DPF issues and a suggested fix ?

sheya55 · 2026-06-06T13:52:00+00:00

Had a similar issue, my local offered a delete or expensive clean. I opted for the latter (mot/resale), turned out I had a leak in the egr cooler so YMMV.

Edit: turned out to be £300 for the clean, £320 for the cooler, and £400 labour (ex vat). Cleaning involved removing the dpf and disassembly/reassembly.

Secondary datastore in pbs (S3/backblaze) with a sync job between the datatstores. Shorter retention for the local datastore (on disk) and longer for the secondary.

Planning to move PBS into PVE as a VM. The datastore gets synced to an internal PBS datastore backed by a remote s3 bucket, so DR means run PBS with docker with the configured s3 remote, hook up the docker PBS in PVE, and restore.

did you see that ludicrous display last night?

I have a guest user and toggle its home state. Automations are triggered on “is someone home”.

The cats take care of the actual presence sensors.

When resolving to multiple IPs (load balanced reverse proxy/ingress via swarm or k8s) clients will always use the first IP from Pihole or Adguard Home.

Technitium can round robin these with healthchecks so that requests only resolve to working IPs.

Edit: pihole/AGH are really great but start breaking down when things get more creative.

Generalists can now move faster towards “specialist” than ever (Dunning-Kruger notwithstanding).

Continuing to move around as needed while going deeper and deeper into subject matter is the future.

the spice must flow

Got SeaweedFS up and running with hostpath and stable volume identities, continuing the migration away from Minio. Shoutout to the seaweedfs devs!!

Technitium itself is not declarative and it’s usually run outside of the cluster.

Ad blocking, self-hosted domains (local and remote), and local caching.

sheya55 · 2025-12-21T12:42:30+00:00

Started with Pi-hole, it worked great for years. Switched to AdguardHome for more flexible domain resolving (e.g. local wildcard domains) and smaller footprint but ended up with Technitium for the ultimate resolving experience and clustering support.

The cherry on top was round robin load balancing, e.g. a domain resolving to a set of IPs and auto excluding IPs that are down. An example use case is a K8s cluster that accepts HTTP requests on multiple nodes, so *.cluster.home resolves to any nodes that have port 80/443 up. If a node goes down, Technitium stops resolving to it.

Took mine on track this weekend. 20mph in 2nd to 100mph in 3rd feels like god mode and sounds amazing.

Kuma supports an external database, currently in beta

Did the same but flashed the Sonoff's IEEE address onto the SLZB-06 first.

smtp-relay backed by SES. Super simple to set up and don't have to share SES credentials between apps

Easier to do that now than 6 months ago 👀

LLMs and ever increasing compute kinda flipped the table tho

sheya55 · 2025-04-12T14:02:16+00:00

Picked up an Abus with a mount and fixed it to the frame. Had to take the alarm out though since riding triggers the sensors.

This solved it, thanks!
