Oh my god I need LubeLogger. I only looked it up because of the… questionable… name but I currently use Fuelio and I hadn’t even thought to look up a self hosted thing.

Data Hoarder 💾

• Fleet: 6–10 devices · More than 50 TB
• Motivation: Fun / the hobby itself, Customization & full control, Independence from Big Tech & subscriptions
• My MVPs: Immich, PeerTube, Ghost, Actual Budget, Home Assistant

I create videos for YouTube/PeerTube and backup all of the raw footage. The actual storage count is currently 130TB in my main NAS with about 250TB for an offsite cold storage backup (as most of my data doesn’t change much) and on-site live-ish backup. I also have the benefit of being able to get reputable used commercial grade HDDs from work for $10/TB, even right now, it makes it way too easy. Shameless plug of my PeerTube instance: https://joeltube.com/ or @JoelKalich on YouTube.

I dunno. There’s already a separate Linux VR DB, as Proton doesn’t really do that for games that support flat-screen and VR. https://db.vronlinux.org/. Unfortunately it isn’t kept that up to date, I requested American Truck Sim be added over a year ago now, and it still hasn’t been.

Anyway, as we see more and more enshittification (not that I would expect ProtonDB to enshittify any time soon) I’d rather my services and websites to be more spread out as compared to all on one website. I can type in one URL to check on flat-screen games and a different one to check on Steam Frame compatibility, it’s no big deal.

Why are permissions so damn confusing? I say this as someone who knows why permissions are needed, such as location to find nearby devices. But why must we keep track of “permission X is for thing unrelated to X” in our heads? Now I haven’t tried to make a permissions system for the masses, so I guess I can’t say too much, but it doesn’t seem that difficult to just make the permission name relate to what it does and provide a short synopsis for it.

Twice a year is crazy. I suppose most of my maintainence is adding drives (I’m a creator and I definitely totally need to archive all of my footage), but I also run a fair few apps that have needed manual update steps, so I do all my updates manually so I can fix stuff if it breaks.

Coworkers have been adding these to our projects and I have noticed no difference in the usefullness of LLMs, so I suppose it’s nice to be validated.

You want a timeline feed viewable via web and an app. Immich does that. I don’t get it.

I feel like this is a case of not wanting to do the “difficult” thing because it sounds difficult when really avoiding the “difficult” thing is more difficult than just doing the “difficult” thing.

I was replacing the power steering rack on my P2 Volvo XC70 recently. I really didn’t want to drop the subframe because that sounded like a lot of work. Eventually I realized dropping the subframe was the easier way to get the power steering rack out and, in the end, it was way easier to just drop the subframe. It was like 10 more bolts and wasn’t that hard to put back. In this analogy, Immich is dropping the subframe, just do it.

I’m not sure how much that costs where you’re from, but that might be offset by not having to pay for comprehensive insurance - again, if that’s an option where you’re from.

A 20 year old something or other that doesn’t interact with Home Assistant is your best bet for a free way to gain more freedom and trust. Bonus: you’ll save tens of thousands on the initial purchase. You’re basically being paid to have more freedom and trust

As always, I want to note that seafile is not compatible with existing files, you can’t just point it at a directory, you have to upload them to seafile, and then you can only access them via seafile (at least that’s how I understand it, correct me if I’m way off base).

File Browser Quantum is AWESOME, I’m shocked I don’t hear about it more often.

If 463 pages sold, why does your website say 0/1000 claimed? Are you lying or did you use an LLM to create a broken website?

I seriously do not understand this.

• OP claims it’s just for fun, yet it isn’t, as it’s for money.
• OP says they’ve made hundreds of bucks on this, yet zero of the thousand pages are claimed.
• OP says it’d be “interesting … to give people a tiny piece of a website” yet they aren’t giving away anything, it’s costs money.
• “What if every person got their own HTML” but limits it to 1000 so every person cannot get their own HTML.
• OP posts in the self hosting community, yet they aren’t even self hosting the website and, if I paid $1, I wouldn’t be self hosting my HTML page.

I feel like if OP were just honest about this they’d have better luck. Not good luck, but better luck.

How do I do thing

Have you considered not doing thing

Thought I was on Reddit for a second. Guess some things transferred over.

They were saying they were concerned about fire risk with their non-battery setup. They brought up this setup as if it’d alleviate that risk.

A 40Kwh battery is like 10 grand, I’m not sure why you brought that up. I’d be more likely to invest in a second battery and solar panel. It’s been up for over 23 weeks right now, I’d guess a second solar panel and battery could keeping it up nearly 100% of the time, and it’d cost under $100 for a 200wh battery and 30w panel.

Yeah, I’m not sure what relation that has to this solar powered website.

So… You’re saying that if there’s no power the website goes down.

Do you ever want to use a desktop PC or play RTS style games without a mouse and keyboard? Then yes, 100%, it’s the best thing for it. Otherwise it just seems to be a really solid controller.
