I am super hyped about Arrs. I have configured a stack and yet to activate it. Waiting til I can install Raspberry pi with vpn in another country for an endless downloads.
All the Arr stuff is working really great already. Whats going to happen in future? Can’t wait!
Other than that, Immich is dope.
English speakers (and in some cases even other language speakers) can watch pretty much anything nowadays through free streaming sites. Been binging myflixer for over a year.
We already have charge-only USB cables. Near future will be video-signal-only HDMI cables. What a world to live in.
A really good “people first in mind” politician. But that’s only in fairy tales.
The only sane comment so far.
Rant/ I never got past 3.3.5a due to pirate servers not being really well made for Cata at release and afaik still today they are poorly developed.
I really dig the idea of seamless and stitch-less world map that Cata has introduced. But I also don’t dig what WotLK was at the end of the expansion. I think TBC was the last epic time to play WoW. Maybe early WotLK. To me, dungeon finder and easy battlegrounds queue is what made the game less fun. Yeah, now you do not need to /yell in town square looking for some low level dweebs for them to join your party and travel to a far dungeon for half an hour. But that was the fun part, even tho it took time and effort. Mindless parties from queue killed fun. I remember in TBC looking for a party to go to Deadmines and it was an effort. Joining dungeon finder took me a second, but fun was not there.
My cousin began on private servers and then went to official during Cata I believe. Not sure, but I think he is still playing retail as of today. From his words, game became quite fast paced and you can level up really quick in a day. The whole game play was toned down to dungeons, raids and PVP. From outside sources I got the idea that it became like what happened to Diablo 3. Gameplay during story line was nice. But once first expansion dropped with endless rifts, game became - farm better gear in order to be able to farm even more better gear. Mindless farm simulator.
I am nostalgic for the times when players were friendly with each other. Moments like high levels coming to starter zones and giving out gold and gear to newbies. Contacting local chat or guild to find some payers that will help you with a quest. Asking for tips about certain quests. Actual team-play on battlegrounds. But the thing that will never come back is the sense of discovery. It only can be experienced once.
Even as of right now, playing AzerothCore singleplayer mode, I find best time was during leveling lvl1 to 40. Even alone, with bots. Nothing can beat that Elwyn Forest - Westfall - Redridge Mountain - Duskwood zone combo. I got this tearing up/shivers/inner peace feeling every time I hear Elwyn Forest theme. The Barrens are also speaking to me, but I was mostly an Alliance player.

15yo, TBC on a private server. I really loved the game and our small community of 800 players. Quests were broken. World events were broken. Raids and dungeons were broken. But the spirit of the game was there. Never left the server up until it’s death.
Maybe playing WoW did influence my grades in school, but WoW was not the only game I have played during late Highschool and early Uni. The wasted time metric is entirely owned by LoL. Other than that, I’ve met great people, had a blast and kept some friends and epic memories. So much so, I am running AzerothCore single player modded server of 3.3.5a right now. Memberberries are super tasty with WoW.
^Here I went for a rant about how game became worse with each expansion. Rant removed.^
As a newbie in selfhosting, Immich is what I use almost every day. And it is so good. A literal Google Photos but it’s my own. Snappy web app and android app. Has epic face recognition, contextual search and now even text recognition. All that on an efficient and not so powerful N100 cpu. I can totally see why community loves it.
Mine runs on some rockchip and 2gb ram h side drivestor gen2 Nas. Sluggish, but works with no troubles so far. Or is indeed not a hardware hungry I stance if you use it for you yourself and maybe a few family members
I have 65" 4K TV that runs in tandem with Beelink S12 pro mini-pc. I ran mini in FHD mode to ease up on resources and usually just watch streams/online content on it which is 99% 1080p@60. Unless compression is bad, I don’t feel much difference. In fact, my digitalized DVDs look good even in their native resolution.
For me 4K is a nice-to-have but not a necessity when consuming media. 1080p still looks crisp with enough bitrate.
I’d add that maybe this 4K-8K race is sort of like mp3@320kbps vs flac/wav. Both sound good when played on a decent system. But say, flac is nicer on a specific hardware that a typical consumer wouldn’t buy. Almost none of us own studio-grade 7.1 sytems at home. JBL speaker is what we have and I doubt flac sounds noticeably better on it against mp3@192kbps.
Almost a year of S12 mini as services/HTPC. Cant be happier!
Am I too dumb to understand why sending cartographer data is wrong?
His model is iLife A11 that has Lidar. He probably has an app that is used to control robot and shows cleaning progression. Vac 100% Lidar’d his entire home and sent data to create map in the app.
How in the fuck he thinks it is getting that map? If his ass so smart to find a killswitch and reverse it, how come he doesn’t grasp that map data is sent to a server though which he ca use vac app? Like in what world is it not obvious?
Not even gonna discuss about TOS he signed, or that it is general cheap brand cheap but super smart model for it’s price.
Unless some FOSS firmware and software is installed, that thing most certainly will ping back home every chance it gets.
Sidenote: My TV now is offline cause when it kept calling home (ove 60% of my pi-holes querries of all time was TV), it would freeze due to pi-hole block. Once set offline - issue is gone. I also know my robo vac is pinging, but at the same time if I block it, I’ll lose app controls which I wont do. Sadly, my vac doesn’t support Valetudo.
Good catch. My IP is dynamic. I’ll look into it, thanks!
I have noticed that Microsoft and google are trying to scan my domain for /php-myadmin and similar links that I thankfully do not have.
I had already fail2ban running but it failed to ban a single IP. I did setup custom filters that would ban admin panel scanning attempts but somehow now it also bans my home IP and my phone 5G ip sometimes. No idea how to fix it so far. Also, this filter/jail doesnt necessarily jail everyone attempting to reach these links, just sometimes it does.
U mean converting?
