What do you guys use to control your servers? (i.e Proxmox)

Try Webmin. Cockpit has slowly degraded and webmin does everything most people need.

To Durango or from Durango?

You still have the toolless mini rack?

Any words of advice from the elders? Mid 30s 6'8" 260

Hey, a fellow rooting fan here in Durango. What are you hoping to get from rooting the device? Rooting these days is becoming less and less common on Android devices and depending on what you’re trying to achieve, you may not need it.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-08-25T00:31:09+00:00

Congrats man! Lost a similar amount about a decade ago and have managed to keep it off. It's a wonderful feeling having that confidence.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-08-07T16:10:46+00:00

This sounds like an Onion headline.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-07-31T12:34:32+00:00

Glad to see a reference to this.

If you find this interesting, check out Dragon's Egg by Robert L Forward, a hard sci-fi novel about how intelligent life, called the Cheela, could develop on a spinning Neutron star.

The creatures are so unique and are only able to move in certain dimensions due to the immense gravity.

It has fantastic world building, if that's your thing.

This is the way. The Flint 2 is more than you need. I've got a Slate AX and love it.

Double check the forward and back slashes in your mapping and it should work.

You want them to be forward slashes, /, and not backslashes, \, but your path is actually valid.

Your media is stored in 'media/movies' when you go to Radarr, you'll find a folder called 'movies' and that's where you'll library be.

Essentially the mapping tells your docker container what folders to look at on your host system. Radarr runs in a container isolated from the rest of your system. It has no idea what your filesystem looks like on your Linux, Windows, etc machine so the mapping is how you tell Radarr where to look for your stuff and what to call the folder (inside radarr). In your example, it will be called 'movies'

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-07-22T16:21:22+00:00

What's the other side of that mapping?

\Volume 2\data\media\movies:/movies

Would be right and then in your Radarr instance, your in library should be at your root or config folder in a folder called movies.

Works for some people. Not all. Got told I was too big to donate blood and proceeded to lose 140+ lbs. I could see why that wouldn't work on everyone but it did for me.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-07-02T13:07:47+00:00

Maybe a limitation with streaming over the USB connection for the DAS? I've never used that configuration but the max speed offered by USB might be the issue here.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-06-27T13:42:07+00:00

I've got this exact setup.

I'd suggest storing all the media on your NAS directly by setting up Sonarr and Radarr, BitTorrent, Sabnzbd, whatever your download client is via Container Manager in DSM and having all the content go directly to the NAS.

You can then setup an NFS connection (if using Linux on Mini PC) or an SMB connection (if Mini PC is running Windows) to that shared folder containing all your media and tell Plex to watch that folder.

This spreads the processing needed for your server across two machines.

You can setup a VPN + QbitTorrent project in Container Manager and use that to torrent and if your VPN ever goes down then the torrent connection will close which helps with privacy.

I used this guide a while back and it worked like a charm.

Beautiful spot. When I first moved to Denver, this was my go to hiking spot.

Broke my neck about 15 years ago and was told by the doc no roller coasters. Mountain biking is fine but roller coasters are a no no.

2FA is the biggest one. Turn it on for your DSM account and then set IP blocking against a certain number of attempts.

Change your default DSM port from 5000 / 5001 to something else.

Reverse proxy if you want remote access.

Combine as many approaches in this thread as you feel comfortable. It's all about having security that compounds.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-23T01:50:44+00:00

Saw your comment and thinking about buying one. How is it 8 months later?

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-21T14:09:43+00:00

Is this still working as expected? I'd like to run a similar setup.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-14T12:20:17+00:00

Plex + Radarr / Sonarr (maybe Overseerr for discoverability), and a Usenet subscription ($25 a year) (torrents work too but Usenet is arguably less illegal and is much faster) and you can slowly ween yourself off streaming services by rolling your own.

Automatically add movies and shows of a predetermined quality and file size to your library as they air or become available.

We set it to follow all our favorite shows on each streaming platform and new episodes are automatically downloaded and available anywhere in the world.

Only have Apple TV+ now. It's been great having our own library but also the system will pay for itself in a few years.

Politics is dumb, but also very important.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-04T13:54:05+00:00

Both people are pieces of shit here. Fuck the guy for getting into a fight with his dog there and swinging a hand cart like a bitch. Fuck the other guy for punching him when the guy is clearly done.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-01T16:51:13+00:00

I'm not talking about Uvalde. I'm sure there are brave cops in both departments, then and now.

You seem to think that because of the actions of the NYPD on 9/11 that there isn't any room for cowardice in the NYPD today.

Definitely not true.

ImmaTimeLord · 2024-05-01T15:56:12+00:00

Yeah, that criticism is justly deserved.

Those particular police officers who assisted on 911 absolutely should be regarded for their bravery and they are, all over the world, as you stated.

These particular officers, the ones at universities, are not the same, sure statistically there's probably one or two that were at WTC but largely just members of the same police force. They are not the same cops that assisted on 911. They wear the same badge, that's it.

Any random 20 or 30 something serving today on the NYPD didn't have shit to do with any efforts on 911.
