So, no-one’s mentioned tailscale. If it’s just for you, or some select friends, it’s probably the least friction to get secure access to your home network. Still, gotta check your threat matrix, do you really need it, is it really worth it for that occasional, maybe hypothetical usage ? Least access is best security…
Wow perfect write-up ! Thanks for your hard work !
I hope someone will be motivated enough to translate it to Treafik ! I’m not versed enough to actually mess with the config files on such level… Let alone to understand Nginx’s syntax 🫠 but very cool for Nginx users !!!
I don’t use Traefik myself, but this documentation page seems to suggest that Traefik only allows in-memory cache (which would eat RAM and not persist across reboots). You can probably run Nginx with this config inside a container for the caching, then use Traefik to handle requests to immich.your-domain.tld/map_proxy/* with the caching proxy container.
Hmm, Church and State… I much prefer having a separate RSS reader (FreshRSS in my case) for news, as I see it, and lemmy for more frivolous purposes. YMMV.
Same here. This seems valuable for anyone who would want Lemmy to be a first-class RSS reader. But I prefer to just use my RSS reader and add feeds to that.
I use a combination of RSS feeds provided by Lemmy and the ones provided by openrss.org, which has most if not all news sites nytimes, bbc, etc.
I think they can both be useful. Some people will prefer to have an RSS reader pulling the feeds from Lemmy communities, and some people will prefer to have Lemmy as their home base, so to speak, and like to be able to add updates from some RSS feeds to that.
Roleplay (text adventures), a (stupid but occasionally funny) dungeon master, translation and help with creativity. These are the use cases I found. If you don't need that, you might get rid of it.
Install F-Droid and IzzyOnDroid repos and you can use it for whatever you find there. I use mine as an alarm clock, note pad, music player and spare camera around the house. Sometimes a browser (wifi) but it's a bit old. I thought about putting all my recipes in text format and using it as a cookbook as well.
That’s what I use an old phone for. In the kitchen it’s a timer, notepad, and music player. I read the news on it while having coffee.
I could do that all on my main phone of course but if I’m cooking or having coffee my main phone is both off and elsewhere. I don’t like to be disturbed.
Oh, and I use it to test apps before they go on my main phone.
Easy when there are bad people you’re interested in.
Buy 100M worth of drones with ammo and transportation, only I’ll have to find somebody from former Artsakh Defense Army to ask where.
Or maybe just buy samples of anthrax, bubonic plague, some particular nasty kind of covid and other such nice things, lots of pests able to carry them and, of course, rodents, bribe lots of people on my way and bring all that stuff to Baku.
External drive? Is it a usb drive? If it is you might be best pulling out the drive and connecting it to a sata port. The mount as read only and do what everyone else suggests
Customer pays with a $50 or $100 bill and the till requires that I check it
Customer: “It’s good, I just printed it this morning.”
Some days I just had to pretend I didn’t hear them.
Pro tip: if you have a “go to” joke you always say in a given situation, guaranteed the person you’re saying it to has already heard it several times this week. Just don’t.
And before anyone responds with “they’re just trying to improve your day” they’re not. If I don’t find the joke funny they get offended, that means they aren’t doing it for me, they’re doing it to show off how great and funny they are.
Pro tip: don’t tell someone a joke if you’re going to be offended if they don’t laugh.
I use my spare as kind of a media controller sort of speak thanks to kdeconnect and casting locally. In the near future, I want to get into emulation so that might be what the spare phone gets used for instead with the help of one of those cheap steam deck docks for USB C. As for more creative ideas, I heard some people use them as a dedicated GPS, media player or even a dashcam for their cars (not sure how the battery would hold up in the heat and whatnot). You can use it to remote view your pc or even play games from that same pc or even one you don’t own through cloud gaming. You can repurpose it to be a 2fa device only, so you can keep your TOTPs and other 2fa methods separated from your main assuming the device is up to date security wise. If the camera and whatnot are decent maybe keep it as a spare camera for all your video/picture needs (online meetings, video recording, document scanner, etc…) a dock might be useful for that. If your spare has that desktop like experience when you connect it via HDMI there’s nothing stopping you from using it as a really lightweight computer to do basic web stuff. These are really vague answers since I don’t know what phone you have but I hope it helps get the ball rolling
I like the remoting into my PC or leaving it for meetings ideas. But atm I don’t have a job that requires those (looking for said job has been an ongoing issue for a while now). I’ll keep it in mind though, thanks for the suggestions!

phones geared towards gamers work best for this since they’re usually built with heat-syncs and fans; or atleast extensive thermal dissipation in mind.
The openSUSE installer supports more than 50 different languages but only a few of them have their full localization on the media. To add additional localization to your system, you need to invoke software installation once you have online access.
