Nice. Yeah I hear that. I saw someone else’s comment here that they have a torrent of all their games as their backup. As long as you had an offsite torrent copy of your files that seems like and excellent idea.

Yeah just buy a 1tb (or more) drive and backpack everything to it. Keep it in a safe place and it should be fine for 5 to 10 (maybe more) years.

Thanks. Yes I messed up. I have a surface pro. I do remember the surface book I thought it was bad ass but never could afford it. Anyways yes the surface pro has been very suprising. Unfortunately I have one with only 8gb of ram and it suffers because of it. Get the 16gb model if you can.

I got a surface book. Runs windows but touch works amazing on it. I’m using it to read books. Battery lasts a long time and the keyboard is nice for typing. Mine is an older model (7) and you can find them used for pretty cheap.

The repubs complain about the border, a border bill comes up. Republicans refuse to pass it.

Wow. Secret menu? Didn’t even think to look for that. What does it slow you to do?

[-] Mountain_Mike_420@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 days ago

Humm. How long has it been disconnected? I wouldn’t reconnect just in case it starts a timer back over or something.

Please don’t give kids smartphones period. A smart watch is far less addictive and just as valuable to parents and kids (parents can track location, kids can still make phone calls and txt.) other suggestions are a dumb phone (think t9 txting), or just let them go phoneless.

If you need you fix Adam savage is very active on YouTube and is just a wonder human being. It’s not MythBusters but Adam was a light during Covid and someone I put on regularly on YouTube.

Hi I’m new here. My friend has been trying to get me in for ages. The reason I am here is because my Reddit account of 10 years and one of 3 years got permabanned. And it was really for no reason. I tried to make a new account and that also got instantly permabanned. That’s when I found out that my 10year account also got banned. So yeah fuck what happened on Reddit.

I’m really liking lemmy and my iOS app (mlem) and enjoying the community. The only thing I miss from Reddit is the video integration.

Should I be learning docker compose instead of relying on dockStarter to manage my containers? I got portainer up, should I just use that to manage my stack?

I’m committed this summer to finally learning docker. I’m on day 3 and the last puzzle piece is being able to access qbittorrent locally while running the container through the vpn.

Yes I’ve done it. What sucks is you make a lot of trash this way. Also double and triple check that the drives you buy will have standard sata connectors on them.

Commenting to bring awareness to the ‘arrs. Radarr sonarr and lidarr will get you all the media you need organized perfectly. It runs on any device but take a few days to figure out. Once setup it’s a set it and forget it thing. Uses torrents and or usent so use a vpn. Mine runs on a 10 year old raspberry pi 2 and a few usb hdds. Been going strong with very little maintenance for 6 years at this point.
