- Comment on Post your Servernames! 1 month ago:
Only two I’ve thought through naming are
Roshar - Unraid server where 90% of apps/services live.
Cobalt Guard - Ubiquiti UDMPro
Maybe Knight Radiant or a character who is one, or even one of the orders would have fit better for protecting roshar but I like how cobalt guard sounds for a FW
- Comment on what will be my next server operating system (Fedora Server, Fedora CoreOS, NixOS), your experience and opinion 2 months ago:
I have not used Fedora server yet but like their desktop is. Currently my two VMs in unraid are Rocky Linux. Been using centos and now Rocky for the last 5-6 years and haven’t had any complaints
- Comment on Microsoft won't update your Windows 11 PC if it has these apps 2 months ago:
I just tried in February but could be because of the protocol either Wayland or X11, I run 2 1440p 144hz monitors and I think Wayland struggles with that. Have had better luck with arch and KDE x11
- Comment on Microsoft won't update your Windows 11 PC if it has these apps 2 months ago:
I’m going AMD next as well, pop wouldn’t run games on my 3080, finally got some running on endeavourOS currently but pop and fedora had lots of issues.
- Comment on Roku explores taking over HDMI feeds with ads 2 months ago:
Can that easily stream HDR and things like Dolby vision? In research a while ago I thought it was only certain CPUs/GPUs and chrome could play things like Netflix at 4k/HDR

I’ve had one realm with 5 clients and nothing crazy setup running for about 3 years across 3 major versions and haven’t had many problems

They do have a doc for this. immich.app/docs/…/backup-and-restore/
I dump my immich db weekly and every 2 weeks sync the media folders to a remote destination

- Comment on What's Your Preferred Server Monitoring Method? 4 months ago:
Grafana, fronting information from Prometheus, Loki and Telegraf/influxdb since I’m used to that from work and has been a bit more set and forget compared to node_exporter. Easier to add in plugins as well instead of a new container/service to scrape.
- Comment on Best TV box for connecting to streaming services? 4 months ago:
I have rokus and use a pihole plus NAT routing rules to force them to not use hard coded DNS so they can’t reach their APIs and most ad domains and while not perfect I don’t see many ads. Maybe the odd poster scrolling around to get to Plex or Netflix
- Comment on Vizio settles for $3M after saying 60 Hz TVs had 120 Hz “effective refresh rate” | Vizio claimed backlight scanning made refresh rates seem twice as high. 5 months ago:
I have had it on for a few hours at times and by looking like crap I would say it ruins the experience for me because it makes every scene and action look like a soap opera or a YouTube video and doesn’t feel like a film anymore and doesn’t carry the same weight. That’s just my opinion obviously. Could see certain scenes and movies working well with that but most I don’t want to feel like I’m on the set of a soap opera.

They have some snuck in there, I am still rocking a M55 from 2017 and with a lot of calibrating I don’t see too much difference in 4K HDR to new under 1k TCLs and cheaper samsungs. Though next year I want an LG OLED.
- Comment on This Week in Self-Hosted (22 December 2023) 6 months ago:
Anything that is actually helpful and useful helps to keep better in touch with aunts and cousins and my parents who all have iPhones and I miss out on group chats since they wont install or use anything else. Apple isn’t going to get rid of their garden unless forced so I’m glad someone is trying something.
- Comment on Any recommendations for monitoring my servers? 6 months ago:
My work environments use Prometheus and node-exporter and grafana. At home I use telegraf, influxdb and grafana (and Prometheus for other app specific metrics) but the biggest reason I went with telegraf and influxdb at home is because Prometheus scrapes data from the configured clients (pull), while telegraf sends the data on the configured interval to influxdb and starting my homelab adventure I had 2 VMS in the cloud and 2 pis at home and having telegraf sending the data in to my pis rather than going out and scraping made it a lot easier for that remote setup. I had influxdb setup behind a reverse proxy and auth so telegraf was sending data over TLS and needed to authenticate. That is the major difference to me, but there are also subsets of other exporters and plugins and stuff to tailor data for each one depending on what you want.

