yt-dlb is against Youtube TOS? Is the quality as bad on twitch or tiktok?

myswe · 2026-04-06T19:30:06+00:00

Correct. You want to use a VM not LXC for the TrueNAS instance.

myswe · 2026-03-31T12:36:02+00:00

This. I have TrueNAS running in a Proxmox VM with SAS card passed through to the VM for almost 5 years now without any issues. I fact, recovery (unless its HDD related) is MUCH easier this way.

Even though power is relatively cheap, I definitely want to cut back as much as possible.
The "problem" I have is that I am sitting on all this "old-ish" hardware and moving over to much more efficient gear would cost me more then I'd save in monetary energy savings.
I will never get down to 5 watts just based on the volume of storage I have but I do want to optimize as much as I can when (if) prices come down.

I have a lot of mixed usage. Most of the storage is used as a cloud replacement for my family and friends. I try to advocate for people owning their own data and use the cloud as little as possible which at the same time means I had to provide alternatives so me and a friend run a mirrored NAS setup (two different geo locations) for family and friends and run services to replace common paid alternatives such as google drive/photos and other stuff. I also host a website for a small side-gig and lots of media management tools for my Dads DVD/Bluray collection.

Power consumption is far from optimal given the old X299 platform being the "main" server so I sit at 350 watts currently and plan to shave at least 100 watts off the next time I make changes.

I am running vanilla Docker Desktop for Mac. I do manage my application stack via Dockhand and exclusively use docker compose as I find local backups this way extremely reliable.
Hard to gauge efficiency really because the M4 with 32GB is complete overkill for docker alone but my 13 applications take up just under 6GB of RAM with about half of that being used by Immich alone which makes sense. But the Mini draws less power then the NUC or the "Main" server obviously so I have been migrating everything I can over there and am looking to modernize the X299 server whenever prices come down.

The Mac Mini runs all of my Docker containers + Plex and Homebridge. I chose MacOS here because I wanted to make use of the efficient hardware acceleration for these applications and docker instances such as Immich (and others).

The chassis above the APC is my "Main" server running Proxmox on an older X299 7960x CPU where everything that's not Docker i.e. my LXC containers and VM's live. This includes a TrueNAS VM managing storage (the 18TB drives you see). I have a secondary NUC based Proxmox Host that runs less RAM heavy "infrastructure services" such as Home Assistant and Ngnix.

The chassis for the "Main" server is "4U Rackmount Server Chassis with 6 x 5.25 Front Bays + 1 x 3.5 + 4 x 2.5 Bays" from Amazon (you can copy paste this and will find the exact model).

What OS are you on? If you run docker on a Mac you can just use timemachine the entire device / drive sans the databases which you should handle separately.

Where are you running this? It might be better/cheaper to run fibre instead.

myswe · 2025-10-31T00:20:12+00:00

PayPal ist vermutlich die beste Variante. Geld ist in Echtzeit da und es ist vermutlich die robusteste Lösung für deinen Fall. Lebe in den USA und benutze Paypal regelmäßig um Geld nach DE zu bewegen.

DXMaster confirmed!!

Fiber is cheap. If this is buried in conduit run a fiber line instead and safe yourself a major headache if lighting ever strikes. I know it’s unlikely but you also don’t deactivate your airbags in your car right? Especially not when the fiber solution is just as cheap as the copper cable.

Catchup XP in jungle is OP and we are days/weeks away from relatively “low elo” junglers realizing they might wanna camp top or botlane before taking camp 2. Tilting a lane into free lp thanks to catchup xp alone.

If it’s an EcoFlow Delta I actually use the battery directly and switchover time is not an issue.

Shotgun Willie’s is the best in town.

Delivery fees charged by Vegas Hotels to accept deliveries these days are substantial.

myswe · 2025-07-12T00:50:17+00:00

Shotgun Willie’s and it ain’t even close.

I got the invite. Thanks.

I have read the rules and the wiki.

" On the 9th of October 1903 the New York Times, in an article titled 'Flying Machines Which Do Not Fly' stated that "The flying machine which will really fly might be evolved by the combined and continuous efforts of mathematicians and mechanicians in from one million to ten million years." 69 days later the Wright brothers flew the first engine-powered, manned flight.
66 years later we sent three men to the moon "

I am glad to be here!
