need help to make a minecraft server in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 24 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Does it have to be pterodactyl? I have two servers set up with Docker and they were very easy to set up.

I use this: https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server

What problems can I expect using Linux (Fedora) with an NVIDIA GPU? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (3 children)

I had some weird issues with my 3080 Ti on Fedora 41 and 42 and have recently switched to a 9070 XT.

Most games ran fine, but other programs acted strange while games were open. Space Engineers, Escape from Tarkov, and a couple other titles wouldn't allow me to use other programs. The cursor would stay the same as in-game, even when alt-tabbed, and the Discord UI would become unresponsive.

I had several strange issues with my monitor flickering that didn't resolve until I uninstalled and reinstalled my drivers.

I had a horrible issue with Minecraft and other OpenGL games that caused a strobing white screen while playing. I forgot how I resolved that one.

I had to reinstall drivers several times. I don't know how much of it was self-inflicted or just how it goes on Linux.

None of these issues have come up while on my 9070 XT.

How do I use Firefox and block YouTube ads? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 33 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Just stock Firefox with the most up to date uBlock Origin (your version) should be sufficient. YouTube has been experimenting lately with some work arounds lately, so maybe you're one of the few unlucky ones.

If you're not opposed to doing it yourself, you can sign up for a free trial to Tidal and rip it.

What are some "toy programs" you've created? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

I built a Tasker program that blocks unknown numbers if toggled and allows back-to-back calls through. It uses a Minimalistic Text widget for control.

I also built one for background images. Every time I turn my screen off, my background changes to a new (blurry, gray) picture of my wife. Double tapping will unblur and color it. I can toggle switching if I like a particular picture.

I've never heard of xpipe until now - I just set it up and this is amazing

CoMaps now available on F-Droid in c/CoMaps@sopuli.xyz
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

As far as my understanding:
Repositories are like lists of available programs. F-droid will update periodically, but will not catch a fresh update or new program until the repo is updated.

Can't believe how greedy these disabled veterans are, smh in c/politicalmemes@lemmy.world
[–] jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 weeks ago

I scolded my squad leader at one point for not getting seen. He stopped during a hike to stretch his back because his legs were going numb. He still didn't go to medical lol.

Most of the people I know getting high amounts of disability are retiring after 20+ years and have many physical and mental issues. It's becoming more common due to accessibility of medical care, including mental health services.

What's a good HTPC OS and software? (sh.itjust.works)

I'm looking for the simplest form of UI to launch multiple different programs, including some games.

Currently running Windows 10 and using a FLIRC Skip 1S for launching Jellyfin and watching shows. Anything beyond those basic functions requires the wireless keyboard.

My goal is to not need the keyboard for anything and to launch games and all with the remote *or controller.

Upgraded the RAM in my server today (sh.itjust.works)

I've been hosting a Tarkov server for some friends (SP Tarkov with FIKA). I also set up a headless client to run the AI calculations and WOW it is RAM hungry. The server froze several times after running out of memory.

Just upgraded from 4x8 to 4x32 GB.

Just upgraded to Fedora 42 in probably the worst way possible (sh.itjust.works)
 

I let Discover handle updating to Fedora 42 and got a kernel panic error, so I backed up /home/ and did a fresh install of Fedora 42.

I started my restoration by nuking /home/ with sudo rm -R /home/ and then copied everything over via Dolphin as stuff was slowly torn asunder as parts unloaded from RAM. Everything seems intact so far...

[Solved - VSYNC/screen tearing] Stuttering on Nobara with 3080 Ti (sh.itjust.works)

SOLVED - "Allow screen tearing" was ON and caused this issue.

I have some constant stuttering on my current setup. Every 4-5 seconds, almost like a hiccup, I drop about 100 ms worth of frames.

Nobara with KDE

This has been persistent through several GPU driver updates and I'm tired of trying to troubleshoot it. I don't know what the exact cause is. Any ideas?

Also, related note, how easy is it to migrate from one distro to another? I am thinking about trying something else - maybe base Fedora or Arch - to hopefully have better performance.

How do I point a reverse proxy to a VPN client on my VPS? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I have a few things that I host from my house. I have read that it's better practice to route stuff through a VPS to not expose your home IP.

Here's what I've done so far: VPN setup on VPS with successful routing of containers. Confirmed by using a CLI IP check within the container which returned the VPS IP. I used PiVPN because I know it and it's easy to set up.

Where I got stuck: I pointed Nginx to the supposed IP:port of the connection, but couldn't get it to load.

What should I do next?

Exposing Immich via subdomain - good or bad idea? (sh.itjust.works)

As the title says...

Is this a risky thing?

EDIT: I have a wireguard VPN set up for myself and it's always on so I can access *arrs and the like. I would like to expose immich on my domain to share photo albums and such.

Having trouble with mouse software (sh.itjust.works)

I just switched from Windows 10 to Bazzite with KDE 6. I have experience with linux before, but not as a main OS. I have a Logitech Performance MX. I used SetPoint on Windows to fine-tune things.

For some reason, my scroll wheel acts differently in almost every program. Firefox is the only one that feels normal. My scroll wheel clicks as I scroll, and in Windows that would do 3 lines up or down.

Nothing except Firefox follows the clicking, so all my scrolling is super fine-grained as if I were scrolling with a trachpad. I tried Solaar and that gave me an option to turn off smooth scrolling, but now I need to scroll 6 or more times to see any movement. Increasing sensitivity in KDE just means after 6 times of nothing, the next one is a huge leap. There's no middle ground it seems and I'm losing my mind trying to fix this.

Is there anything else I can do?

Authentik and MeTube configured, but MeTube doesn't load correctly (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by jws_shadotak@sh.itjust.works to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
2 comments fedilink
 

I have a couple things set up:

The configuration:

  • DNS points to my IP
  • Nginx configured to point to Authentik for the metube subdomain
  • Authentik configured to point to the correct containers after authenticating

What I'm experiencing:
Upon initial login to Authentik, MeTube works correctly. Restarting or closing the browser causes MeTube to fail to connect to the server until I clear cookies and re-authenticate (see picture). Accessing MeTube by its port on the host IP works fine. All other services connect fine.

Does anyone know what is causing this?

Related note - I've seen MeTube do this before when the container wasn't even running. I think it has something to do with how much info the container caches in the browser or something.

qBit is showing and acting as firewalled but setup is correct in Gluetun (sh.itjust.works)

Setup:

Debian running podman. Containers and compose files are managed with Dockge. qBit and Gluetun are on a single compose file and all qBit traffic is routed through Gluetun.

qBit seems to starts first before Gluetun is fully set up and qBit doesn't see the open port. Every time I start them together, I have to manually restart qBit again once Gluetun is ready. Once it's restarted, it shows as open and connected again.

I tried looking for ways to delay startup in a compose file but I didn't get any results.

Is there a solution to this?

Need help using my portable monitor with a pi 4 (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've got a portable monitor that only takes one single USB-C input. The Pi 4 can't deliver enough power to keep it on. The monitor power cycles endlessly when plugged into the pi.

Is there a way I could give it more power somehow?

What's the best way to run a temporary eth cable? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm planning out my next homelab when I move soon. I have the floor plans and it looks like the best place for my computer is not centrally located, so the Wi-Fi won't be ideal. I'd like to run the cables a short distance so the router would be in a better spot.

I'm just renting and will likely only be here for a year so I don't want to do any drilling. I just want to secure the cables somehow to the crease where the wall and ceiling meet.

The total length will only be about 20 feet to the router.
