Performance mostly, encoding is better, reducing load on my NAS and using it specifically for storage. Immich performs better as well, it’s pretty resource hungry I found. I also am planning to set up Frigate for home security and that’s the main reason I wanted something with a bit more power.

I just recently discovered proxmox and am slowly moving my docker containers off my NAS. Picked up a used Intel NUC, i5-8259, 32gb ram, 512gb HDD. It’s been great so far, very happy with its ability paired with proxmox.

I downloaded and tested as well and noticed right away there is no sleep timer which I use every night. I actually quite like the audiobook shelf app. It’s served my wife and I quite well this past year.

Should’ve went for the full 2 decillion

Same just gotta do this last dog food order…

I think it’s mostly to do with their advertising tactics and misleading people in what their service is actually doing.

They also had a data breach and did not handle it well.

Maybe there’s other stuff I don’t remember… I’ve never used them, I’ve been on Mullvad for some years now but considering proton next.

I’ve got a pineapple habanero cider in its last week before I bottle it right now.

Used apple juice as the base for primary, infused habanero into pineapple juice and added into secondary fermentation. It’s pretty spicy, I’m going to back sweeten with pineapple concentrate I think and then pasteurize.

The lights we have definitely require the app and an account to get them to do anything other than solid white.

Thanks I will look into those products as well as Home Assistant. I’ve yet to pull the trigger on installing HA, I don’t have a lot of devices that have made me want to use it yet. We only have a couple Google speakers and Chromecasts.

Apparently it’s to detect nearby devices so that you don’t have to pair the traditional way.

The other thing that bothers me about these lights is they have a built in microphone that listens for music playing and can adjust the lights to match the music. I haven’t looked myself but some users on Reddit have posted about the amount of network activity with Govee cloud and Google Analytics being very high.

If I can isolate them from accessing the internet and connect through Home Assistant locally then I may keep them… These are sort of a trial run for future permanent Christmas/Occasion lights on the outside of the house.

Typically they still have performance issues though? I haven’t played on consoles since Xbox 360, other than the odd Nintendo game. I spent thousands of dollars on 360 and PS3 games and hardware and have none of it now. But my entire PC library is still playable.

I use an android device and my NAS is a Synology ds923. Jellyfin wasn’t nearly as smooth an experience for me as Plex was. I’m willing to switch to FOSS but it doesn’t seem as good yet…

Do you have an offsite backup? Or do you only backup specifics? Like 10-20% of that?

Do you typically believe everything you read in meme form?

I’ve been to Paris 3 times, I’m from BC in Canada. April, May and October I went. Had an amazing time every time, people, food, places. It’s one of my favorite cities.

Thanks for doing this!

I’ve had this turned off for quite some time (maybe 2 years) and haven’t had it turn itself back on. Using Firefox.

Keep one in your car as well. I’ve carried one over 15 years under my seat and had to use it last summer when a motorcycle attempted to overtake and hit a turning car. It wasn’t fun but I’m glad I had it.

I do use docker, I set up a docker account as well with selected permissions.

I do have a separate backup in a separate building that syncs the most important stuff.
