Is there any way to DIY a network speaker like the Amazon Echo/Pop or pricey-as-fuck Sonos?

So far most I've ever seen is by using a Raspberry Pi and a speaker but there's no consensus on how to actually make one because it's surprisingly a niche topic. Seems people would rather consoom, or it's actually difficult to DIY and get satisfactory results.
I only need for the speaker function in order to play music or sound effects through Home Assistant (doorbell/alarm/notification). I don't need it to have microphone or AI or cloud or any of that spyware nonsense.

>>108213184
Because I wanted to eventually run my nas on a separate device from my proxmox server, so I wanted to try out truenas and learn how it works.

Bros I need your help urgently, I can't work on my server for a while but one drive is getting seek errors and smartctl is sceraming at me to back it up, should I unplug the drive to prevent any action or is it fine to just keep it unmounted for a week or two?

I've used Debian forever for my mail server, web server and DNS. I tired OpenBSD and loved its simple and traditional design, and philosophy regarding security (I want to protect the security and privacy of the data of my [few] users).

Problem is it feels *too* outdated at some points; filesystem has no journaling (which makes me worried about data loss), httpd doesn't support HTTP/2 or on-the-fly gzip compression (makes everything load a lot slower), and relayd doesn't support ECDSA certificate keys.

If I'm still going to use nginx anyway should I just move to something like Alpine Linux or FreeBSD? How do they compare security-wise?

Not sure if this is a good place to ask, maybe /sqt/ would be better but they're also more retarded. I'm going to be hosting a git server or two and some (actually legal) torrenting stuff soon. It's for my job and mainly for my research (private repos, only on my own servers) and my lectures/lecture notes/slides/etc. (public).

Which git dev platform should I use? I'm probably going to use gitgud, don't want to use github, unsure about others. Any recs? Also, how do I not fuck up hosting my git mirror? Is there a good opsec checklist? You can savely assume that your answering a retard (me).

Why not just use git+ssh+optionally a vpn? Running a whole webpage for personal stuff seems unnecessary. Paswordless ssh is probably plenty safe but with something like wireguard it's as bulletproof as can be.

How does one make the data in a zfs snapshot "real"? Like if I clone a dataset via sending snapshots from one pool to another, how do I make it so if I were to delete those snapshots on the receiving pool no data from the dataset would be deleted?

Do any of you guys have experience with paperless?
I'm finding that getting multiple users working properly is a huge pain because of how it handles permissions. When I upload a document as a user, the document gets processed by my paperless-ai container, but after finishing, all the generated tags/info show up as "private". I have tried playing with all the permission settings available but as far as I'm aware, all this data will always end up as "private" unless I use that specific user's api key in the paperless-ai container, and it only allows you to use one key.

>>108217419
I use it alone as in no other users in my instance and I also don't use the AI stuff in it. IIRC I had issues with permissions when I first started (among other things) that was solved by making a dedicated user for paperless so maybe look into that?

Also, iknowwhatyoudownload shows a bunch of random torrents I haven't downloaded, occasionally it shows that I download CP, shat myself when I first saw it but apparently it's because some public trackers add in random IP addresses.

Backup REMINDER!
Make sure all your backups are properly working. Ideally you'll want redundant backups. You'll also want several different kinds of backups. Full incremental image backups for your OS's, specific folder backups and so on. Here are the ones I use.

OS BACKUPS:
Urbackup. You self-host this on your server, and connect it to your other servers/desktops. It can make full image, incremental and file backups. You can monitor the progress via the web ui. I use this to backup all my os's.

https://www.urbackup.org/

WINDOWS BACKUPS:
Veeam. This is specifically for Windows. It's a fail safe incase Urbackup doesn't work.

https://www.veeam.com/products/physical/windows-backup-recovery.html

LINUX BACKUPS:
Elkarbackup. Self-hosted web-ui backup software. I use this to do full image backups of my Debian mini pc. Fail safe incase UrBackup doesn't work.

https://www.elkarbackup.org/

PATH BACKUPS:
Backrest. It's a self-hosted web UI for restic, a popular backup utility with snapshot functionality. Rock solid and has been working without issue for me for about a year now.

https://github.com/garethgeorge/backrest

In addition to those, I have cron jobs bash scripts that makes backups of all the data from my docker images. I use TrueNAS for my main server, which already has built-in periodic snapshots. TrueNAS configs are backed up to Google Drive. My OPNSense router config is also backed up to Google Drive.

Remember, backups are your LIFE LINE. SET THEM UP.

speak for yourself, i just put my files on my homeserver so i can access them from any device without carrying extra storage around. probably almost every homeserver is used this way. chances of both main+backup copies being lost is remote, and the data is not so important that you need to worry about more.

maybe you are exceptional and need 30 backup copies but most people dont

As rood as this is you're probably right. If he actually has been keeping backups as a means of "source control" for an entire decade, then working out exactly what was done between each backup would probably be so much work that at that point, it might not be realizing what the right or wrong way is, but you just cant be bothered to properly migrate a backup method thats been fucked for so long

AI sloppa is making it hard for me to buy a NAS. I recently set up my home server and already have 600 movies on jellyfin, but they're all 720p while I wait for HDDs to go back down in 20 years, it will be easy to replace them with higher quality versions since I'm using the *arr programs.

