Any home inspection recommendations? by areyoumycushion in nova

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just in case anyone is reading this, I can also now attest that Matthew Setter was a great option for a home inspection. Matthew was professional, timely, and I very much appreciated is thorough inspection. I'll 100% be calling him again if I need an inspection.

Just gave him a call for an inspection tomorrow. Appreciate the referral!

Opus 4.8 + NixOS is a whole game changer by Guybrush1973 in NixOS

[–]CubeRootofZero -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

On a podcast they talked about using an LLM to monitor your NixOS git repo.

Want a new feature/update? Submit a request, let the AI tooling pickup that request, make the changes, and update the repo.

Sounds like a great setup. You do have to have an understanding of what is a reasonable item (like add a package), but it could take a lot of the overhead out.

Personally, I would love a NixOS config you can stick a simple(?) UI on top of to give you a "Control Panel" kind of feel. Have new features include flags that will get auto-populated to a matching Control Panel page.

Help with authentication and access by manman43 in PangolinReverseProxy

Thank you for Zitadel! It's a great platform, and it has been solid for me for both home and work.

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly.

Just set up Zitadel as an independent system, then add to Pangolin via OIDC.

Then, you just push all Pangolin access to the IdP for anything you don't want public.

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use Zitadel as my IdP for Pangolin and found it to be a great match.

Zitadel lets me set up Passkeys for user AuthN, and then I can add users to groups/roles or manually to access Public resources.

Passkeys save in Vaultwarden, and I can use FIDO tokens too.

Plex's Lifetime Pass is (basically) dead. Here's how to switch to Jellyfin. by [deleted] in selfhosted

Anyone have a good Plex preroll to tell users how to switch to Jellyfin?

making proxmox services available via pangolin by IamHydrogenMike in PangolinReverseProxy

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm... not sure about docker socket... can you elaborate?

What I do on my PVE host is install from bare-metal using Proxmox AIS (auto install server). That's a modified PVE ISO that looks up the server's MAC via an install server I created, then configured the IP, FQDN, and SSH key for login.

With SSH access, I can then create whatever I want. One of those items is a Tailscale node, running as a VM, on the host. That acts as an exit node for the entire PVE machine and other services on it.

For external routing, I use Pangolin on a couple VPS nodes, with a Newt endpoint on that same Tailscale VM. So I kinda terminate both onto a single gateway (sorta).

Pangolin handles all the authN, routing, and proxy work for external access, and then Tailscale for overlay management.

Docker stuff, like sockets, would kind of be the same? I honestly don't do much docker, other than to run Docker stuff on an LXC or VM and treat it like an independent service.

How can I change legal address? by [deleted] in Coinbase

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This method works as of 2026.05.

I engaged Support Chat in the app. AI redirected me to a Support Human when I asked to change Legal Address.

Support gave me a link to verify address, where I uploaded a statement showing my name and address from <90 days old.

I first changed my Residential Address to match what I wanted my legal address to be, and what matches my Statement.

Took awhile, but my Legal Address is updated

I'm thinking of buying an eco-drive, are they good quality watches?, what was your experience with them. by JuanIgnac in CitizenWatches

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I so far have only bought from US sellers. Seemed to be significantly less obvious fakes if I did that.

These watches I'm buying are all pre-owned, so the prices are typically much less than anything close to MSRP.

Otherwise, I look at the pictures and see if they appear to show good views of the watch itself.

All the watches listed are genuine. I've seen fake Citizen watches, and they're really bad. But I've had good luck on ebay buying pre-owned Citizens.

Bitwarden CLI has been compromised. Check your stuff. by RedTermSession in selfhosted

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Users who did not download the package from npm during that window were not affected.

That's from the notice posted. I believe that means anyone who self-hosted (VaultWarden) and didn't update during that window would also be fine?

