I figured this when IKEA started throwing out their current model for £5 a pop. Judging by how fast their stock was gone, they‘ll show up on ebay for a hefty markup any time now…

It pops up on BundleHunt every once in a while.

MountainDuck supports this. They call it “cache on demand”. So you could setup an SFTP connection and use it via that. The next version of MountainDuck - v5 - should even support SMB.

On this Reddit thread they suggested SeaFile as their client explicitly supports selective sync. And also MountainDuck which can work with various protocols.

EDIT: Mountain Duck 5 even adds SMB support.

Similar here. As I don’t need multi-user support, I don’t bother with self-hosting some tool.

Bookmarks go to Safari where they’re synced between all my Apple devices and pop up automatically in the address bar.

And long-term bookmarks (news articles, references, etc.) go into Anybox which keeps an offline copy of the website so I can still read it in 10-20 years.

You know you can basically implement Healthchecks.io completely in Zabbix using zabbix-sender or any compatible implementation of it? (Or find a better way, e.g. querying the timestamp of a logfile or even check the logfile for “OK” or “ERROR” lines… lots of ways possible.)

For me it’s the other way around. In Check_MK I was constantly writing new custom checks and it was all manual code and overall felt like Nagios on steroids (what it was back then) - just not in a good way.

In Zabbix you can do everything in the UI without messing around in the file system. And things like translating SNMP results to readable text works throughout the system without having to include a Python file and then call it from within your various other checks. All the alerting logic can be clicked together and easily amended in the UI. It’s so much more comfortable once you’ve figured it out.

But these 3 are all about metrics, right? While they’re great to monitor and analyse numbers (ping times, disk space, memory, etc.), they aren’t that great with e.g. plaintext error messages in log files. That’s how I remember it from a few years ago, at least.

Also: SpotNet (with e.g. SpotWeb as a client)

Apart from the SMR vs. CMR, if your NAS will run 24/7 you need to make sure to use 24/7 capable drives or find a way to flash a 24/7-specific firmware/setting to a consumer drive. Normal consumer drives (e.g. WD Green) tend to have a lot of energy saving features, e.g. they park the drive heads after a few seconds of inactivity. This isn’t a problem with normal use as an external drive that only gets connected once in a while. But in a 24/7 NAS the drive will wake up lots of times and park again, wake up, park again … and these cycles kill the drive pretty fast.

Money. It’s much better if you can sell the same thing over and over again.

Apart from all the online tools there are also offline website builders like blocs (macOS/iPad - but there are similar tools for Windows as well) that let you design your website and will spit out the files you then just need to upload to any provider of your liking. It’s basically a WYSIWYG static site generator.

Sounds like GitHub Pages.

Apart from that, I like GRAV for small website projects. It works completely without a database (or in other words: it uses the filesystem as the database that it basically is) and backups/restores are simple copying everything to the right place.

Part of the experience to me is reading all the comments and leaving my 2¢. So I’m using the Share → Embed workaround so far.

I’m on macOS and iOS and love News Explorer. It syncs my reading progress to all other devices and also has a nice reader mode that pulls the article from the website in full. Apart from that it’s pretty bare-bones, but does exactly what I want.

What’s next? Do they maybe also want landlords to cancel renting agreements over this? Supermarkets to not sell to these people?

Instead of the full-blown Mastodon, you should also look at #GoToSocial which is compatible and pretty light-weight. (Doesn’t come with a web UI, so you need to use client apps.)

EDIT: Here’s my docker-compose file.

You can create dashboards with only the useful data you need!

While dashboards are nice to look at, I very much prefer to just configure Zabbix to only notify me in case of actual problems and leave me alone the rest of the time. 😉 Also, Zabbix has capabilities to show graphs and create dashboards as well. No need for Grafana here.

At least in Germany, many of these copyright claims have no real legal grounds and wouldn’t hold up in an actual trial. All cases I’ve read into so far ended with a settlement - as the private person was too afraid of even more legal fees. Or were dropped completely after a while (full of empty threats) if the people never engaged with the other party.
