knobbysideup , to Technology in Roku has patented a way to show ads over anything you plug into your TV
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

I replaced all of mine with Nvidia shield and Walmart onn streaming pucks. It's a better experience in every way (once projectivy is installed) and costs less too.

knobbysideup , to Selfhosted in Is rsync.net a good service for backups?
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

I use it. No complaints here. They've recently reduced their rates. The alternatives are more involved and more expensive. I put my remote Borg repos on rsync.net

Because I use Borg I don't really need their zfs snapshots but those are pretty cool too.

I have multiple Borg repos, so rather than add a remote for each I just rclone everything at once to rsync.

knobbysideup , (edited ) to Selfhosted in What do I need to separate devices to its own no-internet network and still be able to communicate with within the house and outside? (Diagram provided)
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

For home, use your firewall. Either physical ports on the firewall with dumb switches or vlans with managed layer 2 switches.

There are many ways to do this. Proxmox can do it with ovs if all your devices are virtualized. Pfsense is probably the most straightforward.

The best way to run pfsense is on dedicated hardware. This would work for you https://protectli.com/vault-4-port/

You'll also then need switches or a managed switch with vlans for each network segment.

knobbysideup , to Technology in Google is removing third-party apps and clock faces from all Fitbit watches in the EU
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

I finally replaced my pebble with a Garmin. Pleasantly surprised. I still miss voice response and proper tasker integration, but otherwise it's a solid smart watch.

Activities I only use for hiking. I don't wear a watch cycling or kayaking. Looking forward to trying the snowboarding activity though.

knobbysideup , to Technology in Universities Have a Computer-Science Problem
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

Programming is a trade now. It isn't computer science any more. Make web things is the majority of it. Mostly using CMS.

knobbysideup , (edited ) to Technology in Tim Berners-Lee: Marking the Web’s 35th Birthday: An Open Letter
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

Tim's name is the only one on the original html rfc. He is also a contributor on the httpd rfcs.

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1866

So as far as content creation is concerned, yes he invented it. Html markup made it very easy for non-technical people to easily create their own web pages. That we no longer do that as individuals is the main point he is making. The original intent of the tool has been taken over by marketing and capitalism.

Before his work we communicated and shared via ftp, telnet, usenet, gopher, smtp, and irc.

knobbysideup , to Technology in Roku got hacked
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

Needing a credit card just to use Roku has always been nonsense. I bought a gift card, spent all but $1 of it, and registered with that.

But I've since moved to Nvidia shield on the theater and onn on bedroom, office. Much better experience all around.

knobbysideup , to Technology in Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

As a stand alone service I don't think it is great, but feeding into Plex + Plexamp makes it awesome.

Tidal integrates with Plex local libraries seamlessly. Itslike having your own collections without having to rip or download anything.

My buddy used his pet pig's name. I generally use my first name with last name being the name of the business. Emails for each also unique.

I'll stick with my Transit camper build, thanks.

knobbysideup , to Selfhosted in Self Hosting Fail
@knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works avatar

There are devices like the Netgear lm1200 that can do it inline by themselves.

I have that device, but configured as a second gateway. My firewall manages the failover based on primary packet loss and latency.
