I mean first of all, not every part of the world needs it. Second… everyone who needs it and can’t afford it should also have access.

Giving it to group A does not, in cases like this, preclude group B from it as well.

Look into TubeArchivist! It has a companion plugin for Jellyfin support

Awesome idea for a D&D monster though. A coin mimic which only attacks when you try to spend it lol

theRealBassist ,

I feel like the closest in the deep south is just “preaching to the choir”. A redundant task which ignores a probably better path or explaining something to someone who doesn’t need it explained to them.

I worked for the stormwater division of my city up until recently.

We had 6 people responsible for the inspection of over 30,000 pieces of stormwater infrastructure all of which needs to be inspected within a 5 year cycle. We also have to deal with citizen complaints, assisting other departments, updating maps/inventories, writing EPD/EPA reports, etc. and all for 15-18$/hr. My experience is far from abnormal as well.

We need city level government to actually give a shit about stormwater infrastructure to even get things working halfway properly let alone setup safety features.

theRealBassist ,

That’s not a storm drain, known as an inlet. That’s a pipe section functioning as a culvert or outfall.

Valinor - Proxmox server Khazad-Dum - TrueNAS Scale Rivendell - Ubuntu 22.04 server

Got a few others as well, but those are the ones I interact with the most.

Literally not at all. It’s a completely different genre.

My confusion with this post is that it already exists? It’s just your home screen on your phone.

Ergonomic, supports a variety of functions (adjusting settings, running applications, customization, viewing device info), is loosely standardized (much like terminals across OSs), and widely adopted.

The only difference is touch interface vs. Text interface.

Like what are you actually looking for? A gesture controlled terminal or an interface? You already have the latter.

Also, if you’re not in a rush, just email the authors!

A vast majority of professors and researchers hate the publishing industry as much as anyone, and will be happy to shoot you a pdf if you’re interested in their work!

A secure but inaccessible server is useless.

Security must take into account the needs of the real world.

I would love to read or something while sitting doing nothing every day. However, I get yelled at and constantly receive shit from my coworkers for being lazy… while they also don’t do shit.

So I sit… and stare at my screen… and press buttons occasionally.

How to drop files from Android to home server?

I’m looking for an easy way to upload files from my Android smartphone to my home server. is there a - ideally dockerized - solution for that? Some simple web GUI where I can click on “Upload” and the files will be saved to a certain directory on my home server?...

theRealBassist ,

So, at least on Samsung, the MyFiles app, the default file browser, allows for network connections via smb.

In my case, I use a vpn to tunnel into my network, and then just use the smb share.

It also allows for FTP and SFTP.

theRealBassist ,

SSHFS also has a windows release.

theRealBassist ,

There’s a weird thing with bind mounts and permissions.

In my case, for my Ubuntu VM to have correct perms for 0:0 (root), the PID and GID in ProxMox’s fstab need to be like 11000:10000 or something.

It’s apparently working as intended that way, but it’s weird.

Y’all are listening to audiobookd at 1.5x???

I just tried it… it’s like clippy. How do you do that?

I’m both a gamer and HP fan.

I thought the game was great, and I didn’t really realize the depths of people’s distaste for it, I guess.

Was it crazy revolutionary? No, but it was fun.

in a hospital in the occupied West Bank city of Jenin.

The city is called Jenin. The splinter grouped is named for the city. The cemetary is named for the city.

Man I got some friends who are archivists, and they’d love that shit lol.

They love their field, but it’s a lot of mind-numbing work

theRealBassist ,

Right now my TrueNAS is virtualized and I truly hate it. It’s been a constant issue for me.

That said, I can’t afford separate hardware atm. I will be able to soon, but not quite yet lol

theRealBassist ,

No it still proves it.

Voting = change. However, sometimes change doesn’t go your direction.

theRealBassist ,

I don’t think this would solve your particular use case. However, SSHFS is absolutely amazing for remote smb share access.

I used it on my laptop to access my home NAS for years.

Man why does it have to be on Epic? Like I don’t despise Epic like a lot of people, but it’s still a pain in the ass to deal with.

theRealBassist ,

It would follow whatevers in his will (sort of). It’s fairly complicated

How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....

theRealBassist ,

Office 365 online can be a good stopgap for those cases if you need it.

