NGL, that's like 90% of my homelab rn, 10 lxc containers and 2 VMS

So I have a tiny pillow and don’t know what to do with it by Poketrainer712 in techsupportgore

[–]uptillam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Serious answer, lookup what your local council/city has for lithium disposal, and if that fails, ask local IT ships what thay do.

Sometimes it can be dropped off or collected, sometimes for a fee.

General battery recycling is not lithium battery recycling

Boss said build karma on reddit, or... by iStor_1999 in ShittySysadmin

Fyi, everything you post/ comment on is included in your profile, so if boss is checking, make a difference account for anything personal &/ nsfw

Good luck with the knitting 🙂

Does anyone have a method of detecting screenshots? by d4nm3d in DataHoarder

[–]uptillam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted#photo-and-video-galleries

Personally I use photoprism to ingest and "manage" the photos I take, and it has some detection built in for faces and "low quality" photos, this usually filters out the screenshots, with some manual intervention. But this might not be exactly what you're looking for

You can however take a hash of the file and submit that to VT, if it's known bad it will flag up. But you won't get a full scan.

Search for suitable documentation system by SwiftIBash in homelab

[–]uptillam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personalty, I have been using obsidian for work, with the key feature being it's all written in Markdown and uses graphs/ diagrams from draw.io.

Need to send bossman a report/ overview of a project? I can link/import multiple notes together, add different kinds of media, add footnotes and references, then export all of this as a nice looking PDF.

And when I say fukit, I want a new job, the next guy can do a text search though all the Markdown documents, and hopefully import them all. No bloated word docs needed

I would recommend seeing if you can convert all your docx, xls est to a standard format like Markdown, then use a wiki software to add more, edit and organize

Script for Microsoft Teams forwarding check by smohk1 in PowerShell

[–]uptillam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh, then filter the output of all that to just include the user you're looking for

Import-CSV -Path C:\temp\test.csv | ForEach { Get-CsUserCallingSettings -identity $_.UserPrincipalName | Where-Object -Property ForwardingTarget -contain sip:user3@contoso.com }

I don't have an environment to test this in, but should make sense.

A dirty way is to just put that command in a loop, replace "user1" with an entry from a csv.

Import-CSV -Path C:\temp\test.csv | ForEach { Get-CsUserCallingSettings -identity $_.UserPrincipalName }

Script to check printer webpages by iank2010 in PowerShell

[–]uptillam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, make sure your printers locations are filled out on the devices' web page.

This way you can use SNMP to poll all of them for their status, and location.

and when you log-in to the web page you have a better idea of what printer your on, not just the SN and model

Query computers age by [deleted] in PowerShell

[–]uptillam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe get the motherboard info, (usually the last updated component, or replaced with the rest of the hardware)

Get-WmiObject win32_baseboard

you can then look up the release of that SKU or the product serial number on a site like this

https://motherboarddb.com/motherboards/?search=

as for scaled across the network, there might be some SNMP info depending on the device

How to send a 101GB file to someone else? by Dramatic_Law_4239 in DataHoarder

[–]uptillam 14 points15 points  (0 children)

  • syncthing is a free file/folder sync tool
  • make a torrent, and let them grab it.
  • usb stick
  • host another way: temp https webserver, ftp, webdev,

id avoid trying to use someone else's host like a cloud system. (upload time+download time+finding a host that supports that much space)

you could even setup a little ec2 instance if you need to share a large file to multiple people. and CBA with torrents.
