I once had rsync going and didn’t want to stop it. my xorg somehow died, managed to restart that from ssh keeping the rsync running. had to use something to move the rsyncs to a screen first. kinda cool how you can almost always just restart parts of Linux instead of the whole thing

that part isn’t a problem with Irish isps, I run a variety of things to myself without problems

normally you’d rent out a server (vps) and run it on there but hosting from your house would also work. the whole idea about Lemmy is that each instance is ran on different servers by different people

use smb ftp sftp or something similar, just make sure both laptops are connected to the router with ethernet. if the old laptop has its storage easily accessible then I might also just take it out and plug it into my sata dock

kbin is one of the different Lemmy instances

where else would you put them? with my laptop there’s a big vent across the bottom and you can’t really cover the whole thing with your legs

yeah idk if I could call it satisfying

it’s probably best that that’s gone now
