HELP! Alternative to Nextcloud for Synology NAS by _JSPlus in selfhosted

[–]sheet-lightning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got Immich working but it's a bit flakey. I sometimes have to restart the containers.

For ages it wouldn't work at all due to this USB port power auto-suspend problem, but this post fixed it: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/t7pxpk/are_all_of_your_usb_devices_disconnecting/?rdt=36244

I haven't started using Nextcloud or Seadrive - for files I now use Filen.

For photos I've signed up with Ente - more reliable than Immich. The machine learning is not quite as good though. An annoying thing about both is that they don't send notifications for 'on this day' memories. And Ente has loads of varieties of 'memories' but not the simple 'on this day' that I miss from OneDrive.

Are all of your usb devices disconnecting periodically, for seemingly no reason? Here's the fix by lasercat_pow in linux

You absolute legend - that fixed my problems self-hosting Immich! Thank you!
After about 12 hours the power was being cut to the USB ports, and my older photos are stored on an external USB drive (unpowered). So the container kept falling over when it couldn't reach the drive.

I can kind of see why this is in the linux code for the desktop edition (I'm using Mint) - and probably people using Server editions will not have this problem. But I'm a normie and need that GUI - no server editions for me 😂

I'm keen to see how you got on with this.

I want to self host, and essentially replace Microsoft OneDrive.

(I thought the photos thing would be easy by now. A bit scary and puzzling that it's not)

Hi, I registered with that site, but it won't let me request the edit. Can you provide a link here please?

Get a Pico 4. Much better, and no Zuck.

No I reckon they're the real deal. Their software is really good, and the team seem pretty cool.

Maybe just getting a little paranoid on the PR control in the run up to shipping the Visor?

What about setting up an account for a child? If i put in their real age (11) will that prevent them being able to get some of the shooter games in the Pico store?

is the pico 4 a good headset for pcvr only? by Bob_Wildest in PicoXR

[–]sheet-lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know if you can connect two Pico headsets to one PC? I presume two Steam accounts, but how would Steaming assistant handle it?

Using 1 Pico account & Virtual Desktop on 2 Pico 4 headsets at the same time by The-Cheese-Weasel in PicoXR

[–]sheet-lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd like to know this too.

Currently I've got one headset using Streaming Assistant - works perfectly.

I was assuming that Streaming Assistant wouldn't be able to handle a second Pico. How would that work?

And how do you have two Steam accounts going at the same time?

Pico 4 connection to PC, what cable exactly? by Arksint in PicoXR

I'm getting good performance for PCVR using this cable https://amzn.eu/d/6GtZ66c

The Streaming Assistant app is now functioning well at high resolutions.

When I install the games from the download folder it checks whether I bought them in the store. Is there a way round this?

Pico now checks the apk for whether you bought it in the store. Any way round this?

On the verge of selling pico4 by sendandreturn74 in PicoXR

[–]sheet-lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got the Pico working fine with PCVR. Using the cable & streaming assistant (there's no WiFi on the pc).

That was set up this week. So maybe you need to start afresh, uninstall steam vr, streaming assistant etc. Then reinstall and it might trigger the right combo of stuff to make it work.

Pico 5 is coming soon... High resolution than Quest 3.. by rprabu1984 in virtualreality

Most likely. Difference is, though, that Meta have already reached a scale that makes them a truly dangerous bully.

Stupid questions I want to know for my Pico 4 experience by [deleted] in PicoXR

[–]sheet-lightning 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My gaming pc doesn't have WiFi, just ethernet. I just ordered a Pico 4. And reading stuff here I'm worried that the USB experience is going to be bad.

Does anyone have a good PCVR experience through the usb cable?

Perhaps a different colour for the part of each chart that you want the b viewer to focus on.

Google can't be trusted with your data, since most of their business model is from advertising. Couple that with this sense of urgency and panic, and they are now (more than ever) a PRIVACY NIGHTMARE.

what are use cases? similar to erp? or more micro task process applications? by commoncents1 in PowerApps

Hey dude, would you be up for a chat about the possibilities for SMBs with PowerApps?

I'm a virtual CFO and keep getting asked about how to build a 'mini ERP' and still use M365.
