my shitty life or internal suffering through poorly veiled character back story allusions. Its not your responsibility, its more personal that most are casually comfortable with, and its wrong for me to try to burden you with knowledge like that.

Revealing your deep traumas / “venting” to other regular people who only know you as a friend or passing aquanitence simply adds onto their psychological burden and likely makes further interaction weird or even secretly unwanted by complicating the relationship. Likely without improving your emotional situation any long term.

The installed appification of everything riddled with trackers when a web browser + site will do. Dead simple minimalistic UI that a toddler can figure out how to use. Every product is designed to account for the lowest common denominators of human intelligence which encourages ‘cant, wont, dont know how’ brain rot instead of making the tech illiterate feel pressured to actually apply themselves to learn. Now we have entire generations of idiots who feel entitled to the pleasant convince of advanced technology but unwilling to understand whats actually going on under the hood or accept responsibility to learn how to use it properly/ethically.

A society built entirely on dead simple convinence and instant gratification is one that fosters the destruction of individual critical thinking skills and mental robustness to troubleshoot/adapt when encountering a problem.

So many people are proud of it, thats the worst part for me. Legitately bragging about making it through life with the bare minimum of braincell rubbing. As if just being an unthinking half-sentient ape with a learned helplessness complex is an ideal state of being worthy of pride.

From what Ive seen in arguments about this, Plex generally is more accessible with QoL and easier to understand interface for non-techie people to share with family/friends. Something thats hard for nerdy people to understand is that average people are perfectly fine paying for digital goods and services. An older well off normie has far more money than sense and will happily pay premiums just to not have to rub two braincells together with setup or for a nicer quality of experience. If you figure out how to make a very useful plug-an-play service that works without the end user of average intelligence/domain knowledge stressing about how to set up, maintain, and navigate confusing layouts, you’ve created digital gold.

This isn’t the fault of open source services you can only expect so much polish from non-profit voulenteer. Its just the nature of consumer laziness/expectation for professional product standards and the path/product of least resistance.

Thank you! Putting the parts I have now into the pc part picker shows an approximate draw of 334W. Adding 65W on top of that to account for p100 max draw is 400w expected draw. The 1070ti I have has an expected draw of 150W adding that on would draw 550W which seems in range of 700W psu.

Theoretically my current 450w PSU could handle p100 maybe but 50w overhead is slim.

Budget is everything to me right now the 1050W PSU are like 150$ while that 700W psu is 50$. When things aren’t so tight and if I get deep enough down the rabbit hole to chain multiple server class GPUs ill probably be in a better spot to afford an expensive psu along with a big batch of cards.

Thank you for the great response! Yeah not quite a decade but were getting there. For some reason I think lots of people are still stuck in 2010s when they hear 10 year old computer parts they think subconsciously think of duo Pentiums from the early 2000s not intel i7s and AMD ryzens lol.

I decided to get try a nvidia p100 instead. it was more in my price range + it allows cuda with the nvidia card I have in another desktop I could chain up. Thanks for looking up the ARC anyways! Though do you know why it says the p100 says a bus length of 4096 while most other cards are like 128? P100 specs

Amd 580 specs

The CPU in that motherboard is the amd ryzen 5 2600 6 core 12 thread 3.4ghz. The GPU is AMD RX 580 6GB. I would be buying more for computational work on a headless server than games, I’ve never had any issue with modern games because im old and okay living with 1080p + medium settings it all looks fine compared to the PS1 stuff I grew up with.

Im only really concerned with bumping up VRAM GB and hopefully TFLOP speeds. I would really really like at least 16gb of vram but it doesn’t come cheap in todays market, the intel arc stuff was a good deal compared to what nvidia and amd want for similar numbers. Ill be limited by pcie version 3 no matter what. Theres some older nvidia cards that also fit the bill that I saw thanks to some other user recommendations but maybe if im spending the money just get the newest GPU series and upgrade all the other parts later?

Here’s some more info. This is the motherboard I have it says it’s a ‘generation 3’ but duesnt say what gddr vram it supports. I would like to put in a Intel arc card with gddr6 gram
