all you have to do is click on Settings > AI Controls. You’ll then see a very bold and prominent option called ‘Block AI Enhancements.’

- Comment on YSK that treatments for back pain can cost thousands. But some of the best fixes are actually free 6 days ago:
Is this stuff that competent physiotherapists know about? I had lower back issues and was going to physio for recovery from another joint fracture. The physiotherapist gave me some exercises for the back pain. I don’t recall what they were but the pain disappeared and it hasn’t returned 8 years later.
- Comment on Panasonic, the former plasma king, will no longer make its own TVs 1 week ago:
I used to be on the China-bad bandwagon when I bought our current Sony. I didn’t understand nearly as well how production worked as I do now. The next time I have to buy one I’d evaluate on the basis of quality regardless of origin. I’d also avoid high amount of custom software to avoid annoyance and security holes, just like I did when I purchased our current one.
- Comment on Panasonic, the former plasma king, will no longer make its own TVs 1 week ago:
Yup, that’s what I was referring to.
- Comment on Panasonic, the former plasma king, will no longer make its own TVs 1 week ago:
Aaand another one bites the dust. So who’s left that still makes non-PRC TVs? Just the Koreans I think. When I last shopped TVs I looked for non-PRC options and the only ones available in Canada were LG, Samsung and Sony. Sony already bit the dust a short while ago.
- Comment on Raid Z2 help 1 week ago:
The acl, norm, xattr options are all to make ZFS behave like a Linux filesystem.
- Comment on Raid Z2 help 1 week ago:
I do:
sudo zpool create \ -o ashift=12 -O acltype=posixacl -O compression=lz4 \ -O dnodesize=auto -O normalization=formD -O relatime=on \ -O xattr=sa \ mypool \ raidz2 \ wwn-0x5000cca284c06395 \ wwn-0x5000cca295e115f3 \ wwn-0x5000cca2a1ef9c90 \ wwn-0x5000cca295c03910 \ wwn-0x5000cca29dd216b0
I’m then going to optimize recordsize depending on the workload in datasets. E.g. Immich db might use 8K or 16K recordsize while the library dataset where the files are might be larger so that search is faster. Etc.
- Comment on Self-hosted voice assistant with mobile app 1 week ago:
HA with local LLM on Ollama. Can imtegrate the Android app as the default phone assistant. I don’t think it can use a wake word on the phone though. I invoke it by holding the power button, like a walkie.
- Comment on Self-hosted voice assistant with mobile app 1 week ago:
Using Home Assistant with Qwen locally. It functions better than any version of Google Home I’ve had. Understands me without having to think about how I say things. Can ask it for one or multiple things at the same time. Can even make it so that it pretends to be Santa Claus while responding. My wife was ecstatic when she heard the Ho-ho-ho while asking to turn the coffee machine on on Christmas.
- Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
I haven’t tried funnel but it works using an internal Talscale IP/host and port. E.g. the-immich-host:1234 if the-immich-host is a Tailscale machine.
- Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
Works outside. I’m setting a standard DNS record on a standard DNS provider to an internal TS IP. The record works everywhere but the IP is only accessible when TS is on. Whether I’m on the local net or outside.

Are you running out of RAM? Old servers in your area may help. :D
- Comment on systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success 1 week ago:
I had something similar when I used to mount an NFS share. I had a bash line that would loop ping and then mount once ping succeeds. Having a separate service that pings and making the mount dependent on it is probably the better thing to do. Should also work when put in
Requires=in a.mountfile. - Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
That’s one way to look at it. I used to look at paid VC-funded services like that. I no longer do as I’ve observed services I pad good money for get more expensive much faster than inflation and decrease in quality and features at the same time. It’s one reason I self-host many services I used to pay third parties for. I now look to alternatives from the get go and derisk existing dependencies. To be clear - profitability isn’t merely the only problem. The ownership and its profit growth strategy (and expecrations) are. Those are not the same in a decades old ISP and a VC-funded startup.

- you can create memorable links instead of memorizing port numbers:
jellyfin.foo-bar.ts.net
BTW, I’m doing something similar with standard DNS records that point to an internal Tailscale IP. I can go to immich.mydomain.com which only works if Tailscale is active. Let’s Encrypt works too.

Can you share what components are you using for SSO, UI, etc.?
- Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
Ownership, size and profit growth strategy. My ISP is a massively profitable regulated oligopoly. They aren’t providing a free service today that they’ll have to monetize down the line to compensate for the time operating on VC funding. Tailscale, awesome as it is today, is in my view guaranteed to enshittify over time as they start getting pressed to grow profit. That’s not too much of a problem for me since the clients I use are open source and there’s an alternative open source server. If I used features unavailable in Headscale or were in over my head and unable to self-host Headscale, I might be in a bad time some time down the line.
- Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
You’re talking about Headscale right?
- Comment on systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success 1 week ago:
Network not ready by time the mount is executed?
- Comment on systemd has been a complete, utter, unmitigated success 1 week ago:
On modern systems, fstab entries are read by systemd and .mount files are automatically created for each entry. 😄
- Comment on Tailscale Services GA: App-aware connectivity with more control 1 week ago:
While this is great, especially for smaller self-hosters, as a setup gets more and more dependent on Tailscale, one should think about self-hosting Headscale, and therefore not being over-reliant on services not offered by it. I’m in that boat and I haven’t done the Headscale migration yet.

some users reported that devices with malfunctioning or disconnected fingerprint sensors became stuck on the boot animation and could not complete startup.
Some context. Also this happened last year.
