yeah but it’s hard to find stock photos of cops beating up trees in the Black Forest

It says, “American police, when they find out what “der Schwarzwald” means in english”. “Schwarzwald” means “black forest”

Sounds a lot like what Charlie Kirk said about guns…

I have a similar setup, 3 mini pcs (2 dell, 1 hp) with a second 2.5Gb interface on each and a synology nas.

Initially I used iscsi for storage but I had a couple of annoyances that I encountered:

• At that time, taking snapshots on vms using iscsi storage wasn’t possible.
• My Synology NAS doesn’t have a way to natively install a 2.5Gb interface, so I used a USB 2.5Gb NIC. Occasionally (like one or twice per year, from my recollection) the NIC would stop working and my VMs would lose their storage. Easily fixed by rebooting the Synology and VMs, but annoying none the less.

Because of that I ended up installing an SSD in each node and creating a CEPH storage cluster. No more issues with VMs losing storage and it gave me the ability to create snapshots.

My current environment is 17 LXCs and 4 VMs living in a ceph cluster that runs on each proxmox node. Using PBS, I have backup jobs scheduled across 4 days each week, 2 of the days backup to my nas and the other 2 backup to Backblaze.

I’ve never encountered any noticeable bottlenecks with my current environment so I think you’ll be just fine

It’s Android with a version of the Niagara Launcher running

It took me way too long to figure out that this isnt about the band TesseracT and I was very confused, but now relieved.

When I was in high school I was playing WoW when Wrath came out. I was doing a lot of PUGs so there wasn’t any coordinated voice chat so I HAD to type in order to communicate, so that’s when I really learned to touch-type.

360 for me. All my friends had one and spent soooo much time playing halo 3 and GoW online. Good times

Instead of a Roku Stick, you could use the Google TV Streamer or Apple TV 4K…………Amazon’s Fire devices are also an option, but I figure anyone with moral qualms against Fox may have similar issues with anything tied to Jeff Bezos.

I got a kick out of the article recommending Google and Apple like they’re the ethical option against Amazon here. Any sane person with moral qualms against Bezos will have plenty about Google and Apple too, so let’s not pretend that any of them are anything less than evil.

As of right now I’ve used 1.97TB, but I’m usually closer to 1.5TB

So I ask, when you are hosting something that is entirely dependent on a commercial entity to function, is Plex really selfhosting in the spirit of this community?

I understand where you’re coming from but, to me, self hosting is an ethos, not a checklist. If self hosting has to be void of a commercial entity then my services at home that are available externally aren’t self hosted since I have to rely on my ISP for that to work. And all of the electricity for my servers comes from a commercial company so those aren’t self hosted. And using a public domain isn’t self hosting.

I’m not switching at this time because I already bought a lifetime pass about 7 years ago. If ANY of my functionality gets changed by Plex then I’ll be switching

The photos in this listing show the retail box. It’s China alright

It will never be ethical to buy Subnautica 2 as long as Krafton is still involved.

I don’t allow registration but I can manually create accounts. My server is just for me and a few others so this is perfectly fine for me

Surely this would be nearly impossible for visually impaired people, which makes me question the ability for governments to implement this on their websites.

I know about screen reader software for visual impairment, but to expect a blind person use a separate device with a camera to take a “photo” of a QR code on another screen is beyond comprehension. Well, at least it would be in the normal timeline.

I guess I’ll have to switch to a dumb phone out of spite now.

Your work is appreciated, cheers!

Hey Daniel, thanks for making this and 4.0 has been a great update! I’ve been using this with owntracks since I saw it posted here a few months back and it’s been great.

There is one thing that I was wondering about - do you have any plans to be able to smooth out wonky data that gets imported? In my case it’s from google takeout. I recently imported my location data from my old google takout backup and location data is all over the place. For example, here is my 2017 trip from the US to Japan and back. I totally understand that this is a problem with the data though

It’s just a hobby so i know I have room for improvement, but the bigger my environment gets the more difficult it is to keep everything completely up to date, like you said. Given that, my main priorities are:

• have as few internet facing services as possible
• use a reverse proxy
• separate external and internal servers with a dmz
• use fail2ban or crowsec on servers that have ports forwarded
• firewall geoblocking
• BACKUPS, local and remote

Now that being said, I’ve started to use ansible playbooks for deploying OS updates. I have a playbook that uses default options when doing an apt upgrade and it also works for the docker engine user prompt.

About 75% of my services are native installs in LXCs and I try to always install by including the app repo so that apt can update it and the other 25% are in docker. I used to use watchtower but that’s no longer maintained, so I do container updates manually as needed.

It’s not perfect, but it’s just for fun so 🤷

My first reaction is: lmao fuck Krafton

My second reaction is: you absolute fucking idiot, what did you expect when you sold to a mega corpo??
