To each their own. I love plain 'ol vanilla Arch.

I use the same naming convention as you for stacks, but since I’m running a docker swarm I have to mount the NFS in the exact same way on all my nodes, which are just 3 R-Pi 4s. It’s a little janky in that if the NFS goes offline all my services go along with it. Traefik works really well with a swarm, especially when you have it set to auto pick up any services and proxy them.

I’ve had nzbgeek for years.

Vinyl records, analog tube amplifiers, a good pair of speakers 🤌

Honestly though digital compression now is so good it probably sounds the same.

That’s a good point. The model weights could be voltage levels instead of digital representations. Lots of audio tech uses analog for better fidelity.I also read that there’s a startup using particle beams for lithography. Exciting times.

Well I guess I’m Doomed then.

When the Arch wiki was getting DDOS’d a few weeks ago I got a local copy from the AUR that was pretty handy.

Congrats on the setup. Is that proxmox I see in the background?

+1 for FreshRSS, I’ve only been using it for about six months but I’m constantly tweaking my config just because I like to play around with it.

I remember when I first stumbled across this manual I was trying to look up a quick awk command and wound up reading the whole thing. It’s really one of the better GNU manuals.

Totally agree, but at this point Microsoft is so ingrained in the US federal government that it’s practically a branch of it.

That sounds like a very functional and rational solution to the problem of age verification. But age verification isn’t the ultimate goal, it’s mass surveillance, which your solution doesn’t work for.

I’ve been really happy with Fresh-RSS. Someone else on here put me onto about 6 months ago and it’s changed how I consume news.

I find the most time consuming part was/is curating my feed but with tools like RSS-Bridge I can really get fine grain control on what makes it through.

On your LLM summarizer question, yes they have several plug-ins. I’ve recently started piping the whole feed into Gemini and telling it to pick the top 5 and summarize. But I do that in bash and emacs :

I build smart playlists for Navidrome with Symfonium on Android or Feishen on desktop, then export to server to get them into Navidrome. I also have been playing around with local AI generating smart playlists with mixed success. The file structure is very simple.

Navidrome just announced plug-ins last release. I think an AI playlist maker would be pretty fun.

I’ve never heard of h2c but it seems useful. I use docker swarm with a few nodes. But for internal communication all the containers can communicate with each other using docker’s built-in DNS.

I run Traefik in front of Caddy for a few different applications including Nextcloud.

I also use Traefik, and once you have it set up it’s really great. Getting it set up is a different story. My advice would be to follow the install guide as closely as you can and don’t start adding to it until it’s stable.

You don’t need to own a domain to use a reverse proxy by the way, you just need to configure your router to recognize whatever domain you choose and route it to the container.

Lately, I’ve been playing around with Tailscale and you don’t even need a domain or open ports to connect to your containers from outside your local network.

Damn that hits the nail on the head. Especially that analogy of watching a robot lift weights on your behalf then claiming gains. It’s causing brain atrophy.

Well I would recommend Akami/Linode because I’ve had some form of an instance for close to a decade and any downtime has been my own fault. I did just start playing with one of their premium compute linodes for some experiments. I have had Nextcloud in a shared resources node and it wasn’t bad, but it was slow. Currently I just run AIO on my home server mapped to the NAS for storage. If I set it up again I think I would do the same on Linode but it is pricey.

Did you know openwrt makes their own router now. It’s called the openwrt one. They’re not had for the price, mines been pretty solid. And they have a bunch upgrade options.

I’m not really sure why it was such a small sample size. It definitely casts doubt on some of their conclusions. I also have issues with some methodology used. I think a better study that came out a week or two ago was the one that showed visible neurological decline from AI use.
