Now explain why some people are “down for things” while others are “up for it”

abominable_panda ,

This, as well as the fediverse’s double edged feature that stuff pretty much can never be deleted (only “requested”).

This sounds like a privacy nightmare

Ingenious ways to measure power draw

So I wanted to get myself a Kill-a-watt. Being who I am, I wanted information regarding its accuracy, especially at low power draws. I found a comparison with a industry grade equipment (Fluke is about the best out there in handheld electrical meters). It’s not encouraging, so I thought about a more proper meter, but it’s...

abominable_panda ,

In terms of raw data, any properly calibrated equipment should be identical.

You could build one yourself or have a look at how to get readings from your actual electricity meter. Both can be found on the open energy monitor project page. If you self build i guess you could use a lower value CT that amplifies lower currents and just not use it at higher loads?

Mains power fluctuates a LOT though so youll definitely need averaging to some extent

Having to wind back a cassette or vcr with a paperclip or spoon if the strip got tangled, or even just having to wait for the player to forward/rewind

Menstruation cycle tracking app breached users' privacy, B.C. class-action lawsuit alleges (bc.ctvnews.ca)

VANCOUVER - A British Columbia Supreme Court judge says a class-action lawsuit can move forward over alleged privacy breaches against a company that made an app to track users’ menstrual and fertility cycles. The ruling published online Friday says the action against Flo Health Inc. alleges the company shared users’ highly...

Encryption and password protection is in the changelog for drips first version v0.0.1 - 5 years ago

I couldnt find your app on fdroid btw

abominable_panda ,

Yep it was a struggle to find. I checked website, issues and then finally made a last attempt at the change logs. It should be advertised more for that added piece of mind.

I didnt mean to shoot your app down by the way, in case it came across that way. Ive never used these apps

Thanks for developing your version though. People like you make this community what it is :)

Would flash memory survive in a microwave? How has she managed to get this footage to post if the camera died?

VSCodium is less bloated

Theres so much to unpack…! But ill try and throw something in the mix.

I dont know if freenas/ truenas supports a lot of addons or whatever they call it but the moment you mentioned media and games my thought went to proxmox, though i suppose you might also be able to get away with a bunch of docker containers.

Soo… proxmox (or any hypervisor) will allow you to run multiple segregated VMs and containers.

On one vm you can install freenas/ truenas (whichever the good one is atm, im a little out of touch) and allocate the bulk storage drives to it.

Another vm for Plex/jellyfin

Another for minecraft, factorio, tf2

Another for nextcloud/ webserver

Nextcloud provides webdav/ caldav for calendar and contact syncing so sorted there. It also has a collabora app i think for collaborative document working.

In terms of security, you want to follow nextclouds secure configuration guide as a start.

The best way is to use a vpn to access your home network. Maybe give the others access if you trust them but you may then need to do some vlanning and segregation to protect the rest of your home network from them.

If you must expose to the net (which you may do with the games servers) then again, the config guide has you covered, use crowdsec, use https, use random ports, use strong passwords and mfa.

Do regular backups. 3 copies, 2 separate storage mediums, 1 offsite (3-2-1 rule).

Idk about the 8tb drive.

The above isnt the be all end all. Let it be the start of a discussion and your research journey

abominable_panda ,

here

abominable_panda ,

Commenting because id also like to know.

In my case I resorted to using another enclosure/ adapter

abominable_panda ,

I dont know either. I used a seagate usb to sata adapter too and that gave me problems with large drives. Nothing on the datasheet mentioned anything, so i had an old backup external drive and swapped the drives to do my formatting/ transfer before putting the original back together

abominable_panda ,

Does your nginx config know how to handle a direct IP address request? Seems like its set up for domain name only?

abominable_panda ,

Oh yeah my mistake. Ill give it some thought but in the meantime you might find more help in the selfhosted community

abominable_panda ,

Generally if youre selfhosting a vpn is better from a cyber security perspective anyway.

abominable_panda ,

Looking at the config have you set up the domain name and everything for WAN?

abominable_panda ,

Caterpillar > Cocoon > Butterfly / Moth

Wait…

abominable_panda ,

Assuming you have a separate number for work:

Download shelter or island and create a work profile on your android device

Use your normal profile (and one instance of signal with personal number) for personal stuff

Use the work profile (second signal instance, work number) and separate contacts list for work

Link the work number/ signal to pc

abominable_panda ,

Many selfhosted NVRs have been suggested. Personally ive tried:

iSpy

Frigate

Zoneminder

Shinobi

Ended up settling on zoneminder at this stage.

For cameras themselves i just want to point out the OpenIPC project - opensource firmware if youre technically inclined

abominable_panda ,

Yeah, i faced the same challenge. I understand why they do it like that (cameras potentially mixing socs)…

I think there are some make/ models on their project but its far and few. Ive flashed 1 camera so far but had to check the soc myself

I need to crack open my (cheap chinese) cameras and check them at some point. Ive noticed them pinging my pihole for secu100 for cloud services. At least theyre blocked for internet access!

abominable_panda ,

Syncthing works very well for cross platform syncing

abominable_panda ,

Someone might suggest something more elegant but one solution is a trunk port, maybe on your router, maybe a downstream switch (assuming wireless Ap is downstream of all of those) and connect that to wireguard on your server?

Ideas for self-hosted services

I’ve had a “home lab server” for a while now, it’s nothing special but I think I can do more with it, I just don’t know what to do with it… I currently use it just for a pihole and (sometimes) a Minecraft server or a web server… I used to also have a nexcloud and a searxng instance (which I will probably bring...

abominable_panda ,

I use syncthing for this. Keepass and photos sync instantly

abominable_panda ,

Mind telling us more about this please? What services are you running and how? Docker?

Monitoring battery current in Android

I’m having a lot of problems with my charging. Sometimes I connect the charging cable, the “charging” light turns on, but the device doesn’t charge (or charges extremely slowly, such as 1-2% overnight). Just disconnecting the cable and reconnecting fixes the issue. I think the charge socket is getting loose....

abominable_panda ,

I think Accubattery on playstore shows charge current. Im not sure where it gets the data from but it might be what youre looking for
