Finally managed to get my hands on 2x1TB NVMe’s. Budgets are tight these days … :-) They are Crucial P310 … hope they are reliable, although I suspect nowhere near Samsung stuff.

My homelab is essentially my own passion project and only really I access it except for when I spin up the occasional game server for friends.

USB Copy “No Permission” Error When Mirroring

Fauxx is an open-source Android privacy tool that poisons data broker and ad-tech profiles by generating continuous, plausible, off-demographic synthetic activity from your device. The goal is simple: make your real behavioral signal statistically indistinguishable from noise.

I was thinking a bit about the bugs I found in the Piefed codebase yesterday. And these led to an emergency fix by the dev that’s now been implemented. https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/commit/093a466935849f27b3ecf2eab159129186320417

So here is my dilemma. I have a Truenas server that basically acts as a file server. I also have a little machine running Proxmox. I have an NFS share on the Proxmox machine for saving VM backups so that they are secure. On the Proxmox VM, I want to install docker instances. Some of them require large data repositories so I can’t have the data stored on the VM. I’m thinking of creating an “apps” dataset on the Truenas machine, then exporting it via NFS and mounting on the VM. Then I redirect all the Docker volumes on this NFS share. Say I have Docker_App1 on the Proxmox VM, then I would create a folder in the /mnt/Truenas_share/Docker_App1. Do you think this will work? The alternative is to create an individual dataset on the Truenas machine for each Docker_App but this feels overkill and a nightmare to setup and maintain. How are you managing Docker volumes over NFS?

Quick tip: to avoid popups/ads and #trackers, consider 💻 #Firefox + #NoScript, on 📱 #Android try #Fennec.

I’d like to know if there are any significant differences or if they remain somewhat similar between the latest version of OpenSearch (3.6.0) and the latest version of Elasticsearch (9.4.1).

Has anyone tried Nym VPN? I know it’s different from Mullvad VPN, Proton VPN, and IVPN as it’s decentalized, but aside from that, what else makes it stand out from the others? It looks interesting and was thinking about trying it out, but I know it’s a newer VPN and I haven’t been able to find reviews about it and wanted to see if it’s even worth it.

Recently I’ve installed luci-app-banip on my OpenWrt router and blocked most countries from accessing my services on my network. Not seeing why I would want any of that traffic I also blocked the whole of the ARIN registry, responsible for IP addresses from Canada and the United States. Edit: Note this is only for inbound traffic. Outbound traffic is allowed no matter the target country.

Heya,

Is there a good android app thats dedicated to reading epubs from your ABS instance? I dislike a lot of things about the native reader in the native app and was wondering if there is something (’Still’ seems good but its just for ios)

Our family watches TV trough IPTV and via streaming services and it’s been fine enough for quite some time. However, now one of our broadcast companies got in a fight about streaming contract with our IPTV provider and we lost a few of the channels. Not that big of a deal for me personally, but apparently there’s some shows the rest of the family wants to see. This isn’t the first time and likely it won’t be the last.

I spent some time trying to get this to work so I thought I might as well share it if anyone is interested.

Do you have any advice or suggestions about it?

Hey y’all, looking to land my first DevOps Engineering role soon, and figured I should use enterprise software as much as possible for some resume building and personal practice. For reference, I’ve set up a NAS server once before but haven’t got too much experience outside of that. Basing this on some DevOps Engineers I’ve talked to IRL and some friends who hire engineers, but wanted extra community feedback.

Does anyone run one of the above on a Pi 4 and can share their experience how good or bad they run?

[SOLVED] I kind of figured it out by doing some minimum amount of bank transfers, I concluded that the only needed domain in order to make push notifications work for my banking app is mtalk.google.com.

Hello,

Alright so my lab is pretty much functionally complete; it does everything I was hoping it would and much more.

These are super disorganized thoughts. To clarify the title, I’m targeting people who may be interested in contributing to a project like OpenStreetMap but aren’t interested in the narrow focus of things like roads, sidewalks, bike paths, houses, etc. I aim to capture some of the insane breadth and detail OpenStreetMap accommodates, but without just throwing you at the wiki and telling you to go nuts. That said, here’s a list the wiki maintains of some map features. Note that these are standardized essentially by consensus/usage, so if you think something’s missing, you can bring it up in forums like the wiki and try to gain consensus to formalize it into a standard.

I’ve been travelling a lot lately and am looking for a good way to turn a hotel’s TV into a jellyfin client without needing a super long wire from a laptop or something, just plug it into the tv and you’re good. LineageOS has some stuff but it seems like everything needs a specific device made at a specific time and specific patch number for some hacky implementation, is there anything that is a good package deal, wont blow the bank, doesn’t need much tinkering and will always work? I hate KODI btw, the interface is terrible. Something android related seems ideal. The point is to be as easy and lazy as possible, I get off the flight tired as hell and I want to just slam it into the TV and die a little without fiddling with anything and not get tangled on wires

What to people use and recommend for this? I’ve read a bit about portainer, but I’m still learning - and don’t know what the best solutions are.

Hello everyone!

I am trying to choose an email provider, to use with my identifying accounts (like banks, gov ids, etc.). I feel that emails for such cases do not need to be end-to-end encrypted, since most information would already be present with banks, gov, etc.

There are a lot of games missing from repack websites, and others like SteamRIP only offer direct downloads.

Hi!

I’ve been using Fear No Peer for a couple years and just got an email that it is shutting down permanently today.

except for nor using it at all, of course.

So I am recently looking up the options to buy a new EV and, clearly, I’ve been discussing it with my family and close friends.

Can anyone recommend a weatherproof network camera that doesn’t rely on any third party servers or a proprietary app? Bonus points if it can easily be attached to a bird feeder.

Apple wont give gyro data but firefox will, firefox wont give battery data but chrome will. Everyone gives screen size and density data.

Hello all! I have never selfhosted before, but I have a pretty extensive digital library of videogames (ROMs from a couple dozen retro systems among other executables) that my friends have expressed interested in having access. What’s the ideal software for giving them access to the library hosted on my drives? I’m picturing something like a selfhosted Steam where they see all of the games and can search via retro system, game tags, by name, etc. and each of could keep track of separate user accounts by playtime, favorites, recently played, etc. I use RetroArch and a few standalone emulators myself connected to RetroAchievements, so I figured they would need to download any emulators on their ends and then just pick and play the games as they see fit without having to have their own copies of the games.

[edit] Solution

I’m currently facing a dilemma. Right now, I have a synology NAS that I use to host my homelab containers (*arr, pi-hole, vaultwarden, Plex, etc).

What is everyone else using for VPN solutions and what are the trade offs?

I have looked at paperless in the past and just asked why? I just spent a little time setting it up to see what it was about, then I spent hours configuring it and my email server creating paperless email addresses that other emails forward to! I cannot believe I have lived this long without it.

Wanted to share https://nitter.net/ with you all. Great front end and I believe you can even selfhost it yourself. No account needed, just add any username after the trailing / or within the search field and boom, profit. Enjoy!

To the people here that host a synapse server, how do you handle registration?
