Home Assistant with a bunch of ZigBee sensors?

Go https, today there is no real reason not to and tons of good reasons to do it.

Let’s encrypt is 100% free and using their certbot its also automated and easy to do.

The open source market for smart watches sucks. Gadget bridge doesn’t really work for any “new” (i might be wrong here) devices.

Luckly Garmin watches are top notch and the software side its pretty good. You can not install the app and manually download all activities files via USB if you like.

That’s really true. I was lucky enough to lose data, but be able to recover it. Very lucky.

And you find out you are not really backing up enough!

All my got repos are on my server, not public. Then backupped on my restic, encrypted.

Only the public keys are under backup tough, for the private ones, I prefer to have to regenerate them rather get stolen.

I mean, when like in foegejo you add the public keys for git push and such.

Tell me how that would have helped at all? Can zfs Unformat a drive? Don’t think so…

Zfs is not backup guys. Snapshots too, are not backup!

I feel you man! Lessons are really learnt only the hard way!

Many suggest zfs, I want to spend a word on ext4 instead. Solid, reliable, well proven. Does the job and works pretty well.

Been on ext4 on RAID1 for decades, since it got stable. Never had an issue, except when I borked it by my mistake.

It has maybe less features than zfs, but doesn’t need external kernel patches or complex tools, and again its solid, well proven and very stable

Edit: ext4 on top of Linux software raid (mdadm)

DNW, it happens, but you made me doubt my memort eheheh

Yes, but if I can stream games to my mobile device that could be an acceptable treadeoff, if the card doesn’t drain too much when idle

If and when, I will have plenty of time to migrate. I hate plexification and will indeed switch to emby IF and WHEN.

So far, seems jellyfin is under a copyleft license, so unless they break it, I think I am fine.

And sincerely, jellyfin totally rocks.

Is jellyfin getting enshittified? Why you say that? Doesn’t seems like its following plex

Why?

Could be an interesting project tough, will definitely think about that. Not top priority, but why not since the hardware its free?

Thanks!

Both the 2060 and the 1060 don’t support AV1 either way, so I guess its pointless to me.

Cool idea!

Yeah look like a lot… Probably not worth it.

Not depend on a specific corporation to access all your services for one.

A reverse proxy (I use nginx) will let you centralize certificates and allow the use of subdomains easily, without depending from a specific service provider like cloudflare.

Looks like you are are a lucky american with access to a real IP address, good for you, a luxury nowadays where CG-NAT is common place everywhere.

Opening a port is not even possible where I live.

I am not using either. Sync via syncthing and web interface via Photo view. More basic, but fits my bill.

I manually sort synched photos into folders for photoview to pick them up.

Just food for thoughts.

I have been far luckier than that all my life, I never had a drive fail on me, and I keep them a looong time.

Maybe once, 20 years ago, a drive failed? Can’t really remember, but probably it did happen. Being on a Linux software RAID 1, just remove and plug a new drive, run an attach command and forget.
