I really dislike the name “Nothing”.

I personally use harbor freight steel ammo cans for almost all of my lithium batteries at this point, except for my active phone (which is not a pixel 6a)

You do not need to back up your OS, only your personal files.

Quadlets changed my life.

The (wildcard) certs are the same, as it’s what caddy is pulling via API. You can either build the cloudflare module into caddy via docker build, or use a prebuilt version. It doesn’t create two separate certs for local and remote.

It works really well for me, and is actually the most straight forward way to get valid certs for internal services I’ve found. Since they’re wildcard, my internal domains don’t get exposed through certificate authorities.

It would probably take days to rebuild the array.

It’s important to also note that RAID (or alternatives such as unRAID) are not backup systems and should not be relied on as such. If you have a severe brownout that fries more than two or three drives at once, for example, you will lose data if you’re not backing up.

Nah, as a fellow data hoarder you’re 100% correct. I have a couple of dozen disks, and I’ve had failures from both Seagate and WD, but the Seagates have failed much more often. For the past couple of years, I’ve only purchased WD for this reason. I’m down to two Seagate drives now.

I feel like many people with a distaste for WD got burned by the consumer drives (especially the WD Greens). WD’s DC line is so good though, especially HC530.

Efficiency still matters very much when self hosting. You need to consider power usage (do you have enough amps in your service to power a single GPU? probably. what about 10? probably not) and heat (it’s going to make you need to run more A/C in the summer, do you have enough in your service to power an A/C and your massive amount of GPUs? not likely).

Homes are not designed for huge amounts of hardware. I think a lot of self hosters (including my past self) can forget that in their excitement of their hobby. Personally, I’m just fine not running huge models at home. I can get by with models that can run on a single GPU, and even if I had more GPUs in my server, I don’t think the results (which would still contain many hallucinations) would be worth the power cost, strain on my A/C, and possible electrical overload.

You can use caddy to get internal https via cloudflare API, and no traffic needs to go through a cloudflare tunnel for that.

I don’t think it’s very relevant to the discussion of drug dealers using Graphene.

Yep, disabling it entirely allows for charging when the device is off, but otherwise, it is functionally useless and is disabled at the hardware level.

You can install Graphene from the browser, it’s really not a huge hassle to install especially if you do it right when you get the phone.

Yeah, it’s one of those things where I was vaguely aware of the hazard, but for some reason wasn’t consciously acknowledging it. Since I came to that realization, I’ve started to gather all of my lithium batteries to take stock and start to get rid of some.

I’m definitely more worried about the batteries I’ve forgotten about that ended up in boxes or drawers. Another thing to keep me up a night, yay.

I lost my model A1263 in a box during a move. I’ve been looking for it over the last couple of weeks once I was notified about this, but no luck. I actually emailed Anker to ask if there’s a risk of fire even in storage or not in use, and apparently it can happen even when not under any load and completely discharged.

I don’t even know if I still have it. Fingers crossed that my serial isn’t one of the affected ones, but I’ll keep looking and hoping that it doesn’t burn my house down.

It’s a proposal, not a for sure thing yet.

Molly is great.

Graphene is centered around security. I’ve heard bad things about Fairphone in that regard - the Graphene team even talks about them in the replies on that thread.

Sure, I was trying to correct the statement that it’s not possible at all though.

You can still torrent with Mullvad, it’s just gonna be slower because you have less peers. But it’s still 100% doable. They don’t block torrenting entirely…

This article isn’t about that, so clearly you did not read the article.
