Docker is your friend. :)

I assume you don't have a TV or a spouse?

I will say, I really want someone* to make a Jellyfin aggregator so you can use multiple servers at once.

100% my experience as well. The external authentication requirement is what made my choose Jellyfin a couple years ago.

I was forcing VPN for a couple years but I've just recently started allowlisting client IPs instead. Not as good but definitely easier.

I love Stirling PDF. I use it probably once a quarter on average. But it's always there, ready to be useful.

I've been making people use VPN, but that's been a huge barrier to entry. I'm in the process of switching to IP allow list in traefik.

How do you handle absolutely critical alerts on your Android phone? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] TheButtonJustSpins@infosec.pub 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

I just get alerts over telegram. They're just regular notifications, but you could probably set specific notification behavior and sounds for the app?

Edit: Though that's not a selfhosted solution. Sometimes it's a decision between reliability and selfhosted. e.g., I went back to Tailscale from Headscale when I lost connectivity through Headscale and couldn't figure out how to get it back.

Thank you for posting this! I've been increasing the memory for my VM over and over and it was using 24GB RAM + 4GB swap. Hopefully this will let me reclaim some.

Bent RAM Clip (infosec.pub)
 

I've somehow managed to bend a RAM clip so it can't clip anymore because it's blocking itself. I haven't been able to bend it back. Any suggestions?

Silly 16 question (infosec.pub)
 

Do anyone else's wrist hairs get caught in the little gap between the frame and the trackpad/spacers?

Keybow OS (infosec.pub)
 

Does anyone know if it's possible to have events from the Keybow keyboard cause effects on the Pi Zero W running the keyboard instead of outputting to another machine? Or do I need to go with a different OS and figure out the handling of the keys myself?

Linux Mint battery tuning for Framework 16 (infosec.pub)
 

Anyone have a list of changes that they've made to increase battery life? I've got about three hours (with 80% limit in BIOS, which I might get rid of), so I'm sure there's a lot that can be changed.

Linux Mint (LMDE 6) drivers for Framework 16? (infosec.pub)

I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD? Trying to use Brave causes freezes and black screen flashes, which I'm pretty sure is a driver thing.

Integrated Login? (infosec.pub)

So, I have a bunch of services behind Authelia, utilizing LDAP hosted on my NAS. I log in once and it carries through my other services that are secured by Authelia, which is great.

However, since my wife rarely visits these services - mostly when I send her links - she has to log in basically every time. I've contemplated putting our laptops on a network login backed by the same LDAP, though I haven't started researching how to do that yet. If I do, though, is there a way to have the laptop login integrate with Authelia or another solution to prevent login prompts?

I know I could do it with Windows and AD, but we're both on Linux, so that complicates things a bit.

Is this a good deal? (www.ebay.com)
 

It seems good based on the price of just the CPU. If it's good, what kind of server case would it need?

Has anyone set up RAID 1 on a Framework laptop? (Might not be possible until Framework 16?) (infosec.pub)

Hello! I am doing some if-I-die planning, and I want to create a machine that is separate from my current homelab that can a) host paperless-ngx and b) be used with keyboard/mouse/monitor if needed. I want it to replace my current paperless-ngx instance that's hosted in my lab.

Ideally, I'd want two SSDs in RAID 1, possibly with a third drive for the OS? I'll be backing up to my NAS and from there to the cloud, but I want to separate this machine from the rest of my infrastructure and still be able to have reliable access to the documents on it.

In theory, I could just sync the files to a USB drive and tell her to grab it if anything should happen to me, but finding the right files while stressed without the metadata stored in paperless wouldn't be the nicest thing to make her do.

tl;dr: What should I buy to build a homelab-in-a-box that can be attached to my homelab normally but also function separately as a PC.

What is the most opinionated linux distro? (infosec.pub)
 

cross-posted from: https://infosec.pub/post/550905

Basically, which linux distro is the best for a non-power user? Someone who wants to be able to get up and running without having to learn how to manage the OS using the cli.

Quick example: When I install a new OS, the first thing I want to do is install Brave. That should be as easy as "click on this thing, type in brave, select Brave, install."
