It’s sarcasm because nobody should be held liable.

Seems like the electric companies should also pay a hefty fine, as they provided the needed infrastructure to enable the piracy. /s
I switched from portainer to dockge. Dockge makes updating a 1-click process which I love. Portainer is overkill for homelab, but I like how it lists things like images and networks.
I use zfs with Proxmox. I have it as a bind mount to Turnkey Fileserver (a default lxc template).
I access everything through NFS (via turnkey Fileserver). Even other VMs just get the NFS added to the fstab file. File transfers happen extremely fast VM to VM, even though it’s “network” storage.
This gives me the benefits of zfs, and NFS handles the “what if’s”, like what if two VMs access the same file at the same time. I don’t know exactly what NFS does in that case, but I haven’t run into any problems in the past 5+ years.
Another thing that comes to mind is you should make turnkey Fileserver a privileged container, so that file ownership is done through the default user (1000 if I remember correctly). Unprivileged uses wonky UIDs which requires some magic config which you can find in the docs. It works either way, but I chose the privileged route. Others will have different opinions.
Thanks for the suggestion. I ended up using a Raspberry Pi and an old computer monitor to run MagigMirror and MMM-ImmichSlideShow.
I tried ImmichFrame, too, and will revisit it in the future. For now MMM-ImmichSlideShow is working well.
That’s good
There are two types, CMR and SMR. You can read online about the differences. CMR is better because SMR tries to be all fancy in order to increase capacity, but at the cost of speed and data integrity.
It won’t be front and center in the specs of a particular drive, but you usually find the info somewhere.
I wouldn’t worry about higher capacity failing sooner. If you have 10x4TB vs 2x20TB, that’s 5x as many drives to go bad. So a 20TB drive would need a 5x worse fail rate to be considered worse. A pro of larger (fewer) drives is lower power consumption. 5-10 watts per drive doesn’t sound like much, but it adds up.
Good question, and I’m curious what the experts say. Surely it depends on the software that handles DHCP.
I’ve always set static addresses in the DHCP address range and it has always been reserved and never assigned to other devices. I’ve used ASUS and MikroTik for what it’s worth.
If you’re the type to set static addresses on the devices themselves, then that would certainly increase the risk of a conflict if it’s inside the address range.

I was about to say “of course you can trust it, it’s from The Internet Archive”, but the ArchiveTeam slogan is “We Are Going To Rescue Your Shit”. Now I wonder if they’re officially affiliated or not.
I don’t have a tech background. Currently hosting 25 different things in docker. I wonder if there are actually more non-tech people who do it, because tech industry people might want to take a break in their off time.
You could replace them with z-wave switches. The switches by default would control the respective lights they’re wired to, but you could use scenes to control the other switch. For example, 2x up on the canister light switch turns on the pendant light (and not the canister lights, unless you want that, too).
I have similar stuff programmed with Home Assistant using Node-Red, but the normal automation stuff would work, too.
Home Assistant/Node-Red sees that Scene 2 (or whatever) has been called for, and then does whatever you want.
Thank you! I’ve already updated.
Good question. HA Green looks pretty cool. With that processor, though, running something like Frigate might not work very well.
For me, I run HA on a normal computer that I turned into a “server”. Home Assistant was a gateway drug and now I run all sorts of other stuff in addition to it. I use Proxmox (as described in the article) so HA is a virtual machine, and there’s a Debian virtual machine with a bunch of Docker stuff going. Having Docker run in a VM makes backups much easier.
For HA alone, the Green looks pretty cool. Most people probably won’t outgrown it, but I certainly have.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
Click the “Documentation” tab and it has instructions on how to get it set up. 👍
I have Frigate set up with an Amcrest IP2M. I ended up buying a second wifi AP because my 2.4GHz was really clogged up after turning it on (probably related to a bunch of other stuff already on the same network).
It “phones home” a lot so I put it on a separate vlan and disabled internet access for it.
I definitely don’t have this option that I can find. Do I have to reinstall HACS I wonder?
I’m doing this with Immich as the photo storage software, MagicMirror OS on a raspberry pi, and the MMM-ImmichSlideShow module to show the pictures on an old computer monitor.
If you’re new to self hosting stuff, this will be sort of difficult to get set up. If you’re comfortable with the command line, config files, docker, etc, then it’s worth the effort.
And as a bonus, presumably you have a nice file filled with historic dates and times!
