FBI, open up!

Jk. Thank you for your service

Compressed air can spin the fans fast enough to cause damage unfortunately.

Did you use compressed air to clean out the fans?

It’s possible to fry circuitry if you artificially rotate the fans too fast, as this generates an electric field more powerful than the fans and their attached components are rated for.

Probably rare to cause damage with modern computers but an old PC might be more susceptible to this type of damage.

Am I understanding correctly that if users had 2FA, the vulnerability would be prevented from gaining access?

Fixed it. Thanks

I was in your position recently and decided to install PVE from scratch and restore VMs from backup.

I had a fairly complex PVE config so it took some additional work to get everything up and running. But it was absolutely worth it.

I don’t work in IT at all. My self hosting journey started when I got sick of feeling powerless in the face of big tech companies who are increasingly ripping off customers or violating their right to privacy. There’s also the general mistrust that comes from my data being repeatedly breached or leaked because share holder profits are more important than investing in basic security.

Yeah I would suggest buying another NIC. They’re cheap, its good security, and it opens up another port upstream for other uses.

I use the pcie coral and it works fine with plenty of processing to spare although I believe mine coast e closer to $50. I have 6 amcrest PoE cameras. You should just buy a PoE switch and directly connect all cameras to it. Then link that directly to your frigate box and lock down access. Any amcrest camera should work well with frigate. I believe they all support rtsp protocol.

When I say local I mean automated PVE backups the same as it would be through PBS. If that makes any difference.

I have a remote pbs but the backups aren’t current because there was a connection error. I have Proxmox backups locally to a USB thumbdrive. That’s what I was going to restore from.

So I use Fusion360 for the technical building of components; framing, drywall, cabinets.

I export this to 3dsmax and flesh it out for archviz. Rendering with V-ray.

Unfortunately there aren’t any good options for pirating either of these softwares.

3dsmax and vray also have very steep learning curves.

There are also better alternatives than Fusion360 which include BIM features, but they’re insanely expensive unless you own a profitable architecture firm.

This is the way. Frigate just had a major update and the UI is now amazing.

Are they roughly 55GB compressed?

Appreciate the thorough reply. Mind sharing which service you used to download your Spotify tracks?

I feel you but I’ve already got curated playlists of over 3,000 songs me and friends have spent a few years putting together. I actually don’t mind the idea of pulling each artists whole disco as lidarr does. My current roadblock is the lack of good resources/tools that automate the process.

Is there a way to automate downloads? As mentioned in my original post I’m hoping to essentially mirror a few Spotify playlists and have my server automatically download either all of the songs on the playlist or all of the songs by the artists appearing on the playlists.

Damn I wish I would’ve known sooner. Isn’t there a concern of not matching the same drive similar to how you can’t mix and match RAM sticks?

+1. Resolve is leaps and bounds ahead of Premiere and even After Effects when you consider Resolve has Fusion built in. I work on high level projects and often run into huge issues trying to work with Premiere projects. Most editors still use it simply because it was the first NLE they picked up. It lacks proper color management and its ability to export out to other software whether for post audio, color, or VFX is abysmal. I switched to Resolve about 5 years ago and while it isn’t without its faults, I’ll take it over Adobe bullshit any day. Sometimes I have to open editors premiere files to troubleshoot and I want to blow my brains out. Easily can wipe out an entire day just troubleshooting premiere projects. It’s funny because when I first got into the industry I was using Premiere and they were trying to push me to use Avid. I felt the same way about Avid as I currently feel about premiere.
