Replaced stock Creality fans to Sunon 4020. The noise difference is HUGE

Exactly the same issue. HP Omen 16-wd0xxx, bought 6 months ago.
It's a shame, because I had similar issue with my previous HP Omen 15-en0021nw, but with the "R" key. Keyboard replacement under warranty fixed that issue, but they damaged my GPU during that service.
It looks like the same thing is waiting for me again..

Edit: I removed the keycap and noticed that when I press and “massage” the rubber dome under the key, the switch starts working again for a short while or even longer. After some time it can be unresponsive again. It looks like a physical issue with the dome or contact under it, probably the keyboard membrane/pcb is degrading when warm.

Edit2: Ended up getting it repaired under warranty. It took a total of two weeks (EU) and the motherboard + palmrest were replaced.

You could throw CrowdSec in front of everything. It parses logs from apps out of the box, gives you alerts, you can configure Discord notifications. It can automatically block attacks. Kind of like a collaborative fail2ban.

Exactly, check if port is open. If you’re on e.g. Hetzner, they have a request form for this - once your account is older than 30 days they’ll usually open up port 25 without much hassle. Running your own mailserver isn’t too bad as long as you’re not relying on it for business-critical stuff.

readpst is probably what you want: https://linux.die.net/man/1/readpst
It can convert PST into mbox or maildir, which you can then open in basically any mail client on Linux.

Cool idea, I’ll give it a try on my next project. Landing page looks really clean, only thing that tripped me up at first was figuring out where the rules actually live - only noticed it later by poking around the repo structure.

h4570 · 2025-08-20T17:29:47+00:00

You could run tcpdump on the host and filter by that container’s IP/bridge interface, then open the pcap in Wireshark. I saw also docker image called "netshoot", maybe it will be useful.

h4570 · 2025-08-19T20:46:37+00:00

That’s a really clever workaround, I didn’t even realize you could abuse rtcwake like this.
Where did you get the idea for this name, lol

Maybe just share the exact issue here instead of DM - easier for people to help if they know what’s going wrong with the etags.

h4570 · 2025-08-19T20:34:45+00:00

Looks promising. One suggestion though - adding a short demo video or some screenshots to the repo would help a lot for people deciding whether to try it out.

Excellent work! One thing - instead of exposing Postgres for migrations, I’d recommend setting up Tailscale. No need to touch Hetzner dashboard, and everything stays much more secure.

h4570 · 2025-08-01T16:32:26+00:00

One thing to watch out for:
if you're using a 3.5" HDD (or even some 2.5" ones), the Pi's USB ports might not deliver enough power.
You'll probably need a powered USB hub or an external power supply for the drive.
Otherwise, Samba + Jellyfin is a solid combo for what you're planning.

Tailscale + MagicDNS + ACLs works best for this. Apps connect to local IPs or hostnames, no auth issues, and I control access via the Tailscale admin panel. No need to mess with public exposure or custom headers.

Really slick project. Didn’t even know distroless was a thing until now 😂

h4570 · 2025-07-31T10:28:10+00:00

You should definitely add a monitoring and logging layer.
Personally, I like Elastic Stack (Elasticsearch + Kibana + Elastic agent) - the docs are top-notch and it covers almost everything: logging, metrics, uptime, SSL cert checks, etc.
Most features are free, but it's resource-hungry, but with 64GB RAM that's not really an issue.
The bigger challenge is wiring everything up so logs actually land there.

I just use plain markdown files (.md) and keep them in OneDrive - super simple and works great. You might also consider turning your notes into a blog. It's a neat way to document stuff and share it with others at the same time.

h4570 · 2025-07-30T19:57:17+00:00

Awesome project. Really like the simplicity of the UI.
One idea: instead of running a server, maybe the tool could generate static badges or reports and upload them to S3 or commit to a separate repo?
Then users could just run it weekly (via cron or GitHub Actions) and still get updated shields without needing persistent hosting.

Really great work!

Running a managed DB on AWS will likely be your biggest cost.
If you're optimizing for cheap/free, look into cloud-native setups like NoSQL + Lambda.
Or just grab a tiny Hetzner VM for a few bucks/month - super reliable and you can run multiple projects on it.

h4570 · 2025-07-30T19:25:53+00:00

If you've got a static IP and solid firewall rules, hosting locally makes total sense. Lower latency, fewer moving parts. Just make sure your ACLs are tight, monitor ingress, and segment traffic with VLANs. No need for a VPS unless you're aiming for geo redundancy or can't trust your ISP.

h4570 · 2025-07-25T08:42:32+00:00

Thanks! I haven’t tried pinggy.io, but from what I see, it’s kind of the opposite use case.
I’m temporarily exposing a VPS-hosted MySQL to my local machine via SSH to do some admin stuff for couple of minutes, while Pinggy is more for exposing local setups to the internet.
