- Comment on GOG: We’re thrilled to announce that the Crysis Remastered Trilogy has joined our catalog, and the original Crysis is now part of the GOG Preservation Program! 1 day ago:
Oh dang now I want to get a group together for that, I loved crysis multiplayer
- Comment on Cloudflare Tunnel? 1 day ago:
For #3 every service will say something like that, even with paid accounts.
- Comment on 1 day ago:
The main things that come to mind are you have to test/monitor 2 seperate actions instead of 1, and restores of single files could be more difficult since you need to login to the backup server, restore the file from a snapshot, then also copy that file back to your PC.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
How does that get sent over rsync though? Wouldn’t you need snapshots on the remote destination server?
Why not just use a backup utility instead?
- Comment on 2 days ago:
What happens if you accidentally overwrite something important in a document and save it though? If there’s no incremental versioning you can’t recover from that.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
Yeah but then it’s not really a good backup!
- Comment on SearXNG doesn't load the settings ... 2 days ago:
Don’t log in to the container shell to edit files, just edit the file on your host directly.
- Comment on SearXNG doesn't load the settings ... 2 days ago:
Nah there’s no debugging here, just edit the config file on the host where it’s stored exactly like you would on a native install.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
Surely restic or borg would be better for backups?
Rsync can send files and not delete stuff, but there’s no versioning or retention settings.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
Different tools for different use cases IMO.
But neither do backups.
- Comment on can we now "safely" auto upgrade immich? 3 days ago:
You can’t safely update anything even if it’s ‘stable’.
But I do auto update and just make sure my backups are working properly in case something breaks that I can’t fix.
- Comment on Need assistance solving unexpected and random I/O errors in homelab 1 week ago:
Potentially an overheating NVMe drive maybe? They can run quite hot without a heat sink on them.
- Comment on Immich mobile app sync V2 1 week ago:
Yeah in that case the app is just handy for searching or viewing photos by face.
- Comment on Immich mobile app sync V2 1 week ago:
Interesting, background sync was completely broken on the new beta timeline for me. I had to open the app, and disable then reenable sync every time I had new photos.
- Comment on Immich mobile app sync V2 1 week ago:
I’ve never had any issues with the old setup oddly enough, they talk like it barely functions lol
- Comment on Immich mobile app sync V2 1 week ago:
The app let’s you see/search all your photos, I have a ton of photos not on my phone.
- Comment on Thoughts on Cloudflare 1 week ago:
The writer doesn’t want to rely on others services, but uses AI for artwork?
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday! What's up? 2 weeks ago:
Correct yeah, you’d still need a way on the host to check if the mount is ready though before starting the service. Or you could just do a fixed delay time.
- Comment on issues setting up nginx as an https proxy 2 weeks ago:
For subdirectories it’s more complex as each application needs to be configured properly too, so you’ll need to go into transmission and tell it what subdirectory you’re using.
Or switch to subdomains as that just works without any extra config, and still let’s you use one port for everything.
- Comment on Selfhosting Sunday! What's up? 2 weeks ago:
You should be able to modify the docker service to wait until a mount is ready before starting. That would be the standard way to deal with that kind of thing.
- Comment on Supporting the future of the open web: Cloudflare is sponsoring Ladybird and Omarchy 2 weeks ago:
For what it’s worth when you set up your site on cloudflare you get to choose how strict you want security to be and what URLs it applies to, or just disable it and use it only as a CDN.
It would be nice if they were more clear that enabling some features might block legitimate users though.
- Comment on Samsung brings ads to US fridges 2 weeks ago:
Yeah gotta inspect the traffic and block whatever hostnames it uses.
- Comment on Mods react as Reddit kicks some of them out again: “This will break the site” 2 weeks ago:
Some did leave, just not nearly as many compared to the numbers that claimed they would.
Thats when I left and made a Lemmy account instead.
- Comment on Samsung brings ads to US fridges 2 weeks ago:
Maybe block the DoH endpoint and in theory the device might fall back to normal DNS, dunno if that would work.
- Comment on Randy Pitchford Snaps Back at Borderlands 4 Criticism: 'Code Your Own Engine' 2 weeks ago:
Maybe I’m just wildly crazy here, but I think a $70 game from a big studio should run well.
We’re not talking some $15 early access title here that lacks optimization because it’s like 2 guys making it in their free time.
- Comment on 'Borderlands 4 is a premium game made for premium gamers' is Randy Pitchford's tone deaf retort to the performance backlash: 'If you're trying to drive a monster truck with a leaf blower's motor, you're going to be disappointed' 3 weeks ago:
Its a recent AAA game on a modern game engine, so it probably runs awful even on top of the line hardware.
Basically every game that comes out these days in the AAA space is a horrible unoptimized mess.
- Comment on Flipper Zero, Car Thieves, and a Brewing Security Crisis: What’s Really Going On? 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like poor design on the manufacturers part if a $20 microprocessor and radio can break into a car.
- Comment on Firefox Nightly now lets you access Microsoft Copilot from the sidebar 4 weeks ago:
Zen fork is great.
- Comment on Managing proxmox, virtual machines, and others 4 weeks ago:
I run debian on everything, so I set up
unattended-upgrades
and basically forget about it. Docker updates are also automatic with Komodo.For monitoring my services I use Uptime Kuma, and get an alert if a service goes down so I can fix it.
Been pretty solid for years now.

I can’t imagine the bitrate was high enough to make much difference in quality… But I don’t know what the technical details were.
