- Comment on Home surveillance set up 4 days ago:
I have Frigate running with a reverse proxy, a coral, etc. I just use the internal Intel GPU on my CPU and it works with a 1080p and a not-quite-4k stream (4MP maybe?). It’s no sweat for the hardware.
GPU is only used to detect motion, and you can even configure a lower resolution sub-stream from your cameras to reduce that load, but I don’t think you’ll need to.
Once motion is detected, Frigate fires up the coral to determine what is there. A car, dog, person, etc.
I have everything get recorded with no processing to a single WD Purple, the biggest I could afford. It holds months of video before rewriting over old stuff.
Hope that helps.

Sounds good to me.

I can only speculate, but PieFed seems great for a community like blahaj. It makes it super easy root out disrespectful users.
- Comment on Migrating communities in the wake of the lemm.ee shutdown 3 weeks ago:
One that stands out to me are the optional notes above the comment box for each community.
On piefed.social I’ve used this to put a note on every beehaw.org community about the ‘good vibes only’ nature of that instance and one community on lemmy.ml has a note about the unusual mostly-unwritten moderation policies employed there.
I like this idea, because it would serve as a last second warning to me(and others) that I might be at risk of participating with tankies.

I’ve certainly seen some toxic .ee users which jives with your theory.
- Comment on Self-hosting is having a moment. Ethan Sholly knows why. 5 weeks ago:
I use apps on my phone, but have no clue how to troubleshoot them. I have programs on my computer that I hardly know how to use, let alone know the inner workings of. How is running things in Docker any different? Why put down people who have an interest in running things themselves?
I know you’re just trying to answer the above question of “why do it the hard way”, but it struck me as a little condescending. Sorry if I’m reading too much into it!
- Comment on How to reverse proxy? 5 weeks ago:
To access things outside of your LAN (for example from your phone while at the grocery store), each service gets a DuckDNS entry. “service.myduckdns.com” or whatever.
Your phone will look for service.myduckdns.com on port 443, because you’ll have https:// certificates and that all happens on port 443.
When that request eventually gets to your router and is trying to penetrate your firewall, you’ll need 443 open and forwarded to your Debian machine.
So yes, you have it right.
Also forward port 80.
- Comment on How to reverse proxy? 5 weeks ago:
That question is a little bit out of the scope of a forum like this. A question like that would better be answered by the nginx documentation. Sometimes the project documentation might have a blurb about nginx configuration specific for that project. For example, Immich.
For the most part, you only have to reference the nginx documentation. I’ve never looked at the Immich config above until now, and my Immich server works great.
I’ve had a reverse proxy for years, but the config files are very foreign to me because I use Nginx-Proxy-Manager. NPM makes nginx usable for dummies like me, at the expense of gaining a deeper understanding of how it works. I’m ok with that, but you might feel differently.

This photo is taken out of context, though. I mean, he slapped his chest before the salute, and he did it twice in a row… Ah shit nevermind, he’s a Nazi.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Nope. If it was something that I’d need to refer to later I might go the photo route, but since it’s all temporary reference I just toss it in the trash.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I do for my job, where I need to quickly jot down important information. The info I jot down is temporary in nature, and after a particular “job” (I might have a few jobs in a day), the info is useless.
Paper and pen is great because it’s fast, custom, doesn’t take up screen space, and you don’t have to click buttons to throw it away.
- Comment on Is there any community for Linux for noobs ? 1 month ago:
It’s run by the main developers of Lemmy, and they’re both authoritarian communists (which I just got from Wikipedia as I’m trying not to use the pejoritve “tankie”).
Anything that could be perceived as speaking down towards Russia, China, maybe even North Korea, end up with your comment getting deleted and your account banned for a period of time.
They started Lemmy because @dessalines got banned from Reddit. The backwards thinking is that people shouldn’t be banned for speaking their minds, yet their instance is the absolute worst for that.
By avoiding .ml you are helping Lemmy be what it should be – a decentralized, user owned, user moderated place with sensible decisions behind the scenes.

!linux@lemmy.world and !linux@programming.dev have my support since I boycott .ml whenever possible.

I just discovered (thanks to this site) that you can click the uBlock Origin icon, then “enter element zapper mode” (the lightning bolt). It just gets rid of whatever you want to disappear.
- Comment on Toilet seat detects atrial fibrillation 2 months ago:
I wonder if it started as a joke.
“Where can you force people to sit still for long enough to detect an afib?”
“The toilet!”
- Comment on Toilet seat detects atrial fibrillation 2 months ago:
uBlock Origin, to be specific. I don’t know if it’s still a thing, but uBlock used to be not good in comparison to uBlock Origin.

I’m a fan of Dockge. Nice simplicity, easy to update container stacks, etc. etc.
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday - What's up? 2 months ago:
It looks like the hEX refresh is the same price from that vendor.
RB5009 is better but more expensive. There’s a PoE version that can power your WiFi APs in the future.
I also question the decision to put OpenWrt on it. RouterOS is solid. There’s a learning curve, but it’s worth it if you’re a nerd.

- Comment on wanderer v0.15.1 - 3 months ago:
I finally figured out how to get the terrain stuff going on my Wanderer. Super cool!
Now I’m trying to figure out my future workflow… can you shed some light on it?
Currently everything I upload is its own “Trail”. This goes for the Strava integration, as well as me just uploading a GPS track.
Trails are nice because they all show up on the Map, making a cool overview of everything I’ve done. Obviously over time this might bog down the system when viewing the map.
Trails aren’t included in the statistics, which is a bummer.
So, I played around with moving each of my activities into broader “trails”, based on where the activity took place. I think that’s probably how Wanderer is supposed to be used, because when I move activities from being a “Trail” to being a “Summit”, they are counted in the statistics.
The only downside to that is they don’t appear on the map, unless you click the specific Summit.
So, basically, my question is – should I just accept the fact that I should move everything into being a Summit, so I can enjoy the statistics?
Thanks!
