  Sorry I have nothing to contribute to the discussion except:

  YES!!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My new favourite password manager⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Are there advantages to this over self hosting Vaultwarden?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨good alternatives to raspberry pi which are cheap and efficient?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I got a mini pc (e.g. a NUC). I did this after the price for rasps went sky high. Check out used NUCs, you can get a lot of power for the price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosted backup solution with GUI⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I backup Proxmox VMs and templates onto my NAS, and from there into the cloud. If you don’t want the cloud maybe auto backup to an external drive and keep it somewhere safe (out of range of a possible disaster to your home)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you explain your reasons for jumping ship?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t really care why, just don’t say anything that trashes your current employer or makes you look bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should I go with a prebuilt or custom built NAS to get into self hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I went with a Synology and have been very happy with it. Easy to use, very nice GUI, yet quite powerful with the features provided.

  From there I moved on to NUC. I used to host several things through Docker on the Synology but I’m now moving many of those things to the NUC.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is your contingency for when the ISP goes down?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a 5g home internet backup connection. My primary internet is fiber, so my thinking if there is a cut somewhere it could also affect cable, so I use over the air as my backup.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Home Assistant Green is here to make the most powerful smart home platform more accessible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I have HA running in Proxmox and not looking to change, but this is a great device for folks to get into HA ecosystem. The price point is perfect too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why wasn't former President Bush of the USA, charged with any crimes, when we marched into Afghanistan and Iraq by his orders, under pretenses?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  He should have been. Especially after the photos of Abu Ghraib came out. But it is the U.S. so he payed no penalties.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This should be a pinned post as it really captures the essence of my experience so far.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  LMAO. So, so true and I have no problem with it. Self-hosted seems to be one of the most active communities on Lemmy. I learn a lot and y’all all seem cool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Xbox 360 Store Will Close July 2024, But You Can Keep Playing Your Favorite Games⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  News like this, and the 3DS store closing down, is why I purchase physical media for my games.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Footage Shows Tesla On Autopilot Crashing Into Police Car After Alerting Driver 150 Times⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  In fact, by the time the crash happens, it’s alerted the driver to pay more attention no less than 150 times over the course of about 45 minutes. Nevertheless, the system didn’t recognize a lack of engagement to the point that it shut down Autopilot

  I blame the driver, but if the above is true there was a problem with the Tesla as well. The Tesla is intended to disengage and disable autopilot for the remainder of the drive after a small number of ignored alerts. If the car didn’t do that, there’s a bug in the Tesla software.

  I think it’s more likely the driver used a trick to make the car think he was engaged when he was not. You can do things like put a water bottle wedged in the steering wheel to make the car think you have tugged on the steering wheel to prove you are engaged. (Don’t ask me how I know)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What happens if majority of Americans vote for one party and majority of states vote for the other? Would there indefinite deadlock between the [Executive + House of Representatives] vs [The Senate]?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, it happens pretty frequently actually. Right now it is Executive + Senate vs House.

  It means deadlock but not total deadlock. Just more compromise.

  Now if it is Executive + House vs Senate, that has some new conflicts. The Senate confirms judicial appointments, so often in this situation the president’s nominees have a very hard time getting confirmed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server Rundown Part 8⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes thanks for the response!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server Rundown Part 8⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for continuing to share this stuff, it’s super interesting.

  A question if you don’t mind. Are you planning on a retention policy for the Backblaze image storage?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What does it really mean to test an interface not the implementation?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  There is no functionality in the interface so there is nothing to test. You test the logic of the implemented methods.

  With that said, with reflection you can at least test that an interface has the right method names and annotations present, but I’ve extremely rarely found it useful to do so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have I been DoS'd?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Besides the CPU how was the other resource usage on your VPS? Like memory, storage, etc

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Detroit woman sues city after being falsely arrested while pregnant due to facial recognition technology⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Facial recognition by law enforcement should be banned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hey selfhosters, what are you selfhosting?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks for the tip, I will give it a look.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[TECHCRUNCH] Tesla to license FSD to other OEMs, allow transfer of FSD to new cars⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Great news. Seems to mean I can buy a non-Tesla and still get self driving features.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hey selfhosters, what are you selfhosting?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Oooh I’m getting motivated by this post.

  • Home Assistant

  • Jellyfin
  • Plex
  • *arr series, at least up when I am looking for specific content

  I tried Mastodon. Too resource intensive for little I use it.

  Next up in my list to try:

  • Bookwyrm
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thinking of getting a 2ds or 2ds xl. Which one would be more comfy at hand?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  XL without a doubt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what is the current recommendation for a simple home NAS?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I use a 4-bay Synology. Works great. For video you could use Plex or Jellyfin.
