Same

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They have more features though, like extra Ethernet, PCIe brackets and M2 slots on the board

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I suppose you're worried about embedded spyware?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Switching to Linux Mobile would be a welcome change, imagine them heading a FOSS Linux distro to run on phones

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Yeah that's probably true

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Running FOSS and taking control of your network will do a far better trick of privacy vs convenience than most people can imagine

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I wish they opensource their framework

MigratingtoLemmy ,

CDs are fantastic if you have the space for them

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Apologies for not answering earlier. I have since switched over to podman generate kube and podman play kube for managing my podman infrastructure. This plays in well with my plans since I can't be dependent on systemd going forward. Thank you for your help.

With that said, I wanted to ask another question: when I try to run a container with podman run debian, it automatically pulls the debian container without a problem, however how is it that when I type podman pull docker.io/debian/debian it requires auth?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Use headscale, I have no idea how people are OK with tailscale when they keep your keys and essentially have access to your network

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They're IEMs, and earphones are a colloquialism. Nobody is stuck up if they call it an IEM, if someone doesn't know we extrapolate for them. I don't see the problem.

I am an IEM enjoyer (used to own Softears but don't need them anymore), and I use Debian.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Let's talk about your collection

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Let's have you build a train line to Europe eh?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I once thought of purchasing the big boys (for me, in a relative sense) like the Softears RSV, the IER-M9, the Anole VX and perhaps even the U18T.

Then, I reasoned with myself, and thought I'd settle for less. I began aiming for the DUNU SA6 MK2 (I somewhat treble sensitive and the MK2's graph looked even better to me). Maybe the Oracle OG as a reference set.

Now, I've become cheap. I no longer desire for such luxuries, even though it'd be amazing to have them. I now look at the Audiosense DT600 as my preferred target and IEM, and an apple dongle for my laptop and phone.

I do sometimes wonder about the whatifs...the thing is, amidst all of the thinking I did, I didn't actually buy anything. I'm waiting to be blown away by my endless collection of FLAC when I do get the IEMs I want.

Great collection BTW, but like every other guy on Crinacle's livestream: try not to stay trapped in mid-fi hell. CA Andromedas are cool though. Ever thought of the IER-M9/U12t for a relaxing signature?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Tell that to his boss lol

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Don't know about you but I thought forgejo and pixelfed were fairly memorable names. To each their own

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Imagine if systemd was ported as the Windows init manager. (Memes about systemd being inspired by Windows with its bloat).

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I know lol. It was a joke, although I do think that in theory leaner systems like Runit are better. But I cannot dismiss some of the innovation/work done in systemd

MigratingtoLemmy ,

A VPN and the other stuff you mentioned will deal with it

MigratingtoLemmy ,

They do not protect one's privacy if someone is motivated enough, i.e. nation states, or if OP's VPN company sells their information. You can be reasonably assured that Mullvad and IVPN aren't exactly doing that. In terms of obfuscating one's IP, if that's a step towards one's privacy from big tech, then yes good VPNs definitely protect one's privacy

Does the form factor between 3.5" and 2.5" matter in a NAS server? (slrpnk.net)

Been finding some good deals on 2.5 disks lately, but have never bought one before. Have a couple of 3.5 disks on the other hand in my Unraid server. Wondering how much it matters wether I get a 2.5 or not? What form factor do you prefer/usually go for?

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Just buy CMR

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I'm still baffled at how good Ollama is on working on paltry hardware like ARM and small VMs. Give it GPUs and it's amazing.

