My new favourite password manager
I personally prefer bitwarden, using a self-hosted vaultwarden. It's free, it syncs, it's easy to use.

That's a very succinct rebuttal... I like it.

YouTube's anti-adblock rollout has finally arrived for Firefox users

It's more like using the pill and a condom. Different ad blockers can block different sets of ads.

Anyone knows a good lightweight self-hosted alternative to GitHub?

I'd definetly recommend GitLab too - but it's not lightweight.

Samsung’s new 98-inch 8K TV is the projector-beating home theater upgrade I’ve been waiting for
It'll be a long time before anything can reasonably generate that kind of resolution. Streaming is almost definitely out, and the GPU required to run a game at that at anything but minimum settings...
That said, gotta look to the future I guess. Gotta wonder if there's any tangible benefit to going over 4K, unless you're nose is up against the screen anyway.

Unfortunately, there probably would be. Hopefully it would be less popular, but some people just non-ironically think that way. Disturbing, but reality.

Private and/or cheap places to register a domain
Reply in thread
which also includes their free services
Well... their free services remain free regardless of your registrar. Still, I don't really mind supporting them given how useful they have been even in just the free tier.

domain name with your own name?
I host some private stuff on mine, hidden behind an authentication service that is. But because I just use a wildcard no-one can really tell what I have hosted - the same login page occurs for every subdomain, regardless of whether it's actually wired up to something.
That doesn't help with services you wish to make semi-public (like a lemmy instance) though.

I wonder how reddit users would respond to this sort of treatment. We've already sorta proven that most users are addicted enough that they'd get away with it.
Suppose I shouldn't give anyone ideas though...

Which OS do you use for your homeserver?
Unraid, mostly due to the flexible arrays.

Single Threaded Workload
Reply in thread
Of course - I get that. I'm a programmer myself.
But it does have to be said that there's little excuse for not doing it anymore for heavy applications, especially games. The tools/frameworks/engines have vastly improved, and people know (at least roughly) ahead of time what work is going to slog the CPU, especially in the case of a AAA studio.
Note: I'm only referring to relatively modern games here - anything that's older than when multithread really took off gets an automatic pass - it's not reasonable to expect someone to cater for a situation that doesn't exist yet.

I'm sure that really depends on the data.
If we're talking about stuff like family photos, then having it retrievable feels pretty reasonable to me.
