Usually a lurker.Maybe I should've just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment...

If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.

  • Cheapest way to back up a lot of data?

    Jump

  • The tape drive costs more or less 2000€ (without VAT), the tapes cost about 80-100 for a 15tb drive (and compressed capacity doesnt count as the to be backed up data is probably not just a database or text.

    Don't think there are much economic options beside finding the cheapest S3 storage or a secondary backup server.

  • After RAM and SSDs, PSUs and CPU coolers are next in line for price hikes

    Jump

  • Companies (e.g. HP, Dell, Lenovo) will still buy PCs. The individual like you and me will be a drop in a bucket as big as the whole ocean.

  • After Micron's greedy decision, SK Hynix could also exit consumer DRAM and NAND business

    Jump

  • Isnt some AI bro hoarding a fuckton of CPUs because there arent enough servers to put them into?

  • Self-hosting in 2026 isn't about privacy anymore - it's about building resistance infrastructure

    Jump

  • One step ahead.

  • I've been completely isolated from the internet and news for the last two months. What'd I miss?

    Jump

  • Not enough fire.

  • You basically mean a supply-chain attack?I mean...Sure that's a valid concern but on the other hand, Bitwarden is OSS, the client and AFAIK the server components.So the threat looks to me identical for Bitwarden as it is for Keepass.

    But it's probably easier to infiltrate the actual user system and wait for the unlock of the vault to happen for exfiltratration than just stealing the vault with argon2id salted hashes and trying to crack that open.It may be of concern for a state/big corp person of interest but you and me? Probably less so.

    I'll continue paying for Bitwarden.Not of interest having to mess with passsword safekeeping.Same goes for email.Yes, I could host the server at home and use an SMTP relay for sending emails from a reputable emailing IP but the email provider I currently use at the price is okay enough for me to not really care. So I don't :p

  • FYI as my former comment hasnt federated yet: I delete my comment because I suspected my edits wouldnt go through fast enough for everyone to see.So i deleted it and reposted as a new comment: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/23665757

    Anyway: Could you elaborate what you mean exactly?

  • Anyone else on here a "Reddit refugee"?

    Jump

  • Same here.My first account was banned for (IMO bogus reasons)My now second but primary account is still active sometimes but I only lurk 99% of the time and almost never voteI only use Lemmy as of now primarily.

  • Anyone else on here a "Reddit refugee"?

    Jump

  • I would probably even say: Who wasnt?You either came from Twitter, Reddit or some other major social media as a primary user.I don't believe someone just was old enough to join the internet world and decided to just join lemmy/fediverse at first sight.

  • Imagine.Having to dumb down your writing just because you don't want users accuse you of being a bot/intelligence agency

  • Idc. I like sharing about my hobby.

    I shared so much data about myself and what I host, an intelligence officer could probably hack me easier by just reading my posts, than a malware attacker could ever achieve.

  • I don't have worries about password managers like bitwarden as the vault is zero knowledge and encrypted with a, to bitwarden, unknown key.

    And I trust that bitwarden can secure their infrastructure better than me.

    About your question what I host at home:OPNsenseVeeam Backup and Replication (not (F)OSS but I like it and it's reliable. We also use it at work so it helps my profession)The *arr SuiteHortusFox (plant management)ImmichJellyfinSyncthingResilioUnifi Network Application (Also not FOSS)Uptime KumaWallos (subscription tracker. Pretty awesome overview!)PiHole

    Can't remember when I started.I believe it was around 2019 or 2020.It started with a Raspberry because I wanted a NAS but was too cheap for a proper NAS appliance like a Synology NAS.Fucked the install up a few timesBricked the OS install during an upgrade (had 2 USB powered hard disks plugged in. But the PI had not enough to supply both and itself during writing to it so the network share sometimes failed)Installed PlexFound out Plex doesnt allow transcoding with the free versionFound out Jellyfin and installed it on the Pi.Bad experience with Jellyfin and anime releases as they use ASS/SSA subtitlesLater upgraded to an i5-11th Gen NUC to get HWA transcoding on JellyfinFucked up the Intel driver situation but HWA somehow workedInplace upgraded the NUC from Debian 10 to Debian 12 and restored my docker container from backup (I assumed it would take like 4h or so to replace the SSD, install debian, install the core packages (like docker, etc.) and restore the files. In the end it took about 8h (after an 8h workday) and finished around 3am. But it worked. Very well on top.

    The hobby is expensive but rewarding.My stack:HPE 1930-24G PoE switchUnifi AP miniHP ProDesk SFF with an i5-7th gen (manually upgraded to something we were throwing out. Harvested the CPU. Crosschecked the BIOS support with the quickspecs by HP) (Proxmox with OPNsense virtualized)Intel i5-11th NUC (Docker host)Intel i3-13th NUC (primary Proxmox host. Holds the Veeam Backup server)Raspberry Pi 4 4GB (docker host with the sole purpose of doing pihole DNS)uGreen DXP4800+ with 4x15TB in RAIDZ2 (swapped the OS with a TrueNAS Scale SSD.)

    Newcomer:GL-iNet Slate 7 as my travel router. Configured a Wireguard VPN on it with the OPNsense guide. Worked very well.I have to commend the guide writer on it. But the steps were a bit confusing if you werent reading it carefully.

    Picture of my stack (literally) :)

    Jump

  • Some person has them in the wealthy neighbourhood and their peacocks/peafowl flew away.One came to our office balcony (about 20m high) for a visit. :DWas also in the local newspaper.

  • There has been attempts to do an emulation layer for Xbox One games on Windows with XWine1.

    Will be interesting.

  • How often do you sleep at work?

    Jump

  • Not.

  • Would you play a slow game today?

    Jump

  • Aka idle games

  • Alternative to Gmail? I currently use my own domain for email, but i miss the priority inbox

    Jump

  • Nvmd.What I had in memory was false.The provided IPs but not decrypted mails or access to the inbox.

    Besides that they also suspended inboxes.
