- Comment on Mounting S3 as a filesystem in your VPS for unlimited cheap storage 3 days ago:
Yeah. I would keep the db local, and probably the thumbs and intermediary photos too. But the full resolution would probably be in S3.
dB’s are not good on object store, and not good running over the internet. I wish they had native S3 storage, as that would allow for high speed access, where as this will download to the server, then upload to the client which will add latency.
Cheers

This is self hosted dammit! But awesome writeup!

Is that your article ?
I am in a bit of a funny position, I am volunteering in an underdeveloped country, and have my immich instance running at my in-laws. But I don’t have access to my NAS. Backblaze would be ideal!
What have you done to run it there? Is it as easy as mounting juicefs, and pointing immich dirs there?
I have about 700gb that would have to be migrated, any ideas on that? Or would it be relatively transparent to immich just copy and pasting?

- Comment on Service to store and share WiFi credentials 2 months ago:
I have got recording ssid’s when I connect, but not the password.
It also doesn’t check whether it exists in the list, not sure how to do that yet. I think I need pro to use lists and dictionaries
- Comment on Is Radicale the way forward? 2 months ago:
i have just started running radicale a lot more for calendars and contacts. then use betterbird for the client on my laptop and other android apps.
the problem is that there is no web-ui. otherwise, relatively solid and lightweight server so far.

Can you share your macro’s?
- Comment on Service to store and share WiFi credentials 2 months ago:
oh that is cool. thanks!
Any ideas on which would be a better automate tool? i have not used either.

- Comment on Why is replacement for home device controls so complicated? 2 months ago:
Depending. But yes. A lot of the time they go the long way around, and head out to some server and back to your local network.
If the internet is down, or the vendor shits off the server, the device stops working.
Home assistant is attempting to localise everything, and get different vendors devices to work together.
Note, for your hass install, it can be installed on any server. Though I am using the green device

- Comment on Daylight saving has 80% support in Australia and a majority in every state 2 months ago:
I’ve never seen the point if it. Perth doesn’t seem to need it
- Comment on Daylight saving has 80% support in Australia and a majority in every state 2 months ago:
I doubt the numbers. They are significant, and I expect that within my friends and family, I would have a number that support it.
However, I don’t. As a result, I doubt the accuracy of the figures as a representation of the whole. I think it said 1100 respondents ?
Not to many to represent the state.
Also, a referendum to the contrary also helps, but it was a while ago

- Comment on Offshoring my solutions 4 months ago:
All my hardware needs to move. And I cannot take it with me, but I want to keep my core stuff available. Looking at what people think are some good options.
I expect it will be to a mates house with taolscale or similar in front.
- Comment on Offshoring my solutions 4 months ago:
Are any of your services public facing?
Yes. i think that is like a “bastion” server, or something like that. good idea. I expect that i can get more-or-less free VPS, and just run the NPM and tailscale or something there.I would not run any of the *arrs on a network that is not yours
Good thought, i dont think i would need it whilst i am away anyway.And definitely make sure your friend knows
yep, responsible hosting :Dthanks for the thoughts.

- Comment on ’Magic balls’ installed by drones may soon be revolutionizing the US power grid: 'Unrivaled quality at scale' 5 months ago:
I have seen these balls on power lines in Western Australia for decades, and literally only just found out what they were.
They are used (maybe among other things) to understand exactly where a fault has occurred in a mlln outage.
They give you sensor data between substations, and allow the grid operator to better isolate the fault and restore power to the largest possible area, without reenergising the fault.
They use parasitic power transfer to be totally disconnected from any dedicated power supply.
Very cool
- Comment on App that tracks prices on websites? 5 months ago:
There is a Firefox adding that can load a page amd extract a div, and track it over time. But the browser needs to be open. I will get the name of it in 10.
I used it to track the price of an item, looking for a sale.

- Comment on Immich is awesome 6 months ago:
yeah the simple workflow of the app -> immich server makes it seamless. i think that is the magic part of immich, the barrier to entry for getting your photos in (and the WAF) is key.
