Well, as everything, it is safe is you do it right. If you are just starting, you could try running some services in LAN, or if you don’t have the hardware, a cheap VPS with VPN or some other tunneling. That way, you’re not exposing your data to the wider internet.
Of course, you should keep backups of everything you deem important, and once you start feeling more comfortable, you may try opening up your services with a reverse proxy (caddy, nginx) and some authentication (authelia, authentik). You can try hosting simple things, things that expect to be open to the internet, like a game server.
If you’re limited by your hardware, you can start planning to buy something bigger. But I don’t recommend it to just get started; you can do a lot of learning with basic hardware (and the prices are crazy right now too).
Edit: seconded what ghost_laptop said, an e-mail server is kind of the hardest there is for self-hosting. There are solutions like mailcow, but even that is very hard to set up.
Literally just copying the game folder. I compress it as much as I can with 7zip and I put it on gameyfin. It works for games that don’t have DRM*
Gameyfin is just for metadata and to download the games, it doesn’t actually get them for you.
*For some games you need to do something extra. If you’re interested I recommend you this resource.
It’s funny I see this, as I’m on my phone while I rip and compress my (DRM free) steam games to put in gameyfin.


Paid by hours worked, at 10€/h and not given enough work.


A job that makes me in an hour more money than I make at my current job in a year? Sign me the fuck up.


0.5c = 0.25m + 0.25h and you don’t need to normalize.
Basically metal gear: ground zeroes’ plot.


The window panes were cut from irregular sheets, and they were simply installed with the thicker part at the bottom, for structural integrity.
It was a manufacturing quirk.
I realized right after I posted, and it annoys me as well…
But I can say I did check prior to posting, and they were the same darker shade.
…or were they? 😝
The speed of sound of the material. So, if the stick is made of steel, it’d be like ~6000m/s. Which is way faster than the speed of sound in air, but not even close to the speed of light.
In behalf of the collective, I’m appalled that you would compare us to slop, and kindly request that you refrain from this behaviour in the future. Good day, sir. /s
I can read the difference between a pure uncompressed .txt file, and a nasty compressed .txt file that was inside a (yuck!) .zip folder
I see your point. Still, it shows there’s no such thing as a “super duper stick” because there’d be shearing forces pulling the atoms apart faster than they can move together.
It’s actually simpler: the stick will deform because whatever movement you do travels across the stick at the speed of sound of the material the stick is made out of.
Ding ding ding! We have a winner!

Do you know why we stopped the car? 🎵


For more general usage, you can try Redirector.
You just add a rule like
Redirect: https://www.reddit.com/*
To: https://old.reddit.com/$1
It allows to redirect to alternative frontends, and redirect other webs like YouTube too :)
Works fine. A bit slow to load, but less than 10s. Media plays just fine :)
