  Well they said that it should be much, much faster now, so even if it would restart it should be done within a few hours now :)

  Do we have a cursed benchies community on Lemmy?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NAS / NAS + server? Unraid, Proxmox, Intel, AMD? Looking for guidance.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve gone the TrueNAS SCALE route myself, with TN running on bare metal. All my containers/apps are set up through it, and I’ve also spun up Windows and Linux VMs without major issues, including GPU and USB passthrough.

  I do enjoy the security it gives me, will all my apps being versioned/snapshotted regularly and before every update, as well as the rest of my data. Since TN is only using ZFS and not something like MergerFS (which I believe is used by Unraid), the upgrade path is a bit mote restricted. So you should definitely look into your options up-front. For example, you won’t be able to expand a vdev (virtual ZFS disk) later on, you’ll have to create a new one. And you can only use equivalent vdevs to form pools. That means if you start with 3 drives in a vdev for your main storage pool, you can only expand that pool by adding anothet 3 drives with the same capacity as a secons vdev. So make sure you can stomach these costs, or go for fewer and cheaper drives, with a large case.

  As for apps, you can set up docker apps easily, and there are a large number of officially or community-maintained apps, where any breaking changes and migrations are handled for you, so updating is a breeze. But you don’t have a much flexibility as with a custom setup. TN has been becoming more generic in that regard though, switching from k3s to regular docker, so you could probably play around with stuff via the CLI without major issues.

  Oh and one more thing: you should probably use a separate, dedicated device for Home Assistant. Use a Raspberry Pi or one of their official boards, and you’ll have better support, more features, redundancy, and can still create backups on your NAS via SMB.
  Such a second device that is also connected via Tailscale doesn’t hurt either, just in case.

  “IP” in this context would be “intellectual property”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Here is what 6 decommissioned servers looks like. My Jellyfin will be very happy⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I happen to be in France this summer :P

  But I should probably get my backup server set up before that…
  Hope you have fun with those drives!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a Google Timeline alternative with feature parity?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Home Assistant can record the position of a device tracker (e.g. a phone with GPS) and does reverse geocoding (coordinates to addresses). There’s also a “premises” attribute, but I’m not sure if that includes the types of places you’re looking for.
  Here’s some more info: companion.home-assistant.io/docs/core/sensors#geo…

  I’m not aware of a nice way to browse these locations though, but at least the data would be there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lidarr++Deemix - A service to automatically add albums from Deemix⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, nice! But now the question is: Does this work with Lidarr on Steroids, so that it can use deemix for both metadata and downloading? ^^

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Importing Google Photos Takeout to Immich⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Used immich-go for this too. Had no problems, and the dev is really open to feedback. All the metadata was there (except for labeled persons), and albums were also created correctly. It even inported archived photos into Immich’s archive!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with Nexcloud on truenas scale⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t need to use it as an exit node. But yes, running tailscale in a container can be problematic for accessing some apps. You should give this thread a read: github.com/truenas/charts/issues/2201

  It offers some explanations on what might be going on. I have tailscale set up on a different device (raspberry pi), and it’s working as a “subnet router”, meaning I can access all of my local subnet when I’m connected.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with Nexcloud on truenas scale⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  VPN, Tailscale Funnel or Cloudflare Tunnel? ZeroTier should also work.

  In what way does Jellyfin stop working? Does it not start at all?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with Nexcloud on truenas scale⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a bit confused by your question about Jellyfin in a Nextcloud post, but whatever xD

  There’s is no way to install a specific version of an app on Scale, you can only install the latest version. That applies to both the official charts as well as TrueCharts. You can however refuse to update to newer versions if you feel like it.
  Keep in mind that if you decide to update later on, you can only update to the current latest version again.

  Alternatively, you can set up the app “manually”, by going to “Discover apps” and then clicking the “Custom app” button. That allows you to use any docker image with any tag that you want. I’ve used it to set up an unstable/beta version of Jellyfin, and some more test servers.

  I think there’s also a docker-compose app for TrueCharts that lets you point to a compose test file using host path, but that is not needed for Jellyfin.

  Let me know if you have more questions!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to add text to the bottom of prints and the quality is inconsistent⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The issue is probably that the text is on the bottom, as others have also pointed out. Take a look at this video, it explains your options pretty well: youtu.be/TH82TSjI67I

  They want to make things stable this year, but probably not that soon

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Immich now has Gallery Watcher!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s really awesome! I’ll hold off from trying this for one or two updates, hopefully by then Immich will automatically create albums based on the folder structure as well.
  And some solid library sharing feature would also go a long way towards sharing (old) family photos with the whole family!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨recommendations for selfhosted photo backup solution: folders vs albums?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Immich actually organizes your photos in a simple directory structure, which is customizable (want to group by year? year+month? by day? not at all?). The images are right there in your file system and have the original file name.
  The directory is “read-only” though, for the same reason as there is a need to import existing libraries: database synchronization.
  Immich offers many features that require a database or pre-processing of files, which makes it fast and feature-rich. If you modify files outside of Immich, it cannot know what changed and loses track of where your media is.

  As I said, the (read-only) file structure is always there in case you want to switch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self Hosted Parrot.AI or Otter.AI Alternatives⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah okay, wouldn’t have thought that it would be reliable enought to pull this off.

  In that case, you might want to look at some kind of knowledge base AI, like danswer. There others, which might be better suited, but I can’t seem to find them right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reiverr: A clean UI for Jellyfin, TMDB, Sonarr and Radarr, as well as a replacement to Overseerr⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is sonarr/radarr a hard requirement? Would be interested in just using this as an alternative frontend for jellyfin

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self Hosted Parrot.AI or Otter.AI Alternatives⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Didn’t know something like this existed at all! (so no idea of there are alternatives)

  I’m super curious about your experiences and use case though! Care to share some insights?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is a fractured mess and easily the worst of the series⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  While I actually like the stakes to become lower again (we can’t keep increasing the stakes forever), I agree that the movie wasn’t what I was hoping for. The origin story stuff and cohesion of the group was nice, but the High Evolutionary was really odd overall.
