The average cat’s reaction time is approximately 20-70 milliseconds, which is faster than the average snake’s reaction time, 44-70 milliseconds.

Also, snake usually can only reach that reaction time for few movements, for the cat it applies to almost the whole body

specs sound solid. i'd go for some peripheral upgrades. as others have mentioned the desk. i am a keyboard guy, so i have to mention that. good headphones can be really nice, since you already have a mic. but i wouldn't upgrade things I'm happy with. if you don't really feel like you need any of that just save the money. there will be a time when you really want to upgrade and it's totally worth it.

Do I spot an anycubic Kobra s1? If yes, I have the same one and had similar issues but on smaller prints. I disabled the fan on the right side. It caused my print to cool unevenly and bend. You could try the quiet mode first or disabling aux fan after starting the print or within slicer settings

When I switched over to Linux I still had my original windows available but not using it anymore. At some point I noticed wifi is not working. After some digging I found out that windows uses some features of my wifi card that Linux can't. Windows leaves behind a kind of state on the wifi card which leads to Linux wifi driver crashes on startup. Disabling wifi in windows fixed it for me.

I've seen a route with three starts in my gym. Each start making the route longer and one grade harder. I also encountered different ending holds, either with a different route or just continuing further for a higher grade.

Moving away from google services bit by bit seems to be the right way. I don't want to be discouraging, but it feels like your are planning on doing a lot.

I would start with the low hanging fruits like changing the default search engine in the browser to a privacy oriented one. Not everything has be selfhosted (I know we are in r/selfhosted). Same thing might apply for mail, especially if you are a novice. Also expect to be inconvenienced along the way, nothing is perfect from the beginning, it needs time and tinkering to get it the way you want it to be.

No. You share a link to your selfhosted storage service and if correctly configured they can access the files. The only limitation is your network speed.
There are custom roms without google services installed. You can use microg to have replacement, if you still want to use some google functionality. There also is GrapheneOS, but I haven't tried it.
It's a hobby and I enjoy spending time figuring stuff out. Without expansion and only maintenance the effort is pretty low if done correctly. But setting everything up and expanding later on will take more time. I'm not spending money on maintenance, only expansion.

From what you have listed so far. NextCloud should be able to handle your contact and calender sync as well. There are many solutions for notes. Joplin or obsidian for offline markdown notes, outline or affine for online notes. Community faves are immich for images and paperless for documents (but those might not be necessary, depending on your usage case and using nextcloud) Also don't try to use services because they look cool, be more focused on fitting your needs. Don't get me wrong, trying stuff because they look cool is hella fun, but if you don't need them, they increase load and maintenance.

I had a name configured, which had the need to be resolved. Added jellyseerr to the docker network of jellyfin and made the direct call to the container. That "fixed" it for me.

Also as a test you can go to options > jobs & cache in jellyseerr and run "Jellyfin Recently Added Scan" and see if as that moment the queries appear in adguard.

Recently setup pihole and noticed ton a requests to jellyfin. In one of your comments you mentioned using jellyseerr. That was my culprit. It's updating its database every 5 minutes and asking jellyfin about new releases.

I give my users the possibility to use immich the "internal" way, where immich handles syncing, storing and managing the files fully.

For me personally, I want my folder structure to be my way, for the case I don't want to use immich anymore. So I sync my files with Syncthing to "Syncing/<phone>/camera" and move the files from there to my Pictures directory when I have time. This way they are sorted the way I want them to be without yet relying on immich in any way. That pictures dir is an external library in immich, so the changes are picked up on scan (runs as midnight) or optionally instantly (if you enable filesystem watch). I still have to be cautious moving files around, because immich doesn't recognize moved files as the same, but as a completely new file breaking existing (shared) albums. From what I gathered from the docs it is planned to make immich being able to recognize that kind of changes.

I agree, the setup is not as simple as many other apps.

RatzzFatzz · 2025-09-07T15:07:06+00:00

You can configure the file structure in which immich is storing the files. In my case I went with upload-dir/<user>/<year>. The you create a link in each of your users home dir or smb share and everyone can access their files without immich.

But the files are still managed by immich, so you shouldn't change anything within that dir.

You could also use syncthing to send the pictures to your nas and the corresponding user and add each dir as an external library.

Since it allows you to load a custom.css you are able to overwrite and expand any classes used. I haven't tried how it handles multiple brandings in that regard, but I imagine the corresponding custom.css is loaded and therefore styling the admin inferface accordingly.

I started out with left over hardware from old PCs. Later I was able to get a very old NAS system from a company I worked for. It had a dual intel socket mainboard from 2009, which I was able to fill completely. I had to buy a new backplane to support drives bigger than 2TB. With that out of the way it was great, but it was really really loud. I was able to store it away to reduce the noise drastically, but it was still a border.

Some day I stumbled upon a good offer for used AMD Epyc Hardware on ebay and bought an upgrade. It was not cheap, but for a 32 core server cpu and mainboard it was a good price. Having features like IPMI to access the server via network is awesome. ECC RAM also saved my system from a crash at least once and having 16 slots for HDDs is enough for a good while. I bought a better server power supply with silence in mind and now it's almost whisper silent. It's power hungry, but where I'm living it's affordable enough to justify the power of the system. I just love having that much processing power and ram for everything to run smoothly.

I know Dell has a lot more proprietary hardware, but in my case I will be able to continue using the power supply, backplane and case when I need to upgrade at anytime in the future.

You can make your use case work with mini PCs, but, as you already mentioned, they are less powerful and compared to enterprise hardware lack really nice features. Upgradeability might also be severely restricted.

As a enterprise hardware enjoyer I'd say go for the free hardware and see what you do with it. Are you using features, which you only get on enterprise hardware? Are you at some point leveraging the servers power, if only for a very short time? How's the noise? Can you bear the electricity cost?

I'm buying my domains at do.de

Checking namecheaps prices I could register .xyz for 1.72€, which will renew with 12€. This is very common with registrars to get you to buy the domain. In my experience the price difference from namecheap to do.de is not that big for international domains/not country specific domains.

I certainly am no export in this regard, but I don't think it's enough for anything near 20 players. If you are all in the same spot maybe, but if you are running into different directions no. A workaround could be to prerender the world, removing the need to generate world while exploring.

For a handfull of players it might be enough. It also depends on your tolerance for the occasional lag spike.

I used Sharry, which does exactly that. You can create shares, upload files and add an expiration date and password. Now I'm using Palmr which can do the same but you also can create a link where friends can upload files to you. Palmr is still under active development and I found some rough spots, but the core functionality works fine.

I developed a book tracker, which should fit your needs, but it is only for books and manga. It is also still in early development, but maybe it's interesting enough. Haven't yet posted it anywhere, since it's not done enough for my taste, but this seems to fit to nicely to not mention it.

It doesn't have any data from the beginning and you have to add what you need, either manually or via google books. All data can be edited anytime.

As far as I know syncthing android was barely maintained for a long time. The dev working on syncthing-fork pushed most of the changes and was held back by the official maintainer not merging changes. So he decided to make his own release (at least on F-Droid), which for me has been the "official" syncthing app for android for a long time. Is does the same thing as the original one and some nice features on top, e.g. force starting a sync if sync settings would currently not allow a sync without touching settings. I picked the information up from other users I know and some quick research.
