That got really dark, really quick. I also did not know that.

That was a very interesting read. Thanks for sharing!

Finally, a real example of a Showerthought!

This is just minor datahoarding. I do it, on an extreme level.

That is so awesome. Thank you so very much for taking the time out to inform me on this matter.

Ahhh, good point! I definitely know about Virtualbox. I shall try that. Thanks!!

Yes, definitely! I believe that every living being deserves basic shelter, food, water, etc. The necessities.

So do I!

Haha, no. She hasn’t tried to take over the world yet…to my knowledge.

Thanks! I hope you do, as well!

I don’t currently have a RPi or any SBC though.

Good luck to you, as well friendly stranger!

Thanks! That is good advice and I will begin doing that to try to familiarize myself with the CLI.

Thanks for the advice. I am using Trilium to create a knowledge base as I go, and I am keeping meticulous notes on my progress, successes and failures.

Do you know anywhere that I could find a guide on how to set that up correctly? I’ve used SyncThing in the very recent past and it ended up being not good because of my own ignorance. I have syncthing on my phone and my desktop, but neither of them are syncing anything to anywhere. I’m terrified that I will mess something up and possibly lose data, or end up with a gigantic mess of files that do not belong in the synced directory. That’s what happened the only time I ever did use Syncthing. For some reason, it basically transferred a gigantic directory of things that were not relevant at all from my PC to my phone, filling up all of the storage and it was a hassle to get rid of everything that was not supposed to be there. I REALLY want the KeePass databases on my phone and on my main PC to communicate and update each other though. Entering everything in twice has been frustrating.

I was a member of r/selfhosted before I abandoned reddit altogether, but I’m not familiar with /c/selfhosted. May I ask what the C is?

I haven’t actually began to use it yet because first I am trying to understand the framework and fundamental basics of what it is that I am attempting to do. When I get a grasp on that, I will definitely be using YUNO and overwhelmingly likely will donate a good sum of money to that project.

Hello again, thanks again for the great advice. I have a question though. The traditional network model that you mention…is that also sometimes reffered to as the OSI Model? Are the two the same thing? I just want to make sure that I am studying the correct thing.

Oh, yeah. That makes sense. I never actually thought of that but that is a very solid answer.
