  • Journiv + Immich update: People Tracking with Immich face data

    Jump

  • The readme concerning the LLM/AI is downright terrible. Which portion were generated with LLM? There is no scope for what the LLM is used, so can we assume that everything is vibe-coded at this point?

  • Big Tech is turning you into a digital tenant, but there is a way to evict them

    Jump

  • No but they have been steering towards practices that makes people uncomfortable.

    They are slowly replacing part of their ecosystem with proprietary modules or modules with permissive license and people have seen this behaviour enough to know what the end goal is

  • How/what to start self-hosting?

    Jump

  • I think it's worth learning, but I am tech literate. Using something like unraid or trueNAS is also a good way to start as it streamlines a lot of things.

    But I like to know what's going on, so Proxmox is good for me.

  • Homelab for DevOps experience?

  • 1 single HDD? I'd recommend you RAID up some more... or at least take my recommendation on testing your backups

    RAID is not a backup solution, but an availability one. If your system doesn't need high availability, a single HDD is acceptable if you can live with a few hours/days of downtime.

    I am saying that because the prices of any storage is insane nowadays and I want people to see that 1 HDD is good enough to get started, either for homelabbing or for learning a more professional environment.

  • Proxmox can be daunting for beginners. I prefer it myself because it is free, but it took me a while to be comfortable in it and even then, I do basic stuff.

  • Cisco announces record revenue and 4,000 layoffs in the same day

  • It should be case by case. Simple as that.

  • Louis Rossmann taunts Bambu Lab by hosting banned 3D Printer firmware fork, dares $1 billion company to sue him — more creators pledge support and boycotts, Snapmaker donates equipment to embattled de

    Jump

  • This is not an ideal situation to begin with. I stopped upgrading my P1S firmware at 1.07.00.00 and I use OrcaSlicer in LAN mode.

    At least you have control over the machine.

  • X1C at least has a custom 3rd party firmware. So you can keep control of your machine at the very least.

    Jump

  • I bought a Creality K1 before I received my P1S as a gift and the setup was pretty easy.

    Other printers are there or getting there in ease of use, but Bambu Lab clearly had a headstart and used that to try and close their ecosystem

  • Yes but unless they get challenged in court, they will continue to do so.

  • Their slicer is forked from Prusa slicer, which is forked from Slic3r which is AGPL.

    Unless they write their own slicer from scratch, they are stuck with the AGPL license. They tried to mitigate that by adding poorly implemented user authentication code.

    The dev used their AGPL code to create the Orca Slicer fork and now, Bambu Lab is mad because it exposed their shitty security and poor attempt at closing their ecosystem.

  • Replacing Tailscale with a 2-VPS WireGuard setup (No port forwarding)

    Jump

  • I am a neophyte in homelabbing. What is Netbird doing exactly?

    I read the github page and didn't really understand what is the use case for that.

  • Replacing Tailscale with a 2-VPS WireGuard setup (No port forwarding)

    Jump

  • This is an interesting article, but the crux of the setup isn't described : what is the configuration on your home server?

    Creating a wireguard tunnel is pretty simple, but managing how everything is handled behind the VPN is more challenging.

  • [Jeff Geerling] I'm never buying a Bambu Lab 3D printer again

    Jump

  • Bambu are not the only easy to setup anymore, but they did influence the trend.

    They also have MakerWorld/Bambu handy that makes it really easy to start a print from anywhere.

    So they are extremely easy to use.

    But they are trying to leverage that to close their ecosystem and lock users in with shady practices..

  • GrapheneOS says Google is making life harder for rival operating systems and devices

    Jump

  • The issue is that a lot of everyday services depends on Google.

    If your bank decides it integrates with Google Play Services, well fuck you, your degoogled device won't work anymore and you'll have to switch banks or forego using your device for banking.

    Every corpo is pushing hard to interwind themselves with your day to day so that they become the gatekeepers of your life and rent seek.

    It's easy for us to find an alternative because we are tech litterate, but not everyone has the knowledge to do so and it is increasingly hard to do so.

  • GrapheneOS says Google is making life harder for rival operating systems and devices

    Jump

  • GrapheneOS uses Google hardware and depends on Google publishing the Device Tree Blob to create their software over.

    By branching with Motorola, it gives them more viability for when Google decide they won't publish the DTB anymore (it will happen).

    But GrapheneOS is still dependant on Motorola not being dicks.

  • I stopped updating my P1S (a gift I received) at 1.07.00.00 and use Orca Slicer. Best I can do in that situation.

  • There is a local initiative going around for age verification software and I am baffled that anybody support that, and moreso that parents created a software and the initiative.
