And their stock is still too damn high!

You don’t even have to be old. Death or serious illness/injury can affect us at any age, and it would suck if your family lost access to all the self-hosted photos and videos, for example.

“Make it usable” is a great idea.

Simplify as much as you can.

And remember, if you’re also self-hosting for family, someone will need to take over all that software and digital clutter when you’re gone.

I’ve been trimming as much as I can on my NAS, including only keeping the most important self-hosted software and heavily purging old files and backups.

Yes!! That would be really helpful, too.

According to the dev, Play Services is only needed for casting:

“…you only need play services for Chromecast.” SOURCE, replying to a GrapheneOS user

He even offers an option to install without the play store (via Aurora) and to contact him for the license. SOURCE

The only feature I want (because it really does feel all my other needs perfectly) is the ability to DELETE articles.

Some of the stuff that gets by RSS before it’s moderated out from the source, can be awful. Since I keep an archive of my feeds, this becomes problematic.

Symfonium

What didn’t you like about it?

That’s what I’m using after looking at a bunch of other options based on my requirements, and while I didn’t want to go with a closed source, paid app, it does everything.

Ramaphosa was right to ask “I’d like to know where that is”, when the “evidence” was shown to him live.

Other world leaders should be prepared to challenge Trump right to his face when he fabricates lies like this in those pathetic ambush attempts.

To me, if I had to get a new monitor, it would 100% have to be 120 Hz at 4K OLED with HDR.

My TV and smartphone are both HDR with high refresh rates and it really puts my laptop and desktop monitors to shame.

JuryNow doesn’t store any personal data or persistent user identifiers. The questions and votes are not linked to individuals in a way that would allow tracking behavior over time.

Great to hear!

There is a User Agreement, Liability, Disclaimer etc…

Are these currently in place? I don’t see links to them on the homepage, or during the sign-up screen.

I like the idea, but it needs a privacy policy. If someone answered 100 of those questions, the insight into their behaviour would be incredibly valuable to bad actors.

Guaranteeing anonymity would make this much better.

It’s because it doesn’t get a “close” shave, so it spares the skin! I loved using safety razors, but my skin didn’t. Traditional electric razors were even worse than blades.

But the OneBlade helps a lot. And it’s awesome that you can buy all kinds of attachment blades for shaving every part of your body. Plus, it’s cheap, portable, and now a little better for DIY parts. I just wish it used a user removable 18650 cell or something. I think you basically have to discard the entire unit if it stops holding a charge :(

The OneBlade is awesome! Philips is also a European brand.

Is it easy to set up SSL on a PiHole? I wanted to get Adguard home setup (similar to Pihole) but the complexity of setting up secure connections and I’m like, “yeah, nobody in my family is going to be able to fix this if something happens when I’m not around”. 😂

For context, I have a single Synology NAS, so recovering and testing the entire backup set would not be practical in my case.

I have been able to test single files or entire folders and they work fine, but obviously I’d have no way of testing the entire backup set due to the above consideration. It is my understanding that the verify feature that Synology uses is to ensure that there’s no bit rot and that the file integrity is intact. My hope is that because of how many isolated backups I do keep, the chance of not being able to recover is slim to none.

How does one realistically test their backups, if they are doing the 3-2-1 backup plan?

I validate (or whatever the term used is) my backups, once a month, and trust that it means something 😰

Fiy, the Mozilla Foundation is one of the highest rates charities on Charity Navigator.

They don’t always make the best choices as far as product direction, but as a charity, they are quite respectable.

I thought the invasion would end 80 days ago. Trump said so. 🤭🤡🤡🤡

Immich, I believe, is linked to Futo. And Futo has a license model that’s basically “if you like this app, and want to support the development, consider buying a license.”

Sounds like it might be similar with Immich.

Better than “donate to this project”, since a license seems more like the user is getting something out of it, even if it’s basically a glorified donation 😂

Just for clarity, I followed the links they wanted me to follow.

The sketchy tone and vagueness while they “do stuff” after getting your email seem to have no connection to self-hosting at all.

If my intention was not to self-host, they lost me before I could even trust them enough to provide an email address 😟
