Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Society needs to keep score on positive impacts
22·4 months agoKeeping score for good things generally will lead to those points being abused so people can look good but not actually be good. Suddenly creating ranking for more good. Good vs evil where the lower tier can’t keep up so the actively don’t attempt to be good or even strive the other way.
Would not recommend under clocking. Buy a kill-a-watt measure your idle that’s your general power usage. A cpu that has a low TDP and newest generation is going to be the most efficient. After that it’s each item you add adds more usage at idle which is going to be most of your time. Transcoding efficiency doesn’t matter much since you are likely not transcoding when you aren’t watching videos. Have an appropriately sized power supply that platinum or gold certified, usually the extra cost will be justified by power bill usage over a year or 2.
For example my older gen server, a dell r720xd, sits about 120-130 watt but with 9 spinning disk drives each about 5w per hour it sits around 200w per hour. This does go higher when watching videos but is far from the average. 200w per is roughly $15-20 per month where I am located.
I hope this helps.

It’s been reasonably active here definitely not reddit in it’s prime, I haven’t found it worthwhile to self host lemmy but others may chime in that do. I’ve got a few other things I’m hosting on my Dell r720xd matrix, jellyfin, wireguard, next cloud, gonic and other minor things.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Suggestions for Improving Linux Server Security: Beyond User Permissions and Groups?English
6·1 year agoI would reconsider docker because if a specific application leaks some sort of shell access or system file access you’ll be protected out side of container host escalation.
Unrelated to security, I prefer docker because it leaves the server very clean if you remove different apps. Can also save time configuring more complex applications or applications that conflict with system libraries.
Add fail2ban on your list of applications it watches logs for invalid logins and puts them on firewall block rules after so many failed attempts.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•I'm at a loss on what server to buyEnglish
4·1 year agoI made the jump to a full server a few years ago and there’s some pretty high limits but you can get them spec’ed pretty low. Something like a dell r730 Single 8 core xenon 32gb ram and a couple tb of storage running 4-500$. They can be upgraded over time to be dual 16 core xenon 1tb ram and petabyte of storage.

- Profit?
Lemmy is way less privacy oriented than reddit and that’s by design.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's a good budget home server?English
5·2 years agoI guess some perspective on some other comments here. I have a dell r720xd dual xenon’s 16 total cores 128gb ram it uses roughly 200watts per hour with the 11000w power supplies. it can get fairly loud when using lots processing power. I bought a 12u rack to mount it nicely in my office. It is also my guest bedroom, while everyone we have had doesn’t mind the noise not all guests would appreciate the white noise even with many of the cpu intensive stuff turned off and it as quiet as it goes. Fans full tilt would be obnoxious and hard to concentrate.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Stuck on Let's Encrypt certificate issuance due to firewall issue even after opening necessary portsEnglish
10·2 years agoMany home ISPs block port 80 and 25. You should be able to Google that and confirm. If that’s the case you’ll have to use a different method.
Been using nixos for a couple months now. It’s nice and I really enjoy having all my configuration in one place and able to be version controlled. The down side being installing and configuring things take a bit more time to read how nix does it. I have it on a laptop that I’ve been playing with and removed it and put rocky for something else but I am 100% confident I can go right back to the way i had it.
So far the cons I’m seeing is installing vscode plugins are a little annoying and setting up to do python development on existing projects not very easy.


First thought is you likely can give it Ethernet with a usb c dongle.
