No legal issues afaik. The biggest issue was Bethesda dropping a huge update on Fallout 4 right before release that broke all the mods

It's still available, there's even an easy to install version on GOG: https://www.gog.com/en/game/fallout_london

I do believe in Skyblivion coming out in a reasonable time frame a bit more than this one.

And we also have an example of Fallout London, which is arguably more ambitious

I usually reach for JavaFX because I know it well (or Fyne is the app is very simple), but these days I'd start with Avalonia first. But that's for a very generous definition of "native" basically meaning "not web"

I prefer Gelly, but I like Nocturne too, though it has some strange design choices, like horizontally scrolling lists that you have to drag with your mouse as if you're on a touch screen

Still Wakes the Deep puts you on an oil rig amid the ocean in a storm. You spend most of your time indoors though, but there are sections where you get to see the roaring ocean

still seems a bit strange that those blogs exist under gnome.org, but at least more understandable now, thanks

I do not follow GNOME development, but is it considered normal there to just post personal drama in official blogs like that?.. Like, what did I just read, who are all these people, are you OK and also who are you

I'm sorry but the screenshots make my eyes bleed. It's like the worst days of ICQ/QIP all came back

they say as much in the post

The book that scared me the most was not actually a horror book. It's a sci-fi novel, The Snail on the Slope, by Strugatsky brothers.

The repetitive dialogue is what a lot of people seem to hate about it, but that's exactly what set the existential dread in me as I was reading it. Just wandering through life half-asleep, going through the motions in a brain fog.. brrr

The Witcher 1. It's been a while since I've replayed it, but I know it like the back of my hand. Just thinking about the first chapter - gathering some White Myrtle accompanied by that lovely soundtrack - calms me down.

Hey!

I've decided that it's time to finally get something resembling an actual server for my home setup, and I was hoping you folks could give me some pointers (given the current prices).

My current set up is just my old laptop with 2 external hard drives plugged in - one is the regular portal USB HDD, another is 3.5 HDD plugged via powered enclosure (ZFS and LUKS on both). I want to switch that for something relatively small, but extendable, as I want to add more disk space in the future. I'm selfhosting Plex, Immich and Navidrome, and occasionally some multiplayer games like Valheim. I'm not planning to use Proxmox or TrueNAS/whatever, I mostly just plan to throw Debian on it and spin everything in Docker.

I looked through some guides on https://selfhosting.sh/ and on Reddit, but that just got me more confused, as everyone keeps suggesting Optiplexes and NUCs, but I don't get how to combine that with 20TB+ disk space while ensuring the disks are secure and well powered. Plus my understanding is most of those mini-PC's/refurbished workstations use regular DDR3/4, whereas I was hoping to get ECC.

Should I go DIY route, or is there something I could get as a solid enough base to expand in the future? If DIY is the answer - what mobo/cpu/case should I get? My ideal budget (for everything excluding hard drives and maybe PSU since I have one lying around) is ~500 euros, but if paying a bit more would mean a substantially better deal - then I'd be OK with that. I'm in Berlin, so if you know any good local markets - that'd be great too.

Thanks!


UPD: So, I've learned of the existence of bargainhardware, which drastically changed my approach and so far I'm leaning towards https://www.bargainhardware.co.uk/dell-poweredge-t330-tower-server

(Yes, I understand it's loud and more power-hungry than some of the other options out there, but it does tick all of the boxes...)
