#HomeLab. The moment of enlightenment.

Every #docker container on the Tailnet member has access to your Tailnet.

For example, Uptime Kuma can send requests to any of your #Tailscale devices. Any service with server-side processing is a potential hole to your #Tailnet when it is public or someone has access there except you.

Be careful. ACL rules is a must in such cases.

Fellow weekend-sysadmin: there is currently a problem with the latest Nextcloud All-in-One master container and docker version 29.

The issue is closed, but the advice given is to either downgrade docker, or use the beta version of the master container, which to me really isn't a solution.

Hi, guys. I broke my Mastodon installation. Next time, I should use a server dedicated solely to Mastodon, lol, because it conflicts with my other apps, lol.

Alright #Yunohost peeps, I need a little help understanding something:

Apparently, it is possible to host two different domains from a single Yunohost server. Now, as far as my tiny brain understands things, each domain should exist on it's own IP address. So how does it work if the Yunohost has a single IP?

People who self-host (anything, not just Mastodon). Are you running services at your house? If so, are you hiding them behind a VPS that tunnels to your home's IP?

My fedi friends and selfhosters!
I want to put an S3 compatible storage on my NAS, and I've previously asked for input. People said to *not* use minio and look at #Garage, #SeaweedFS or #RustFS . Right now I'd tend towards RustFS.
Are there any more options or anything that speaks strongly against or for one of them?

Dank der Hilfe und Geduld von @sam konnte ich meine #FitTrackee Instanz bei #Uberspace auf v1.0.0 bzw. v1.0.3 aktualisieren 🏃🏽‍➡️🚴🏼

Sehr cool: Es lassen sich jetzt Workouts nach Standort filtern und auf einer Karte anzeigen.

Außerdem sind weitere Sportarten, Sprachen und Features hinzugekommen und diverse Bugs beseitigt.

Vielen Dank an @FitTrackee und alle Beteiligten!

Hey all you selfhosters and homelabbers. When you are in need of a new fancy domain, where du you get it und how much d you roughly pay for it monthly. Are there any tld's which are really cheap? I mean there really seem to be people out there collecting that stuff and i think that must be quite expensive when you collect exessively.

#RukiiNet was down for 9 hours 45 minutes today because we installed a new #ElectricCar charger, which cut the power momentarily which apparently killed my UPS. It took me a while to notice.

Just saw notes about #OpenCloud which is apparently a #Nextcloud type thing. Anyone have experience with it? I like Nextcloud, but it's a fucking pain to manage and keep working, especially on shared hosting. I'm steeling myself to abandon my (increasingly broken) shared-hosting NC installation to put it on a home computer, as long as I can convince myself the security of doing that is OK; I've heard that with the all-in-one Docker image it can be.

If OpenCloud is a better user/maintenance experience than Nextcloud, I'd happily give it a shot and maybe switch

Question for those of you who host a LLM by themselfs with Ollama, llama.cpp and use it for example for generating alt texts for images.
What LLM do you recommend? Which one generates a good description for screen reader users with the least amount of computing?

Whats your experience with that? Bonus points for LLM's which perform really good in CPU only situations.

Dear Fedi friends,

If you can set aside 11 minutes today, I highly encourage to watch @vkc's latest video: "I stream nothing, and I am happy."

🔗​: https://tinkerbetter.tube/w/ns3WDZZgAoe1SfrDCAUrni

It is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT and should be shown in media literacy and digital literacy classes everywhere. Actually, everyone should watch it (I'm about to send it to my family and friends).

My favorite part comes up towards the end. Veronica eloquently explains (9 min 27 sec in):

"I feel like we owe it to ourselves and to those who follow us to try and break free of algorithms, which tell us what we should like, who we should believe, and how we should feel about it.

It may sound melodramatic and maybe it is, but I see the increased dependence on algorithmically-driven entertainment as a symptom of that larger problem: uber-convenience that separates us from our critical thinking.

We're learning to abandon reason for small decisions, and wouldn't you know it, now it's easier to ignore reasons for the larger ones.

I'm not here to tell you what to think. I was raised in a "mind-your-own-damn-business" household and that's where my head is at. But I do want to implore all of us to think critically about how streaming media, autoplay, and the algorithm are impacting us."

I'm super proud to be a backer of her Patreon and I cannot thank her enough for this incredible video... which comes at the perfect time, as I was already planning to set up #Jellyfin next week.
