How do people feel about Garuda? I put it on a laptop to try it out. I’m still undecided.

I’m running checkmk for monitoring but that won’t help you with detection of unwanted logins. For security I’m running crowded.

Everyone’s saying fstab but if Navidrome is in a docker container, just mount it as a volume on your container. I found this guide that seems to document it fairly well.

phoenixnap.com/kb/nfs-docker-volumes

This is how I’m handling NFS mounts in my docker stacks.

This sounds like a stability horror show. Has that really worked out well for you?

Didn’t even occur to me to ask what your upload bw was. That makes sense.

Np. I wasn’t trying to imply anything. I asked a different question, it just had overlap so I thought you might find it useful.

I’ve been using Wiki.js since I asked this question a few months ago. I’ve been pretty happy with it. Stores data in text files using markdown and can synchronize a number of backends. I’ve got mine syncing to a private github repo.

Reads to me like the container it’s running as a user that doesn’t have permission to the volume path.

@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I’m not sure if there’s a correct way. What I’ve done in the past is use “ps” to find out what user the processes are running as.

I’ve been happy with github.com/everywall/ladder

I hope someday we'll find a way to pirated a car (lemmy.world)

In the end, the KIA car company made its cars into subscription models, I really hate this because in the end the car we buy with our own money doesn’t feel like it belongs to us. Should we finally buy an old school car ? so as not to be affected by this subscription models or is there a way to crack the software installed in...

@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I own a Kia. I don’t enjoy the subscription anymore than the next guy but I’m calling bullshit.

The only features behind a pay wall are the ones the app provides. The ones that require an always on internet connection and server infrastructure to maintain.

None of the in-car features are limited. The remote start on my key fob, seat heaters, onboard nav, all work fine without a subscription.

This isn’t like the crap bmw was pulling with the seat heaters.

Those prices on the screenshot are annual, not monthly.

I’ll agree that the services are overpriced, and I know I’m in the wrong place for this sentiment, but I don’t think it’s unreasonable to have a reoccurring fee for something that costs actual money and man-hours to maintain. And I’d rather that fee be a bolt on vs baked into the price of the car (or whatever) so I can choose whether I want to pay it.

All that being said, I don’t pay for the kia online svcs because I think they’re overpriced.

I can confirm from personal experience that the key fob remote start works fine without a sub on 21, 23, and 24 Kias.

Planning on setting up Proxmox and moving most services there. Some questions

I am currently running most of my stuff from an unraid box using spare parts I have. It seems like I am hitting my limit on it and just want to turn it into a NAS. Micro PCs/USFF are what I am planning on moving stuff to (probably a cluster of 2 for now but might expand later.). Just a few quick questions:...

I have looked high and low for how to delete a cluster and have never stumbled on this page, thanks! Almost everything I found said I had to destroy proxmox and reinstall it.

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

And you don’t have quorum issues any time a system is down. (I regret making mine a cluster.)

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I need to re-ip both of my proxmox hosts and ran into a wall due to quorum. This could get me over that hump.

That being said, it was a failed experiment to put them in a cluster. I don’t use any of the cluster functionality and would love to destroy the cluster config w/o having to rebuild the proxmox hosts.

Self-hosted or personal email solutions?

I have a unique name, think John Doe, and I’m hoping to create a unique and “professional” looking email account like johndoe@gmail.com or john@doe.com. Since my name is common, all reasonable permutations are taken. I was considering purchasing a domain with something unique, then making personal family email accounts for...

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

Certainly. But, what I’m trying to say is it’s not just email. My users are using my domain as their Google account. All Google services, oAuth, etc…, not just email. To do it right I need to get them to migrate their google services to a gmail.com account.

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

My mistake was using Google but when it was just the ability to have a personal domain as your google account. But they kept expanding and morphing that into what is now Google Workspace. Migrating people off of that requires them to abandon their Google accounts and start over. If it was just email it would be a much simpler prospect to change backends.

@avguser

I’ll second not self hosting email unless you’re in it for the experience.

I’d also strongly caution against hosting email for friends and family unless you want to own that relationship for the rest of your life.

If you do it anyway, you’re going to end up locked into whatever solution you decide for a long time, because now you have users who rely on that solution.

If you still go forward, don’t use Google (or msft). Use a dedicated email service. Having your personal domain tied to those services just further complicates the lock in.

(I did this over a decade ago, with Google, when it was just free vanity domain hosting. I’ve been trying for years to get my users migrated to Gmail accounts.)

If I had it all to do over again. I’d probably setup accounts as vanity forwards to a “real” account for people who wanted them. That’s easy to maintain, move around, and you’re not dealing with migrating peoples oauth to everything when you want to move or stop paying for it.

I set this up a couple years ago but I seem to remember AWS walking me through the initial setup.

First you’ll need to configure your domain(s) in SES. It requires you to set some DNS records to verify ownership. You’ll also need to configure your SPF record(s) to allow email to be sent through SES. They provide you with all of this information.

Next, you’ll need to configure SES credentials or it won’t accept mail from your servers. From a security standpoint, if you have multiple SMTP servers I would give each a unique set of credentials but you can get away with one for simplicity.

Finally you’ll need to configure your MTA to relay through SES. If you use postfix here’s a quick guide: medium.com/…/sending-emails-with-postfix-and-amaz…

I’ve got postfix configured on each of my VPS servers, plus and internal relay, to relay all mail through SES. To the best of my knowledge it’s worked fine. I haven’t had issues with mail getting dropped or flagged as SPAM.

There is a cost, but with my email volumes (which are admittedly low) it costs me 2-3 cents a month.

I’ve been successfully using SES for a couple years now without issue.

I get told by web forms regularly that my email is not a valid address and even people that got my email written on a piece of paper have replaced the .email with .gmail.com cause “that couldn’t be right”…

That’s the thing that holds me back from a non-standard TLD, as much as I’d love to get a vanity domain.

I’ve got a .org I’ve had for over 20 years now. My primary email address has been on that domain for almost as long. While I don’t have problems with web-based forms, telling people my email address is a chore at best since it’s not gmail, outlook, yahoo, etc…

SeeJayEmm,
@SeeJayEmm@lemmy.procrastinati.org avatar

I keep seeing people say this but I’ve yet to encounter it even once. I fully believe it happens with non-com/net/org TLDs but I’ve been using my .org as my daily driver for 2 decades and have never had it rejected or denied.
