Trackers for children programmes?

Hi there, sorry if this information has already been shared, I had a look in the megathread and wiki and could not find something specific to children programmes. Is there a good tracker for them? Preferably a public one. I’m particularly interested in any kind of star wars content (like Lego) but I’m not finding much. Any...

Pepper Pig is on the French tracker yggtorrents (dual French and English audio)

What is your machine naming scheme?

I’ve ended up with a number of machines on my network, and a need to name them all in a somewhat logical way. For several years I had them named after the planets, which worked well until the PCs for myself, my girlfriend, servers and Raspberry Pi’s quickly summed up to more than the eight planets. I’ve broadened it...

innercitadel ,

This is my favourite comment. I laughed out loud. Thank you.

innercitadel ,

So more of a “cattle” than “pet” approach in general?

innercitadel ,

The article honestly reads like it was written by an AI tool.

innercitadel ,

How does that work exactly? Do you partition the USB drive and make Ventoy bootable in one partition and then put the isos on the other partition or something?

innercitadel ,

This is one of those things I didn’t know I needed. I have so many usb sticks lying around with various troubleshooting isos. This is a game changer.

CPU/mobo/RAM upgrade suggestions for general use server

I’m looking to upgrade my Plex and game server. I currently have an i5-4690K with 16 GB DDR3 and it’s struggling a lot. My PSU is a 850W gold rated EVGA from 2017 so I don’t think it needs upgraded quite yet since I’ve been way under the wattage for most of its life....

If they want to transcode they’ll need a dedicated GPU in that instance because they’ll lose QuickSync.

Why do some ISPs charge a monthly fee and others a one off fee? I paid one off with my ISP several years ago for my static IPv4.

innercitadel , (edited )

Thank you that was really informative. I paid <$50 for my IP address in 2015. My ISP has been around since 1990 so I suppose they may have been one of the lucky companies. Not sure if they do RPKI, first I’m learning of it. Maybe they’re cross subsidizing from other areas of the business. Their monthly fibre fee isn’t the most competitive but the service is reliable and haven’t had anything to complain about.

They are a little behind in speeds though. They only offer 900mbps asymmetrical max, while you can get 2, 4 and 8gbit in my area from other providers. I don’t need that kind of speed so I’m happy for now.

innercitadel ,

Yeah I always coveted one but couldn’t justify the cost over second hand dell or lenovo SFF PCs.

Hosting personal websites on your own hardware is such a pain, and I would imaging doing it on a rpi would be even more of a pain than on x86 architecture. If at all an option I’d recommend hosting on something like github pages or better still on a VPS.

innercitadel ,

Ah OK, I might have assumed wrong then that running a server on ARM is a little trickier. Never done it. Only ever used nginx for my websites on my VPS. Don’t want to deal with the security and uptime headaches of running my websites on my home server.

innercitadel , (edited )

I run 4 websites on my one VPS, and 2 websites on another more restricted cloud container service. Three wordpress, one DICOM server and viewer (radiology image database), one moodle, and one complex git mediawiki setup. Plus some sandbox stuff. Get about 10,000 unique views a day in total across all sites.

I don’t know enough about network security to run that safely nor how to get great uptime at home as I run it all single handed and my day job has little to do with computers (am a medical doctor). I do expose some docker apps to the internet that run on my home server but they are only used by friends and family.

When I’ve needed temporary simple static web pages I’ve used jekyll on github pages and found it great.

innercitadel ,

Oh wow genuinely interesting. Thanks, I’ve learned something. I had the wrong impression.

Coreboot importance?

How important is it to have something like coreboot for your firmware/BIOS on your router? I run pfsense on a mini PC router from aliexpress that has an Intel n100 cpu in it, so I guess the bios is intel as well. I self host a few things on an unraid machine, some apps are exposed to the internet through cloudflare tunnels.

innercitadel OP ,

One of the two OPT ports isn’t working but could be user error. I was thinking of setting up LAGG through the two OPT ports in the future, so that may not be possible, but probably overkill for my use case anyway. But otherwise it boots and works fine. What about from a security standpoint for coreboot vs intel bios?

innercitadel ,

I self host one of my emails on my VPS. I can’t even remember the software I used it’s been that long. One issue I have is spam. Have you found any way of controlling that?

innercitadel ,

Komga (comics), Plex, Audiobookshelf

innercitadel , (edited )

Oh wow that catch all thing sounds like a really handy alternative to disposable emails. Thank you! I will also look into spam assassin. Logged into my VPS to remember what software I’m using - dovecot and postfix.

EDIT: installed and configured SpamAssassin. Thank you, that was easy!

Mid 30s, healthcare worker but I suppose I’m a tech enthusiast. Use windows on work computer due to needing a few windows only programs for work, Unraid on my NAS, and Ubuntu on my VPS. So I guess 1 and 3 are true and half of 2.

innercitadel ,

VPS (Ubuntu on 4 virtual cores, 10GB ram, 100GB NVME)

  • Mediawiki with semantic mediawiki and various plug-ins and 650 pages
  • Orthantic and OHIF (radiology images)
  • Moodle (docker)

Cloud container provider (different to above VPS provider)

  • 3 x mediawiki sites

Homelab (Unraid on i7 4790, 16gb RAM, 3 x 10TB HDD, 4TB external disk, no cache disk yet, RTX 3070, fractal define 7 mid tower)

  • Plex
  • Komga (comics)
  • Audiobookshelf
  • Kavita and Calibre (books)
  • Photoview (family photos)
  • Filebrowser (work)
  • Cloudflared (zero trust tunnels)
  • Heimdall (dashboard)
  • Krusader
  • Plugins: docker compose manager, docker patch, unassigned devices

Have ordered an N100 mini PC from aliexpress with plans of installing OPNsense and running a couple VMs on it.

My gaming computer for interest, not currently hosting anything: 5800X3D, 7900XTX, 32GB ram, 2TB NVME, 2TB SSD, 4TB HDD, fractal meshify midbtower case.

I also have a Pi 4 and a Pi 3 that I don’t have any use for currently. Open to ideas. I already run Adguard on phone and Ublock origin on desktop browser, and don’t see any current use for Pihole.

Get a static ip if at all possible. The work arounds with a dynamic IP are simply not as good. Or if your ISP and router fully support IPv6 you could alternatively go down that route.
