  • I’d suggest learning what docker is and how to use it if you are trying to host it which is “installing” a web page.

    If you want an icon to go to a dedicated window (web app experience) there are lots of options with lots of advantages and disadvantages. Just research progressive web apps. This method is going to require the frontend be hosted so you either need an instance that is using this frontend or you need to host it yourself.

    Also to let you know. You’re getting downvotes because this is a very lazily asked question. You didn’t link to what it is you need help with, you asked the question in a manner that suggests you have done no research.

    No hate since everyone is a beginner but I really suggest you spend a little more time crafting your questions to the community. Also read a little on docker and how lemmy front ends work.

    In the meantime this should help you get started.

    Docker Official Documentation

    Afterwards go to the git repo of this ”app” pages source code. There is a one command solution to deploy it.

    Mlmym GitHub

    As long as docker is installed and set up you should just be able to enter the command for the deployment to get it running.

    Go to http://localhost:8080 or if that doesn’t work https://localhost:8080 in your browser as indicated by the command and there is your front end.


  • Blacklisting is definitely a thing. It also depends on the device and the firmware it runs. There can be a lock on the firmware that can be triggered depending on the carrier (and the firmware of the device). I have heard of a bug in the past where a carrier that had no right was locking iPhones that were unlocked on a byod but that was like in 2013. It was also a bug.


  • You make good points here for the beginner however there are better alternatives and solutions for basically everything you mentioned here. The biggest I want to address is conflicts on your system. Generally running servers on metal is just outright bad practice. Containerize. Always containerize. There are lots of great options. Docker, podman, Lxc, helm, flatpak… hell. Snap if you must. Running servers on metal is generally is just asking for trouble unless the system’s entire purpose is for that. Also the cg-nat situation. Personally been behind it for a few years but it’s not a problem as long as you have a reverse proxy tunnel in place. Not a hard fix at all.


  • Just to elaborate here. You are describing one implementation of a blockchain that provides a cryptocurrency. Blockchain is literally just another form of a database. It’s just that it can contain traits that would allow the database to be shared and distributed unlike typical databases. Currently there are some companies that are utilizing blockchain for their inventory systems. They aren’t using any more energy than they would with a typical system. They are just doing it to keep an unchanging record of past transactions which helps with fraud and loss prevention.

    P.S. Money laundering using a system that is publicly distributed and has every transaction involving usd paired with an ID, social security number and enough pictures of your face to make a 3D model is genuinely idiotic.



  • Yeah, I’ve been testing nouveau with NVK+zinc. Can definitely confirm that the Nvidia open source drivers are getting better and it’s happening fast. Desktop experience is nearly flawless now except quite a few games still don’t work and Nvidia specific features are disabled(cuda, rtx, dlss). AMD is def the way to go for a good experience on Linux.

    I’m just hoping to see things change seeing as Nvidia hired the nouveau maintainer and he has been contributing directly to nouveau using his Nvidia provided email here as of late.


  • Debian is a pretty safe choice overall but and I’m sure I’m going to get downvoted like crazy but arch has been a fantastic server OS for me for a while. Debian is pretty hands off but I have some pretty unorthodox requirements/hardware setups and the combination of the wiki and such a wide range of packages supported has enabled me to use the hardware to its fullest potential. Also rolling release lts kernel is pretty dope.



  • To add to this. Both parties told all other creators that all music that was made in this dispute would not be subject to copyright claims. So far all claims made from Kendrick’s label have been dropped which has allowed critics to listen freely and even remix and make work from the original work. Drake said the same was going to be the case for what he put out however in typical fashion Ovo/umg has claimed all content that contains any of drakes source material. I’m generally not into this kind of public beef but in basically every regard Kendrick is right and Drake is pretty much the most pure example of everything that is wrong with the music scene today.
