I did it for a while and last everything. Go for it if your have adequate backups.

Depends on if those companies invest in renewables or not. Optimistically, they will need to pivot in the next 60 years or so. I expect that the military need for oil won't go anywhere anytime soon, but there is regulation coming into play to limit automotive oil reliance. Maybe not in the US, but elsewhere.

Warhammer 40k has a huge sci-fi universe. Lore has been building since the 80s with hundreds of books. I enjoy them, but I'm not particularly well read.

Jacinda was the one.

Another vote for Veeam. I use it at home and professionally. It's a solid product and has saved my ass countless times.

I'm considering hosting an instance for personal and friend use. Have some questions. (lemmy.world)
 

I'm just trying to gauge if the performance gain will be worth the additional effort and have some questions;

I've read that back end communication is relatively cheap compared to end user content presentation in Lemmy. So, that leads me to believe that if I host my own instance, even without any communities, it would present content from other instances to me faster and more reliably. Are these assumptions correct?

Does an instance do any content caching for other instances? Ie, if I browse [email protected] and someone else does the same, will my instance need to make new requests to lemmy.ml?

Are images caches from other instances?

Obviously if my instance goes down, there's no service. Is there some sort of high availability or clustering supported?

Are updates relatively straightforward on Docker? I assume just pull the new image and you're good to go, or are there usually database migrations to complete outside of that?

Thanks for reading!
