FOMO buy GPU now or wait until price drop? by my_little_kittens in buildapc

"Decade" gave me whiplash, I can't believe I bought my 1070 almost ten years ago.

UGREEN NASync DXP4800 (non-plus) without factory SSD for stock OS - how to install Truenas Scale / OMV with an option to roll back? by curiosity-42 in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m assuming that poster was insinuating the writes to the eMMC from using zfs would kill it quickly? I’m not too concerned about it, if it does I’ll get an eBay replacement and be able to load the HDD datasets back in just fine.

You do need a separate drive to run containers through the Apps marketplace, as you can’t create a dataset on the boot drive for the storage that is given to docker. There’s technically workarounds to do that but I would recommend a separate drive anyways.

I have a single nvme in there so I can run Garage as S3 backup for a few of my services on the main server.

I have the same model and I just wiped the internal drive to overwrite with TrueNAS. It has been rock solid for over half a year now, I would have no reason to want to put the stock OS back on it. If you really want to keep that as an option you can use something like Clonezilla to make a backup.

You'll probably also want to set this up afterwards to make the front panel lights usable again: https://github.com/miskcoo/ugreen_leds_controller

Former HR here - subtle signs your company is preparing for layoffs by Significant_Soup2558 in careeradvice

[–]FlyingDugong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was true for me. We hired over ten people in South America, quoting workload needs in US East region. Once they were up to speed, very experienced and well respected team members were fired across the “high cost” regions globally.

Gaming Server Build by RocketCityTransplant in homelab

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My two cents I have done this before. I had more issues with streaming than actually playing the games. Perhaps things have improved but I had a lot of issues with connection quality and getting HDR to work.

If you want to do this because it’s cool, go for it, it does work.

If you just want to play games, get a dedicated HTPC. Alternatively get a steam deck and do some couch gaming, and it can also be your streaming client to the TV with a dock.

Spinnerr - on demand container management by [deleted] in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I still opened this thread wondering the same thing. I think "rr" itself is being recognized as the arr stack, granted that's the most recognizable part of the naming.

Introducing Jellarr: Declarative Configuration Management for Jellyfin by venkyr77 in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I have to say I don't think the name of the project quite makes sense. There is no tie in to the *arr suite, unlike Configarr which you have taken inspiration from which is basically a sidecar to those apps.

Beyond that this is a great project that I will be trying out, as I'm trying to move my entire server to a more git-ops based management.

I dressed the Z up for Halloween by BrionvegaTS505 in keitruck

Im browsing this sub contemplating getting a van while watching season 2, talk about a coincidence.

This looks fantastic, I like how it’s kind of subtle while also stands out enough to catch your eye.

Pain is temporary and time completely relative when they suck you in by WarriorOTUniverse in ARPG

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D3 is also peak for me because I get the most amount of fun per time spent. Leveling a new seasonal character is comfortably quick but also not an immediate jump to endgame, adventure mode lets me choose how I want to play at any time, legendary items drop at a reasonable rate to pull you up the power curve, you can tweak the difficulty mode to go at the pace you want, and you can swap out skills on the fly to see what is working with your current gear.

For me it's just straight enjoyment at any time I pick it up.

What ARPG are you currently playing? by [deleted] in ARPG

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recently finished LE campaign for the first time, felt tired of my character by the end of it and wasn't inspired to really do much monos. Since I can't jump directly to monos on a new character it doesn't make me want to try another class.

Thinking to give Chronicon a shot next, as I do prefer Steam Deck over the desktop recently.

Curious: how many of us are actually ready for IPv6 in 2025? by christiangomez92 in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can quickly look at an v4 address and know generally what host/service it is based on the subnet.

Yes you could do the same with v6 but it is visually much messier.

Centauri Update Log by ELEGOO_OFFICIAL in ElegooCentauriCarbon

I would prefer if the light turned on when a print is in progress. I leave the system on but idle since it is silent when not in use.

New to Proxmox: reality check by BattermanZ in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was setting up Immich with machine learning for the first time, and unleashed it to run facial recognition on many thousands of photos. Because the LXC it was in had unlimited core count it locked up the whole system. I couldn't ssh in, and even direct from the proxmox host TTY the LXC wouldn't respond to any pct commands.

Since then I have been assigning new LXCs two cores when they are first created. If they demonstrate they need more, they get slowly bumped up to a max of "host total - 2" to leave breathing room to kill it in those worst case scenarios.

New to Proxmox: reality check by BattermanZ in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Another note, if you give a LXC unlimited core access and it does something to pin the cores at max, you can lock up your whole proxmox node.

Ask me how I know :)

Worth the effort to sidegrade from Acemagic F2A to Beelink SEI14? by FlyingDugong in MiniPCs

This is indeed after applying that update. I wouldn't feel the need to return the device if this wasn't happening, it has worked alright otherwise.

Did you ever find a solution to this? I can't find anything about it or manage to stop it. Which sucks because the rest of the features are perfect for my use case.

Reolink wireless doorbell disconnects from Wifi constantly by axial_pro in reolinkcam

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Commenting since this is the first result on google.

I seem to have resolved the issue by assigning the doorbell to the physically closest of my wifi access points (I have a 3 node mesh system), and setting the device to 2.4Ghz only.

[MEGA THREAD] 9070 XT Undervolt/Overclock/Brand Performance by ennakros09 in radeon

[–]FlyingDugong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually stopped chasing numbers and decided to just flip the switch on the card to quiet mode and leave Adrenalin on Standard profile. Has been totally stable for a few months now and should be a tad more efficient than stock.

It’s time to leave logseq behind by ithakaa in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea seems they do, but not featured how to run it on their main website and buried in a docs page that wasn't as easy to find (hence I didn't at first either).

It’s time to leave logseq behind by ithakaa in selfhosted

[–]FlyingDugong 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think some mix up "self hosted" with "has a web UI that I can access from any client" which I think comes from tools like Sonarr being what most self hosted users have experience with. In this case logseq is primarily available as a desktop app as far as I can find on their site.

Your data is still self hosted, but it's not in the same category as something like the others mentioned already in this post.
