just cut half that worthless shit out of the OP
>>109095358same thing with most general. Idk why they like pasting garbage. It's not specific to g either
>>109095358>>109095398Good mornings sirs.
jellyfins android skin is soooo bad and custom css wont apply to it. are there any good workarounds?
is there a way to hide my ip address while torrenting without using gluetun? I really don't want to pay for a third-party vpn
whats the downside to setting my external ssd to be plugged into my router and set to share over samba vs getting an actual nas?
would you buy a 50k hours wd red?
>>109095907Of course not.
>>109095974no lol
>>109095974Depends on the price.
>>109095974depends. if there's warranty left, just RMA it and likely you'll get back a drive with fewer hours. possible, but not guaranteed.
>>109095974only 50k?
>>109096037You are like little baby
>>109096587How can solid state ssd drives even compete?
when will nand become affordable again?i just want some 8tb ssd's ( ._.)
>>1090971112030.
>>109095358The op pasta probably should be redone. I might give it a try and have a new op next time I make it. At least all of those links can be put in a pastebin or something.
>>109095930An actual NAS is going to have redundancy. There's nothing wrong with just using a single disk as long as you aren't putting important files on it (or if you also back those up to a third location).If you're just putting media for watching/listening then who cares as long as its performative.
>>109096587>airflow temperature 650000 times hotter than the sun
how feasible is having 16tb hdds in raid 1 with a 1tb ssd for cache? will i regret it the moment an unplanned power outage happens?
>>109098867>If you're just putting media for watching/listening then who cares as long as its performative.I'd fucking hate it if I didn't have backups of my music library.
>>109098906Seems fine. How many drives?
>>109099030i'm pretty anal about music backups.not because i can't re download all of it on soulseekbut because i will forget some of the gems that i don't listen to enough.
>>109089274Why?>>109090381I don't use it for true porn, but I use it for photos and videos collected from the internet and its machine learning is honestly not bad. Not sure what would be better than immich for this purpose. A lot of content is from my smartphone usage after all.
>>109099141I have some music that would be very hard to get back. Some of the indie net labels that I downloaded from the 2010s are now long dead.
>>109087604I'm not sure personally but ask in /ptg/, ggn is full of that kind of stuff
>>109099126raid 1 so two (im not made of gold)
god I love thread. what am I leaning today.
I have a 24TB raid0 scratch pool that I setup Timeshift on and TS filled up the drive in about 2 days and I deleted the TS whatevers that was created and now the accrual files that were sitting in my pool, no longer show up. A scan shows that the pool still has blocks, testdisk can see the partition, but can't see the files. Photorec can recover the files, but it's a jumbled mess. Help! what do I do?
>>109099652Don't lean your HDDs.
>>109099693Restore backups.
None of my Reddit RSS feeds seem to be working. Are they fucking around with shit, or is this a 'me problem'.
>>109099753It's you. Buy a rope.
>>109099652>>109099732Learning*faggot ass auto correct
>>109099735How? I didn't backup the scratch pool and the Timeshift disk format shit, I deleted. Right now I'm doing a photorec and jdupes recovery
>>109099953>I didn't backup the scratch poolGuess it wasn't that important then.
>>109099962lol I knew that was coming. It wasn't really, but, I want to at least try once to recover before totally wiping and rebuilding. Lots of programs and AI correspondence and password databases. Like, I had a Linux version of UFS Explorer FOR FREE and it's gone and where I cannot remember where I got it from
>>10909998624TB seems prerty big for a scratch disk :p. I'm not familiar with timeshift, but I don't remember it formating drives. Also filling up 24TB's in two days is crazy.
Recently upgraded the rack to a real system after moving. Have a JBOD shelf and a dedicated 2 cpu system with prox doing everything that I used to do on a zima 832. (Jellyfin, TrueNAS, etc)I'm trying to think of a good use for the zima now, but being a 1Gb setup it would be the slowest part of my network now. What would be a service that I may want to use on this tiny board vs just spinning another VM? Outside low power draw I can't think of a benefit.
