You can run a basic model on pretty mid-range hardware, the smaller ones are only 1-2GB in size.

Why would that be the case?
I thought about an upgrade for a minute from my 3700X, but I realized none of the games I play or programs I use are demanding on CPU enough that it would make any real difference in my experience.
Games have kind of stalled out for me too, I haven’t played a AAA game in years it feels like, and the other games I do play are not that demanding on modern hardware.
I would also need to upgrade to DDR5 RAM which is just more cost for a marginal upgrade.
Looks like around 4Mbps link speed, so great for sensors and remote monitoring/controls and that kind of thing.
Sort of in between LoRa and normal Wifi.
Does rclone support Proton Drive? That’d be an option until an official client comes out.
Yeah that’s fair.
Common cloud storage such as google drive should be pretty resilient for the average person, data stored there is replicated in multiple data centers and verified with checksums, and it provides a trashcan and versioning in case of accidental deletion.
Good backup software will just do that as part of its thing, like Restic for example.
That’s why you have 2, there’s no solution for long term storage that requires zero checking on things that I can think of.
Like, what technology normal person has access to counts at least as enthusiast level archival?
Cloud storage? Store it on 2 different providers like B2 and iDrive or something, pretty low complexity.
There isn’t a full alternative, but if you just want text chat with some voice chat added on there are options like Matrix.
How would I join a community without knowing anyone with that setup?
I just do full system images for that reason, easier than trying to pick and choose what should be backed up. Used to use Veeam, currently using Synology Active Backup.
For online backups I don’t due to size, but for local backups it’s just way easier.
No ads on YT with Firefox + uBlock, not sure why your setup isn’t working.
What’s the alternative though, we have Chrome and Firefox as choices. Chrome is far worse than some issues with Firefox around CEO pay.
To install at minimum you’ll need to likely shrink existing partitions and create new ones for linux if you don’t want to wipe the drive, that would be a dual-boot setup with Windows still installed along side. Or you can just wipe the drive entirely and have only Linux.
Regarding the files you should already have backups of anything important, if you don’t, set it up ASAP.
Messing with partitions can easily cause data loss if something goes wrong.
You also never know when hardware failure, malware, power surges, lightning strikes, or whatever other disaster will happen and cause data loss. 1 copy of files might as well be 0 copies.
It’s a public site that’ll be backed up regularly, what kind of important data would you be putting out publicly?
How did they end up thinking that everything must be done with terminal while using Ubuntu?
Most guides on installing things or help on fixing things will offer terminal commands, so I can see how that could certainly lead to that feeling as a new user.
Also depending on the DE and stuff certain very basic obvious settings are not available in the GUI, like fractional scaling on KDE which has to be done by editing some config file first.
Couldn’t tiling just be done with an app like how PowerToys FancyZones does it on Windows? That way anyone could just install it when wanted.
Yeah and gas stations often have an employee and cameras around which probably makes theft occurrences less likely compared to a charging station that has no one around and likely no dedicated cameras in place.
They have over-pressure vents and will vent pretty violently and catch fire, but should not explode due to pressure build up.
