I disagree with what you’re implying. FYI, I’m a migrant in Germany, follow [email protected] to practice the language and it’s my understanding that most of the posts there are inclined towards progressive or leftist ideals. Also, I chose migrating here instead of the US because it felt like it has less fascists. Of course, that’s just my humble world view.

What to do with a beefy server?

Alright, this may be a bit of a loaded question. But I figured it may provide good insight to both myself and to others. I just came into a pretty beefy server - dual Xeon E5 2699 v3’s (18 cores each), 768 gigs of RAM. Ten front drive bays, 6 of which have 7.68T NVMes and 4 of which have 15.36T SAS drives. I’m thinking the...

My must have is searxng, although anyone can have that in their laptop, it doesn’t take many resources nor configuration. I guess you may gift nextcloud accounts to family and friends too :)

To all who didn’t know, ERD stands for entity relationship diagram. It’s a graphic overview of your database. And this is one of the requirements OP seems to be asking in a tool but unfortunately he refused to explain.

But ‘Stories’ are from IG, owned by Meta… so… we rather stay quiet on this occasion xdd

anzo ,

For code, being old is not always bad. Take for example some Unix commands, like copying files between servers using the ssh protocol. That hasn’t changed in 50 or more years. So, if there’re API endpoints in both apps, setting a cronjob would let you monitor every minute if you’re streaming, and then do the switch. Or, even better, you may be able to have a hook/ trigger design pattern. Can you link to the scripts? Have you tested them at all?

anzo ,

As others just said, take the challenge of repairing or correctly identify what’s broken. It should be fun, and part of the diy ethos.

If, you are still going for a new piece for the upgrades…

Depends very much on your scope. Heck, there’s even aesthetics. Do you prefer AMD or Intel? Don’t you feel like having an ARM and take the challenge of compatible images? Would you need to check the transcoding compatibility for Jellyfin? Are you going fangless? Is one 2.5gpbs eth port enough? Etc.

That said, check the reviews from www.servethehome.com they have articles with benchmarks and videos for all the latest nucs and other hardware’s form factor servers.

Be aware that Intel discontinued the NUCs iirc… but Asus or some vendor might have picked up to grab that market segment.

Good luck!

anzo ,

Actually, only after posting it came to my mind that anyway all intel nukes are fangless. That’s their appeal. So that their bytes leave no marks. Long live the vempire.

“kids: don’t do drugs with a baby in the womb” is really good advice but kids should not be doing drugs either inside or outside the womb.

Or, everyone should have vendor options to pick ;)

anzo ,

Look no more, use this! www.system-rescue.org/System-tools/

anzo ,

True. And use chroot ;) then you can apt update, etc. If the problem is on the distro itself (e.g. not a failing hard drive)

I’m unsure but maybe hetzner admin panel is usable without JS.

Snikket.org is an xmmp server that bundles common extensions

Lightweight paperless-ngx alternative?

As much as I adore paperless-ngx for its UX, I hate it for its tech-stack. Idling it already uses 300 MB RAM, when changing a few metadata fields on a document it easily spikes to 700 oder 800 MB. That’s insane for the work it actually does. Is there anything more lightweight? All I need is metadata management and a gallery...

anzo ,

Wasn’t this reported as a bug on their repo? Does anyone know why is it eating such an amount of ram? It might be that this can be fixed.

Help choosing a path forward - Looking for some advice on a NAS platform

I’m having trouble deciding which software platform fits my hardware. This is not a standard “what’s the best” type of post, as ultimately they will all run containers so it’s more “I have this stuff, what would you do in my situation?”....

Maybe check proxmox? It’s a debian distro for VMs.

Question about Vaultwarden

Currently I manage my passwords in an archaic but secure way, which is simply to synchronize a directory where I have my Keepass database between my devices, and I say archaic but secure because even if my Nextcloud server hosted on a VPS explode (where I have the database stored) I still have the databases stored locally, so I...

anzo ,

Depending on which database you have, backup strategy may vary. One lovely approach for SQLite is litestream + backblaze. For a small server like yourself it will fit in the free tier ;)

anzo OP ,

Thanks for adding this. (I think I used the crosspost button on the desktop PC… yet, indeed, in my Lemmy client on mobile I’m not seeing the reference).

anzo ,

I understand these files are not images or binary. But you should specify a bit better if they’re PDF, XLS, DOC, etc or what else…

I’m sure that apache solr or elasticsearch can index these files. And there are nextcloud apps to integrate such indexes. For example, this one github.com/nextcloud/fulltextsearch/wiki

anzo ,

I only discovered local-first recently. Indeed, with only 1 node doing self-hosting of any app there seems to be no difference, but that’s a narrow view. The local-first apps are a new concept, using new data structures (e.g. CRDTs), you can read more in a non-technical ‘manifesto’ here: www.inkandswitch.com/local-first/ this is indeed a highly cited article within the movement.

anzo ,

+1 to Mullvad. I only switched to NordVPN because I wanted to use an IP address from a country they have servers on.

