Optical Character Recognition

Like OCR?

Having a solution that works for you is never a bad thing.

Now it comes down to what you want to archive: Do you want something that just works? Great, you’re done - now go on and do some other things that you like, that’s perfectly fine. Or do you want to learn more about servers, virtualization, linux, networking and selfhosting in general? Then there are a million ways to get started.

I’d suggest to setup a little lab, if you haven’t already. Install Proxmox on your server and run CasaOS inside a virtual machine. Now you’ve learned about hypervisors and virtual machines. Afterwards you could create a second virtual machine to play around - maybe install debian and get used to the linux cli. Install docker manually, run some apps using docker-compose. Now you’re already doing some stuff that CasaOS does under the hood.

The possibilities are endless, the rabbit hole is deep. It can be a lot of fun, but don’t force youself to go down there if you don’t want to.

There’s being blunt, and there’s abuse. Linus attacks code, not people.

Maybe today, but certainly not in the past. I don’t doubt that Linus always had the best intentions for the kernel, but he nevertheless told other developers they should be retroactivly aborted. It’s hard for me to imagine that this version of Linus and a Linux CoC could’ve existed at the same time.

But I also get the impression that he did change quite a bit since then, now being blunt instead of abusive as you said. This shouldn’t be inherently incompatible with a CoC.

This does not actually work, right? Right?

Thanks for your response! It wasn’t my intention to sound overly critical. Congratulations on your spectacular growth and good luck for the future! I’ll definitly keep an eye on ChartDB.

Interesting project. I wonder though how a repo that’s merely a few months old and has only seen 117 issues in total does accumulate 9.8k stars? Seems a bit fishy to me.

This reminds me of nebula although nebula does require a central server to coordinate hosts.

Security is something you do

Like by reducing the attack surface on internal APIs?

I don’t even necessarily disagree with you, everybody has to decide themselves if this app offers enough upsides to be worth the downsides.

That being said, instantly calling OP stupid and their project crappy is just not the way to get your point across and in general considered a dick move.

Never thought I’d agree with Goldman Sachs.

Musk wrote that X “has no choice but to file suit against the perpetrators and collaborators” behind an advertiser boycott on his platform.

So he’s going to sue himself then?

If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go fuck yourself. Go fuck yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is.

I guess it was pretty clear. What a clown.

They’re saying that the proposed gender change (in the docs) will most likely not be accepted. That’s still bullshit, but to insinuate transphobia based on this comment alone goes too far IMHO.

Funny to seem him arguing against HibernateDelaySec because of possible data loss, yet if systemd-tmpfiles purges your fucking home directory it’s “documented behaviour”. The superiority complex of some people…

Oh hey, it’s me!

I use Wasabi S3, but only for my most critical data. For full backups including large media I setup a offsite NAS.

Regarding tooling I’m really happy with Restic (coming from Borg).

I’m currently having a good experience with MikroTik. I think their products provide a good combination of features and pricing. There are a “CRS317-1G-16S+” and a “CSS326-24G-2S+RM” in my rack and I have my eyes on the “CSS610-8P-2S+IN” as a efficient little POE switch.

I haven’t used Ubiquity, so I can’t compare these two brands.

For APs I’m currently using TP Link Omada with a selfhosted Omada Controller and for Routing, DNS, Firewall and stuff I use OPNsense.

“Well hello friends :^)”

If you try to spin up multiple services but get stuck on creating a directory, you’re moving too fast. I think you’ll need to start a bit slower and more structured.

Learn how to do basic tasks in the terminal and a bit about how linux works in general. There is a learning curve, but it will be fun! Then move on to docker and get one service up and running. Go on from there with everything you learned along the way and solve the other problems you’ll encounter - one at a time.

Do you want to build one yourself or are you mainly interested in off-the-shelf solutions? What’s your budget? Do you run your services as containers? Do you need hardware acceleration for streaming with Jellyfin/Plex?

I would like to already have some redundancy, can I use the hard drives as they are or will I have to do something to them besides adding other hard drives?

Why do you want redundancy? To keep your data available or to keep your data safe?
