Your home server might have the required bandwidth but not requisite the infra to support server load (hundreds of parallel connections/downloads).

Bandwidth is only one aspect of the problem.

That solves the media distribution related storage issue, but not the CI/CD pipeline infra issue.

Exactly the same rationale as mine.

On Ubuntu, replacing Firefox/Thunderbird snap version with actual deb version.

I came here to tell my tiny Raspberry pi 4 consumes ~10 watt, But then after noticing the home server setup of some people and the associated power consumption, I feel like a child in a crowd of adults 😀

Remember NOT to store any private data or login to any account as this VM is not hosted on your system.

Use this server just to test out distros quickly.

If you just want to try a Linux distro out, you may use https://distrosea.com/

it’s just more configurable

That’s an understatement 😄 The amount of configuration KDE offers is mindbogglingly to me. Again, UX and degree of configuration are very subjective matters.

You may try immutable OS like NixOS. Modern-day kernel has way better hardware support than earlier days.

Same for me, but via Cloudflare tunnel. No need to expose your system to world unless that is what you want.

On Ubuntu, only the server version of driver is available at this point.

nvidia-dkms-565-server

Variable refresh rate (VRR) allows your display to match the framerate of an image source, such as a game — and doing so prevents screen tearing. Support for VRR has been added to the cosmic-comp compositor and Displays Settings. You can set VRR to be either always on or automatic, which will enable VRR for fullscreen content.

I miss my computer’s performance being held hostage by “Active Protection” feature of Virus scanner!

Flatpak version is not v3 optimized, I think.

It is 🙂
