Snippet: I’ve played some of these before, albeit a very long time ago. But I thought it would be fun to revisit them after playing most of the games that came later. Note, I didn’t do the Master Levels. I completely forgot about them until I’d finished all three, by which point I’d had enough.

Snippet: Been a lurker here for a bit, so I decided to share my recent build. Still a work in progress so the pics are bit of a mess. Definitely nervous about sharing haha. Went overkill because I wanted to build something unique, experiment with cloud computing /Type-1 Hypervisors, and running LLMs for my upcoming MSCS AI/ML program (fingers crossed I get accepted in to GA TECH 🤞🏾) The first few screens are from my testing…

Snippet: For me, it HAS to be the 1998 Cavalese cable car crash - long story short, 4 U.S. Marines were flying a Prowler too low and too fast and off course through Italian mountains, while filming the flight. They ended up striking the cables of a cable car full of people, killing 20 skiers inside that fell to their death. Once landed, they destroyed the videotape and damaged (on purpose or not) the FDR, making the data unav…

Snippet: I've been working on something for this community (and other self-hosted communities) for almost 5 months now. Personally, I would grade it as probably the closest open source equivalent of Manus and parts of Perplexity compared to the field right now. It has been a fuck ton of work, and I am in the final steps of releasing it. To give you the gist, its a deep research+builder+agent application. It has basically been…

Snippet: Hey everyone, Looking to simplify my portfolio from ~24 individual holdings down to 12 high-conviction themes/positions . I’m heavily bullish on AI long-term (spanning compute, physical power/cooling bottlenecks, cloud hyperscalers, and enterprise software), while keeping broad S&P 500 indexing as the foundation.

Snippet: For quite some time, I ran my own infrastructure to cover the digital needs of my parents and mine. It started when I was using a WD mycloud back in 2019 (?) when they suddenly decided, that their backup-and-sync solution, which was free and ok-ish (turnover time for 1 file around 2 min), should actually cost something and they switched to goodsync with no way to keep the old system.

Snippet: I’ve been working on Orbis AppSec [1], and I wanted to share what we’ve been building and get some feedback from the DevOps/AppSec community. The basic idea is pretty simple: most security tooling is good at telling you, “There is a vulnerability in this repository.” But someone still has to figure out: - Is this actually exploitable? - Is it a false positive? - What is the right fix for this codebase? - What depen…

Snippet: Is there any ready‑to‑use, easy‑to‑configure local AI tool that can do proper research on information from the internet? What I’m looking for is something that runs fully locally, but still has the ability to search the web and scrape/collect data from websites and ideally does it in a sensible, reliable way without being locked behind a paywall.

I applied earlier this year but failed the initial interview, which resulted in a 12-month waiting period before I can apply again.

Snippet: I've run Unraid on my main server, Tower, for almost 10 years. It served me well, and I'd still recommend it for a lot of people. But over the years my server went from basically a NAS with some Docker containers to ~150 TB, 15 data disks, 60+ containers, custom applications, business infrastructure, media, home automation, backups, etc. At some point I think I just outgrew it and some of the slackware quirks. I also…
