You don’t really need a self hosted app, you can write a script to do the following:
Then create a new scheduled task to run the script every week.
The result is that you have a deadman switch with a weeks delay
Unless you recreate file X every week, directory Y will be deleted.
This is a very simplistic example, but it would be decently difficult to figure out.
I am a hobby photographer and usually take a few hundred GBs of photos every year (I shoot in JPG+RAW), I have other media as well, but I am mainly concerned about my photos.
I have them currently saved to a single HDD in my computer, which has worked ok, but I have seen bitrot in some files…
So I was reliable storage, currently thinking of a zraid1 with four normal disks, one parity, one hot spare and one cold spare, I am looking for it to last a minimum of ten years with normal maintenance.
I will probably put 64GB ram in the server, and possibly an SSD cache over time
I am currently building a home server, this project timeline has been extended as I had no idea hard drives would be THAT expensive at the capacities I want…
I do have an old computer that is not in use, but I don’t want to run a Bulldozer plattform…
So I am basing my new server on the AMD Ryzen 4600G, should be fine
Interesting, I have to look into that, I am taking it slow, and will buy storage drives over a few months to spread the cost out, so I have time to think about it
I am also working on building a new NAS, I didn’t realize it was going to be so damned expensive though…
Currently I am thinking of going for ZFS with six drives, four pure storage, one parity and one hot spare, I would also need another drive as a cold spare…
I am interested in ZFS due to it’s bitrot protection, I have already seen some of my photos affected by bitrot…
I wonder how well that would run on a 700MHz ARM CPU with a maximum of 512 MB RAM…
I don’t agree that these are an eyesore, they are not as pretty as a tree, no, but disgustingly ugly? Nah.
Seems like a decent idea if you have an over developed location where you can’t plant a tree.
This is the first time I am hearing about that site, I have just not been in the scene much… could it be a temporary problem?
Sounds fantastic, I hope that you can find a community like that again.
Vetting the post history is probably the only realistic way of doing it, it is time consuming, I am sad that it is needed, but if that is what it it takes it is at least doable.
I wish you and all women online good luck in finding a community like that, everyone needs a good community to enjoy!
There is no resonable way to do that.
The only way I could see it being done while perserving some kind of anonymity would be to have a defederated instance, where members are invite-only, where members can invite their friends to join, there by verifying that there are no men joining.
Unfortunately, there is no good way of verifying the gender of a person that you don’t meet outside of a forum.
Since you have the equipment at home you can just get a power meter and measure the computer and a router to see which uses most power over two hours.
Make sure to install the baseline for the computer before the test so it is fairly representative
I get that, it was just something I noticed when looking to build a NAS a few months ago, I was considering the power usage over time when compared with a Synology, and I seem to recall the Synology being much more power efficient, and when I saw OP talking about using a full X86 machine for an AP, I just thought it sounded very inefficient.
Before you start with this project, consider the power use of a full X86 system even at idle and compare that to a standard router.
If you are looking to run this as an access point permanently, the cost of power may add up.
I am not saying that you shouldn’t do it, but take it into account before deciding.
I didn’t realize that, and YT didn’t tell me.
Excellent! That would have been good information to add to the initial post
As a non developer, what advantages does this provide over Matrix?

Yesterday I revived my old Pixelfed account, and I have set myself a challenge, upload one photo every day for a month.
I have plenty of photos from the last decade to pick from
I don’t know if this will mean that my account will be active in the long run, but I’ll give it an honest try.
I posted this earlier in the thread:

I am currently in the final phase of building my first own built NAS.
(I have an oooooold Intel NAS, that I don’t really use anymore…)
I need to populate the case with storage drives, I need to add an Intel GPU, a 10gbit NIC, and possibly add an HBA to add two SSDs for VM storage.
Currently I have a:
I am running TrueNAS on it, that was just installed to make sure that it is working, but I am planning on running it going forward, as I am mostly looking to run the server as a filserver.
