  Did a little digging, not sure if you’re someone who self hosts but Homebridge appears to offer a plugin for Xiaomi smart vacuums this may give you more functionality with the cost of exposing it to the internet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man Alarmed to Discover His Smart Vacuum Was Broadcasting a Secret Map of His House⁩ ⁨⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m unfamiliar with Xiaomi “smart” products, I assume there is an app to control the vacuum, if it does have an app does it still work for you strictly behind your LAN network?

  usually, upper management go for their hour and a half long launches and come back blitzed.

  Baffling that “smart” products don’t just utilize the local network for their functionality.

  There are many ways, a popular choice would be managing your own recursive DNS resolver and then blocking the endpoint it contacts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the best chat to self host?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t cover Traefik, plus the docker-compose.yml contains 4 separate images and researching into them didn’t provide much info. snicket_proxy, snikket_certs, snikket_portal and snikket_server. All four of these images bind to the host and if I am supplying my own reverse proxy then both snikket_proxy and snikket_certs are redundant right? Or do they serve another purpose? And if I wanted to take them off the host network, follow their firewall guide and expose the necessary ports manually behind a docker bridge network what images to I bind those ports to? When I tried binding them all to snikket_server that’s when my docker service crashed and I gave up.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the best chat to self host?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Snikket locked my docker service up, their documentation sucks for when you want to use your own reverse proxy or bind it behind a docker network and not the host.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you can make your own like I did I would highly recommend it.

  Honestly I could, metal fabrication comes in handy, get it shop issued and laser or water cut send it through the machinists, I would have to supply the material myself which would be difficult but certainly doable.

  I’ll have to consider this! By chance do you have drawings are dimensions of your rack as a starting point? Completely understandable if you rather not share.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Was eyeing a 52Pi rack for a good little while this post inspired me to get ones, but then I saw the shipping cost.

  So glad I ditched discord the second they considered going public, converting people to Matrix sucks because Element is terrible for group calls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Readarr alternative suggestions?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Apparently the folks from the rreading-glasses accuse Chaptarr of being vibe coded can find it directly in their README.

  For the unaware rreading-glasses is a rebuilt metadata server for Readarr.

  If it connects to the internet, you can change the DNS to whatever you want it to be. If Tim over at Apple had his way I’m sure he’d force his ‘i’ devices to use a “secure Apple DNS” server.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Xbox consoles are now getting a fullscreen Xbox Game Pass Ultimate ad at boot, just a day after a 50% price hike was announced⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Depends on the host name, I’m sure there is a PiHole blocklist out in the wild but likely only targets telemetry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Old games with high GPU requirements (and look great)⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  PSA Se7enSins has helped me find some really obscure and cool mods in the past, they’ve been around for decades. Worth keeping an eye on relevant forums.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone here is telling you to ditch Arch for Debian, I absolutely agree with them however, if you’re so hell bent on having an Arch server than install Proxmox VE to the host and run both Debian and Arch, getting it working in Debian first then try to replicate it with Arch, compare the differences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you secure your home lab? Like, physically? From thieves?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This gave me a chuckle, my server is about 4’ away from my cabinet, pretty sure the thief is prioritizing in that situation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Suggestions to have a home server VPN and and Mullvad at the same time?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a bit confused on this comment here:

  Additionally, I’d prefer not to not do something like: Computer -> Home VPN -> Mullvad server -> destination, as my upload speed is pretty bad and this would throttle every non-local connection

  Because you also mention this:

  
  Which is would be the same thing, no? You’re just making a connection to the Mullvad server first then your home network? 
  
  ___
  
  I’ll share my experience but it looks like it’s not the solution you’re looking for, I opted to use my Asus WRT Router w/ [Merlin Firmware](https://www.asuswrt-merlin.net/) to host my VPN server, the Merlin Firmware lets me connect to 5 different VPN clients at a time, I use the “VPN Director” feature to route my VPN Server through one of the 5 different clients effectively creating the multi-hop.
  
  I personally haven’t noticed much degradation in regard to connection speeds but at the same time I don’t constantly hop VPN clients, I typically stick with the server closest to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft still can't convince folks to upgrade to Windows 11⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ll likely need to purge your Nvidia drivers after upgrading to 13, I had two machines fail to start NvidiaPersistence.d.service (or something like that) which caused the machines to fail on boot-up.

  Reinstalled the drivers with sudo apt install nvidia-driver nvidia-cuda-dev nvidia-cuda-toolkit if you’re looking for raytracing don’t forget to install libnvoptix1.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bruh, i just realised that the last time i played Garrys Mod,Obama was still president lmao⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Garry’s Mod was fun, now the only servers that have people in them got ridiculous rulesets and the constant begging for donations & locking superior weapons behind a paywall gets old real quick.

  Not hard to spin up a docker container for a Garry’s mod server, these server hosters are taking their position for granted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the current state of Matrix?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As the end use my biggest gripe with Matrix is with voice communications, it’s almost as if you sneeze wrong you’ll lose connection to the voice group, screen sharing is horrible, no audio and the window is not adjustable, cant even make it full screen.

  Now they’re reducing people’s usage by putting in a subscription and locking certain features, at least on the home server.

  Disappointed nonetheless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the first electronic device kids get these days? (Desktop, Laptop, Tablet, Phone, Game consoles?)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Respectfully I disagree with your view, get a device suited for them, install relevant software & apps that work locally, enable parental permissions or some other policy manager and disable internet access out right.

  Ease off that restriction as they age, use a DNS sinkhole to prevent access to certain sites.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone use a VPN to subvert the Netflix household device fencing?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  if you use the Netflix application chances are they’ll detect the virtual network on your system and if it’s in use, most people don’t seem to realize that applications have direct access to your hardware unless it’s containerized or virtualized.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone use a VPN to subvert the Netflix household device fencing?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  EDIT: We get it, you like torrenting. Let’s keep comments on topic folks.

  To be fair, you posted in the self-hosted community discussing an Issue for proprietary software.

  I’m not too heavy into gears of war lore but I would assume the Retro Lancer, which has a bayonet in lieu of a chainsaw and was introduced in Gears of War 3, was the precursor to the modern lancer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just that⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Should put a note on your blog that Lidarr’s Metadata database is being rebuilt, currently the Lidarr APi spits a bunch of 5xx errors when searching for artists/albums/etc.

  github.com/Lidarr/Lidarr/issues/5498

  Help the Lidarr team rebuild the Database by running this application:

  github.com/DeviantEng/lidarr-cache-warmer

  It’ll search every artist in your library so that the new database has a cache to quickly call upon.

  gaccess.org covers all types of logging as far as I know, I mainly use it for access logs from my reverse proxy.
