Define “server”:
If you mean any process that serves on the network well then of course you can.
If you mean multiple containerized stacks acting as a service then yes, you can do that too.
If you mean multiple operating systems, I’m not so sure but I can’t imagine that it’s impossible.
I don’t use it but I would recommend Kopia due to its content-defined chunking, deduplication, etc. I’m writing a fork of it that allows any Rclone adapter to work as the frontend or backend but it won’t be released for quite some time.
Otherwise I sync most my files to Backblaze by hand from time to time using Rclone and client-side encryption.
For me it’s also the same with “hubby”
Why would the IPv6 addresses issued to you by your ISP be any less traceable than the one IPv4 address they typically give you? It’s fairly obvious which group of devices are related.
All americans know him and many admire him.
This is bottom of the barrel trolling.
Could we have an IPv6 one? It’s 2026.
I second PocketID if all you’re looking for is Passkeys + forward-auth. The others are overkill.
Yes! I’ve found myself doing this both personally and professionally. At work we’re using Docker and Kubernetes but the old way of thinking is assuming everything is Debian or Ubuntu so a lot of Bash scripts just break on Alpine-based containers.
But even for those scripts we execute primarily on macOS, I’ve taken the liberty of making them POSIX compliant because you never know who’s using Bash, zsh, sh or what have you.
I tend to use macOS on the desktop (I know, booo) so I’ve landed on Alpine Linux for just about everything else.
I love that you can be on the bleeding edge but also not have tons of baggage everywhere. The downside is of course a lot of times I find myself doing things from scratch.
I went through two K-Supreme machines that both failed in under a year. Eventually I ditched Keurig and their planet-killing K-Cups and started making pour over iced coffees that taste far better than anything a Keurig can make.
What do Discord servers have to do with anything??
I’d just add both Gmail and another email account to a desktop email client, then simply drag the emails from one provider to the other.
This is why I gave up on a really amazing ARM device that I wanted to use as a router. I ended up having to buy an Intel-based mini PC simply because I didn’t have more time to invest in creating and burning random disk images to SD cards and USB flash drives.
When I moved from the Midwest to Los Angeles, CA c. 2013 it was a bit of a culture shock to learn that almost no one had a computer.
I still don’t know anyone who owns one that doesn’t have to work with one.
And it is totally about phones and tablets. I don’t even think the kids learn to type in schools anymore.
I really tried to use a “usb” install for a long time but could never get kernel upgrades (and some other packages) to work correctly.
These days I do a “sys” install but mount /var/log and some other directories to RAM.
I kind of very much dislike this line of thinking. Debian and Ubuntu are full of shit and cause an astronomical amount of bloat when containerized or running in production on a server.
I switched to Alpine quite a long time ago and run it on servers, in containers and on my own networking equipment. I don’t miss Debian’s slow as hell updates nor Ubuntu’s Microsoft-style bloat.
I have to deal with all this cruft a lot at work and I always ask myself “why?” It’s super frustrating, it slows everything down and after sprinkling in more “we don’t care about efficiency” attitudes you suddenly find yourself trying to deploy 15GB containers.
We should aim to do better.
Are you referring to mealie-recipes/mealie?
I figured as much but I thought I might still try to help anyone reading.
Why the fuck would you do this on Meta?
