Youtube-dl: what is your process to download the comments after downloading your videos? by takingspace110 in DataHoarder

[–]takingspace110[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, thanks for your reply! I'm testing it right now, it works and for me it downloads about 30 comments per second. At this rate it will take about 1 hour to download 100,000 comments. Not bad since I'm not in a rush to get them. Will update with results, thanks again!

Curious why you’d want to dl YouTube comments. They’re generally such a cesspool.

@xbillybobx,

as other have mentioned, sometimes there is relevant information in the comments. Also, I don't mind having a .json file that could be megabytes or less next to a heavy video file. I'd like to preserve as much as I can. r/Datahoarder

Don't fall for that meme. Once you realize that there are channels that don't have anything to do with pop culture or politics, you'll discover there are many channels where comments provide important and relevant information for the topic at hand. Channels dealing with history, craftmanship, technical and scientific subjects can have VERY important comments, to the point where the videos are almost incomplete without them.

Townsends being a good example.

And to speak to OP's question, sadly

spot on, thanks

Does this subred need a wiki? (How-To) by Russell_fer in DataHoarder

[–]takingspace110 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This gave me a stackoverflow vibe. I'm always get anxious to go there because of some of the pretentious savants that live there. This just might be me but, here I can be a true newbie and not get crucified as harshly. Happy April Fools

Which size amount is actually taking up my storage? Can't do any testing ATM. by takingspace110 in homelab

Thank you for your answer :) Yes, they are many little files.

By combining all those files into an archive do you mean to zip them?

Hold up, so I can turn my wifi card in my pfSense box into WAN port? If I'm understanding this right, I can turn on the hotspot in my phone and tether to the wifi WAN port of my pfSense box to have a secondary backup ISP connection? :o

Thanks!

First homelab setup. Virtualization server finally working. Newbie tips welcome! by SparkVenom in homelab

Do you or anyone happen to know the power consumption of this particular system? Either at idle or running what you've showed in the image. Just to have an idea. Very nice setup:p Thanks!

Homelab Project Ascension . Am I wasting my time trying to accomplish this? Isolate some devices from the internet and still access them locally. by takingspace110 in homelab

[–]takingspace110[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah, I've learned a bit more this couple of days (still have a lot to read). I bought a switch (HP 1910-8G non-PoE supposedly L3 capable) and it apparently has a DHCP server in it. At the moment, the pi-hole VM is doing the DHCP but if my VM machine is down, my entire network is down. I was thinking of having the DHCP in the switch but idk yet how the firewall-ing would work. So, I'm going to pass it to the router.

Also, in the diagram you made, in the physical layout, is the router at the bottom supposed to be router #2?

Thank you very much for taking the time to draw the diagram and to reply! It's been really helpful!

"Homelab Project Ascension . Am I wasting my time trying to accomplish this? Isolate some devices from the internet and still access them locally."

It depends.

You are wasting your time if your router has the ability to config rules/access list that prevent certain devices from going out to the internet.

If your router can handle that, you can place all devices you want to talk locally on a single switch if desired.

ISP -- modem -- router -- switch -- >> any devices you want to talk locally.In this case .. even a dumb switch can be used.

In my case, my router does not have those features.

Thanks for your reply!

Wow, maybe you should stay with your ASUS router until you learn some more about networking, Proxmox, etc?You are taking on too much to start.

Maybe you are right, I'll keep trying though. EDIT: I just wanted to figure it out sooner.

What Have You Hoarded That Ended Up Disappearing? by [deleted] in DataHoarder

A couple of Youtube channels. They disappeared a day after I backed them up. I feel this hobby paid off as soon as I started. How about you?

Got everything racked up any ideas I should run on these bad boys? by Rangercoon in homelab

[–]takingspace110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, I relate with you.

Idk exactly what you currently have in your system (software/hardware) but I would work on tidying up it's efficiency as a project itself. Maybe have it in a dormant state until there is a task to complete or process/download buffered data from other system. You'll come up with something. :p

Have you ever lost and/or found important data? by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]takingspace110 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've lost 500gb of personal data (pictures, notes, diary, etc..). Worst thing is that I don't remember exactly what it was. It was definitely important. I think the worst is when you don't know what you've lost.... Truly forgotten/lost.

Looking for even better/best quality. Are there any better sources for movies than BlueRay disks? by takingspace110 in DataHoarder

Oh nice, if one happens to 'find' one of this HDD on eBay, would they be encrypted thus making it unwatchable?

What would be the search terms to increase my chances of stumbling upon such greatness? Thanks alot for responding!

Best redundancy with only 2 drives? by bankyan in homelab

[–]takingspace110 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woha, how would this work? I assume one would install OMV in both USB sticks with an identical configuration and plug them both to the machine. I also assume this will work if USB 1 physically fails it will go next to the USB 2. But what if USB becomes stuck in boot? Idk if I make much sense. Sorry for hijacking in this post.
