I recommend that you look into nagios and zabbix before you get started. Both have free selfhosted open source solutions. And both are used professionally on the enterprise level so you even gain a skillset that can earn you money!

(do we still call it that?)
Primary and secondary is what it is usually called today. I know both Microsoft and Cloudflare does at least.

The team behind MeeGo are still around and still offer linux phones. :)
Sailfish OS’s heritage lies in Nokia times, especially in the MeeGo operating system. Prior to 2011 Nokia and Intel had a vision of an open mobile operating system. Together they invested around 1 billion USD to the project and created an open source based operating system called MeeGo, which was used as a basis for several devices, such as the iconic Nokia N9. Although the Nokia N9 became the beacon of open source operating systems, Nokia decided to end the project and chose instead to continue with Microsoft’s Windows Phone OS. The rest of that is another story.
The passionate team behind MeeGo refused to quit working on the project they’ve believed in. They, or currently ‘we’ saved MeeGo by setting up a new company, Jolla Ltd., to develop the swipe-based MeeGo into the flowing user experience that is Sailfish OS. We quickly enhanced Sailfish OS to run Android apps and it became hardware compatible with Android chipsets. In November 2013, we launched the beta version of Sailfish OS to the market with the Jolla smartphone.
After using https://github.com/Anon00b/MO2 to install MO2 for Linux I just used MO2 the same way I used it in Windows and all my mods played nice.
Gnome lost a lot of functions when streamlining, just compare Dolphin to Nautilus, and instead of fighting their vision I went for a DE that works the way I want.
I love information density and easily get hooked on spreadsheet games, I feel as if that is the exact opposite of the Gnome vision.
edit: I prefer Gnome for touch only devices like Microsoft Surface Pro 7 without physical kbm.
Check if you need a flag when starting it to bind 0.0.0.0 instead of 127.0.0.1
And tlp didn’t help either? Is your model one of those dual battery ones?
I vaguely remember some special consideration there to completely drain the laptop of power. I think you can disable the internal battery in bios somewhere before removing the external battery and the ac charge and then hold the power button for half a minute or so.
Depending on the use and the size of your graphics card you might be better of trying Gemma 4 12B too.
On my Nvidia 5060 Ti 16GB I can use either Gemma 4 A4B IQ3_M (larger model but highly compressed) or Gemma 4 12B Q8_0 (smaller model but much less compression) and after a night of testing with the Gemma 4 12B Q8_0 I’d say it’s a better helper when it comes to coding but a worse gm for my dnd inspired fantasy world roleplaying adventure.
I imagine your “setup a selfhosted environment” is closer to the first.
Easy setup would be to use koboldcpp + SillyTavern + Gemma 4 26B A4B GGUF of the largest quant your graphics card can fit together with your context.
Remember to setup SillyTavern to allow network connections and create a user and password, default installation is localhost only.
Set the temperature to 0.3 if using IQ3_M, higher quants allow higher temperature, and make sure all the formatting templates inside Advanced Formatting are set to Gemma 4.
Then use either Gemma 4 itself or the free google.com AI to create some “W++ Denze with Horizontal Lines summaries for Gemma 4” of the relevant documentation of the latest version of the home server apps your friends are gonna install.
You should ensure the resulting lorebook entries are no more than 1k tokens each to leave some context for your friends chats, add it to a character card in SillyTavern and set some keywords to allow them to load dynamically and not stay in context memory all the time.
Regarding the character card you can ask Gemma 4 to write that for you too, I find “Write a character card in W++ Denze with Horizontal Lines style for Gemma 4 with this name, personality, attitude and skillset” works well for that.
Then ask it to write a “First message prompt that starts with X, continues with Y and ends with Z for that character card” and you get a first draft to rewrite and paste into the “First Message” of the character card. The first message works as a template that Gemma 4 will imitate when you chat with it. Then simply try the chatbot out before letting others use it.
I find my own Gemma 4 26B A4B IQ3_M works well for practicing hiragana and katakana, discussing programming or troubleshoot existing code or writing a small function but it can’t be expected to write a correct DatabaseService.cs from scratch and stuff like that.
Oh and forget about finding good cards and lorebooks for SillyTavern use online, most users use it for NSFW Roleplaying chats. It is a very easy UI to use to create harnesses for your local LLM though.
I should honestly add this to your OP, it will definitely give you more test pilots. :)
I would
a) Use the reset button to fully reset the ThinkPad using the Emergency Reset Button - this has solved more than one weird hardware error for me in the past.
b) Let the battery discharge completely, or at least to below 10% and then let it charge overnight to ensure it gets completely topped up.
If neither of those helps I would probably unseat the battery and plug it back in again just to check.
It’s honestly the same as with Windows - search engines and manuals.
When you get stuck explain what you want to do, what you’ve tried and what guides/manuals you’ve used and you’ll get good responses from most of the linux communities.
I know both ASRock and MSI released bios updates for AM4 boards, ASUS didn’t. All three released updates for AM5 with the new 2023 CA certs.
Nah, but there should be a BIOS/UEFI firmware update available and those are always nice to keep up with.
If Secure Boot is the security guard at the entrance then updating the BIOS/UEFI gives him the latest rulebook and will make the process simpler if you decide you want Secure Boot in the future.
The update can also have other fixes that you want.
There are ton of great selfhosted tools for tts and similar interfaces.
I used https://github.com/resemble-ai/chatterbox to make my own voice read my epubs, albeit with an american accent which I definitely don’t have in real life. It was close enough to put the voice in the uncanny valley according to my wife.
I think most end users will go for a cloud app or website for their needs though, playing around with self-hosting isn’t for everyone.
While it is a bit of work to rename the files that would still be my recommendation. I find jellyfin to be a great match for my anime that way.
The big three producers refusal to expand will hurt them a lot, chinese producers like cxmt got a great way in and have already started producing dram that works for ddr5 6000mhz.
Only thing I can think of is to remove your default account from the sudoers file and have an account with a frustratingly long password written on physical paper hold the keys to the kingdom. That will make a whole lot of other things a hurdle too though.
Daring of them to move from one .org domain to another .org domain. One would’ve thought that a domain managed by any other country would be a safer bet.
