- Comment on xkcd #2930: Google Solar Cycle 1 week ago:
I heard some years ago that google trends can be used to track illnesses like flu.
- Comment on Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location 2 weeks ago:
That’s exactly what the nextcloud desktop app does.
- Comment on Rabbit R1 AI box revealed to just be an Android app 2 weeks ago:
What I don’t get is why anyone would like to buy a new gadget for some AI features. Just develop a nice app and let people run it on their phones.
- Comment on Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location 2 weeks ago:
TBH, the description in the original post is not very clear.
- Comment on Using Nextcloud as a directory/folder/remote location 2 weeks ago:
Have you tried the official Nextcloud desktop app?
- Comment on Why is replacement for home device controls so complicated? 3 weeks ago:
Many “smart” devices are sold with the idea that you can control your home from somewhere else. Maybe change the temperature on your way home or get notified when someone rings your doorbell. All this stuff requires servers to work.
Controlling some lightbulbs via bluetooth/wifi would be possible of course, but probably not very interesting for many.
- Comment on [What If?] What if everyone jumped at once? 4 weeks ago:
Thomas asked what would happen if everyone would jump, not how humanity would go on if all mankind is teleported to Rhode island. Still a funny video.
- Comment on [What If?] What if everyone jumped at once? 4 weeks ago:
Now that was really a great answer to a question nobody asked.
- Comment on xkcd: Machine 1 month ago:
Same for me. I was wondering if there is another difficulty or so
- Comment on get infamous, yeah! 1 month ago:
Yes, and additionally they look like human fingers
- Comment on get infamous, yeah! 1 month ago:
The feet look extremely creepy.
- Comment on Can a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB of RAM handle my needs? 1 month ago:
True, they are much cheaper on aliexpress than on our local suppliers.
- Comment on Can a Raspberry Pi 5 with 8 GB of RAM handle my needs? 1 month ago:
I think he meant something like these mainboards (german comparison portal). These mainboards contain the CPU.
However, you also need memory, a case, storage and a power supply, which brings you closer to 200€.
- Comment on How to auto-reboot if CPU load too high? 2 months ago:
Just as a side note, the load factor can also mean that processes are limited by IO:
Unix systems traditionally just counted processes waiting for the CPU, but Linux also counts processes waiting for other resources – for example, processes waiting to read from or write to the disk.
- Comment on Intel’s 6.2 GHz Core i9-14900KS is a reminder of why the MHz wars ended 2 months ago:
As expected, the Core i9-14900KS only shows marginal gains over the vanilla 14900K, with a 3.8% lead in single-threaded work and a 1.5% lead in multi-threaded work.
And all this with more than 25% TDP increase. That’s insane.
- Comment on Reddit: Return Of The Junk Stock IPO 2 months ago:
But you should also take into consideration that this article did not get a huge attention. It is almost a week old and has a few thousand viewers.
- Comment on Fully working 270€ Nest Dropcam will no longer be supported. 2 months ago:
True. And communication was also not ideal.
- Comment on Fully working 270€ Nest Dropcam will no longer be supported. 2 months ago:
This reminds me of how Google handled the stadia shutdown. Now many controllers have got a second life thanks to the option to enable bluetooth.
- Comment on What's wrong with Nextcloud, and why is it slow/clunky? 2 months ago:
I think the file server analogy isn’t really fair. Nextcloud is better compared to Microsoft 365 or Google GSuite.
All of these offer file storage, but also much more.

The kids ruin the whole garden, and that’s when the lawn care company comes into play.
- Comment on What you can recommend for first time? 2 months ago:
Vaultwarden could be a good start. Everyone needs a good password manager, and setting up one at home is pretty easy.
You don’t even need to expose it to the internet, you can start with a local installation (with some limitations).
- Comment on Opinionated collection of docker-compose.yml 2 months ago:
true, and caddy works very well with docker compose setups.
- Comment on Opinionated collection of docker-compose.yml 2 months ago:
Setting up a reverse proxy with nginx proxy manager is pretty simple and comes with letsencrypt support.
For letsencrypt to work, a software needs to write a confirmation code to a special path in your domain. When letsencrypt verifies that you can write to this path (and therefore control the domain), you get the certificate.

Not more than six, at least if you use a standard dice.
- Comment on Docker Container Status Displays on Public Website 3 months ago:
I’m using Uptime Kuma myself can’t recommend it enough for simple use cases like this!
- Comment on What should I use my RPi4 3 months ago:
It has some amazing caching, but that doesn’t mean a backup is not necessary or recommended.

- Comment on This Week in Self-Hosted (12 January 2024) 4 months ago:
Just tried it out, I don’t see a reason why it would not work. Sure, some things don’t apply to bicycles (fuel, taxes), but things like repairs, maintenance and reminders could be nice for you.
- Comment on This Week in Self-Hosted (12 January 2024) 4 months ago:
I have not tried it out yet. But my current car tracker works fine with an electric bike.
- Comment on This Week in Self-Hosted (12 January 2024) 4 months ago:
Thanks to your post, I just found lubelog. Has anyone tried it out? I’m really not happy with my current choice for vehicle tracking.
