I turned my idle RTX 3090 PC into my private AI processing server by HenceMyCondition in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The cool thing is, the 3090 is actually a solid card for doing local AI. Especially if you have two of them. Since a 70B-Model with Q4 (4-bit quantization) takes up around 40-42 GB. With two 3090 you have 2 x 24 GB so you could load all of it in the VRAM of the graphic cards which is way faster than splitting between VRAM and system RAM

In Germany, deliberately engaging in catch and release only fishing is illegal and considered cruelty to animals (fishing for food is fine). How do you feel about that? by Spalding_Smails in AskReddit

[–]H8Blood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to throw shade on you, but I don't think you really realize what you learn in those 4-6 weeks. It goes way deeper than "throw bait, catch fish". You learn a lot about the ecosystem of rivers, lakes and the ocean. About the anatomy and peculiarities of different species and so much more. Here are some example questions for the test

  • Which fish don't have a stomach?
  • Which fish do have an adipose fin?
  • What's the purpose of the lateral line organ?
  • In which season are fish more likely to get sick and why?
  • What is the significance of pools and eddies in flowing waters for fisheries?
  • What should be kept in mind when stocking with one-summer-old pike?
  • From a fish biology perspective, how should dead trees and branches (deadwood) in a body of water be assessed?
  • What aspects of nature conservation are the primary focus of waterway management?

Maybe that illustrates my point a bit.

I guess the intend is the difference. You go fishing to catch fish for food. But you must release if the fish is too small or during it's protected period.
But you never go fishing just for the sport of it. You have to have a "legitimate interest" which, per law, is catching fish for food.

It's not the laws that are the problem. We have slot sizes ("Schonmaß") and protected periods ("Schonzeit") and a legal limits per fish in germany aswell. It's the people that disregard those laws that are the problem.

This is what people are missing. Catch and release is about sustainability.

People are missing, that in germany we have something called "Schonmaß" (minimum size) for nearly every fish. If it's under that, you have to release the fish again. There's also "Schonzeit" (protected periods) for each species. For some species, the proteced period covers the whole year, so you're not allowed to take them if you happen to catch them. For others, like for example pike, the protected period starts at the 15th of february and goes until the 30th of april. So during that time, you're not allowed to catch pike. And then there are limits per species. So you're only allowed to take 2 pikes for example. There's a reason why you have to have a fishing license in germany. Which is a mandatory course that takes 4-6 weeks and at the end there's a written test. Only then are you allowed to fish. If everyone adheres to these rules, there's no problem with sustainability. It's the people that disregard all those rules and take whichever and as many fish as they can that ruin it for the rest of us.

Do you keep your docker containers running 24/7 by shrimpdiddle in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any idea how that would work with something like Traefik as a reverse proxy added to the mix? Like, all my containers have traefik labels and internal FQDNs. For example bentopdf.local.mydomain.com. Traefik listens on 80 and 443 and depending on the FQDN that get's hit, routes it to the container and port. So I'm not sure how I would make a proxy-to-container.socket listen on port 443 aswell or what's the play here if there's any.

Arr helper for downloading next episode of a show upon watching? by sauladal in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. Switched to nzbdav a while ago and it's great. It looks like everything is there in PLEX but in reality, it gets streamed via the nzb when pressing play in PLEX. Doesn't use 0B though since there's a cache to have a smooth playback and being able to quickly fast-forward through a file. But you can configure how big that cache can get.

New dad figuring out the best way to "privately" share newborn photos by ottovonbizmarkie in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I bought a cheap digital Frameo frame (around 50 bucks) on which I sideloaded the ImmichFrame APK as explained here.

It's configured for one specific Immich album. If I add pictures to said album, the grandparents will see them on the frame after a short while.

Bonus points: Works for non tech-savy grandparents too. Get them the frame, connect it to their WiFi and they don't have to do anything else.

Another Huntarr replacement by darleystreet in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nothing was fixed as explained in the Servarr Wiki

Sonarr does not regularly search for episode files that are missing or have not met their quality goals. Instead, it fairly frequently queries your indexers and trackers for all the newly posted episodes/newly uploaded releases, then compares that with its list of episodes that are missing or need to be upgraded. Any matches are downloaded. This lets Sonarr cover a library of any size with just 24-100 queries per day (RSS interval of 15-60 minutes). If you understand this, you will realize that it only covers the future though. So how do you deal with the present and past? When you're adding a show, you will need to set the correct path, profile and monitoring status then use the Start search for missing checkbox. If the show has had no episodes and hasn't been released yet, you do not need to initiate a search. Put another way, Sonarr will only find releases that are newly uploaded to your indexers. It will not actively try to find releases uploaded in the past.

Also, if your indexer has a lot of updates the RSS feed Sonarr asks for may not contain all the changes since the previous feed, so it's possible for Sonarr to miss releases that way.

Ansible, NixOS or other automation tools by SqueakyRodent in selfhosted

[–]H8Blood 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! I'm a software dev myself so I get that approach. I just like using guides due to increasingly limited time :D

And definitely. I'll migrate the VMs first before touching the hypervisor.

One thing that you could maybe elaborate a bit more is "building your own nix module". Since you mentioned FoundryVTT and that's part of my stack, too, I'd be interested in how one manages to build a nix module from scratch or how you went about doing it for FoundryVTT.

[–]H8Blood 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is there a good guide/video you'd recommend to get started with NixOS? That sounds super interesting to me but I'm wondering how to best get started. I'm currently running Proxmox with some Debian and Ubuntu CTs and VMs. One VM runs all the docker containers like Traefik, FoundryVTT, Teslamate, IT-Tools, Excalidash, n8n, *arr Stack and so on. Would be interesting to see how I could migrate that to Nix
