How does Hetzner work? I just looked at their storage box prices, and it seems too good to be true? €40/mo for 20TB. And they break it down to €0.0651/hr. Does that mean I could run the backups only when needed and pay less than €40/mo?
I have a NAS with a couple of SSDs configured in a ZFS mirror that backs up to a Raid Z2 storage pool on the same NAS. Again, on that NAS, I run Paperless-ngx in a docker container. Finally, I use the iOS app Swift Paperless to upload documents to Paperless-ngx. All done over Tailscale.
My load bearing NAS has a lot of redundancy but no offsite backups so I still keep some important documents in the cloud. I’m saving up for another NAS that I can keep at a family members house but prices are insane right now :/
If you can follow the 3-2-1 storage rule without using the cloud, that’s awesome. However, the upfront cost can be expensive depending on how much you are storing. Just do the best you can using whatever you have available to you, even if that means using iCloud as part of your setup.
The house I bought had one of these installed already. Works great with the homeassistant ZWA-2 antenna.
That’s unacceptable and infuriating. I started going to my wife’s appointments because of shit like this. I don’t know if it’s because my wife wasn’t advocating enough for herself or if the doctor was shitty but all I do is sit there and repeat my wife’s concerns in different words when I think I need to. If I’m not satisfied with an answer, I just keep asking questions. She’s getting the care she deserves now.
This is coming from a good place and I don’t mean any disrespect but it sounds like your wife needs a mammogram. Do something about it; you only have each other.
No, you actually caught be at the perfect time, the transfer to my temporary pool is almost done. I was just curious how inheritance worked on a pool but after giving it some thought, your recommendation makes more sense; turn it on when I know I need it vs turn it off when I know I don’t. Thanks for the advice.
Let’s say I did turn on compression on root. I can’t then turn it off on a per file system basis where it isn’t needed?
Yeah I’m not excited about the write and rebuild times being slower but the read times should still be pretty good. Considering I don’t have any more space for drives in my server and I don’t know how crazy hdd drive prices will get in the next 12 months, the guaranteed 2 drive failure resiliency is more important to me at the moment. My current 1 drive failure resiliency, 2 if I’m lucky, has me worried. My backups are on shucked drives and I don’t want to be put in a situation where I have to rely on them to restore 😅
Thank you for this
Fair criticism. I just don’t have a lot of free time. I can invest in Element but I wanted to crowd source information to see if it was worth it or if there was an easier way. It doesn’t get much easier than Docker
Out of curiosity, what makes it better?
A quick search says it’s a package manger for kubernetes. Besides plex, everything I selfhost is just for me. Would you say helm/kubernetes is worth looking into for a hobbyist who doesn’t work in the tech field?
I’d love to but it’s a chicken and egg thing. Regular people don’t understand bitcoin let alone monero. On top of that, you still have fees for converting from a currency to monero and again from monero to a currency, so there’s still a middle man :/
I understand your view and sympathize deeply but there is a lot wrong in the world today and if I have to divert energy somewhere to try and change something, Patreon’s 10/90 split is at the bottom of the list for me at the moment. Regular working class people aren’t getting that good of a deal at the jobs they work at. I’m not even talking 90/10, just getting their .01% of the profits in a 1000 person org for their contribution would probably be life changing.
You are right but our frames of reference are different.
I wouldn’t say these services are nothing. Are they worth 10%? Eh.
A 90/10 split for content creators who otherwise wouldn’t know how to build and operate their own platform doesn’t sound like a terrible deal. It’s not amazing but if there were better options, Patreon may not be so popular.
Edit: I want to clarify. Patreon is a for profit company who has apparently tried raising prices already and back tracked. Eventually, Patreon will try and squeeze out more profit from the creators and the user base will be big enough that Patreon will have the leverage to do so; we’ve all seen it before. I’m not saying Patreon is a good company, I’m not saying they won’t be dicks in the future, I’m not saying the system as it is, is good. I’m only saying 10% isn’t a bad deal when so many other options are worse (ex. Apple taking 30%)
Fair enough
What’s wrong with Patreon? They advertise a 10% fee. It may be a little more complicated than that but 10% seems pretty reasonable considering the services they offer.
I didn’t realize it was that old. Whoever is maintaining it is doing a good job making it look modern
NetNewsWire - free, open source, FreshRSS integration
Agreed. Debian with docker, flatpak, and/or distrobox is solid
I think I see what you’re saying. My gripe is that if I want a laptop/tablet with a great ARM chip, with long battery life, my options all force me to use one of two operating systems that I’d prefer not to use for ideological reasons. If I’m forced to use one, because I want an ARM device, I might as well use the one that has the best hardware. M5s are right around the corner and the MacBook Airs are really competitive.
If I misinterpreted your question, then no, as far as I’m aware, none of the M series has FULL support. The M1s and M2s are pretty close though.
Oh got it. Thanks!
