I believe that is a crouching zebra. Do not approach it, it is preparing to attack.

boydster@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•Ted Cruz ensured Trump spending bill slashed weather forecasting funding | Senator on vacation abroad while Texas was hit by deadly floods, a disaster worsened by forecasting cuts, critics sayEnglish24·8 days ago“People were sleeping in the middle of the night when the flood came,” said Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary. “That was an act of God; it’s not the administration’s fault the floods hit when it did.”
Damn, why would God do this, Karoline?
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Hardware Suggestions For A Beginner?English5·8 days agoProxmox on a Lenovo micro form factor is probably a good cost effective option. Get a business class ThinkCentre, like an M720 or something similar that’s 3-5 years old that a corpo has just upgraded away from, i5 or Ryzen 5 with however much storage and RAM you want. Spin up a container specifically and only for PiHole+Unbound (and consider adding a pi or some other dedicated hardware for DNS later on for redundancy in case your main goes down), and then the rest is however you want to build your environment.
For me, I’ve got a Pi dedicated to 3 key tasks: PiHole, Unbound, and PiVPN (edit: and Nginx Proxy Manager. It’s dedicated to 4 key tasks…). It’s basically my filtering interface between the home network the rest of the internet immediately after my router handles the frontline defenses, and then I’ve got a Proxmox cluster to run most of the rest of my internal services.
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your favorites? How do you like them?English5·8 days agoI much prefer lacto-fermented foods over vinegar-pickled.
Peppers, both sweet and hot? Love 'em, especially fire roasted. Sun dried tomatoes? Hell yeah, great to cook with.
Soak something in vinegar though? Yeah, nah, I’m all set, thank you very much.
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•Trump administration quietly tries to find a solution for migrant workers amid industry concernsEnglish3·12 days agoThat last part is where we disagree. You are underestimating the wealth extraction that has taken place during the post-WWII boom. I’m not going to argue further because I’m going to bed, but I’ll suffice to agree to disagree.
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•Trump administration quietly tries to find a solution for migrant workers amid industry concernsEnglish4·12 days agoI feel like your entire post is ignoring the hoarding of wealth at the top while focusing on the financial impacts that would happen to the people at the bottom due to the aforementioned greed at the top. Those people “who have no idea how much their food would cost if they were paying the workers a fair wage” have also never been paid a fair wage.
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•Trump administration quietly tries to find a solution for migrant workers amid industry concernsEnglish9·12 days agoI think we all want to be paid a fair wage for our labor AND and fair price for food, with reasonable expectations of safety on both sides. 50+ years of wage stagnation and the expectation from major corpos that they can keep extracting more profits are two factors working against us, though. The problem isn’t about what consumers are willing to pay for food.
We, the People, aren’t going to be able to fix this if we don’t start electing leaders that can resist big-dollar donors and lobbyists, because we need regulations around major markets that will be met with insane amounts of resistance by money-backed interest groups. We need labor reforms, we need housing reforms, we need finance sector reforms, and none of those are favorable for a Fortune 500 company’s “Line go up” policy when implemented. But far too much money has flowed out of the hands of the poor and middle class while the ultra-wealthy are buying islands and yachts (and bugout bunkers in case of an uprising or whatever), and fixing that issue in both an acute and a systemic way is necessary and needs to happen before we get better.

I’m a descendant of immigrants. And I bet you are, too, fellow American citizen reading this comment. I wonder where they draw the purity line tomorrow?
boydster@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•AOC Exposes Catch in “No Tax on Tips” Rule in Trump’s BudgetEnglish7·13 days agoI still hope for midterm that can steer us away from the cliff. As an American, I need that hope. We are, historically, a hopeful people (albeit one with many atrocities along the way).
An unimaginable amount of damage is being done right now by the current administration. There are people who have died and who will die because of the cuts made in the last 6 months, and the people whose lives have and will be snuffed out early are unrecoverable entirely. Imagine Socrates, DaVinci, Newton, Einstein, Hawkins… not allowed the chance to live and gift all of humanity with their insights. We have no idea what we lost nor what we will lose, and no way of knowing.
The hope I hold onto is that we can stop the bleeding and begin to heal. Midterms are our best opportunity at that before things have a chance to really accelerate into even more fascistic behavior.
MAGA country is going to feel the pain of their tiny penis deal when the rulers pass it, and they are already seeing pain from ICE raids on farms and factories. When the slackjaws catch on to the fact that they’re being fleeced, the charade should end pretty quick and the number of people actively opposing the administration will increase accordingly.
I hope.

The best way to tell precisely how spicy your rock is, is to taste it. That’s just basic science, if you ask me.
Ultimately up to you, but I’d go with no GUI and just use ssh (and sftp if you need to do file transfers).
When I was using Docker, it was headless because the GUI just ate up space and resources I didn’t need. All your interaction will be in the shell anyway, launching your compose.yml files.
But, if dealing with a headless machine sounds like more trouble than you want to try, install the DE if your choice and breathe easy because it’ll still work perfectly fine.
Tax dollars up in smoke