I’ve played it takes two with my partner and kinda got a little complicated around and after the first boss, definitely gonna give KeyWe a shot! Work our way up to it takes two again
- Comment on Plex Users Fear New Feature Will Leak Porn Habits to Their Friends and Family 6 months ago:
I got a popup 2 or 3 weeks ago asking what I wanted to share for this and I unchecked everything. Now am curious and will have to go in and verify. Also no email about my week in review or whatever.
- Comment on Is anyone selfhosting kavita? 7 months ago:
I selfhost kavita for about 30 ebooks and use KavitaEmail to send epubs to my kindle. I also tried out audiobookshelf only for podcasts and wasn’t quite up to my current workflow that antennapod running only on my phone exceeds at. I also recently saw audiobookshelf can host epubs and send them via SMTP via one container so once the android app for the latter comes out of beta and has better local file and androidauto support I may give that a shot again.
- Comment on Is anyone selfhosting kavita? 7 months ago:
I use kavita and tried audiobookshelf a bit after and all kavita requires is a specific folder of “Last, First” for authors and can toss any jpgs or epubs in those folders and that’s how I have mine structured. I didn’t have any structure setup before so adopting this one made sense to me.
- Comment on Steam Deck OLED is now available 7 months ago:
I was able to grab a limited edition one almost 2 hours after release time. Was clicking through carts dozens of times and purchase pages about 5 times, what a mess.
- Comment on The Hidden Costs of Long Playtimes in Modern Gaming 7 months ago:
What’s the timeframe within that I am curious. I am not the type of person to spend 100 hours playing a game though I regularly see that online and on my friends list, for example I spent 19 hours playing Metro Exodus recently, 28 hours on God of War and 34 on horizon zero dawn. I feel like that is around the amount of time I want to spend on those games and would feel like 10 hours to complete the story and most objectives is too short.
- Comment on tailscale vs cloudflare tunnel? which is better a homelab 7 months ago:
I appreciate the thoughtful reply but my issue with their explanation is not in the concepts or how it operates but in the fact they stated that Cloudflare tunnels were not an option to choose despite proving they have no knowledge in how they are used or operate.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 7 months ago:
I have never owned a PlayStation but played GoW on PC last year and enjoyed every minute of it. It ran great and was a great story and combat system. I can’t wait for ragnarok to come to PC.
- Comment on tailscale vs cloudflare tunnel? which is better a homelab 7 months ago:
Got any info on how cloudflare MITM and decrypts all traffic but tailscale doesn’t? Playing devils advocate and pointing out how not much you’re saying is making sense.
- Comment on tailscale vs cloudflare tunnel? which is better a homelab 7 months ago:
Just my two cents I’d prefer my traffic going through Cloudflare vs Tailscale if it’s all the same, since I’ve heard a lot about Tailscale but know nothing. I’ve interacted on Github threads with people from cloudflare and they’re all super nice and their blog posts and post-mortems are very insightful. Was curious to see if people had actual insight but appears it’s just auto cloudflare = bad.
- Comment on tailscale vs cloudflare tunnel? which is better a homelab 7 months ago:
Is there a specific reason tailscale having all the same traffic opposed to cloudflare is a better option? I use cloudflare tunnels right now and figured them handling some of the data is better than me by myself.
- Comment on Addressing Changes to pfSense Plus Home+Lab 8 months ago:
Until now my SG3100 experience hasn’t been bad at all. I’ve been using it since like 2018 and don’t have much to complain about thankfully.
- Comment on Addressing Changes to pfSense Plus Home+Lab 8 months ago:
This could potentially apply to me as I have a SG3100 that’d now EOL with no direct replacement, I was thinking of getting a non netgate appliance but restoring my PFSense plus to that new device, this now means I’d be forced to get a subscription to TaC to use Plus on a non netgate device? Wording isn’t very clear to me.
- Comment on Bitwarden and Nginx proxy manager 8 months ago:
Their script has places you can specify a certificate in the main config file inside your bitwarden data folder. Probably no need to use another container to accomplish the thing. For example in the config I disabled SSL and have my FW as the reverse proxy going to nginx:80.