Rice, egg and onions sauce is my comfort food. I like simple sandwiches which is canned tuna, mayo, salt, pepper, paprika and chopped pickles. Smoked cheese too if it's on sale. Orange juice since I also don't drink soft drinks except Christmas and New Years.
Chicken is my go to meat. I love pork but don't have it often, same with beef. I don't like fish that much other than salmon, but that's expensive as fuck so I also don't buy that often.

>Remember:
>RAID protects you from DOWNTIME

Unironically can someone explain this for me? If you have 4x 1TB disks in RAID10 (or whatever it is that does this) where you get 3TB of storage and the ability to lose 1 disk without losing any data, and in the event of a disk failure you can re-build the array with a replacement disk, how is that not protecting you from data loss? I know having full duplication is a lot more robust like if your house burns down but still.

>>108240058
Say you delete a file. Your raid array happily replicates the change and now you no longer have that file.
Now you decide that you actually needed that, but it's gone. It was already overwritten, so no recovery either. No malfunction occurred, the array was ordered to delete and it deleted. This can happen without your consent too, such as when a vibe coded piece of shit electron app decides to delete the wrong thing.
Now your backups save you.

ffs how can a company like Backblaze whose business is in the cloud storage industry be so incompetent at analyzing hard drives?

# of drives replaced by capacity? [1] OK... but how many drives of each capacity were there? Was was the lifespan and read/writes on each drive?

The tables in their blogs are literal screenshots of some of Excel tables [2] that doesn't allow you to sort by metrics. I haven't seen a data dump for all their data, but it's pretty bad.

I'd be embarrassed if I was a company and these "statistics" were on my website

Others I checked are idrive (not iCloud) and Sync and they both seem inferior to me.

I don't use it, but it looked like it was going to cost about $3.60/TB/month. I didn't look into how much retrieval was going to be, but it was a lot more. Maybe $100/TB.
My plan for when I do set up an offsite backup is to ask my sister if I can put a server at her house.

does a sonarr like application exist for anime, manga, novels etc or will i have to vibecode it?

>>108240132
Ah, I see. RAID provides protection against a specific mode of failure, while a backup does that and also provides a failsafe for accidents, mistakes, or even deliberate malice.

I'm planning on someday making a photo/video/document/general storage server for our house, this is useful to think about. I could see myself thinking "I just need protection against drive failure, I'll be careful, I won't accidentally format the array" but I've also literally stepped on a laptop before by accident (two actually) and once accidentally stuck my hand into a 4 inch high power CPU fan running at max speed cause it wasn't getting PWM control. So maybe a backup isn't a bad idea, even if it comes with the pain of cutting my available storage in half...

I like how sonarr automatically creates a hardlink and stores the nicely named copy in the folder of my choosing, which is the same I have set up in Jellyfin. I guess I could just make a bash script or something but I also like the categorization and how I can automatically set them up to download better movie/tv versions when they find them and replace them.

Cartridge-based systems will probably only take like 30-40GB if I had to guess
It's disc-based stuff that really takes a lot of space
Also, it's not necessarily the commercial roms that are in danger here, No-Intro and Redump stuff is hosted all over the place. Myrient does have some rare stuff though, like Nintendo gigaleak stuff that most sites don't host

>>108248763

i'm in the process of using a pro micro, fanhub, temp.sensor and ir transmitter, to control the rpm + airco. seems easier than your story.

is there any nice course or labs or anything like that for proxmox? don't have free hardware for that rn, it ran like shit on my laptop, on vmware it makes routing and firewall unnecessarily complicated, don't want to nuke my working mini pc server yet

I want to put my web-facing servers on a separate network segment from the rest of my internal network by breaking out the network with a switch/separate router from the modem/demarc side.

Is an effective way to do this securely to spawn a second v-switch that's connected to the external physical port, create a separate network interface for that switch on each VM as the persistent connection, then only attach them to the v-switch I use for internal traffic if I'm going to do maintenance on the servers?

The server had a sudden power loss under load at first and then wouldn't boot properly anymore. It would POST but when it init'd the GPU (GTX 1080) it would SPL again and again. Swapped in an RX 580 and it booted once but then it slowly lost power, all LEDs started flickering and SPL again.
All components but PSU are known good and were meticulously tested yesterday with the PSU causing SPL when used in another system. The System was tested in multiple rooms with different fuses, so it's not an electrical problem of the building (Germany).
System is this: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/dWsFTm with two differences because PPP doesn't have the components:
>The PSU is 750W
>The M.2 are 2x 512GB Samsung PM991a
The systems pulls over 500W at full Load, I think the caps in the PSU have just gotten too old.
>Does it fry other components when it dies or only itself?
Doesn't really fry itself, it just "collapses", all LEDs flicker and dim before it happens.

>>108252437
Yeah its getting really ugly.

