Can’t speak for OP, but the Vault software itself is fine. It’s their recent change in licensing that has a lot of people upset and looking for alternatives:

https://www.hashicorp.com/blog/hashicorp-adopts-business-source-license

That is why today we are announcing that HashiCorp is changing its source code license from Mozilla Public License v2.0 (MPL 2.0) to the Business Source License (BSL, also known as BUSL) v1.1 on all future releases of HashiCorp products. HashiCorp APIs, SDKs, and almost all other libraries will remain MPL 2.0.

BSL 1.1 is a source-available license that allows copying, modification, redistribution, non-commercial use, and commercial use under specific conditions. With this change we are following a path similar to other companies in recent years.

If you don’t get any other answers:

I run OpenWRT on my router (x86 hardware), and have Adguard Home and Wireguard installed on it.

AdGuard has its own webUI, and Wireguard peers can be managed through LuCI in OpenWRT. It also supports OpenVPN as well as other VPN types.

So you could run a VM with OpenWRT and get all that.

Does nextcloud deck have recurring tasks yet? I didn’t think it did.

Just checked, and no, it doesn’t appear to.

Back when I had roommates, we used a Kanban board. Trello is the “name brand” you may be familiar with, but there’s lots of self-hostable alternatives:

Nextcloud has Decks if you’re running that. If not, there’s also Wekan, Tagia, Planka, or Vikunja.

Most of my devices I was able to flash it right to it (or TFTP boot the installer and go through the steps via console cable). On x86, you just flash a boot image with dd. The hardest “install” was to a batch of enterprise APs where I had to attach a programming clip to its flash chip and use a Rapberry Pi to burn the image. After that, though, I could update them normally

If you’ve reached this point in your OpenWRT install, turn around. lol. I only kept going because I thought I was bidding $12 on a single Aruba AP-105 and ended up getting a lot of 20 (for $12), so I had to figure out some use for them.

Usage is pretty straightforward through the web UI (LuCI). For some more complex configs, it’s sometimes challenging to figure out the UCI syntax to configure (when I was playing around with B.A.T.M.A.N for example) but otherwise is pretty nice.

I read on OPNSense guide it needs 2gb ram

Good to know, thanks. I haven’t deployed it in years (have been using OpenWRT which will run on a potato). Getting ready to build a new router/firewall myself, but I don’t think the 2 GB is gonna be a problem. Have been debating sticking with OpenWRT or going to OPNSense.

Aside from being a little power hungry, then that should do the job. opnSense or OpenWRT should run really well.

Yeah, it would make a beefy router for sure. Wouldn’t be very power-efficient, but would handle the job well.

Outside of that, you’re most limited by the 512 MB RAM. Adding a larger drive would be an easy/cheap upgrade (though it may be SATA II speeds or possibly SATA I).

If you use OpenWRT for your router OS, you can also install AdGuard and get a bit more use out of it.

If you can add an HBA for better SATA speeds, and have room in the case, it might make a halfway decent NAS (or backup NAS).

Not sure then. I think Emby, or at least the way mine’s setup, only uses tvdb and moviedb for metadata. Assuming JF is similar. So if the show doesn’t exist there, it may just pull the next closest match regardless?

AFAIK, you only need to set one of those. I usually set IMDB ID since tvdb and moviedb can pick up on that.

Maybe someone else has some tips.

Not sure in JF, but in Emby I can click the menu for the show in the library and choose “Identify”.

Usually setting the correct title there is enough, but if it keeps getting mis-identified, I’ll set the IMDB/TVDB/ etc IDs directly.

True, but that doesn’t stop them from being propagandized as “piracy”.

Everything that gives people non-gatekept access to any media is considered “piracy” by the powers that be.

That propaganda image is from the 80s.

Re: NFL

Try this docker-compose file: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/docker-compose.yml

Here’s the docs for pict-rs: https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/pict-rs/src/branch/main/pict-rs.toml

Everything in the config file has an env var you can set. The most important one is the PICTRS__SERVER__API_KEY

To add on to this answer:

If they’re blocking Wireguard/OpenVPN at the protocol level, there may not be anything you can do (running on a different port, etc).

If HTTPS works, between a cloud VPS and your home connection, you might be able to setup Nginx + VPN-WS on your cloud host to make a websocket-based VPN.

https://github.com/unbit/vpn-ws

I haven’t tried this, but it looks solid enough. Just make sure you configure Nginx correctly for authentication since it doesn’t do that on its own (intentionally since most web servers already have a solid authentication framework / plugin system).

You may also try SSH port forwarding. Basically your home device maintains a persistent connection to the cloud server over SSH and forwards one or more ports (its SSH, for example) over that, and the cloud server makes that available.

Thanks!

Ah, Kiosk mode, I think, is literally brand new. There was an issue/request he was working on for that, and I did a build from that branch yesterday. As I was building my Docker image from that, it was literally getting new commits as I was building it. Talk about bleeding edge haha.

I’ll check that out again now that he may have merged it into main. Mine only has the configuration URL string to preset the options/location. You still have to click “fullscreen” on the weather window thing.

This one is in JS. I was referring to the parent project that required IIS and seems to be in C# (I didn’t dig too deep into it). That’s where I bailed out. If there were Docker instructions for that one, I wouldn’t have seen them as IIS is basically an instant deal breaker for me lol. Too much pain and misery in my past to ever want to deal with that again 😆

Update: Yep, latest release works amazing, including Kiosk mode. No need for my custom build anymore.

Oh, I’m not adding it to HA, just curious how to have just the weather panel is ws4kp to display for embedding without all the settings/controls.

Dumb question, but how to do you get just the weather panel to display without the settings form below and such? Setting it up in an iframe is one of the things I wanted to do with it aside from a kiosk-style, fullscreen display.

I looked at that one, and the demo was cool. When I looked at the hosting steps, though, it mentioned IIS and I pretty much noped out. Lol

Thanks for the post. I just bought 4 of them as a stopgap.

Nice. I was looking at the light jazz ones from TWCClassics: https://twcclassics.com/audio/playlists-october-1997.html

Updated the post with some screenshots from my install.
