  Aaah, ok. I read the docs at librewolf.net/installation/macos/#homebrew but got scared when I saw “flagged as broken”. I’ll give it a shot anyway, thanks!

  I never thought to read “floorp” as “floor” + “pee”, but now I can’t unsee that.

  Has anyone figured out how to automate updates on macOS (ew I know, but it’s my wife’s computer)?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Aaah, ok. I think I’m slowly starting to get it. Also, this video helped: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3k_MwE0Z3CE

  So… Seerr requests something (what? how?) to torrent stuff on your behalf?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to manage docker compose apps?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My breakage happened a while ago, so I don’t quite remember all of the details…

  but what I think happened was I updated /etc/immich/.env. I updated the path for DB_DATA_LOCATION and/or UPLOAD_LOCATION and then I ran docker compose up -d I think. But nothing changed…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to manage docker compose apps?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What commands do you have to run after you update docker-compose.yml or .env files? I updated one of those files once bad things happened… I haven’t had to update the configs in a long time.

  I recently learned that Charlie Sheen’s birth name is Carlos Irwin Estévez.

  I have my own server and it’s great, but the real product these streaming services sell isn’t access to content—it’s discoverability and recommendations. We need a better solution for that!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2025 Self-Host User Survey: Open for Submissions⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it depends on what “orchestration” means to you… 🤔

  en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orchestration_(computing)

  In system administration, orchestration is the automated configuration, coordination, deployment, development, and management of computer systems and software.

  Docker compose pretty much seems to check every one of these boxes.

  I put yes. Then it asks what platform you use and I clicked “Docker”.

  If a service falls in a server and no one is around to hear it, does it actually matter?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Security camera recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  frigate

  I’m learning more about Frigate, seems cool. Are you able to get notifications to your phone with Frigate? Actually, is there a mobile app at all? Do you need to run Home Assistant to get notifications from Frigate or can Frigate provide notifications by itself?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Security camera recommendations?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh! Interesting! The maintainer doesn’t have Reolink in their recommendations. (Although… the affiliate link stuff kinda muddies the water…)

  I recommend Dahua, Hikvision, and Amcrest in that order.

  Here are some of the cameras I recommend:

  • Loryta(Dahua) IPC-T549M-ALED-S3 (affiliate link)
  • Loryta(Dahua) IPC-T54IR-AS (affiliate link)
  • Amcrest IP5M-T1179EW-AI-V3 (affiliate link)
  • HIKVISION DS-2CD2387G2P-LSU/SL ColorVu 8MP Panoramic Turret IP Camera (affiliate link)

  There is a suggested Reolink setup mentioned though: docs.frigate.video/…/camera_specific/#reolink-cam…

  Reolink has many different camera models with inconsistently supported features and behavior.

  How original and innovative. It’s like these guys are doing something no other company is trying…

  I look forward to nobody buying their AI slop.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How about “Thieves steal computers”?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What are they gonna do with that?

  Steal it.

  Who is gonna buy that from them?

  People on eBay who buy used computer parts, like me.

  What can they buy with that?

  Money can buy many peanuts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Thankfully, I don’t think there’s ever been a flood where I live. House burning down is way more likely. But, break-ins do happen in my town. Actually, what prompted me to think about this was that my neighbor recently had their house broken into.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Backup and encryption

  Yeah, I guess this is the solution. Encryption I get. But where do you backup to? I currently have about 4TB of data and was thinking of at least doubling capacity soon. How expensive is it to backup 8TB of data somewhere?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it’s a unique situation for everyone. My TV is huge, heavy, and requires at least 2 people (I used 3 people) to carefully move it out. Laptops are easy and fast to take. I don’t think one would stop there though. I don’t have gold n cash laying around like some other Lemmy users here, lol.

  I’m not sure if I have anything else that’s valuable. No tablets. Not much tools. Uh. What else do people have that is sellable?

  My home server is a smallish ITX box. I could see some idiot thinking computers -> gaming -> expensive -> money.

  I mean… I’ve been selling and buying used computer equipment on eBay for way more than $20…
