- Comment on What is your self hosted power draw? 1 day ago:
I can trip the measly 15 amp breaker by drawing 1.5kW on two servers + turning on an amplifier that is somehow on the same circuit despite being in a different room quite far from where my servers are lol.
On average though I only draw like 350W. The huge spike only happens if I run a miner/llm on both of my servers or the during the startup spike.
The 1kW chunk comes from some RTX Quadro 6000S which each eat 250W each when maxxed out.

“You can change the logo bruh”

I read the OP which is why I asked the question, not the entire thread just to figure out that you don’t want to use containers.

What about podman quadlets?
Dunno about immich, but photoprism also has a bunch of CUDA libs that would otherwise be a pain to maintain specific version sets on the host.
- Comment on please recommend a simple selfhosted photo gallery 3 weeks ago:
I don’t want to run a separate database or anything complex, so things like Immich or Photoprism are not an option.
Why not just use podman and let it handle itself? Unless you’re planning on hosting like maybe several million photos, I doubt you would ever need to manually set up a DB.
Just download the compose file, add your photo directory paths to it, and let it start and never think about it again until you feel like updating for some new feature months later.
- Comment on Email for self hosted services? (Not personal email) 3 weeks ago:
If its internal network traffic only, you can just use stalwart and add the DNS records to your network so that stuff can use SMTP.
Otherwise, (also with stalwart or your preferred software), you will want to use an SMTP relay so that outgoing messages will be delivered without the hassle of getting your domain reputational enough for sent messages not getting junked by the big email providers.
I’m extra lazy and haven’t set this up, so I just have a public mail server that only receives messages because my outgoing SMTP port is blocked by my ISP.
- Comment on Internet centralization and the original sin of NAT 1 month ago:
Saw the title and I already knew IPv6 was still gonna be “not enough adoption” lol.
The overly aggressive lockdown from NAT is not entirely misplaced though. Windows is already notorious for default hosting an atrocious level of protocols that are anywhere between “I can get your NetNTLMv2 hash for free” to “gg ez RCE as SYSTEM user”.
Linux and Unix were also not magically protected either, like every FTP server implementation has had several RCE vulns and it was so bad that Linus himself pointed out how easy it was to abuse buffer overflow vulns even after the addition of NX mem protection with return to libc, several years before ASLR finally landed in Linux and Windows.
Seriously, the early 2000s was the wild west of vulns because everything was still written in C++ so you could just waltz into any binary, find some stack/heap overflow, and you’re on your way to an RCE.
NAT (and firewall) most definitely did prevent millions of users from getting rekt by a metric ton of malware that operated on the ability to connect to those services.
- Comment on I'm down with this 1 month ago:
RCEs, RCEs everywhere
But I mean at least everything has a small memory footprint instead of using 4Gb to load a god damn web page.

Thst branding reminds me of the extensive complaints of Anubis beeing too weaboo for production applications lol.
- Comment on Valve must address swastikas and other hate on Steam, writes US senator in a letter to Gabe Newell 1 year ago:
Is this even a real problem on steam or something some random dude wrote to his senator about?
My biggest issue was valve being slow to vac ban people bragging about cheating, which was almost exlcusive to TF2.
Seen way worse on reddit than steam for “hate” content.
