About three years ago I moved my only windows device (for gaming only) to Linux and it was the best thing I ever did. All my development and work machines since 2009 had been on Linux, but my only hold out was my desktop. Proton made it such an easy choice for me. Other than a couple games I played that had anti-cheat that wouldn’t work, it’s been great. And those games I just stopped playing.

I didn’t think I would use the trackpads much, but now that I have them, I can’t move to a handheld that doesn’t have them. They are just too convenient.
Funny enough, at the time this was new, I was not a fan. But as time has gone on, I have had a very “you don’t know what you got till it’s gone” relationship with it.
Fedora strikes a good balance for me. I come from arch and opensuse. I like the stability of fedora, but I like that it also gets updates faster than Debian. Most software I have found has Fedora considerations.
However, I have been using Ubuntu LTS for my self hosted media server.
After playing with shaders in retroarch on amoled, I will never be able to go back to LCD. Otherwise it looks pretty cool.
I have been recently reminiscing with some friends about the internet back when instead of massive websites that held everything, there were small forums with specialized focus. You could get to know the people in the forums over time. It was so much better than the shit that exists today.
I would love to join forums made by these projects. I don’t care if I have to have a bunch of accounts. Individual forums and RSS feeds are awesome. Since moving to RSS I have drastically reduced my mindless scrolling.
I may be assuming here, but I did not see it mentioned.
With the setup you have it will not work. Just having a public IP does not tell your router what internal device and port to send the traffic to and your router is not going to allow this. You would need to forward that port internally into your network.
However, DO NOT DO THIS! You do not want to allow traffic from the public internet into your computer. You are asking for trouble.
I am going to solution this without ever having done it, so cut me some slack.
You should look at something like tailscale. Tailscale allows you to create a custom wire guard vpn that allows you to connect to a device running tailscale from the public internet. I think you can have 3 account for free. Once connected to tailscale, you will see devices on the tailscale network and their relative IPs to the tailscale network. Connect to that IP and port and that should allow you to connect.
Came from Arch and OpenSuse. Fedora has been such a great switch. As I’ve gotten older and became a dad, my computer time at home is limited and I don’t have endless evenings to troubleshoot shit. Fedora has been stable for me for the last 4 years. I use the KDE spin.
That might be the case. But I have done a great job of reducing the power load of my server from 1200 watts down to 65 watts. And I am slowly trying to get the point that I can off load my servers to solar and battery. I live in a place with not so great of sun.
But I realize I didn’t include that in the original post. So, fair point and thanks for the info!
I would want to do a cluster. Just to learn how that works. But just thinking of the electricity cost, I would personally donate them.
I probably wouldn’t do it. I do have AI help at times, but it is more for bouncing ideas off of, and occasionally it’ll mention a library or tech stack I haven’t heard of that allegedly accomplishes what I’m looking to do. Then I go research the library or tech stack and determine if there is value.
I just did the same thing. Grafana with Prometheus, cAdvisor, Loki, alloy. It has really stepped up my overall systems monitoring.