>>109100096Yeah I store my backups of my operating system like the home folder and its contents and other tools for windows whenever I'm feeling retarded and need to go on windows, also a few games etc. I don't watch porn. I have a wife and our sex life is pretty good.
>>109095336Just bought a 720s SFF Thinkcenter but plan to connect it to a DAS enclousure via eSATA. Is this a good plan? Wtf should i host and what other piece of hardware should i get
>>109101143Please tell me that that's not actually dollars.
>>109101396Why does it have a dollar sign?
>>109101415The sign was invented for the spanish dollar, adopted by everyone who did trades in the west indies. The US modelled their coin after it so they adopted the sign and most viceroyalties of the area kept using it after gaining independence due to force of habit >>109101233About 400 dollars for the whole package.
>>109101666still overpricedalso what's the usecase in wetbackville
>>109096587They just don't make 'em like they used to.
>>109101751NAS server + self hosting bunch of services + piracy machine + MC serverId say the most overpriced thing is the DAS but its the most decent 3.5' HDD enclosure with an eSATA port to i guess i am eating the tariffs for a good product.Actually thats why i was asking for info if there were better brands for DAS enclosures.
>>109102104For non-rack mounted DAS you can probably just cut some sheetmetal and then mount drives on it to connect to your PCI-E card. Power wise just grab it off your PSU too. That's the true 3rd world setup.You can't get much easier than eSATA.
>>109102137I mean the thing i showed off its just a less firehazardous option of what you just said.I did plan on 3d printing an extension of the case to place more internal caddies since for some reason this thing has 4 sata data ports but only space for 1 3.5 hdd and 1 2.5 hdd.
>>109101388I bought an overpriced 2x16 GB DDR5 kit because there's some rumblings of the prices getting even worse in the near future.
>>109098867yeah its just for streaming>>109099030my library has a proper backup, its like 500GB of music at this point
So im in a good position where my pc has 64gb of ram, what should i do with it/ host to use up the ram? normally i never go above even needing 8gb
>>109102765>my library has a proper backup, its like 500GB of music at this pointI'm currently at 598.6 GB. 73959 songs.
>>109102780ram drive
>>109099141I keep a directory tree and an expanded filename tree with checksums of everything in my collection up to date which I back up to several locations, rather than backing up the files themselves.It seems sensible for anything that can be easily reobtained in case of data loss.
>>109102780BTRFS dedup. LVM cache.AI offloading if you're into that.
What services do you have on your server?
>>109095974Maybe if it's cheap, but I don't trust people selling used hard drives. Why are they selling it if it's fine?
>>109105453nginx, deluged, php-fpm, smbYep, that's it I think.
>>109102830>598.6 GB. 73959 songsWhyDo you listen to all of them?
>>109105500>WhyWhy not?>Do you listen to all of them?I do listen to everything I add to my library. I averaged about 43 songs per day last year.
>>109105453
in the process of migrating my docker containers from portainer to dockhand. mostly done but i have a few stacks that are not running but need to be copied over. also trying my hand at reverse proxying with npm and trying out lets encrypt stuff. am also into alternative download methods to media. i dont relly like torrenting or usenet.botarr for example is for downloading movies and tv shows from irc.
>>109105662Why both qBittorrent and Transmission?
samba is such trash in 20263 different Windows clients, each take 4 minutes to connect to a smb share i guess i have to debug the issue with wireshark now, what a blatantly homosexual waste of time
>>109108899works on my machine
>>109108899I doubt it's SMB that's doing this. I don't have any Windows machines anymore, but Linux machines connect to it pretty well. Windows connected fine earlier this year too.
does anyone know of a ready-to-use bot that bridges mumble text chat and IRC?
>>109109929I type irc mumble bridge into the duck and found this for you https://github.com/dasJ/mumble-irc-bridge
>>109108899i mean you should know 4 minutes to connect isn't normal.
>>109095358> half of it was already worthless to begin with
>>109095930> you're trusting a consumer router's usb controller and samba implementation to not corrupt your datagood luck with that.
