    Would you want art to be unfindable because scraping for AI image generation happens? It's a solution looking for problems.

  • NAS, Home Servers, and where do I even start?
  • +1 for Proxmox, has been a fun experience as there are plenty of resources and helper scripts to get you off the ground, jellyfin was the first thing I migrated from my PC, hardware encoding may give you a bit of a tussle but nothing unsolveable. Also note Proxmox is Debian under the hood, so you may find it easy to work with. I looked into unraid, it seems great if all you're doing for the most part is storage, if you want Linux containers and virtual machines, proxmox js your bet.

    I got a small 4 bay 2U server from a friend on the cheap, 1000$ should get you relatively nice new or slightly older used hardware. Even just a PC with a nice amount of drive bays will get you started. And drives are cheap, a raid 1 setup was one of the things I did.

    In the end I'll likely get a separate NAS rack server just to segregate functions, but as of now I simply have a Proxmox LXC mounted to my NAS drives and runs samba to expose them.

    Tailscale is a nice set and forget solution for VPN access, I ended up going the route of getting an SSL certified domain and beefing up my firewall a bit. The bit I've messed with it it certainly has a learning curve greater than openvpn, but is much more hardened and versatile.

    As for pihole, I've found AdGuard Home to be just about a suitable replacement, and can be installed along openwrt, though I have a bit of an unconventional router with 512MB of RAM so YMMV

  • Books vs Show
  • There are some notable differences in events especially in season 5-6/book 6. I had watched the show first, but I would say finish book 6, then watch the show for some nice imagery for the last 3 books.

    Without spoilers: some of the characters of the books are omitted and made into (imo) stronger composite characters for the show who play slightly different roles than their book counterparts, but isn't largely consequential to the final books. It's more less your choice which medium you enjoy more, as book 1-5 and season 1-5 play out essencially the same.

  • Does anyone know what this flag means?
  • He's got it right, took me a second to parse but in a vacuum "save our children" doesn't have connotations with transgender individuals, but in our nonvacuum it lends plausible deniability as to what the true message is

    Edit: and I replied to the wrong comment lol, we're all in agreement regardless

  • logical rule
  • Its not quite the Gucci logo, and I couldn't find anything on the LGB using it so I had presumed the exclusionists couldn't be bothered to be original in any capacity, or OP used that to signify the rainbow profit facade. Regardless I lol'd

  • The economy is thriving under Biden. So why don’t Americans believe it?
  • Instead of complaining about the obvious disconnect between metrics and real world, often regional CoL, etc etc (oh and cost of medical care). Here's a simple solution:

    Raise federal minimum wage, it's been a good decade and a bit since it went up from $5/h, the dollar has only inflated oh about 45% since 2009

  • Group Message Card/Dashboard?

    Hello! Home assistant has been a blast to set up, however it seems as though there's no straightforward way to handle messaging between users in the app.

    I came across a little about text_input fields which makes me think it would be possible to tinker something together, all I would like is a simple card that stores some 10 messages shared between my users without SMS and only in HA.

    If anyone else is interested I'd be happy to share a blueprint or whatever it ends up as

    OpenWRT gateway with TP-Link brand access points

    Hello, I have a grievance and need a proper solution. It seems that TP-Link's Deco mesh WiFi APs don't tag the three SSIDs to vlans (and they see no operational issue with this), and I would like to make the most use out of the "iot" network they provide to separate smart devices from my own. I could do by IP and assign static routes to such devices, but I was hoping something would be possible in router mode, though im unfamiliar with how such a structure works.

    Edit: may not matter to include I have a couple M5 units and an x60

    Any other suggestions (including other brand mesh WiFi units, most especially supporting openwrt) are appreciated

    Copilot misses the question, elaborates on topic I was speaking aloud instead.

    Was using my SO's laptop, I had been talking (not searching, or otherwise typing) about some VPN solutions for my homelab, and had the curiosity to use the new big copilot button and ask what it can do. The beginning of this context was actually me asking if it can turn off my computer for me (it cannot) and I ask this.

    Very unnerved, I hate to be so paranoid to think that it actually picked up on the context of me talking, but again: SO's laptop, so none of my technical search history to pull off of.

    I'm doing my part!

    Was recovering an old virtual machine onto a new box and was shocked to see 9,999, I presume thats an upper limit in the UI. Dune (2021) for those curious

    Now wheres my crossbones flag?
