  • Coffee Grinder

    Jump

  • Ive had an oxo burr for about 10 years now, I did replace the burrs but turns out they’re almost identical to the ones a higher end brand uses, so I ordered theirs and fit them in. I wouldn’t say I’m 100% satisfied with the grinder as a whole, the removable bean holder is a little fickle to reattach when there’s bean particles in the grinder. But hey it still works and I use it every day

  • Hey, guys. Is it a good idea to dunk PC parts in isopropyl alcohol?

    Jump

  • Hmmm, you could just… leave them submerged in the oil? Would that protect them from the smoke? I don’t know. I’ll have to look into these “underwater” builds though because that does sound cool.

  • Frigate NVR Critical RCE Vulnerability

    Jump

  • I second this. I have notifications set up via homeassistant, and if I want to view a feed I just VPN in

  • If we’re talking about longest span of time, not necessarily most total hours. Then it would be RuneScape. Started playing back when the wild had no protections. Then after all the changes they made, and once OSRS came out, I went to that instead. Just got my 20-year cape on rs3

  • HAM Radio Operators in Belarus Arrested, Face the Death Penalty

    Jump

  • Great time to. I just got into it and while I never was interested in HAM, meshtastic is fun

  • TIL about OnionShare, an Open Source Hosting, File Sharing, and Chatting Application Available on All Major Platforms

    Jump

  • So like, just banning VPN provider companies? e.g. NordVPN and the like?

    Seems silly to me, yea sure that would probably cut out some people. But if you’re determined enough it’s not hard to go rent a cheap VPS and roll your own VPN using wireguard.

    Idk, just seems messy

  • TIL about OnionShare, an Open Source Hosting, File Sharing, and Chatting Application Available on All Major Platforms

    Jump

  • I don’t know how they would effectively ban VPNs. Especially since they have so many use-cases in the business world. Have two offices you want to connect together? VPN. Want remote work employees to access company assets? VPN.

    Not sure how they’d ban specific usecases of VPNs

  • PDF to EPUB doable?

    Jump

  • I’ve done It before. It’s just highly dependent on the PDF. What software made the pdf? What format was it in prior to being a PDF? Is it a scanned image of text? Or does it have actual text.

    Another option, that might work better, might not, though it would be more work, is use something like Microsoft Word first. Word can open a PDF and “convert” it to Word format. After that, you spend a lot of time fixing all the formatting which will probably be fucked up.

    And then, once you have a nice clean Word doc, convert that to epub.

  • Dog training and handling material

    Jump

  • IMO everyone should read Culture Clash by Jean Donaldson. Really sets the stage for further reading into dog training, but is also great to just demystify a lot of misconceptions people have about dog behavior in general. 100% this one.

  • Looking for a relatively cheap camera system

    Jump

  • I have thought about different ways to do that. Both iOS and android have the ability to run scripts upon certain triggers such as joining a certain Wi-Fi network. (On iOS the Shortcuts app can do this). I’ve thought about using that to post to the already running mqtt broker and using that to update my system. Or I’ve thought about just snooping all the nearby Wi-Fi clients to my server, and if it detects my phone, do something similar.

    Or I suppose you could turn it around, before the system decides it has an intruder, check to see if your phone is in fact at home via some method. Either scanning for it on Wi-Fi or some other way.

  • Looking for a relatively cheap camera system

    Jump

  • You could set it up like that yes, I suppose it would be bad opsec to give away exactly how I set mine up. But HA certainly has the ability to be informed when your phone comes home and change what alerts are sent out based on that

  • Looking for a relatively cheap camera system

    Jump

  • Unfortunately not quite so good. Maybe there exists a model that can do facial recognition. But the model I have loaded on mine just spits out “dog”, or “person”, or “car”. The false-positives I was referring to it not having, is what you’d typically get with a pixel-based motion detection camera. Where if it sees a leaf on a tree move, it alerts you.

    Mine, at least that leaf needs to look convincingly like a person.

    You can read more about the Coral at https://coral.ai/models/

  • Looking for a relatively cheap camera system

    Jump

  • I have a frigate setup. I run it through Docker and I even have the Coral AI processor chip hooked up. Which is pretty neat, runs local pattern recognition for people, annimals, etc. I use generic IP cams on their own network. I think pretty much anything that supports RTSP would work. Then hooked up to HA via MQTT, again all in docker. With the coral, I only get notifications if it actually detects a person. The false positives are extremely rare. And I use Tailscale for access from outside the LAN

  • Tailscale difficulties

    Jump

  • You could be right. I am not a pro so I don’t really want to speak on the best practice approach. Really the only reason I containerize my services is the ease-of-deployment and the ease of potential re-deployment if my server did crash.

    I personally am not too stressed about bad actors, being as this is a hobby server and the payout for a bad actor would be pretty low.

    But your point does make sense to me.

  • Tailscale difficulties

    Jump

  • I also do this. Just run Tailscale on bare metal and then I can access my all my services the same as if I was on my LAN, essentially.

  • Data Backup Solutions

    Jump

  • +1 on duplicity. I run it directly on the host, outside of my docker containers. Grabs the data from the different volumes for my Nextcloud etc, puts it all into an AWS infrequent access bucket. Costs me ~3$USD/month. Pretty simple. Runs on cron

  • Day 408 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

    Jump

  • Sortaaaa, it’s pretty weak from what I remember and mostly served to give you a reason to explore more of the sandbox and use the different features of the game.

  • Backup for important files/pictures?

    Jump

  • I don’t follow the full 3-2-1 rule, but I did want some sort of offsite backup for my Nextcloud so I use Duplicity to back up my user data from Nextcloud, plus all my DockerCompose files that run my server, to an S3 bucket. Costs me like $2/mo. Way cheaper than google drive

  • And I was just about to register :/

    Jump

  • I agree with you, however I always have ublock but fandom is still terrible. The html layout for instance, just bad.

    I’ve been meaning to update wiki.gg with the new gadget info for Derail Valley because I just hate going on Fandom for it
