The progress is what matters, no matter how small steps! 👍

So far it’s splendid.

I woke up with my head nearing an explosion, but the sheer force of my will was enough to stop the countdown, what is a testimony to my unbreakable character. Yay me!

On my way to work I made a new friend - a very energetic gentleman, who certainly didn’t want to ran me over with his car. We exchanged pleasentries, and he tried to make me laugh by showing his funny grimaces while passing by. It was fun!

At work I was greeted with what we call in IT “a fire”. One of our oldest machines broke, and since there’s a tiny, ancient computer hidden inside, it became my task to fix it. Now, those were very refreshing hours, when our whole corpo freezed because one tiny, ancient computer refused to work.

I can’t wait to see what the upcoming hours will bring! 🤘

Thanks!

Gaming… Eh, the only games that I can afford to play now are those that my little daughter wants and is allowed to watch…

You know, something relatively harmless, colorful. Definitely no room for SKYRIM. 💀

It began quite bad, since I had to wake up and it turned out I’m still alive and in a condition that doesn’t prevent me from going to work.

It’s getting better, though. My initial zombie state of existence has evolved into “brain tries to escape via my ears”. Which is terrific, since it will allow me to get through another a few hours of work.

The weather is also getting better, I’m not sure when was the last time I’ve seen such massive dark clouds suggesting heavy rains.

4/5 stars, would live through again. 👌

Buy yourself a cookie!

I agree, but the question wasn’t about the percentage of cases, but about the possible reason to choice Ubuntu over Debian…

Yeah.

Those people seem to migrate from Reddit, but still carry it in their hearts and minds. 😑

No. The responses are the way they are, because people who gave them are already thinking they joined some elitistic “muh sikret klub!” group.

Simple “eh, it won’t fix the problem, and here’s why and how YOU can help” would be preferable, but no, special elite force of lemmy underground is too privileged to bother.

Thank heavens not everyone is like that. Saves the number of times I have to hit “block the idiot” button.

Ubuntu is what grew out of Debian.

But it’s radically different ENVIRONMENT these days.

Hard to tell.

Whole Linux movement has plenty of classes to take, if it wants to become more relevant. And social skills is one of the most important among these…

Support & community come to mind.

To a typical user/newcomer to servers it’s easier to find some solution for Ubuntu, than for Debian. And boy, can Debian users be full of themselves… 😑

Yeah. It’s good that there are users who actually take time to explain some stuff, rather than just hissssssss like rabid vipers merely because somebody - oh no, what a preposterous idea! - asked a harmless question.

I find this comment section a prime example of dickish hivemind seething over nothing.

There’s a dude, obviously quite fresh in the ways of Mastodon. He probably doesn’t realize all the nuts & bolts supporting the system and how it all works. He is asking a question that is logical, but it needs clarification, like “it doesn’t work like this, my man”.

Instead he gets “Hsssssssssssssss, selfhost it, hsssssssssssssssssssss, interloper, hsssssssssssssssssss, you want to destroy this place, hssssssssssssssss…”

Get a life, eejits.

If there’s a rest button somewhere there, use it.

Also, check whether it gets proper amount of power - that the electrical plug fits in, doesn’t mean the charger is enough to power it up.

If it fails, then I guess it’s time to replace the hardware.

I see nothing on the video, so can’t comment on that, but could you test the switch by connecting a router to the 1st port and a notebook to every other port one by one, to check whether the devices talk to each other?

I assume that the router acts as DHCP server, and the notebook is set to DHCP address lease, so no additional configuration is needed…

I can’t provide precise answer, since some services rely on HDD performance, while others enjoy big amount of RAM.

Personally, RAM and reliability are two things I’m after when entertaining the idea of a home server.

For example: I’m about to build a very simple file server + jellyfin + printserver + RDP rig and it’s going to be based on DELL 5040 + 8Gb RAM + 4Tb SATA, running… Windows 10 Pro. 🤠

This is brilliant.

Thanks Wojtek!

It often takes a different pair of eyes to see the hidden potential. 😎
