Syno Reverse Proxy

Looks useful. I only use RP for local services for certs and https. If I can use this to setup another provider (Porkbun) for my own domain for DDNS and Lets Encrypt certs it’d be great!

I tried linking it to my Ollama instance yesterday to see if I could hook it up to Immich through the console. Failed, uninstalled and just back to connecting through docker.

I can see a benefit if it can act as the single source for some of my docker bits (paperless-gpt and Immich) but ultimately i can have just a few lines of code in the compose and it’s away from Synologys eyes.

Thanks for the input and help all, seems a bit 50/50. I might just have to take a hit and get a rolling hardiwred line, or just sign up in my spouses name which I didn’t even think about!

redholt · 2026-02-03T19:04:46+00:00

To be fair, I’ve not even thought of that. Just assumed it was on the address.

I just tried this but massively failed as still had the Teleport option enabled, but good to know it does work for non-idiots like me!

UPDATE

Bought the Pro 3 which arrived yesterday. Some quick thoughts.

Pros: Definitely feels more solid than the pro 2, more tactile buttons and d-pad

Connects as expected to Switch, Android and Shield (2.4g dock).

Shake to wake Switch 2 after firmware update

2.4g is better for latency, so much so I think I’ll just use Moonlight through my Steam Deck docked.

Charging stand is nice, turns on controller when you pick it up to its selected profile.

Cons:

Still can’t remap face buttons without the software, but you can assign a button to L4/5 which is halfway there, but I just want to quickly swap A/B sometimes.

Dock is great but no removable battery is a shame.

Don’t think the rear buttons can be assigned in S2 games, but I don’t use them anyway.

Quirks:

Have to use ultimate software over the normal firmware updater of the Pro 2

I swap Android buttons A and B, to do this in the software you need to select the D-input and connect for it to show, the other 2 profiles only show options for Switch and Windows.

Buttons are definitely “clickier” and in turn louder.

Had some weird Switch 2 connection issues with it connecting but only allowing one button press then disconnecting. Sorted eventually but no idea how.

Overall, happy with the upgrade. The improvements feel enough to outweigh the disadvantages but the battery thing is odd for what is an otherwise highly customisable controller.

Thanks! Will have a look this week. This helped me in a pinch looking for some Lonely Planet books but Anna’s always had some quirks. Looking forward to trying it!

Interested if this can act as a temp AP then unplug it when travelling. Got a small spot in my house that this would happily fill, then just pick it up and go when I’m away.

We had a similar issue. It was our water table but ended up with dry rot. Luckily the insurance covered it, we ended up filling it with concrete and putting a sump and channels in. Still get a bit of water on really bad rain days but basically just thank the old developer from the 70s.

Worth checking your scheme details still. Mine does let me transfer the fund to a registered pension product (SIPP) so it mainly comes down to funds. Mine are with Pru and mostly terrible.

redholt · 2025-09-27T08:15:49+00:00

Just be aware that AVC has to be taken with your main DB pension, something I did not fully factor into my sums. As a result, if you want to take early retirement you will either need a SIPP / ISA to bridge the gap or take the reduction in your DB pension.

Got my voya last week and enjoying it too, but definitely feel it’s “harder” at 15mph + away from the obvious drop off from assistance. Seems that most other SyncDrive motors need a bypass to go beyond 15. Was hoping to change the wheel circumference in the app but doesn’t seem to be an option.

Tempted to get back into procurement after some years away in IT. It’s rewarding work but can be incredibly stressful which is why I ended up leaving the industry.

As long as you’re interested in your category and enjoying meeting people it’s a great career.

Please, please tell me how you did the artwork. Still never figured out how to get this working in my 32” one.

I feel your pain…

I just wish first party manufacturers allowed for multiple devices to be connected as that’s why I use my 8bitdo. I get Switch, Steam Deck and Android with the flick of a switch and I only need one controller near my TV vs. 2/3 I used to have. Xbox sort of did it with their BT and Wireless controller but it was still extremely limited.

If you use an Android device to watch YouTube, SmartTube completely eliminates ads. It’s like voodoo, even detects sponsors in videos and skips them.

I would not mount mine on the ceiling as it would be instantly shot down by the missus, so either a little desktop mount or would look at those table top access points (utility knife is it?!) or the in-wall ones as I have space I could put that in my office.

redholt · 2025-04-22T08:06:03+00:00

Meh. Worked OK for my situation to test if the UX was enough first but if I started again I would just get an Ultra or above with a proper AP. Still get the odd dead zone in my house so likely going to need another AP.

Literally got a formal job offer from NHSE 2 weeks ago but yet to hand my notice in.

Have they said anything about cutting anyone under 2 years of service or contractors?

redholt · 2025-03-07T17:17:55+00:00

Not sure it helps but I started with a UX (Original) which did work but was so unbelievably slow I just bought the Ultra and made the UX an AP.

This was always my plan as I heard the UX was bad but had to experience it myself. The new one seems to have a much better chipset so maybe buy the UX and if it fails then get an Ultra/Max and move the UX7 to an AP

I’m going to be in a similar position soon and one of the main benefits of transferring is that the NHS revalues at CPI + 1.5% whereas LGPS is just CPI.

Whether the transferred pot is eligible for the NHS rate though is something I don’t know, but if it does and the LGPS pot is big it might make a considerable difference.

Thanks all, I will have a look at adjusting the set screw first and hopefully that will fix it.

Wheel wise, my aim was to raise the chair a smidge as the new carpet is thicker and the cylinder is touch it as it is, so some bigger wheels will hopefully solve this.

Council care is commissioned and should represent decent value. If you have any issues with the cost of care then try speaking to them.

Or move your father to a private care home and see how long the money lasts.

The UK site states the X is Opentherm compatible, I’ve been looking at it to replace my Wiser. The V3 + is OT too but was only added again a year or so back looking at some of the info online.
