Re: Thoughts on running my own homeserver 4 months ago

From Filip Jamuljak to ~witcher/public-inbox

First off, I'd like to say congratulations on setting up your own 
homeserver! It's quite honorable in my opinion to seek independence from 
service based web.

Given that you electricity costs are rather high, you might consider 
taking some power saving steps on your system. Seeing that you are 
running 4 full hard drives, I'd focus on that first: I'd recommend you 
look into the `hdparm` command, namely its' `-y`, `-M`, and `-S` flags.

Best regards,
Filip

That is true.

I must've misunderstood the current state of the project while reading though the blog. oops.

There is a section in the billing FAQ[1] stating that you can get free 
service if you are unable to pay for some reason. Its vague about what 
are the legitimate reasons for getting free service, though they've 
shown to be pretty lax in terms of what they accept as payment[2].

Sourcehut is currently relying on stripe for all its payments, but, as

I was browsing the sourcehut earlier today and yeah, I noticed that 
people here tend to use multiple different emails for different 
occasions. I guess that's one benefit of having your own domain.
I apologize for the spam. I am still quite new to this whole "internet 
but the only account you need is your mail" thing, and honestly, I must 
say, I quite like it! It's very nice not having to click through EULAs 
and cookie usage agreements, and being bound by arbitrary usage limitations.

Anyways sorry for that, it will happen again.

(This mail is meant to be a comment to your blog post)

First of all, your sixth paragraph[1] doesn't finish it's thought.
I also notice that you're referring users on your site on multiple 
different e-mails, when a single e-mail would probably suffice. Namely, 
you're referring users to this inbox on sourcehut, but also on your 
contacts mail on your main page. Worse still, contact you give with the 
shell puzzle on screen is different from that given to the solution you 
link to on onecomplier.com differ! (also I broke your CV: I clicked on it)
regardless, I am Cc-ing this to all of them, just to be sure.

Back to my main comments, although yes, the ad placement on the sites 
you gave as an example is hilariously repulsive, most news sites tend to 
be more moderate about it, balancing it with readability.

Just looking though git-subtree manpage. This is exactly the thing I was 
looking for! I should really read up the full git documentation someday.
Thanks!

C library organization 4 months ago

From Filip Jamuljak to ~sircmpwn/sr.ht-discuss

I am going to make a C project, hosted on a remote git repository 
(git.sr.ht), but I intend on using one or more C libraries hosted on 
separate git repositories (git.sr.ht or otherwise). Given that these are 
all mine and subject to change, I was wondering what would be the best 
way to place the source and header files, as well compiled binary files, 
so that they could be combined with a toolchain using simple commands 
(git, make, and shell builtins), have independent makefiles, but 
wouldn't necessitate writing to anywhere beyond project folder?

common method I am aware of is writing a makefile that would generate 
library binaries and headers in system 'bin/' and 'include/' folders 
(usually '/usr/bin/' and '/usr/include/'), but that doesn't fulfill my 
requirement of being project local. I was thinking of placing the 
library files in the 'src/' folder, then unpacking them in the project

I was pondering over it this morning. I don't use the build tool myself 
yet, but I decided to try to help anyways. looking though your build 
log[1], Mr. Gilio, there is no obvious difference between the manifest 
of the job in question[2], and any other jobs you have built beforehand, 
save for the commit link.

given that they're all marked as pending and not failed, I'd reckon it's 
a server side issue.

Keep in mind that the repo linked is linking a photo from a filepath.
`![varda-logo](./internal/assets/static/img/varda-logo.png)`
Which, although a possible solution, the OP asked about embedding the 
image in the README in the file itself, by encoding it as base64.

Also please read the posting etiquette[1]. top-posting is frowned upon.
