Going by your comments, I think you need to know a few basics before you get into people’s suggestions for actual services. Start with this: more or less, “the cloud” is just someone else’s computer. It’s bigger, the connection is faster, etc., but the services you use most likely run on a Linux computer much like the one you already have.

For experimenting with the topic, it would be good to have another computer that you can mess around with and not worry about having a usable machine. If you can cobble together a desktop from old parts it will be enough to start the learning process.

It doesn’t have to be a civil war. Unless the brain dead MAGA crowd sides with the obscenely rich, a couple of hangings would do.

Either way, if you think a few lemmy comments will turn the tide then it’s already too late.

We wouldn’t be here if they had two brain cells to rub together.

This is America.

Trump doesn’t hate the USA. He is just using it to further himself, like anything else in his life.

The mockery is that Trump is more of an embodiment of America than most realize.

Peaked in middle school.

None of that is happening. And SCOTUS ruled that the president is immune regarding any “official” actions.

There’s plenty of evidence…

Murdered would imply external forces. While I’m sure there are some influences, those are not what’s putting a knife on the country’s wrist.

Blue states, mostly.

That’s the point everyone making these memes is missing. If they actually had nukes already, none of this would be happening.

This offensive is supposed to make sure they don’t develop nuclear weapons, whether the reasoning is fabricated or not.

It doesn’t relay all traffic, that’s a fallback if a connection can’t be established.

External drives that I keep in my office at work. Also cloud storage.

Partially at most.

Clothed and sipping drinks? At this point he might as well just go home with the senator, he’s there illegitimately anyway as they have admitted.

Any word on the how?

We’re mostly fine with not buying them.

whatever helps you justify paying $120 for software

Does that sound like a lot to you?

Considering the use I got out of it, even if I switch to something else tomorrow, the cost for the lifetime pass was peanuts. I’m sure others making that decision based on the situation today will feel the same in a few years. If Plex seems like the best solution today it’s not going to fall off the cliff before $120 were worth it.

Not like FOSS projects are immune to bad decisions, and then you either fork it yourself or depend on unpaid volunteers to keep the version you like alive. There’s always some risk.

It was unnecessarily complex to accommodate their cloud infrastructure setup.

Please elaborate how you needed to “accommodate their cloud infrastructure setup”.

When I set my server up years ago all I did was log in on the web interface. Literally as simple as any other service.

I set Plex up as an inexperienced selfhoster in 2020 and it was easy.
