Hello! I recently deployed GPUStack, a self-hosted GPU resource manager.

It helps you deploy AI models across clusters of GPUs, regardless of network or device. Got a Mac? It can toss a model on there and route it into an interface. Got a VM on a sever somewhere? Same. How about your home PC, with that beefy gaming GPU? No prob. GPUStack is great at scaling what you have on hand, without having to deploy a bunch of independent instances of ollama, llama.ccp, etc.

I use it to route pre-run LLMs into Open WebUI, another self-hosted interface for AI interactions, via the OpenAI API that both GPUStack and Open WebUI support!

What’s your hypervisor manager? Or are you just bare metal?

For VMWare and Proxmox both, I would recommend the community edition of Veeam. It can handle up to 10 VMs for free.

If you’ve got the funds as a small-to-large business, Veeam’s first paid tier, on a yearly basis, is a solid option to backup even more.

Caveat emptor if you buy a license (or not): Veeam runs on Windows only. I have used, like, a single internal network Windows VM dedicated just to Veeam before. It has an easy to pick up UX after a little research, and the UI is clean.

There’s a handful of approaches that may be helpful for this. I don’t want to make any assumptions on what you’ve tried, yet, though. Would you mind clarifying what you’ve given a go at, so that we don’t offer something that doesn’t do what you’re looking for?

Features like this exist for putting the phone back at rest when there hasn’t been a successful unlocking for X hours – GrapheneOS, an Android OS, has a similar feature. The objective is to limit the window of time an attacker has to try to exploit anything the phone may have in operation during a not-at-rest state (when the user is still ‘logged in’ to the phone, certain background services / features may be available to exploit).

Rebooting automatically, especially if the phone not has not been successfully unlocked recently, may place the phone in a less exploitable state, as those services / features might not be available without logging in first.

If you have access to any kind of UX and UI folks, you automagicallly get a leg up on this, y’all. It is goddamn amazing.

Single dev on a personal project? Go find someone in the community who has an eye for design or hit up a design forum. Work has you on a project with only two other devs and limited resources? Ask for a favor from the UX team down the hall.

We are all tryna make good experiences out here. Let us avoid getting ‘teabagged.’

Tesla, himself, is giving a gentle thumbs up from his grave.

“We did the back-of-napkin math on what ramping up this experiment to the entire brain would cost, and the scale is impossibly large — 1.6 zettabytes of storage costing $50 billion and spanning 140 acres, making it the largest data center on the planet.”

Look at what they need to mimic just a fraction of our power.

Photopea – online, but can be used as a PWA. One of the best! Answering here, as well. Saw your other post.

This is what’s up. Buy a small Intel NUC, a USB-C combo Blueray & DVD player, and watch any service / play any content without the ridiculousness.

Spectres are reasonable TVs. Screen tech hasn’t improved drastically for the last few years, and streaming quality hasn’t had any major facelifts outside the frameworks we know and love – don’t let anyone fool you otherwise. Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc., all stream comparably to one another.

NC Password works well, but does require the server to be up – that can be a painpoint. Keeping an encrypted CSV/spreadsheet backup of your passwords for offline use is one option. Another option might be to see if this Linux Desktop Nextcloud app is still functional: https://gitlab.com/j0chn/nextcloud_password_client

Duskers looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing the link!

I suspect it may be a bit more along how you’re describing here – we expect some user experience patterns to already be in place, if not considered, like not being able to select inappropriate handles. Former Twitter folks should know ‘better.’ From the outside looking in, it tracks.

I wonder if the Bluesky team, right now at least, is more engineer / dev heavy, and they have not brought on UX folks to help drive a product design that considers patterns we’d be used to experiencing. They may be operating pretty lean.

An idea, at least.
