Another option is VMware Workstation/Fusion now that it is free again, or Virtual Box by Oracle.

Oh, it is again? Thanks for letting me know! Edit: nvm an account is needed, bleh

That is what I did for a while. A Debian VM with 2 CPUs MD 8Gb of ram to start playing around with Docker before getting a Pi.

Will try this out, then, thank you for the advice! Since I got my PC on ethernet, but still got a network card with WiFi that I don't really use for anything, I could set it up so the Wifi card acts as part of the VM as a different computer in the network, instead of having to configure the same connection both for my PC and the VM, right?

Sooo... do I just do with known email providers (proton, tuta, the webmail my domain provider allows me to have)?

Seems like email is the biggest issue to self host lol

Privilege. That's the entire thing. Meritocracy is a lie.

 

Do you have any advice or suggestions about it?

  • Hardware (what should be enough for a local PC, or VPS...)
  • Software (OS [Debian, Yunohost, other...], "containerization" (Docker, virtual machines?), dashboard, management, backups, VPN tunneling...)
  • "Utilities" to host (Lemmy, Peertube, Matrix, Mastodon, Actual Budget, Jellyfin, Forgejo, Invidious/Piped, local Pi-Hole, email, dedicated videogame servers like for Minecraft, SearXNG, personal file storage like Drive, AI [in the future, when I can afford a rig that can run a local model decently]...)

I'm aware it's a lot of stuff to take on, so, do you have any advice on where to start? (how to find a cheap PC to experiment with, if not get a VPS, what to test on it, what "utilities" to try self-hosting first...)

I think the issue comes with "division and multiplication", and "addition and subtraction" Here, I see people saying "Brackets/Parenthesis > Division > Multiplication > Subtraction > Addition" when I was taught "Brackets/Parenthesis > Division or multiplication, left to right > Subtraction or addition, left to right"

I was taught to do

  • Brackets
  • Division and multiplication left to right
  • Addition and subtraction left to right

There should be a fucking ISO for this shit tbh

It's funny that CNC can either be one of these industrials machines I don't know much about, or Consented NonConsent

I only use Brave because some websites got my digital fingerprint with firefox lol
