Mostly because my files stay on my hardware, on my network. In case of internet down/broken/filtered I can still access all my data. That is one of the points of self hosting. Not the only one, granted, and maybe not even the most critical, but having the opportunity, better to host on your turf.
Go ahead the self host on a cloud somewhere, nothing bad about that! Have fun, enjoy, learn and be digitally independent is the core of self hosting.
Ok, i misunderstood!
Why use an external cloud? While its technically still kind of self its not self hosted anymore IMHO. You would still be running your services, but on somebody else, rented, hardware. While I do the same for a few services (like email), i wouldn’t suggest it for general services that you want to reside on your turf (like immich, music, 'arrs, passwords, whatever)
How do I find out if the ISP is handling me a single address or a /64 or whatever?
Mm no, not using dyndns. I am missing IPv6 support on the LAN side… But I have it on the wan side
Good stuff for a sci-fi movie, but that’s about it.
Nobody is going to phase out fast food or kill meat anytime soon. Not even anytime late…
Ok cool to know, never done raid1 since the time I moved to btrfs…
That seems overkill, in fact my 20y old only address still works pretty fine, and with rspamd setup, with basic settings, the annoying few emails have been intercepted now.
But indeed an extreme but effective approach, yours.
Thanks…wa easier than I thought to set it up, have updated my wiki but still a work in progress.
Do you have documentation or references on how to setup rspamd?
What? I have opnSense how would I filter spam with it?
Zfs for some reasons is always loved by the self hosting experts.
Personally I don’t like it because it’s over complicated and not officially part of the Linux kernel.
20y of self hosting for me means Linux software raid (raid1 then moved to raid5) and mostly ext4, recently (=last 2 years) upgraded to btrfs on my data raid. Btrfs at least is integrated in the Linux kernel and while has some drawbacks (don’t do raid with btrfs, put btrfs on MD raid instead) its been super rock solid.
I would have kept ext4, but thought why not try btrfs, and it’s been so smooth that I had no reasons to go back.
Nope. Its much safer to crash in a today car. 70’s would break as well and break you more. Both would be totaled anyway in such a case.
Today’s cars are designed to crumple and protect you, older cars transmit more damage to your body.
In that case, you should definitely open the shop.
I think, tough, that your prices will be higher than normal retail, due to volumes and supply chain.
Also, the local “Wall-Mart” (or whatever corporation) would need to sell a very small loss for a few months to kill you, while subsidizing their loss with other shops in other locations…
You can’t win. But you can try and people will undoubtedly appreciate that
You mean including also staff wages? Would that also cover a wage for the owner? Or, in other words, a tiny bit of profit so the owner can live out of it?
At this point, try to put a cap on greed.
My blonde hair kept always confusing small boys. Are your hair yellow or white?
So, there is that, blonde is not a color, it’s a whole spectrum of colors from white, yellow and brown.
We don’t need fake ai written posts against AI.
And frankly the only believable thing is the AI hallucinating.
Even the point that auth was missing is not believable.
The 80% is useless, batteries are not built to be charged continuously. I suggest you use a smart plug that you turn on and off periodically
Update : my ISP does not provide GUA… So, whatever. Stick to IPv4 for the time being, no need to get complicated with IPv6 nat when I already have IPv4 nat working fine.
I actually have two ISP and one does support ip 6 with a GUA and that’s where I got confused… Unfortunately, it’s the one providing 20mb/sec FTTC that I use only for backup. The main one, the one providing 300mb/sec over FVA does not.
