Meta Opens Its AI Models for the (U.S.) Military in c/technology@lemmy.world

lol someone was concerned about the Chinese military using Meta’s AI models and now the company has opened its models for US military use. Hypocrisy runs high in this timeline.

Omnivore Alternatives? [SOLVED FOR ME] in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

I agree with others that you need to break down these requirements into multiple apps. I use FreshRSS for feeds and it has a bunch of mobile app integrations.

And the most recent update of Linkwarden seems to have a ton of features that might be worth your while, including PDF, screenshot, and Readable caching.

Could it be that the one who tweets is also this scammer?

I’ve used pyTK to make some apps for personal use. Good stuff, somewhat easy to use once you follow some tutorials.

So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

Nice app! I do have an android device sitting around doing nothing. Will use this app if I ever get into it!

Ah, I'm not going there yet. OpenWRT is an eventual goal. But right now I'm stuck with devices that do not support it. I'm ok with alternate solutions.

huh. Never thought about public pihole servers. So nice of those folks running them.

I don't understand how you're saying you've stopped self-hosting VPN and are still using tailscale. Are you using their SaaS service? Does that allow you to set your own DNS? Do they have speed limits? Are they zero-logs?

Adblock and VPN all in one? (lemmy.world)
 

I love PiHole. I've used it in the past and it was powerful! I also use an OpenVPN/Wireguard based VPN.

So is there a service that combines the two features? Lets me import adblock lists and also VPN configurations?

Preferably something that runs in a docker container that I can throw upon portainer and running within minutes!

Thanks!

What's wrong with using cloudflared? (lemmy.world)
 

I read a comment on here some time ago where the person said they were using cloudflared to expose some of their self-hosted stuff to the Internet so they can access it remotely.

I am currently using it to expose my RSS feed reader, and it works out fine. I also like the simplicity of Cloudflare's other offerings.

Any thoughts on why cloudflared is not a good idea? What alternatives would you suggest? How easy/difficult are they to setup?

Replacement for Docker Desktop on Windows? (lemmy.world)
 

Folks, I have a node.js script running on my Windows machine that uses the dockerode npm package to talk to docker on said box and starts and kills docker containers.

However, after the containers have been killed off, docker still holds on to the memory that it blocked for those containers and this means downstream processes fail due to lack of RAM.

To counter this, I have powershell scripts to start docker desktop and to kill docker desktop.

All of this is a horrid experience.

On my Mac, I just use Colima with Portainer and couldn't be happier.

I've explored some options to replace Docker Desktop and it seems Rancher Desktop is a drop-in replacement for Docker Desktop, including the docker remote API.

  1. Is this true? Is Rancher Desktop that good of a drop-in replacement?
  2. Does Rancher Desktop better manage RAM for containers that have been killed off? Or does it do the same thing as Docker Desktop and hold on to the RAM?

Are there other options which I'm not thinking of which might solve my problems? I've seen a few alternatives but haven't tried them yet - moby,
containerd,
podman

I don't actually need the Docker Desktop interface. So pure CLI docker would also just work. How are you all running pure docker on Windows boxes?

Self-hosted GitHub alternative? (lemmy.world)
 

Folks,

I'm looking for a self-hosted GitHub alternative that I can just plop into Portainer as a docker-compose and get working.

My main interest is in something that sort of works with GitHub - if there's a way I can pull repos from GitHub into this self-hosted git using a webUI and maybe even push my changes to repos on GitHub, that would be nice. I'm not hard-and-fast on this though as this is mostly an experiment right now and I don't know why I need this.

What are you folks using to host your super secret local code and why?