The next step should be to encrypt information at Transit and rest to as to purchase GPU power from the cloud but maintaining client-side encryption throughout. That'll bring even more power to the masses: imagine giving Ollama a Cloud endpoint to remote GPUs which it can compute on without the consumer purchasing any hardware.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

We should have a call for hackers/pentesters/cybersec enthusiasts to find these little shits and break their infrastructure

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I can't deal with nano hotkeys

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Link to tech blog please

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Streaming to a socket sounds like a decent idea. I don't know how and which program I could stream to; is there a way for handbrake to transparently reencode video and send it to a virtual FUSE mount-point? The problem I have is no local storage to keep video.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

You're right, I don't know why I didn't consider that. This is going to be a mix of security cameras and live streaming video that I'll store on the cloud, and the problem is that I have horrible upload speeds along with no local storage for caching

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

The problem is that I don't have local storage, and neither do I have very good upload bandwidth. Compression could in theory solve the bandwidth problem and cloud storage costs to an extent, but I completely missed the part about video being already compressed. I'll take a look at handbrake though, essentially what I want is a transparent layer that will compress video files (or reencode video files since the former seems pointless) without touching local storage and shove it into my virtual FUSE system to upload directly to the Cloud.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thanks, but the second problem I'm working with (and what I forgot to mention) is that I have no local storage - I would like to write semi-directly to cloud storage. I can probably manage a few GB for caching and that's it.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, but there's another problem: I don't have local storage to write the files to and then upload. I need to write semi-directly to the Cloud.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, yes I realised I'd have to reencode. How would I mount a transparent handbrake compliant FUSE layer?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

The problem is that I don't have the local storage to maintain a watch folder for continually streaming video. I want to write semi-directly to the Cloud, which is why I'm looking for a transparent reencoding layer. Can handbrake do this?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Can handbrake ingest video through an IPC process, reencode and push it to a mount point all without touching local storage?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you, I'll take a look.

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I'm going to be using an SBC for this, which doesn't have the capacity for an extra storage drive. Also, I'm planning to move in a couple of months, and I wouldn't want to deal with storage in the middle of all of this. The cloud isn't as insanely expensive as I initially thought; B2 is $6/TB, and I hope that with reencoded streams at an OK resolution I wouldn't go beyond 1.5TB a month (I'll be deleting stuff with bucket policies, of course).

I'll take a look at tdarr alongside ffmpeg, thanks!

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I was considering the usual BananaPi/OrangePi/Raxda/Pine64 SBCs, are those not enough horsepower? I'd like to stay under $80 for my SBC purchase, and it will be doing double duty with managing some services like DNS and music scrobbling alongside uploading to the cloud

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Thank you for the tip, I'll keep a look out for VAAPI/VDPAU support. Thanks!

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I plan to reencode on the fly before I push the files to the Cloud. This would have to happen in real-time though, since I don't have the space to cache files (and slow upload speeds)

MigratingtoLemmy ,

I use vim btw

Decentralized Systems Will Be Necessary To Stop Google From Putting The Web Into Managed Decline (www.techdirt.com)

Is Google signaling the end of the open web? That’s some of the concern raised by its new embrace of AI. While most of the fears about AI may be overblown, this one could be legit. But it doesn’t mean that we need to accept it....

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Use a different search engine? Use multiple search engines which tweak search parameters? SearXNG and others are the way forward

Is Privacy Worth It? (blog.thenewoil.org)

When I announced I would be closing my communities earlier this year, a curious thing happened: a surprising number of regulars replied with some variation of “I think this is my exit.” While some were specifically talking about Matrix, claiming that mine was the only room they were really active in and therefore they saw no...

MigratingtoLemmy ,

The problem with a threat model is that higher threat models are plainly dismissed by the community. For example, if your threat model is to escape the NSA, it doesn't matter if you're using a burner over TAILS to post this message, you will be dismissed.

The problem is not the tech, it's the community that doesn't want to engage

MigratingtoLemmy ,

Except that forums are exactly the best place to talk about (at least in theory) better OPSEC practices. Crowd-sourced knowledge is fairly good in technical spheres, even if they try to influence it

MigratingtoLemmy ,

How did you "understand" that it would be slow? Did you look at the code?

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

Oh boy

How to randomly pad files before encryption to prevent file fingerprinting?

Hi, I was planning to encrypt my files with GPG for safety before uploading them to the cloud. However, from what I understand GPG doesn't pad files/do much to prevent file fingerprinting. I was looking around for a way to reliably pad files and encrypt metadata for them but couldn't find anything. Haven't found any...

MigratingtoLemmy OP ,

I have thought of it, but it doesn't seem as portable to me as just rclone. I don't like installing Cryptomator either.
