  • You have no choice

  • I don't get Firefox at work, and the other day Chrome popped open a new tab on it's own telling me to try out Gemini. I asked Gemini why this new tab had opened pushing Gemini on me when I didn't ask it to, and it told me the most likely reason was that my computer is infected with a virus.

    Not wrong I guess?

  • Selfhosting Sunday! What's up?

    Jump

  • What's up? Not Grafana. I did docker compose pull on the stack (without version pinning) then recreated the containers, and now it's fucked. Or maybe it's not because the logs are fine but it only serves the web app but 404s on any connection to the Grafana backend.

    Now I need to do some investigation into any recent changes to try to work out what's going wrong.

  • Good effort

  • I have! But not until this moment.

  • Reddit stock drops 9% as Google AI content deal nears expiration

    Jump

  • Is it regional or for VPN users or something? I still use old reddit when I need to from search results, and I don't get asked to log in.

  • If you could see one statistic above every person's head, that is updated in real time and never goes away, what would you choose?

    Jump

  • Or maybe if you knew your own date you could do reckless shit. Although you might just spend 20 years in a coma before you die.

  • When does upgrading you PC become a "new" PC?

    Jump

  • Yeah I think upgrading the mobo would be more accurate, when it's a big enough change that you need to replace RAM and the CPU as well.

  • It kind of ruins the concept if you can't use the information to change the outcome. Or maybe just makes it sad, every time you try to save someone they die at that time anyway. Then over time you work out that the clock knew what actions you were going to do, and by trying to interfere with the people with short times you actually caused their deaths.

    Jump

  • It would be interesting to see this update in realtime. You see someone about to get in their car, with a death time 5 mins from now. You call out "hey", they stop, see you were talking to someone else. The date updates to 30 years in the future, as that momentary pause meant they won't be in the place they would have when someone runs a red light.

    Somewhere unseen, someone's number changes from 20 years away to 5 mins away.

  • Privacy respecting registrars

    Jump

  • Ah I just assumed because they all look the same, but maybe you're right!

  • Privacy respecting registrars

    Jump

  • Yeah I guess so, but every site seems to be a Shop App now so it's hardly more than one company anyway 😅

  • Privacy respecting registrars

    Jump

  • Who is behind it and how do you know they are trustworthy? I wasn't able to find much info but it seems it's just some company (not a non profit / charity or anything). I know they have paid plans but it seems they also have an incentive or at least an ability to sell your purchase data?

  • just realized whoogle is dead now

    Jump

  • Yip. It might not have been clear but my point was that if you have a SearXNG instance set up and running well, then Kagi may well not be worth the cost since you've already got most of its strengths.

  • just realized whoogle is dead now

    Jump

  • If you're there with Searx then it's pretty similar to how Kagi works. Kagi sends requests to various search providers and has some of its own index then shows results based on the various sources.

    I found Searx/Searxng slow, 5-6 seconds per query (to get a response from each source), though it seems others have it working faster. Might have been some IP or rate limiting issue.

    Kagi has easy ways to raise/lower rankings and users can report AI slop pages to have them removed, but all in all Searx gives pretty good results.

  • Well I'm not trying to push you, you make your own choice, but you could just not use it at work (or only use it at work) and have something different on other devices.

    It just seems like a lot, especially when part of it goes to Russia and burn-the-world AI bros

    Yeah I get that, but I guess it depends on how you count. Kagi has some of their own index, but mostly it's a search aggregator (like searx). They pay for queries to google etc, and use the Russian Yandex for Russian results because it's apparently the only one that gets good results in Russian. From my understanding, not searching in Russian/Russia location wouldn't trigger a search to Yandex so wouldn't give them money, so I guess it's more a principle thing than literal money to Yandex/Russia.

    For AI it's the same, they pay per query. No queries means no money to AI companies, so it's more about principles than actual your money going to them (if you don't use it). Kagi doesn't force AI results on you (by default it will show AI if you end your search with a question mark, but you can disable that too).

  • I'm using ntfy for notifications. I have some other notifications go through it too so it's not only used for that.

  • Homepage - Selfhosting Dashboard

    Jump

  • I guess I just feel like if I need to know something (something is offline etc) then I need a notification, I don't want to have to be checking a dashboard. I use Uptime Kuma for this.

    I see your point with Jellyfin, but I also have the clicks to find active streams as muscle memory and it's not needed that often so I don't think I'd go setting up a dashboard just for that.

  • I used to go for a dashboard like this, but one day I realised none of the stats are actually helpful for anything and stopped using it.

  • Do you need unlimited searches? You get 300 searches a month for $5.

    Plus it's 10% off if you pay annually.

  • Latest success Jellyfin rocks!

    Jump

  • Oh for sure Kodi would be easier, I was just clarifying that there are reasons to pick Jellyfin over Kodi even if it's only ever internal to your network.
