What country is that?

This is important. I dunno about scale, but backups. I started out hosting a chat room on a raspberry pi. It was a fun side project. But then, that became where my friends all hung out. That was the place, so it became important to me. And then the SD card got corrupted. I then moved on to a consumer laptop. It was way more stable, much faster. But if I messed up anything about the installation, I was hosed.

I very highly suggest using Proxmox, like you say, and setting up automatic backups. And occasionally transfer them to a hard drive. It doesn't matter what kind of virtual CPUs or services you install, gedaliyah@lemmy.world, as long as you have a plan for when something you host becomes important to you and you lose it.

Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.

That's never stopped us before.

C# is good. I use Visual Studio on Windows, so I'm not familiar with the tooling in VS Code in Linux, but I've heard good things. .NET is a nice environment to work in, the runtime works on all the OSs, and you can even package it into a self-contained binary with a little finagling.

Finally a critique of AI that I can get behind. I've never bought into the idea that the tech itself is bad. And I've also never bought into the idea that training these models was somehow theft. But they are trained on the human compendium, so we should all have rights and a stake in their use more broadly in society and industry.

The problems I've had with my RPis have all revolved around the fragility of their SD storage. I got burned one too many times trying to host something important in my house with these things, just for them to get corrupted and lose everything. Backing up these systems was its own nightmare, which failed as much as it succeeded.

FINALLY

That Einstein guy sounds pretty smart.

If they could force you to pay a royalty every time you so much as thought of a book you once read, they'd do it in a heartbeat.

And failing for as hard as they're trying. They may lose a few seats here and there, but not in the numbers they "should" because the Dems can't help but fumble the ball. You can decide for yourself whether that's purposeful or by accident. I can never make my mind up.

Not a bad idea, and I've been keeping an eye out. Unfortunately they have hobbies that require space, e.g. a fishing boat, a trailer camper, and a truck big enough to haul both. They'd be fine with a smaller living space, but it's hard to find a smaller house on enough land to park/store that stuff. Luckily I have many years before it will become necessary to have them close. :)
