Hello, This is my first website and I want some feedback from you guys. It's very basic and I haven't added much. just wanted to host something so I threw invidious and whoogle instance there. My ISP doesn't provide a static IP so I had to host it on tor :( what else do you think I should host there? server spec: 15 year old computer with i3 first gen cpu.

Edit: Here is the URL if you want to visit the website: ot6ewcgzioleglf2jp2iofludol3hw5gcaycaj7n5tolf6wcu7ofbzid.onion

I have seen multiple references to running software "on a potato" in the last hour. What in the world does it mean to run something on a potato? (Like... pickle electricity? That's all I've got.) Please advise...

A potato is a very slow computer. Usually old and / or low quality. I've got no idea where it comes from though.

[-] Jfqs6m@lemmy.world 3 points 3 years ago

I would imagine it comes from the fact that you can generate electricity with potatoes

[-] Tippon@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 3 years ago

Ah, I convinced myself that I was wrong to think that. I know you can get electricity from lemons, and thought I'd mixed them up ๐Ÿ™ˆ

It originally referred to a camera, so a meme to draw attention to poor quality pictures--"camera is potato" and then "potato quality"

Ah, that makes sense, thanks :)

Just happy when my long internet history can actually contribute something.
