Vanilla nginx is still too far over my head, but Nginx Proxy Manager makes easy work of it.
A lot of people like Caddy but I’ve never tried it. The config files are much simpler and it auto-renews certificates (but so does Nginx Proxy Manager).
Lots of allergens are popping where I live. Grass and ragweed are ramping up to max output.
That’s pretty neat. I was expecting something basic like “pay it off every month and there’s no interest”, but this was much more interesting.
It’s a method that web pages use to make sure you didn’t make a typo in the number.
Is it maybe because of physical distance? How far is your VPS from the Backblaze region? Check the bucket “S3 Region”. I’m stuck on west, for example, even though I live on the other side of the country. There’s a way to switch, but I haven’t had the need to bother with it.
That environment isn’t suitable for a domestic animal.
I wish there was an easy compromise. I subscribe to an Owl community on Lemmy, so it’s safe to say I was already aware of the mouse poison problem when I decided on what to do. I’ve just been trying to reduce my guilt by telling myself the house mice are staying in the house when they croak.
It has also been on my list to stuff some copper wool into some spots where the mice might be getting in. If it’s not too hot today I’ll get on the ladder.
I believe (without much evidence) that the Barred owls visit our yard for frogs, toads, and voles. We live next to wetlands and have loads of toads.
We live in the woods, so we have mice, owls, and all sorts of other wildlife. I don’t want to hurt wildlife, but I’m definitely not going to tolerate families of mice in the attic. I also don’t have the time or energy to climb into the attic every day to check traps – so mouse bait it is.
My hope is that the mice are dying in or near the house, and not out in the open where an owl might nab them. I’ve found some indoors, and have smelled others. That’s good evidence to me that the house mice are staying in the house to die. I’ll look into MouseX like @just_ducky_in_NH@lemmy.world mentioned, though.
Self hosting a calendar isn’t too difficult. I use NextCloud personally, but as the saying goes “it’s overkill for your specific requirements”. Nothing wrong with overkill, though.
Another option might be LubeLogger. It’s designed to track car maintenance, but you can set up time based reminders. For example you can create a “vehicle” called Dishwasher and set a once a month reminder. The problem is notifications… LubeLogger only does email if you set it up. I hacked together Ntfy notifications but that was one of the more difficult things I’ve ever figured out. It’s possible, though.
I love MikroTik, but I don’t think it meets OP’s needs. RouterOS isn’t beginner friendly.
Why so little sleep?
Private trackers are appealing to a lot of people because of the quality. Quality uploads, quality seeders. People who buy access haven’t shown that they possess knowledge regarding how to participate in a private tracker.
They are more likely to hit-and-run, have a bad ratio, or break other rules. They don’t have a track record to show that they probably don’t work for a record company/studio, etc. They are a burden to the volunteer staff for these reasons.
If you’re a good seeder as you’ve claimed, then working your way up shouldn’t be difficult. It just takes time and some dedication.
Ah, right under my nose. Thanks! This inspires me to take another look when I have some time.
I agree to an extent, but names are hard. I was able to sort of guess what fwupd does without having to read more into it. If it was named “Firmware Updater” I would immediately start asking questions. “Which company made this to update their firmware? Is it safe? Is it a virus?”. The name “fwupd” indicates to me that it’s more of a universal tool (I could be wrong, as I haven’t looked into it) made by the open source community.
I think a solid solution would be for mainstream distrobutions (Linux Mint, Ubuntu, etc.) to maybe have a default wrapper for stuff like this. They could call it whatever they like (“Hardware Updater” or whatever), but it’ll use fwupd for the heavy lifting. Win win.
Meh, I have a crap ton of smart home stuff and zero of it relies on the cloud. I think I only have one switch that even has the ability to “phone home” and I’ve blocked its access to the internet. It’s like anything else, you just have to be smart about what you buy, and the good stuff has a higher learning curve.
Man, I used to LOVE defragmenting drives. I felt like I was actually doing something productive, and I just got to sit back and watch the magic happen.
Now I know better.
Yeah, both are fine. I switched away from KeePass because I was using Dropbox to take care of device sync, and it just didn’t feel right. Switching to Bitwarden was awesome for me because I self host it (Vaultwarden). It’s only accessible inside my home network, so mobile devices use a cached copy. If I need to add a new entry while away from home I can connect via VPN.
You can eference the outer edges for a satisfying before/after.
I disagree that it can’t be LG anymore since it’s still a basic TV so long as you don’t connect it to the internet. Use the TV as a TV and use an Nvidia Shield, Chromecast, etc to do your internet stuff.