What are bottles?

theRealBassist ,

Yea diskpart is its own little beast.

Surprisingly really functional though. Probably my favorite windows command

theRealBassist ,

AAA just refers to production scale/marketing budget. While it can often be conflated with high quality, that’s not what the term refers to. Similarly, Indie does not mean low quality, high quality, or a particular level of risk

Madden, as a famous example, has always been AAA, but has rarely innovated much.

theRealBassist ,

Fair play. I’ll absolutely concede that your position makes sense. It’s not quite how I envision it, nor understand it, but that’s fine lol

theRealBassist ,

I don’t believe so. As I understand it, all Premium money goes into a big bucket. Then, views/watchtime/etc. are used to calculate what percentage of the pie a given creator will receive.

theRealBassist ,

Technically I do, maybe? My home server is running ProxMox which virtualizes PFSense. My docker install is on a separate VM, but same physical device. Not sure if that counts lol

theRealBassist ,

Good human?

But seriously that’s helpful info.

theRealBassist ,

I might actually swap to that from Navidrome. Dealing with Metadata has been such a pain and it rarely works properly lol

You csn hate a company and like a product. They aren’t mutually exclusive.

Only the absolute basics.

I’m extremely anti-gatekeeping any hobby, and I’ve never gotten any bad vibes off him. He nearly always addresses the fact that many of the minutae that he focuses on are for the extreme nerds with extra money/time to spare. He even regularly talks about how many of the ideal processes he talks about, he doesn’t do because it’s a PITA.

He’s very slow to recommend expensive/time consuming products, and he’s quick to offer more reasonable alternatives.

That said, he’s a coffee nerd with money to spare, so he definitely gets excited and involved with things that are a bit beyond your average bear.

theRealBassist ,

Free with lots of features stripped out

Yea that’s totally fair. I’m just bitter cuz it makes running my D&D sessions harder lol

Apparently it's been out since June and I just never realized, but there's a new pfsense out.

https://www.netgate.com/blog/pfsense-2.7.0-and-23.05

Not exactly timely, but I bet I'm not the only one who easily forgets about that particular thing. Most of my stuff is set to autoupdate so I tend to forget.

The upgrade downloaded a large number of packages, I think about 160, during which network connectivity continued to function. After downloading, my router PC reset, and that first boot after the upgrade took quite a few minutes. I ended up running the 90 second timer out after which it reset to 20 seconds a number of times. I was just about to start digging for an HDMI cable to see what when I heard the router beep and my internet came back. Perfect upgrade, didn't need to fix anything afterwards.

theRealBassist ,

I get the gist of what Opnsense is from the name, but what are some of the practical benefits for a small home labber to use it over PFsense?

theRealBassist OP ,

So, right now I’m trying the system crontab instead of my user crontab.

Just to reiterate from my post, however, I have tried the full path. I was giving example paths. I should have been more explicit that by just “using dot” I meant using relative and absolute paths.

All paths have been full paths from the get go, though I did try cd-ing into the folder and running it with a relative path. My hope at this point is that it’s somehow a permissions issue as my storage setup is a bit odd with TrueNAS Scale running as a VM on ProxMox. Permissions with docker are usually hell, and I have to run literally everything that touches my NAS as root to get the permissions to play nicely, so it would make sense here that it’s just the permissions being upset and preventing access to the files.

I set a backup to run on the hour, so I’ll report back with whatever happens.

theRealBassist OP ,

I have edited /etc/crontab with the following 0 * * * * * root /mnt/nas/freshrss/backups/backup.sh. After waiting for the crontab to fire off, nothing happened.

theRealBassist OP ,

Yes, you should never use sudo inside a users crontab. If you want to run as root then use the system crontab.

I appreciate the advice! I had never really heard about the distinction between the system crontab and user crontabs. While it makes sense in retrospect, I am entirely self-taught about this stuff, and nowhere I had looked had ever mentioned that there were two separate crontabs.

I would also encourage looking at systemd timers

Do you happen to know of a good resource to learn about those off the top of your head? I appreciate the suggestion!

theRealBassist OP ,

The crontab that is found at /etc/crontab very specifically states that it has a user field. I will readily admit that I might be misunderstanding it, but that feels pretty explicit to me.

Been using ASAP Launcher since like 2015-16. Never had a good reason to change tbh.
