What's the cheapest online storage that you know of? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

If you're into SCP/FTP/Rsync/SMB check out Hetzner Storage Servers. About 3 € for 1 TB, including 10 snapshots

Thanks for the great sarcasm mate

Using Pi's to run services in my homelab which I want to keep separate from my server (to have some sort of failover in case the server goes down). Status/Monitoring, VPN server and so on

That - good sir - is a very valid argument

Can someone please help me out? I don't get it

This seems like the right way - informing users, those who don't care don't care with or without. I'd say that's fully withing the freedom philosophy

Help Choosing OS for Plex Media Server in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Interesting... I used to use Jellyfin about a year ago until it suddenly stopped working. Now with new equipment and infrastructure I gave it another shot. I think I have to stick with Emby for now... Thanks for your view!

I tried Jellyfin for a few days now and have to say I was absolutely displeased by the stability of the clients (except browser) and sloweness.

Figured the bottleneck was somewhere else so decided to just try Emby with a 1-m pass. Emby works absolutely beautifully. No issues AT ALL regarding speed, transcoding, clients, or anything. I click the video a second later it’s up. Even through a VPN. Jellyfin frustrated me sometimes locally via LAN.

However I still want to give Jellyfin a shot. Have you experienced similar?

No more YouTube recommendations on Android if video history is turned off in c/[email protected]

Yes and no. Without a users video history (& other tracking turned off) best they can do is push random ads hoping it would hit one in a million. That is not effective and sometimes even diseffective (hitting a controversially opposite target). Tha harms YouTube on both ends more than the ad’s company

By pushing users to turn it on they apparently gain more than just pushing random horse crap.

Docker & Databases. Stack or Individual? (kbin.social)
 

So I'm in the process of (re-) setting up my homelab and unsure about how to handle databases. Many images require a database, which the docker-compose usually provides inside the stack.

Now my question, shall I have 1 database container which is accessed by all containers? Or shall I have a separate container for each service?

For critical services, which shall have as few dependencies as possible I'm already using sqlite or a similar solution.

Also on a sidenote: I have two docker hosts, can I let the containers of 1 hypervisors use the same internal docker network?

TIA!

ELI5 Cloudflare Tunnel (kbin.social)
 

So everyone is talking about cloudflare tunnels and I decided to give it a shot.

However, I find the learning curve quite hard and would really appreciate a short introduction into how they work and how do I set them up…

In my current infrastructure I am running a reverse proxy with SSL and Authentik, but nothing is exposed outside. I access my network via a VPN but would like to try out and consider CF. Might be easier for the family.

How does authentication work? Is it really a secure way to expose internal services?

Thanks!

Flatpak vs Snap vs Native Packages (kbin.social)

So I know my way around Linux pretty well. However I never really got the gist of the difference between Snap, Flatpak and Native packages.

What exactly sets them apart?

Why does everyone seem to hate snap?

I have been using all of them, simultaneously on the same system and never really noticed a difference in the way installation, updates etc are handled (syntax ofc).

I hear snap sandboxes? Is that the main reason? Thanks for your insights..

The Central bank chiefs indicate willingness to maintain high interest rates to control inflation (www.ft.com)
 

Leaders of major central banks are ready to increase interest rates to control inflation

They are targeting a rate of about 2%. Mainly influences by the current conditions in the labor markets + rising wages.

The IMF warns this could trigger a financial crisis. Inflations are high everywhere (~6% EU, 4% US, 9%UK).

I feel the lack of AI bots in the Fediverse (kbin.social)
 

I can actually feel the lack of bots, AI replies and chatGPT comments in the threads. I cant exactly pin point it to a specific trait or writing style but you can feel the humans behind these comments.

There is no toxicity, no "in conclusion", no stupid summaries.

Amazing. Although I want this to take over Reddit at some point, the small community and lack of publicity we have at the moment is amazing.

60% of subreddits are still dark! Reddit activity down 30% (kbin.social)
 

The reddit blackout is even more effectivte than expected! 5177/8829 (~60%) of subreddits are still dark [1] and the posts per minute are down to 1000 from 1400 [2].

This is huge. Subreddits were supposed to be back up yesterday. I personally missed Reddit the first day but now I am super comfortable here.

Glad to have found a new place to hang out!

Edit: Reddit has 100k subs, 60% out of those who officially signed up

With an new beginning come NEW USERNAMES (kbin.social)
 

Did you ever wanna have a username but it was taken? Us early adopters to the fediverse can now freely choose nice, untaken usernames!

Let that sink in. We have the luxury and freedom to nearly choose any username we want. without having to add unnecessary underscores or numbers.

Thats nice.
