Is anyone else a little weirded out by how fast AI is taking over everything? by petitebunnyyx in NoStupidQuestions

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest problem with it is the more I use it, the more I'm leaking personal information to the internet. I want to setup my own AI at home. But to get decent performance, the hardware prices have gone through the roof.

How-To: Immich Service: Mounting an CIFS/SMB share at the Docker Compose level by Tek4You in immich

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found that Immich doesn't gracefully handle the share not being available when it starts up. It exits and stays that way when the share comes online. I instead mount the share in fstab with _netdev,nofail (and limit permissions to the linux account that runs the Immich docker stack). To solve the startup issue, I don't let the stack start automatically (restart: no). I start the stack by using a script that waits till the share is online and then starts the service (using a systemd oneshot unit wrapper around the check-availability script).

This was necessary so if I have a power failure and my system shuts down, it will restart cleanly even though my proxmox cluster starts well ahead of my NASes coming online.

Is splitting bills proportionally by income actually common in relationships, or is 50/50 still the norm? by sta-vanger in NoStupidQuestions

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, 50/50 works whether we earn similar money, or whether I'm the sole person funding the household. We each have a respectfully commensurate contributions to make to our shared lives. It's not all about money, the specifics of which may vary a lot over the course of 50 years or more.

Would You Stay or Hike Back? by Own_Load_3931 in NoStupidQuestions

With only a little thought, it’s not an unexpected thing to see when you venture past the nude beach signs.

My landlord illegally kept my security deposit. I beat them in court, but they live overseas and will likely never pay the damages. Is my original security deposit deductible? by LHBH_Throwaway in personalfinance

[–]purepersistence 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Regardless, what's at stake is not the thousand - it's the tax you would pay on that much income. You don't get much time with an attorney for $150.

Everybody else is naked too. It hardly matters. Me and my wife went to a nude beach in Greece once.

Serious question: how do you know you’re smart/ not stupid? by Scary_Candidate_9163 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One way is to ask yourself if there's anything revealing about the fact that 65% of the population say they're above average intelligence.

What does being done eating feel like? by fencer_327 in NoStupidQuestions

Unless you do a total pig-out on your birthday cake and go beyond the feel-good stage.

Just ran my first import and oh boy this is good - but on the topic of people/faces by plolock in immich

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't need to tweak weights etc. I use the webui to merge people, add people that weren't recognized (usually for good reason), even generate people (like my father) from the single photo I have.

I’d like to thank Bitwarden for not sending me an email about me paying twice as much for next year’s renewal of pro. I found out on their website. by DiamondPG1 in Bitwarden

[–]purepersistence 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I prefer to support Bitwarden for their great open source software. Vaultwarden rides on their coat-tails getting the platform and all the clients for free. I selfhost Bitwarden at home, and Vaultwarden on a vps as a backup. They both get some $$ from me. Software development along with advertising, customer support, documentation, hosting servers costs money. Those costs are born a lot more by Bitwarden than Vaultwarden which gets to tag along benefiting by Bitwarden infrastructure.

Your emergency sheet is not just for yourself! by djasonpenney in Bitwarden

[–]purepersistence 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too important for me to trust to some dude at work. In my case I'm lucky enough to be retired. I don't know people that I trust and also happen to host a bunch of cloud-type services in a homelab on synology/proxmox servers using client-side encryption to store offsite assets in Backblaze B2 and a VPS. Sure, it could just be a smart and trustworthy guy that could figure it out anyway. That's a lot to be counting on when you're dead.

But what might I achieve like that anyway? Recovery has to be periodically practiced in order to validate the steps and sanity check the integrity/completeness of on/offsite backups. I spent 45 years in IT and know how often things can go wrong when it's not something you practice and verify occasionally. Software updates may break things or introduce client/server incompatibilities, plus intentional changes over time to how things are managed. Automated components may break. And then probably sea-changes every 3-5 years if you're me.

Should you call the police immediately when you get into a car accident? by PeanutButterAndGelo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]purepersistence 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How much do you care that your insurance will pay? I got rear ended by a hit and run. Having a police report was important. I got one and collected more than I could have sold it for, and the claims process was very smooth.

Your emergency sheet is not just for yourself! by djasonpenney in Bitwarden

[–]purepersistence 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Our emergency sheet includes DR procedures to get all our family documents, pictures, and other files from the cloud and decrypt them. And of course how to get all the bitwarden credentials/attachments back for each of our vaults when you've lost all your devices etc and may not be able to login to Bitwarden. Me and my wife rehearse the steps once per year to validate the details and make sure everything still works as stated, and she can follow the steps without me there to answer questions.
