The writer doesn’t want to rely on others services, but uses AI for artwork?

Correct yeah, you’d still need a way on the host to check if the mount is ready though before starting the service. Or you could just do a fixed delay time.

For subdirectories it’s more complex as each application needs to be configured properly too, so you’ll need to go into transmission and tell it what subdirectory you’re using.

Or switch to subdomains as that just works without any extra config, and still let’s you use one port for everything.

You should be able to modify the docker service to wait until a mount is ready before starting. That would be the standard way to deal with that kind of thing.

For what it’s worth when you set up your site on cloudflare you get to choose how strict you want security to be and what URLs it applies to, or just disable it and use it only as a CDN. Or even disable routing entirely and use it only as your DNS.

It would be nice if they were more clear that enabling some features might block legitimate users though.

Yeah gotta inspect the traffic and block whatever hostnames it uses.

Some did leave, just not nearly as many compared to the numbers that claimed they would.

Thats when I left and made a Lemmy account instead.

Maybe block the DoH endpoint and in theory the device might fall back to normal DNS, dunno if that would work.

Sounds like poor design on the manufacturers part if a $20 microprocessor and radio can break into a car.

There is barely any overhead with a Linux VM, a Debian minimal install only uses about 30MB of RAM! As an end user i find performance to be very similar with either setup.

Zen fork is great.

I run debian on everything, so I set up unattended-upgrades for security updates and basically forget about it. Docker updates are also automatic with Komodo, just make sure databases are pinned to a major version.

For monitoring my services I use Uptime Kuma, and get an alert if a service goes down so I can fix it.

Been pretty solid for years now. Things get rebooted every month or two when I do a Proxmox upgrade and reboot the host.

I can’t imagine the bitrate was high enough to make much difference in quality… But I don’t know what the technical details were.

In the case of these ones you just remove the LXC/VM it created.

Yeah that is bizarre, maybe malware or a malicious browser addon?

Install Debian as a server with no GUI, install docker on it and start playing around.

You can use Komodo or Portainer if you want a webUI to manage containers easily.

If you put any important data on it, set up backups first, follow the 3-2-1 rule by having at least 2 backups in place.

The problem with stuff like yunohost is when it breaks you have no idea how to fix it, because it hides everything in the background.

They haven’t locked themselves to Google hardware by choice, it’s the only hardware with the security features they need so far.

Remember graphenes goal is a very secure OS, not just a more private degoogled one, for that there’s /e/os and other options that support more hardware.

Or the lie that it’s full self driving in general.

Sounds like NFS might still be the way to go for you.

For backups personally I use Restic and connect over SFTP via SSH, since that’s just built in and doesn’t need any configuration.

For more traditional file sharing I use WebDAV with SFTPGo, since I need windows and android compatibility too, and webdav is pretty easy to setup and use.

And I also use Syncthing for keeping some directories in sync between devices.

Not with Bluehost.
