That’s a shame. TTeck pretty much built my Homelab.

Oh, I just watched that episode of Serial Experiments Lain.

Meme asside. This “I’m miserable so everyone around me must be too” thing you’ve got going on is self centered at best. Buy some frozen peas and go feed som ducks or what ever you need to self actualise and come back when you’re feeling better.

The cohort age 18-29 as a whole were under the national average. But men aged 18-29 we’re just barely under the national average while women were massively under the nation average. edit although true it can’t be inferred from this graph alone

I thought the headline was not conveying the emphasise. “We’re going to be ok” says member of the owning class.

My initial inception of this box was to have it request a static IP so I knew “box.ip”. Then tape then tape some thing like this:

Box.ip Service1:port Service2:port …

Onto the case. Then in NPM have it proxy requests to “box.ip:8096” to “tailscale.ip:8096”. But alas, I couldn’t figure it out. I could get 1 service to work but not multiple.

I couldn’t ask someone to write the config for me, but if you’re certain it’s doable then I’ll learn to write a config. Thank you for the offer. I’m guessing for each service I tell nginx to “listen” at “port” instead of only listening to ports 80,443 and 81.

MDNS seems like an interesting solution though, I’m going to read about that now actually, thank you for highlighting that solution to me. If I could get that working that would be ideal. I’ll have to check if the expected devices are compatible but that would make everyone’s life easier if I could just setup a cronjob on startup.

UK here, get off our lawn. Transphobia is our chief export.

Thank you for the reading material, it’ll be tonight project. I think I’m just going to tell people if they want to join in the family immich/mealie/etc they’ll just have to let me into their router. They’ll get memorable addresses out of it and adblocking too. I’m pretty sure that setup is comfortably within my skill set. I thought long and hard about opening ports but the security needed is beyond me currently. Down side is cost and I’ll be managing a bunch of boxe. But I can add updating them into the monthly maintenance and if/when they come back they can be repurposed into other projects.

I tried /locations but my service would rewrite the URL and break itself. I’d navigate to “box.ip/immich” and immich would change the address to “box.ip/login” and hang.

I’d need to learn how to have npm lock “box.ip/immich” and let immich append “/login”. I’ll leave my test VM up and just chip away at it. I think I need the “rewrite” flag but I’m getting dangerously close to just learning how to write an nginx config instead of having npm do it for me.

Thanks again for the pointers

Audiobooks, audiobooks, audiobooks. I read a lot as a kid/teen so maybe I have that going for me, but into my adult years and the invention of YouTube I didn’t read quite so much.

Then audiobooks entered my life, 1 a month with audible is easy to achieve as bed time reading. Then I added them to chores. I’m un/fortunate enough to work a mindless job so I added them there too mixed in with music. Now I smash a couple books a week and still have an unhealthy YouTube habit.

Yeah, that’s a fair description. I am not comfortable exposing ports currently, I don’t think I have the skill to do it securely and my Homelab is definately not secure enough.

Not to get side tracked, and to highlight the horror, my media library is chmod 777 until I figure permissions across LXCs.

Can you imagine my fiancée’s dissapointment when I showed her my “finger tricks”…

I couldn’t say where police corruption is worse if I’m honest, I would guess its worse in America. But, Police violence is absolutely worse in America.

Regardless, I think the take away is: “whatever the intention, guns don’t equal civil liberties”.

I understood your point. I was showing that not only does America have “a lot” of government overreach, it has “more” government overreach. An Australian is less likely to be shot by another of its citizens and less likely to be imprisoned, enslaved, or killed by its government.

As a counter point, America has fewer gun restrictions and more convicts than Australia. Gun laws and government overreach do not seem connected.

Oh, routing, I remember watching an “off site back up” video where they set up IP tables, or IP forwarding, or some such, so when their parents tried to access jellyfin locally it was routed over tailscale. Maybe I’m misremembering though, I’m not confident enough to start thinking about it seriously, so I logged it as “that’s possible” and moved on.

That way I just have to keep one instance of jellyfin/immich/etc up to date. It’s all a bit beyond my ken currently but it’s the way I’m trying to head. At least until I learn a better way.

Ideally, I give someone a pi all set up. They plug it in go to service.domain.xyz and it routes to me. Or even IP:Port would be fine, I’ll write them down and stick it to their fridge.

My parents and I run each others’ off-site back up (tailscale-syncthing), but their photo and media services are independent from mine. I just back up their important data, and they return the favour, but we can’t access or share anything.

Guides like yours are great for showing what’s possible. I often find myself not knowing what I don’t know so don’t really know where to start learning what I need to learn.

What a write up, thank you for documenting this.

I understand a lot of people in this hobby do it professionally too, so a lot is assumed to be common knowledge us outsiders just don’t have.

While my system of using tailscale’s magic dns to use lxc:port works fine for my fiancée and I, expanding this a family wide system would prove challenging.

So this guide is next step. I could send my fiancée to <home.domain.xyz> and it’ll take her to homarr, or <jellyseerr.domain.xyz>

The ultimate dream would be to give family members a pi zero and a <home.domain.xyz> and then run a family jellyfin/immich.

Add “Trump”, Kamala" & “Stein” to your filter to block the spam. I added “Trump” to mine to save money on eye bleach.

You’re not wrong.

Someone identifying with Homelander would. That’s the real meme here.

I remember Watchtower helpfully stopping Pihole before pulling the new image when I only had the one instance running… All while I was out at work with the fiancée on her day off. So many teaching moments in so little time.