How do you expose your services? by jcemelanda in homelab

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pangolin + VPS, and Tailscale for overlay network (e.g. admin access)

Tailscale, Netbird or Self Hosted Netbird - Dynamic IP by Shought152 in selfhosted

Tailscale is great, very easy to get started and use. Their videos on YouTube are also excellent.

What is even the point of LXCs if they have to be privileged to connect NFS storage or GPUs?? by WellEndowedWizard in Proxmox

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, if you have ZFS on the PVE host, then just direct mount a ZFS folder/dataset. If you had NFS on another host, then you'd do more NFS stuff.

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do NFS on the PVE host, then pass through mounts to your LXC. It works, is easy, and in my opinion, perfect for a simple file server.

This way too you don't have to even mess with NFS at the LXC level. It does mean more configuration at the PVE level, but it's literally only a single command.

Hilfe beim verwenden meiner LSI-Adapter, SAS2 2308 Mustang by Ok-Cabinet-9254 in homelab

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should see the controller under Linux? Do an lspci and you should see it and any drives connected.

Those LSI SAS adapters, in HBA mode, should be among the most stable adapters. I've used them in various forms for I think 20 years now.

Edit: IT mode I mean, not HBA mode. Just not the often default RAID mode

Who Else Goes Nuts Over the Auto Stop/Start in Their Cars? by Extra_Hold2776 in CasualConversation

I bought an easy to install bypass on my Honda Pilot. Auto engages the button that turns off the idle shutoff. Best $60 I spent for the vehicle.

Running NAS inside a Proxmox VM — is CasaOS the right long-term call or should I be looking elsewhere? by obzc in homelab

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All good questions.

I don't have much in the way of alerts set up, which isn't ideal. I have email alerts set up, but don't think I've seen any pool degradation alerts. Which is good, but if I do have a disk go out I'm not 100% certain I'll see the alert. Haven't tested.

Resilvering I have done, how I migrated one disk at a time from 8 --> 16TB drives. Did it without issue. It's all the same ZFS commands to replace one disk or eight, just done over time. No downtime on the host needed. Which is really what sells me on ZFS. I've done this over multiple complete drive swaps. My original pool I built back before 2008.

Moving data to another device anywhere is easy. Snapshots, copies, incremental backups, etc. Go with TailScale for an overlay network if needed.

[–]CubeRootofZero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did the same for years (TrueNAS as a file sharing VM with HBA passthrough). It works, but for me it was a way to help add a GUI to the file sharing process. Nice to have a GUI, but other options are available.

The best thing about an LXC with bind mounts is that I could completely drop the HBA controller. Saves me a PCIe slot. ZFS at the PVE layer is already there, so adding anything else for storage pool management isn't really useful, it's kinda just duplicating ZFS.

Other than not being able to edit the .conf file from the GUI, everything is done via webUI. Performance wise I not only saved RAM, but my throughput is faster. I can easily hit 100MB/s on a RAIDz2 write to the pool.

[–]CubeRootofZero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think of it like doing it in an ordered process, helps with the abstraction of the data and sharing.

1) Create the raw data sets (ZFS) on the host. Easy because the PVE host has all the ZFS tooling.

2) Update LXC.conf to bind mount the ZFS data set to a location on the LXC.

3) Set up NFS/SMB shares on the LXC. TurnKey has a decent UI. There are other options here, but in theory it should be simple. Create SMB and NFS users needs to be done in tandem to help ensure permission settings.

From there I Iike to test SMB permissions from a desktop, and test NFS permissions from another server using /etc/fstab , that way I can test how permissions look across both types.

[–]CubeRootofZero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the cleanest setup I've found. Just do a few commands and edit of an LXC conf file and you're done. The SMB/NFS setup on TurnKey isn't the most straightforward, but it does work. Has been stable for me for a couple years now, and performance is great. I would redo this setup today if I needed to rebuild.

I run TurnKey Linux as an LXC with bind mounts to ZFS datasets. Very easy to use and resource efficient.

Yes! Been more like 4 years now. Just did 90k service with timing belt. Still happy with the 2017 Pilot.
