You are right, but I highly doubt that he cares enough considering the quote I posted earlier. He probably also has a shitload of staff around him telling him what to do, whose life also depend on him complying.
Also, Musk bought Twitter to influence the outcome of elections, not for being a petty child that doesn’t want to be insulted online. Well, maybe, but that’s not the whole story here.
He wrote it in a book (or his writer lol), shortly before he got elected, about a year ago. Look for “Trump Zuckerberg jail threat”, I don’t know which source to cite here.
I mean, what is he supposed to do. The orange man threatened to put Zuckerberg in jail for the rest of his life if he doesn’t comply. I have not very much hope left for the upcoming testimonies regarding Steam, Twitch, Discord and Reddit.
Also e.g. the lobbying around ACPI breaking suspend to ram sometimes. Funny little Bill Gates quote on that:
One thing I find myself wondering about is whether we shouldn’t try and make the “ACPI” extensions somehow Windows specific. It seems unfortunate if we do this work and get our partners to do the work and the result is that Linux works great without having to do the work. Maybe there is no way to avoid this problem but it does bother me. Maybe we could define the APIs so that they work well with NT and not the others even if they are open. Or maybe we could patent something related to this.
FairEmail is the Gold Standard right now imho. The learning curve can be quite steep though.

Hard to give you hints when we don’t know what your background is, so here is some basics:
For starting selfhosting I’d recommend getting comfortable with the linux command line at first (this may help: https://www.linuxcommand.org/). Set up a VM in Virt-manager / VirtualBox / VMWare / whatever hypervisor you want, install a Linux image (I’d recommend plain Debian without desktop environment). Now you have a sandbox where you can toy around. If you’re on windows you can use WSL2. If you’re already on a linux desktop, toy around there.
If you already got some hardware like a raspberry pi or old Laptop, get that up and running with a distro of your choice, plug it into your network and SSH into it, then you have got your playground there. Get the basic commands in like ls, pwd, cat, tail, touch, mkdir, rm, … And some things you can do with them. Check out their respective man-pages.
After that, install some packages, change configs (I’d recommend nano over vim for starters). From now on, there are no boundaries of what to do. Set up your first basic webserver with apache / nginx / caddy, install docker / podman and containerize / get some images, set up pihole, nextcloud, jellyfin, do whatever you like… Congratulations, you are now “self hosting”.
Maybe some day switch that Raspberry pi out for a thin client as seen in the picture from OP and install a hypervisor like Proxmox on it. If you got all that, which may take a while, you can consider networking and firewalls IMHO (you could get a cheap router that supports OpenWRT to learn about these things). Don’t open ports to the internet as long as you’re not 100% sure what you are doing. You can set up a VPN with DynDNS on most modems / routers connected to your ISP though, opening up your self hosted services only to you / anyone with access. Or use something like Tailscale / Twingate.
I could go on, but like I said, self hosting and home labbing is kind of use case / requirement specific.
Buy a used 1l mini PC like the Lenovo thinkcentre tiny (or similar Dell or HP models). You will have to spend a bit more, but you could get one with a pretty capable Intel CPU from gen 7 or 8 upwards for virtualization with Proxmox.
If you’re really just looking for a x86 SBC, get a Radxa with an Intel N100 or something similar. They sell at about your price limit with low specs on Aliexpress:
I like your style, but I guess both would get you into legal trouble.
I actually plan on putting hardware related stuff on an extra pi since I only run a single proxmox node right now. Would be home assistant and nut tools for the ups but I might put pihole and unbound on that as well.
I am worried about the performance though because of home assistant. And it is pretty comfortable to have everything on one host that is far from being used to capacity anyway.
I have a suspicion that this isn’t even about culture or revenue anymore. It’s about control.
I have the same setup, you have to add the line Environment="HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0" for that specific GPU to the ollama.service file
I am on Fedora as well and have used the microsoft wireless dongle with the medisalix/xone kernel module in the past, but i stopped using it since it had me pull and plug the dongle once every while to make it work again.
Nowadays i just use bluetooth (with my xbox one and xbox series x controller). You actually don’t need any additional packages for that. Three things to consider about this:
All that said, once paired and configured it just works ™. Feel free to reach out if you need further information.
I used a raspberry pi 3 with RaspAP in this use case in my room at home for some time. Performance was not the best, but enough for my needs back then.
I’ve heard maintainers getting spammed with AI generated Issues and stuff. This is just a stupid meme from some weeks ago, trying to merge some Anime ASCII Art into the Kernal Panic log message, because the kernel should be more weeb-friendly.
You’re right, Linux Kernel development happens on an own cgit instance. Given how much Linus loves distraction, he’d be better off by not looking into Github at all.
