This is how I set up my headless home server with a Jupyter Lab Docker container with an Nvidia GPU runtime. Login is handled by a GitHub OAuth application. Nvidia drivers and the container runtime permalink First, check here (replacing the CUDA version in the URL with your own) to see which Nvidia drivers you need for the CUDA toolkit version you want. I’m using CUDA 11.4.2, which means I need at least driver version 470.You can use sudo apt purge nvidia-* to cleanly remove older drivers (or broken installs) before installing the desired version.

This guide shows how to host multiple Minecraft servers on a single machine with docker-compose. mkdir minecraft_server cd minecraft_server mkdir data/ wget /post/minecraft/docker-compose.yml \ -O docker-compose.yml This docker-compose setup uses itzg’s Docker image, which you see further documentation for here. If you’re moving from a vanilla Minecraft world, do the following to get the different world directories in the right position: cp -r ${OLD}/world data/server/world mkdir data/server/world_{nether,the_end} mv data/server/world/DIM-1 data/server/world_nether/DIM-1 mv data/server/world/DIM1 data/server/world_the_end/DIM1 Here’s the map from vanilla Minecraft directories to Spigot directories (which is what itzg’s container uses):

This is how I set up my own Matrix server with Docker.These instructions were originally for ARM, back when I ran this server on a Raspberry Pi. Unfortunately, the Matrix community stopped releasing ARM images, so the latest version that will work on ARM without QEMU is v1.26.0, which is very old now. These instructions have been updated to use amd64 images, but I’ll preserve the references to ARM images as comments. If you’re going to work from a Pi, be sure to switch it to run in 64-bit mode for optimal performance: echo 'arm_64bit=1' | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt && sudo systemctl reboot. There is an Ansible playbook that’s quite popular, but I host a lot of other services with Docker on the same server and I wanted to continue managing all of them together, just with docker-compose.

LaTeX has a ton of different flavors, releases, and installations: MacTeX, MiKTeX, TeXworks, XeTeX, pdfTeX, LuaTeX… If you’re using Linux and just want to edit LaTeX files in Visual Studio Code and have them automatically rendered as PDFs, follow these instructions: On Arch-based distros, install the packages listed here. On Debian-based systems, sudo apt install texlive. Install some Perl dependencies: sudo cpan Log::Log4perl Log::LogDispatch Log::Dispatch::File YAML::Tiny File::HomeDir If you want to use FontAwesome on Arch-based systems, install the oft-font-awesome package and then do the following (source):

GPG is cool. You can use GPG to send encrypted messages, sign files to prove you generated them, and sign git commits to prove you committed them. You can get my key here. DigitalOcean has a neat guide to getting started with GPG. It explains asymmetric encryption, key generation and revocation, and key signing and maintenance. Git commit authorship can be modified by anyone, as demonstrated by this tool. But by uploading your GPG public key to GitHub, you allow anyone who trusts GitHub to be sure that commits marked “verified” were actually created by you.
