I’ve been happy with the librecomputer boards but my uses are pretty limited.

This was a fun read and specifically made me wonder what I’d need to roll my own steam link device.

I use a Synology NAS + Plex + Chromecast, works great.

exu, in Comparing compression in AV1, x264, and x265

I’ve also gone down that rabbit hole and found Vivictpp pretty good. It allows you to play two videos so you can swipe between them like imgsli you mentioned.

There’s a whole range measurements trying to approximate quality differences between a video source and encode. PSNR, SSIM, VMAF, MS-SSIM
All of them with some strong areas and tricks you can use to cheat them.

Ilgaz, in Do any of you have that one service that just breaks constantly? I'd love to love Nextcloud, but it sure makes that difficult at times

What we need is something that is a) Private (not saying nc isn’t) b) Independent of any judicial government c) P2P and ultra redundant d) Run by a true non-profit (not like openAI) e) Massively distributed, process wise and storage wise f) OS independent, written in pure C or Rust.

I run a k3s Kubernetes cluster on a single KVM host(multiple VMs). Honestly I do not care a single f*ck about that machine nor k3s itself. I update once a year, do not have any documentation written nor IaC somewhere. I always forget how I configured the networking stuff for example. But that machine runs my critical services flawlessly without a single crash in like 3 years. So no I cannot relate.

github.com/MHSanaei/3x-ui plus foxyproxy or Proxy SwitchyOmega if you’re using chromiums

thisisawayoflife, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

I wonder what performance impact there would be if you were to move pgsql onto bare metal with enough ram dedicated to caching all of the db data (think: i5 or i7 nuc). That’s going to be my next step with my homelab; I want to migrate everything to a single db host with a lot of RAM and M2 storage and avoid the db process replication I have going on. I have no performance complaints with NC currently, I’m running PHP cache and redis as well as image preview and imaginary.

I don’t, because I switch it with something better if something like that happens.

stoicmaverick,

This is the most unhelpful, unnecessary thing I have heard anybody say all day, and my mother is still visiting…

I just scream-laughed at this! xD

This is Seafile for me. Definitely not the “set it and forget it” Google Drive alternative I was hoping for. Thank goodness I have Syncthing backing up important files, but sharing with friends and family is a nuisance.

Wait so it’s not just that my vps only has 1gb of ram?

You guys with more ram still get crashes?

possiblylinux127, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

Does Postgres really help that much? It runs fine for me with MariaDB

tofubl,

Very anecdotally, I saw a little speed improvement but not all that much. DB size increased a bit. I’ll be sticking with it for the time being because why not.

caleb, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements

Thanks. I didn’t realize syslog would help. Just configured it to send to my grafana/loki server. Not sure if it’s really helping, but seems like maybe it’s a bit faster. I’ve long since done everything listed here and more, but in the last couple months my nextcloud has seemed a bit sluggish for some reason.

JeromeVancouver, in AppleTV complete replacement opinions

We have a Roku and host a Plex server. I have never had an apple tv but I don’t think I am missing anything

randomcruft,
@randomcruft@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Thanks for the reply. Seems Roku / Plex are a fairly common combination.

aStonedSanta, (edited )

Yup. The generic answer. I’d rec a nvidia shield pro. I have two and fucking love them.

Edit: also prefer jellyfin

chaospatterns, in Help with NGINX? so close...

I don’t fully understand what you’re saying, but let’s break this down.

Since you say you get an NGINX page, what does your NGINX config look like? What exactly does the NGINX “login page” say? Is it an error or is it a directory listing or something else?

helenslunch,
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

what does your NGINX config look like?

Can you elaborate? I don’t know how to explain beyond what’s in the OP:

I created a proxy host in NGINX to forward requests from [subdomain] to [LAN Server] on [LAN] port 8097 (Jellyfin container).

What exactly does the NGINX “login page” say?

It says NGINX and has texts fields for email and password

SecurityPro, in Nextcloud Performance Improvements
@SecurityPro@lemmy.ml avatar

I had been running Nextcloud on an old laptop using Ubuntu, but that machine died. I have a Windows PC originally built for gaming that I am considering using for Nextcloud. Anyone have any experience with NC and Windows? Thought on the DB switch on Windows?

tofubl,

I don’t think you’ll do yourself any favours setting it up on Windows directly. How about docker+wsl2?

SecurityPro, (edited )
@SecurityPro@lemmy.ml avatar

I have docker on the machine now and thought I’d try that type of install first. Sorry, I’m not familiar with the abbreviation “wsl2”

blasterx, (edited )

it stands for Windows Subsystem for Linux. Here is a link on how to install it.

ikidd,
@ikidd@lemmy.world avatar

100% agree with tofubi, Docker on Windows is a form of self-abuse, like cutting yourself. It’s a train wreck for anything other than a little bit of testing for development work. You will come away with a bad taste in your mouth about Docker, I avoided containers for years because I started with them on Windows docker.

I’ve run a lot of different scenarios with docker, what I’ve come down to as the cleanest and easiest to maintain is Debian 12 with the Docker convenience script. It’s fast, hassle free, and doesn’t have a bunch of layers of weirdness like using Ubuntu Server with a docker snap that makes troubleshooting a nightmare.

for anything other than a little bit of testing for development work.

It’s really awesome for development work, though. Visual Studio has built-in Docker support, so I can run my app and its unit tests on both Windows and Linux (via Docker) at the same time on the same system during development.

tofubl,

This sounds interesting.

I use docker in vscode for latex. It saves me the trouble of having to install texlive on my system. I have a task defined that mounts my sources in and runs the compilation in the container.

Would love to hear about your work flow.