Thanks

I just wanted to thank this community for the many before it where I learned the way. I’m new to lemmy/fediverse but i have been lurking among the other sailors for over 10 years and have amassed a 25 TB library of content for my family and I. I started on a repurposed core2duo workstation running a headless xbmcbuntu install...

Themoviedb.org (an alternative to IMDb) has open API, and this self-hosted web app uses it nicely: github.com/aleksilassila/reiverr#list-of-major-fe…

    Why wouldn’t they? I use arch btw. No joke intended.

    There are plenty of code repositories with ‘udemy downloader’ in their name, all with their own set of forks. Take a look, have fun, and good luck!

    anzo ,

    onedev.io wasn’t mentioned.

    Also, be aware that gitea was forked by the community into forgejo because of reasons.

    anzo ,

    Maybe you can compare to what mailcow or docker-mailserver provide to their users.

    anzo OP ,

    Of course! This is just a set of docker containers.

    Runtipi: Homeserver management made easy (www.runtipi.io)

    It has an ‘App store’ that’s been growing a lot lately. Writing new docker-compose.yaml files is easy (see: www.runtipi.io/docs/…/adding-a-new-app ), and exposing them behind NAT, e.g. from home it’s easy too (see: runtipi.io/…/expose-apps-with-cloudflare-tunnels )… But my favorite perk is the folder structure...

    anzo OP ,

    This requires some command line to fully tame the beast(s)… sorry, the apps! that you’d be hosting. If you prefer an easy solution, for Nextcloud, specifically, I think you can try the managed instances (e.g. Hetzer offers ‘nx’ boxes). It’s better than paying premium fees to GAFAM imho every step counts ;)

    anzo OP ,

    The dashboard, and all apps, have Traefik on top. The certs are generated there. Cloudfare Tunnels is just an option.

    anzo OP ,

    The most salient difference is that YNHST is tied to Debian, while Runtipi is a set of containers you can install on any distro

    anzo OP ,

    These comparisons are extremely difficult to make (not many people really tried all, we all judge from docs, etc.) That being said, I think runtipi is simpler in the curve of customization, if you have the knowledge. If you don’t, well then maybe, a full-blown OS is better. But my original post addressed the advantage I see on runtipi, with all the links to the docs. It’s powerful and encourages customization. To me, it’s a good mid-point between ‘raw’ docker (e.g. linuxserver.io which btw provides most of the images), and a highly automatized system. For example, one of the bigger features is that you can set repositories (e.g. on GitHub) as stores: I will repeat the link to these docs here: www.runtipi.io/docs/…/adding-a-new-app …over these repos you simply write docker-compose YAML files. I don’t know what’s the solution to this on CasaOS, but YunoHost has a set of scripts or bash functions. That’s something I believe takes more effort to mantain. All in all, imho, runtipi has a good balance between flexibility, complexity, and customization.

    anzo OP ,

    Thanks for the detailed review! As another user, I agree overall with your experience. Just for the sake of explain how the applications are configured, let me add this. Port numbers are defined in, for example, github.com/meienberger/…/config.json …Meanwhile, file permissions should be set as PID/GID 1000, according to github.com/meienberger/…/docker-compose.yml

    anzo OP ,

    To be clear, you have a (user:group) 1000:1000 on both containers? What about having the same mapping of Uid and Gid on the host? I assume the host is a desktop distro, and they usually have it already. You would require the three, so that permissions are “coherent” between each system

    anzo ,

    Check if airvpn client has a Killswitch option.

    Are you using docker? If so, you may use gluetun or run the vpn client inside the qbittirent container

    Also, some vpn provide adblocking. So, another way would be… skip pihole and just use raspAP to create a WLAN where all devices connect. You may even turn off your router wifi and rename the newly created WLAN so that your brother doesn’t even know ;)

    I haven’t tried it really, but maybe there are tutorials.

    anzo ,

    I don’t know about it but I can assure you that having a programme to study is good strategy. Often the learning is hindered by having a huge data deluge. That being said, there are plenty of free resources. For example, take the github repos like domain-specific awesome lists, open source university (ossu, lists online courses for different careers) or even this: github.com/jwasham/coding-interview-university

    anzo ,

    Check affine.pro it’s really flexible. Some features might seem overkill. But I think that the flexibility might pay off in some situations (e.g. adding drawings, having character profiles in separate docs, add location maps, etc.)

    It’s a local-first alternative to Notion. Just a few months ago they added export to pdf (there’s markdown too, of course) github.com/toeverything/AFFiNE/pull/2604

    anzo ,

    Try rsnapshot, it’s rsync with hard links. Though, is better to use snapshots on filesystem (be it zfs, btrfs, or another one with such a feature… Might be CoW is required, never thought much about it …)
