  • If you have around 100€ you can get a mini PC on eBay to start self-hosting all kinds of things. I have two at home with Proxmox installed and it’s very easy to use. Especially with the Community helper scripts to get containers installed and configured for a variety of self-hosted services.

    A Lenovo Thinkcentre or HP EliteDesk Mini PC works perfectly as a home server. I use it to host game servers, Home Assistant, personal wiki, Jellyfin, Audiobookshelf, SearXNG, PiHole and more.



  • Sure, you might think it’s weird and annoying to say something like that in an introduction. But please enlighten me, how is being Queer a kink? And how is a man wanting to wear women’s dresses a kink? If thinking of queer- and transpeople makes you horny/angry then that’s your problem. They have a right to exists.

    Why are you so triggered and scared of people being different? People have a right to express and be themselves.

    Kinky shit should stay out of the public, but that goes for everyone. Not just LGBTQ+ people.












  • When it comes to Arch the wiki is your friend. It will tell you if additional configuration is required to get your packages working and what other dependencies can be installed. If something isn’t working properly then the wiki probably knows why.

    Arch comes with no drivers and additional packages by default. You need to install them manually. But you don’t need to install every package for your system manually. If you need glibc it will most certainly get pulled down as a dependency.

    You don’t need to know every part of the system to use arch but you need to be interested enough to learn how your system works if something is not working or you want to configure your system in a certain way.

    For starters I would recommend going with something Arch-based like Garuda or EndeavorOS if you want to learn Arch. I started off with my Steam Deck and later Garuda on my desktop. Once I was comfortable enough around Arch I decided to install vanilla Arch (manually, the wiki way) in a VM. When installing my system I wrote down every command I used and from that it snowballed in to my own install script for arch. That taught me a lot.





  • My stepmoms aunt had a super slow laptop with Windows that I took and installed Linux Mint on and she is super happy with it. It’s like a brand new computer for her!

    She only uses her computer to pay bills and check Facebook and she haven’t called me once to complain. She only tells me that it’s working great.

    I plan to install Linux Mint for my mom too in the future. I don’t think my dad would be able to handle it tho. He barley know his way around the computer but he knows enough to do his work and I don’t want to mess up his workflow.
