If you have a Wi-Fi router in your home you are technically already running a server. With OpenWRT even quite practically, although sadly most routers are slighly too underpowered to do much with them.

The Intel Core i7 2600K will be fast enough for most regular things, but it is quite power hungry, so not so great on your power bill. Also the Intel Quicksync in it is old and thus not very helpful for hardware transcoding videos in Jellyfin, meaning you would need to do most of that on the CPU, which is much slower.

24GB RAM is definitely sufficient for most things and the SSD storage as well, although you might want to add some redundancy to that at some point.

The Geforce is pretty useless for server tasks and the NVenc chip in it is also pretty old, so I would just remove it, or maybe ask the seller to remove it and sell separately.

As a start it is probably over-powered, but the price seems reasonable.

Nice work. Redoing all the above wall piping must have been a pain.

Linking this with some sound modem to transmit text data, ideally with some automatic repetition to remove errors, will probably be much nicer to communicate with. But cool concept overall.

OnlyOffice doesn’t have “Impress”. I think you are confusing that with LibreOffice or Collabora Office.

That is pretty cool. An open hardware drawing tablet with good Linux support would be definitely nice to have.

I think OnlyOffice supports that. There is an extension for that for Nextcloud.

I think this article covers it well: https://wiki.slrpnk.net/articles:infrapolitics

We have a community for that: !music@slrpnk.net but I don’t think there really is a specific music genre for Solarpunk.

There are actually some rare mainboards for 6000/7000 series that still use DDR3.

GDP grow figures say little about how modern an economy is and in general Mao’s policies did more harm than good.

“Malicious misinterpretation of statistics” my ass.

Thanks for proving my point with sharing this graphic. See that “Mao slump” there in the 1950-1960? No other similar country had that, including other nominally socialist countries. The increase of life expectancy was a recovery after WW2 and a global phenomenon brought through by the broad availability of antibiotics and other modern medicine. Again, Mao did more harm than good and his policies certainly didn’t cause a doubling of life-expectancy.

It didn’t work out. Only after Mao’s death and a near total turn around in policies did the Chinese economy modernize. And the claim that in the parallel comment about life expectency doubling because of Maoist policies is a blatant lie based on malicious misinterpretation of statistics.

Campism, aka team sports. Critizism from academic figures is (not entirely incorrectly) identified as managed opposition, and for sure they are not a team you can simp for with the hope of them “winning”.

It’s a tiny fringe, just here on Lemmy they can be quite noisy 🤷

Indeed, no one is really interested in using fake money (aka crypto currencies). But that doesn’t mean Taler depends on banking APIs. Taler is a complete digital bank software package and some unofficial regional currencies (most notably a bigger one in Italy) have started using it fully independent of the officially recognized fiat banks or their APIs.

Again, according to the Taler website, the exchange tracks every transaction in order to prevent double spends. If it has a full view of the network, it can employ statistical analysis.

Again, you spend max. 5 minutes browsing the website and now claim you are the expert on Taler 🙄 Just because you track if a token has been spend or not, doesn’t mean you can track who spend it, or what on. This is all well explained in the Taler documentation and it has been explicitly designed to be resistant against such statistical analysis.

Why would that be better than your current solution?

It depends on the banking system with its proprietary APIs and centralized money issuance.

It does not. That is as optional as fiat exchanges with cryptocurrencies.

In order to spend money, you need to receive it first. I don’t know if it makes you a “seller” in Taler, but in any case, this partial protection probably makes de-anonymization of all transactions via statistical analysis much easier.

No, you get it from an exchange. And the resulting tokens are like physical cash and can not be de-anonymized by the exchange or anyone else in the chain. That’s like the entire point of Taler. I think you should really inform yourself better before making yourself look really stupid by confidently spreading such non-sense.

Yes, but open-core will come back to bite you in the ass anyways. Enshittification built in.