I really wanted to have a home server, just run jellyfin and similar. Installed openmediavault on a laptop with attached external HDD and it was terrible. More hassle than it was worth. Kernel panics, freezes, not a day without needing to reboot it. Now it got a fucked up partition and boots to grub rescue. it's not worth it, being a part-time sysadmin. I've already got a job, not gonna work at home troubleshooting IT shit too

>>108252462
Hardware issue, external HDD and probably fucked old laptop. Likely software selection issue, OMV was likely overengineered solution for use case. Also skill issue.

are these prices the new normal? Is it cope to think it'll ever go down even if or when the bubble pops? what can we do besides get fucked in the ass?

>>108252462
My experience with omv has been solid, but I'm quite picky with hardware. Chances are it's something silly like a fucked usb cable

Currently shopping for a new PSU but cannot decide between these two:
>Corsair RM1200e
>Corsair HX1000i
The HX is 20€ more expensive and has 200W less power, but it has 3 extra years of warranty and more connectors (8 vs 7 SATA connectors) and a digital interface for monitoring.

Wat do?

>>108253241
Yeah, I boughted (sic) because JohnnyGuru said it was a sublime PSU even better than the HX750i that I was comparing it to (which I then bought later on).
To the PSUs credit, it lasted 11 years.

how would hsg build a server that automatically builds and compiles AUR packages to serve them as repository for the local network?

>>108253522

imagine not having four cibie lights

>>108253956
why would you do that.
why are you using the AUR
how are you going to manage dependencies
why do you want a botnet loaded with compromised code on your network?
you people treat your computers like a 16 year old treats his cock when sluts are around.

>>108254044
>why would you do that.
because I need some packages from the AUR and these need to be installed on multiple devices
>why are you using the AUR
because it's easier to manage
>how are you going to manage dependencies
by building them along and also posting to the custom repo
>why do you want a botnet loaded with compromised code on your network?
because i'm not a schizo like u

How hard do I push this? The description simply said "computer works" - no mention of a faulty drive. I'd like to keep the computer rather than pay for return shipping, do I ask for a partial refund or new drive? If I open a problem I'm sure Ebay would say to return the entire thing.

>>108254109
you're retarded for buying a used drive so you deserve this, just keep it and use the drive for dumping data, then get a nice and new bigger drive

>>108254109
you bought an old pc on ebay, did you expect to get new drive ?
If the seller mentioned how old the pc is and the power on hours don't match you could try to argue, but expecting him to get you a new drive is too much.

>>108254109
if i was the seller i wouldn't have even responded to you, and then signed you up for BBC porn site spam.

>>108253956
How I would do it is I would use my gitea server's package registry functionality to serve as the arch package registry ( https://docs.gitea.com/usage/packages/arch ), and then set up gitea actions runners to build and push packages for a list of packages that I want to maintain.

I do not know or claim that this is the single best way to do it, but it is the way I would do it.

I would call his bluff. A drive that is self reporting signs of imminent failure/extreme wear isn't in normal working condition. I've seen lots of drives with much more time on them with no reallocated sectors, more than I have that do in fact. The fact that there are a lot of reallocated sectors isn't an issue because of the number of reallocated sectors, its an issue because some deeper problem is causing sectors to go bad and thus need to be retired and reallocated. It's probably not going to keep working for years. Anybody who knows what's "normal" would know this, ergo at best they withheld information about the items condition and at worst blatantly misrepresented it's condition. Try explaining as much to them and ask for a partial refund, perhaps enough to cover the cost or half the cost of the drive or something. They probably don't want the thing returned or a bad review or deal with ebay getting involved if you escalate the issue, so call their bluff and see what they do. If they don't back down, decide if you want to return it or buy a new drive, or just risk using the existing one and monitor it closely for a while to see if it gets worse, and check to see if it might need better airflow or something.

anyone know how these orico HDD docks cloning works? Seems dead simple to use but idk if it's efficient or not.

is it better to use a dedicated raid 1 set via Ubuntu os?

>>108254881
No? you motherfucker. Go ahead. Ask me about the velocity of a sparrow. I fucking dare you.

in all seriousness, unless you're ragebaiting (in which case well done, I was pissed for a few seconds) this is a sign that we need to start being more careful about assuming we can reliably detect AI shit.

>>108255030
so apparently these HDD docks definition of clone is a FULL copy of sectors to the other drive. It's not incremental

I'll want to use mdam

"What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

>>108255287
African or European?

There was a book I once read called "The Getaway Special" where a guy basically works out how to teleport shit anywhere in the universe (provided there's not too many atoms already occupying that space, as it takes exponentially more power to push more and more out of the way) and now you can use any airtight container as a space ship, from submarines to (new, never used) septic tanks or big water tanks. Just pop an oxygen bottle in and the computer and power source and the device you can build at home using his detailed instructions he publicly released and you're good to go. Eventually they encounter a species of inter-stellar capable (via generation ship) hive-mind butterflies and there's a moment when they want to be extra sure that the french submarine they're talking to is really a french submarine and not the butterflies pretending to be them. To prove their humanity, he asks the crew of the submarine something the butterflies couldn't possibly know, but any human would: "What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?" (They gave the butterflies an unredacted dictionary, but not an encyclopedia)
