  • I share a similar stance on general street surveillance by the likes of Ring. But on the flip side I understand that people may want to extend the scope of security cameras onto the street due to vehicle vandalism for example, so I make sure to smile my sweet smile when I notice them.

    Thanks to @Charger8232@lemmy.ml & @irmadlad@lemmyis.fun for yet another perfect example of what I love about Fediverse, this is why it's so much better than "the other place"

  • Yup. It stops on my machine & my photos are organised how I want them organised. Immich is privacy respecting & the learning is performing an actual useful task in facial recognition & I believe contextual search.

    I dont trust Microsoft to do either & I'd certainly not want them organising anything.

  • I forwarded this to my neighbour who is really into self hosting, particularly home automation stuff - has a pretty awesome Home Assistant set up. First thing they said? "But I'm 70, this only goes to 69"

    I told him in that case he must dismantle his self hosted servers immediately 😁

  • ...a single plank costs 70 quid and I have no car at the moment and timber merchants don't typically deliver wood to your door

    I recently purchased a single OSB board & the local. Wickes branch delivered it for about a fiver. Delivery service was new to me. Whether they will have the length/type of wood you're after is another matter but worth knowing.

  • For me its not worth the hit on battery. Mind you my phone screen is 3088x1440 WQHD+ capable yet I set that to 720p. Sure, the image is a tiny bit better at higher res but for me I'd rather have a stronger battery life than a marginally better looking image on such a relatively small screen.

  • Late arrival but in case it helps:

    I'm 100% self taught. I'd never used Linux before I got my first Pi & struggled to get Nextcloudpi working, which I did eventually. But support came to an end so maintenance was going to become an issue so I had to learn.

    I found this excellent video on how to read Docker requirements & apply them step by step into Portainer. He explains slowly & methodically exactly what he is doing & why.

    Portainer is a method of handling Docker stacks/containers via a web UI. Both Docker & Portainer are simple to install.

    It's easier to use Docker Compose files and/or .env (environment variable) files (both are even simpler to deploy through Portainer) but this video taught me what was going on & gave me confidence to have a go. What attracted me to Docker is you can easily remove stacks/containers if/when you make a mess rather than wiping the drive & start again, which is how I went about things initially.

    This gave me the tools to set up Nginx Proxy Manager & I never looked back. Highly recommend a robust backup solution as stuff will inevitably go wrong along the way (I see Borg, Restic mentioned often, I went for Kopia).

    I can't recommend highly enough making detailed notes along the way. I rely on my Joplin notes all the time.

    One more tip. Once you start using Docker, dont fall into the trap of using the "latest" tag. If you know the version number its far easier to re-deploy if an update is bad.

    Enjoy your new time consuming, teeth clenching, frustrating ...and rewarding hobby 👍

  • Save notes? Joplin has a configurable backup plugin built in. From memory you need to go to Options >Plugins & enable it.

    Edit: I just saw you meant sync. Several ways with Joplin. Been syncing through Nextcloud with WebDAV which has worked great syncing between several devices ever since I started using Joplin. On Android you need to keep the screen on during initial sync which can take a while but after that sync is a couple of seconds.

  • The City of Arts and Sciences is an amazing place set near one end of Turia Gardens, a former river bed. We hired bikes & rode through Turia Gardens. Valencia itself is a brilliant city with some great beaches.

    When I visited, the tram lines to City of Arts and Sciences weren't complete, I think due to lack of funds. Glad to see they were able to finish, thanks for sharing.

  • I finally got round to buying the Beelink EQ14 I'd promised myself. Sips electricity & handles 4k content. Can't comment re usage as I havent got round to setting it up yet. I believe it shipped with Win11 but I'll be putting linux on it

  • You can't always simply VPN around it. I applied for a job via one of the popular job sites. Tried to log back in to the job site a week later only to to find my account had been blocked until I provide proof of ID to a US based third party company ...I'm in Europe. Spoiler alert: I did not provide proof of ID & so have no idea whether or not I was a suitable applicant for the job.

    Guess i won't be job hunting through that site again. The whole thing is farcical.

  • Mr Inbetween. Brilliant from the start to the very last scene. Everyone who watches it thinks its superb. Getting them to actually start watching it is hard work.

    Love/Hate. Irish gangster show. I felt it got better each season. Loved the unhinged & dangerously unpredictable Fran (Peter Coonan).

    First few seasons of Italian mob show Gomorrah were amazing but I think some were put off by it being in Italian language (fine with me as I'm an English speaker but watch everything including English language shows with subtitles on)

  • I remember looking at some docs about upgrading versions, but I don't know how to tell which version I have.

    • User icon (top right) > ≡ menu (top left) to open side bar. Current version is displayed at the bottom of the side bar

    As a general rule when installing anything with Docker Compose, rather than using "latest" I prefer to specify a version as it makes it easier to roll back should i find issues with an update.

  • My summer project was to build racking & organise my garage & ive just recently finished it. As with the rest of our house Homebox has been great, your work with Homebox is very much appreciated thank you.
