Hell, I’d love to see them try their hand at an explanation before the AI text vomit. As long as it’s mostly readable, I’d rather it be a bit stilted but honest rather than this crap.

The only April fools joke I really encountered yesterday was modded Minecraft refused to launch until I changed the date to today. Too bad I didn’t figure it out until late in the day and my kid was upset they didn’t get to play because the stupid thing stopped loading right before the main menu

Another vote for borg, I use a script and cron on the systems that aren’t in my proxmox host to trigger it and write to my NAS. There are windows GUIs for it, and you could also use WSL to run it.

But imo, backups should always be push, not pull. Makes it much easier to manage from my experience

But going with more smaller drives gives you higher IO and the ability to have more concurrent failures before disaster. Losing a disk during resilvering is horrible when you’re only running with 1 redundant drive normally.

am curious what exactly makes it fall short?

The podcast playback is sorely lacking. It can’t play more than one episode without having to select the episode, which makes playlists kinda pointless unless it’s just following one storyline in a podcast that runs more than one concurrently. It also doesn’t seem to support defaulting listing order other than newest, and the next episode is always the latest, despite the current playback order

Only the webUI works out of the box, if you want the phone app you need to compile it yourself.

Damn, that’s a nonstarter for anyone non-technical

Seconding the guide, that sounds amazing. Plus, jack handy was one of my favorite bits from old SNL

I should set up that bitwarden feature that lets people ask for access and they get it if you don’t respond in a set amount of time.

Ah, yeah I feel that. Been dealing with it in my own setup, and sometimes they get annoyed when stuff gets done on my time 😅

I’ve thought about deploying overseerr to take some of that off me, but I’m lazy…

What’s wrong with your setup that makes you have to touch your stack constantly?

I have radarr and sonarr, and I only ever touch them to add media. Hell, I use prowlarr more than either of the others just cuz I don’t have any kind of management for other media I partake in

I don’t have the attention span to draw out a Pepe Silva looking graph (even if I periodically have to try to explain it to newbies haha)

It sounds like your ubiquity and your ISP router are on the same LAN segment, which is not a good config.

You should never have multiple DHCP servers configured unless you’re intentionally split braining your vlan (only ever done that for HA purposes and using half of the pool on each). Im pretty sure you need to have your ISP connected to your cloud gateway, and all of your gear connected to the ubiquity. Your ISP router should only see your ubiquity, and that’s likely a good part of the reason you can’t see all the DHCP leases on your ubiquity gear.

Were I in your position, I’d probably disconnect everything and slowly reconnect stuff one piece at a time until you trip over what’s causing your issue. I doubt this is the case, but you could also have another DHCP server running on something you forgot about causing issues. Seen that many times before when doing small business network overhauls.

I tried this for a bit last year, and I never got it to work. I’m sure it was user error, but I’m super glad I got a new kit before shit blew up.

Might have to track down the bad kit I had and give this another try for giggles.

Agreed. I spent a bit of time writing out a script for similar functionality for one of our business units, but I never was able to figure out how to convert excel sheets to a PDF to be able to merge them in the allotted time, so it just doesn’t support them lol.

But I can see why it wouldn’t have an API, since the whole deal is it stays in your browser, and an API would mean sending the files to the server.

Personally, yes. Everything is behind NPM and SSL cert management is handled by certbot.

Professionally? LOL NO. Shit is manual and usually regulated to overnight staff. Been working on getting to the point it is automated though, but too many bespoke apps for anyone to have cared enough to automate the process before me.

I’ve been dreading this switch for months (I still am, but I have been, too!) considering this year and next year will each double the amount of cert work my team has to do. But, I’m hopeful that the automation work I’m doing will pay off in the long run.

How do you 3d print a rubber gasket/seal?

Given how cheap flash storage has been for years, this is an intentional design choice. They wanted it to be server side only, likely for data collection purposes.

Gods, I fucking hate this so much. I’ve got a ninja blender that the lid seal is broken, and the lid alone is like 50-70% of the cost of a whole new unit. It’s ridiculous how impossible it is to find replacement parts for simple things anymore.