Besides running retroarch+sunshine/moonlightIs there a container for running emulators and have it be played on thinclient?While having the server do all the heavy emulation?Never realized how intense SNES/DS emualtion is.
>>109108392I need to fix my qbittorent. I use it for searching, but the actual torrent function is not working. So I used transmission until I can figure out wtf is going on. I've just been lazy to go and deduce.

>mikrotik ROS changelog: support for hermes-agent
Anyone use Pangolin or Defguard for VPN? How do they compare with Tailscale?
>>109095336What are these randomass IPs (99% abuse reports when I look it up) that clog up my minecraft server console? They have gotten really extreme lately. How the fuck do I rid myself of them?
>>109111291go ask minecraft fags like yourself not us
>>109111300>random IPs are throwing shit at my HOME (game) SERVERoh no how dare I ask about it in the HOME SERVER GENERALare there a bunch of people running bots throwing shit at the default port now? this did not happen until the last few years and it has progressively gotten worse>inb4 I need a better router>inb4 I need to pay some cunt for a list of IPs to block
>>109111291how do you know they are abusive ip addresses? is there a list somewhere? perhaps you could take that list and plug it into your firewall? mhmmmm???
>>109111315go ask the minecraft forum or general instead of us. they may have ran into this themselves. stop being a faggot
>>109110687im surprised you don't have forgejo or miniodoes vaultwarden offer version control?
what the hell happened to this general
>>109111321>>109111335Damn are you assmad you can't even get 5 to people to stick around you long enough to host a server to play with them? Shit nigger sucks for youWHAT THE FUCK could be the use of trying to communicate with random minecraft servers is interestingso then the ISP cuckbox is already not enough and has to be bridged... thought I could get away with it for a bit longer
>>109111394are you really this naive? get a list of addresses and block them or just block Russia and china and that’s 99% of those 99% spammers. they’re looking for exploits in the Minecraft server
>>109095336home server chuds might finally make sense in age of AI
anyone hosting their own irc? if yes, what server software?
>>109111291do you have a minecraft port just exposed raw on the internet? stop doing that
>>109111843i'm interested as well. why are so few people doing this anyway? i guess rizon and scratch are just good enough for most anons?
>>109111291>bad packet>bad packet>bad packetit's just network scannersmaybe there's a fail2ban plugin for minecraft servers idk
>>109112197my guess is testing/exploiting a buffer overflow
>>109112235no
>>109112236ok
my NAS drives have like 60,000 hours on them, still in good health. how long you think these niggas going to hold on? WD Red 10TB.
>>109111843yeah, I use InspIRCd>>109112055because most people use discord now
>>109111340I need to take a look at forgejo>does vaultwarden offer version control?No.
>>109112423I have 3TB's from 2011 still running right now. In fact, out of the 40x HDD's I have, I only lost 2, and that was before I had an UPS. A brown out killed both at the same time. Best you can do is have a spare ready to replace it though.
>>109112423Roll the dice. HDDs don't fail predictably like SSDs.
>>109112723how many hours on them?yeah maybe I'll get a spare. I'm afraid of the rebuild since it's RAID5>>109112833I'll grab a backup drive and pray
>>109113181
>>109113280nice. fingers crossed.
>>109110687Why 2 instances of lanraragi and stash?
>>109114164I have a different type of content I want to keep separate
I've got games on steam, pirated games I run through umu/heretic, emulated games I run from ryujinx/es-de, and retro games on my battlexp linux handheld. Keeping track of what I have and where I can run it from is kind of a hassle.I'm looking for a way to selfhost a game manager. Something I can put in new game torrent requests like radarr but it also tracks what device can run the game and maybe some kind of cloud saving system. I looked into romm but I don't think it does steam games. Does something like that exist but also works for pc games?
>>109114359heroic* not heretic
>>109114359sounds complicated for the sake of making things complicated. just store the roms and saves on a nas
>>109114552Do you feel the same about jellyfin and the arrs?
>>109114712ok so you want a rom downloader for new rom releases? otherwise I don’t see your point for Jellyfin unless you’re wanting to stream the game from a graphics capable server in which case that’s not even remotely similar to Jellyfin
