What is "huge storage"? What is your budget?

They're not. There are far better options like speed tables and speed cushions.

thejevans , 3 months ago to Selfhosted in Owners of a domain, which domain registrar did you choose and why?

In the process of moving all my stuff to porkbun as well. It's the best.

thejevans , 3 months ago to Technology in Any service cheaper than Backblaze?

Tarsnap charges you for the compressed, deduplicated storage used, so if you're mostly backing up documents and working files, the amount of storage used is way lower than the raw uncompressed storage. This includes deduplication at a block level.

If you use Backblaze B2 with Restic, you can get the same functionality at a much lower price, but requires more setup.

Depending on the type of data, Tarsnap may be what you want https://www.tarsnap.com/

Relying on individual consumer choices to change the direction of a multinational company to a direction that is clearly less profitable is laughably naive.

This is really cool. I'm still struggling to find a good replacement for my use case. I almost exclusively watch youtube on my Nvidia Shield on SmartTube with sponsorblock.

I do use Jellyfin already and I see there is a Jellyfin plugin. Do you know if Jellyfin gets sponsorblock information as chapters? That would probably be an okay solution, even if it doesn't automatically skip them.

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Lemmings, what's your self hosted server power usage?

My current setup uses ~180W, which is a lot, but WAY better than my previous one, which was ~600W. Power is cheap where I live, so I'm not too worried about it.

180W homelab:

• N6005 fanless mini PC running pfsense
• mikrotik CRS310-8G+2S+IN switch
• TP-Link AP225 access point
• Server running proxmox w/ AMD 5900X, RTX 3080, 128GB ECC RAM, LSI-9208i w/2x10TB drives, and dual SFP+ NIC

600W homelab:

• Aruba 24-port PoE gigabit switch w/ 4xSFP+ ports
• Dell R720xd fully kitted out w/ 12x 6TB drives, 2x 512GB SSD, 2x 32GB SD cards, 100-something GB RAM, 2x whatever the best CPU was for that unit
• Dell R710 w/ 6x 6TB drives, 1x 256GB SSD, 100-something GB RAM, 2x whatever the best CPU was for that unit.
• TP-Link AP225 access point

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Self Hosted IFTTT RSS Replacement

Ah. Sorry for the misunderstanding. FreshRSS uses the Google Reader API to connect with apps, so you could get an RSS app and get notifications through that.

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Self Hosted IFTTT RSS Replacement

Since you're asking specifically about RSS, I recommend FreshRSS and RSS-Bridge. FreshRSS can filter by keyword to mark things as read automatically, and RSS-Bridge Can help with making RSS feeds for sites that don't have them. FreshRSS can do that, too, but only with XPath. RSS-Bridge has a few more tricks. Also, I recommend checking out Wallabag, a pocket alternative that can output your saved articles as RSS feeds.

I use protonmail + porkbun domain + postmark, and it works great.

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in What does your current setup look like?

It can work on CPU alone, but allows for GPU hardware acceleration.

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in What does your current setup look like?

I have a Kasm setup with blender and CAD tools, I use the GPU for transcoding video in Immich and Jellyfin, and for facial recognition in Immich. I also have a CUDA dev environment on there as a playground.

I upgraded my gaming PC to an AMD 7900 XTX, so I can finally be rid of Nvidia and their gaming and wayland driver issues on Linux.

thejevans , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in What does your current setup look like?

I'll have to double check, but I came from a B450 board. It definitely allowed me to run my RAM at a higher XMP profile (4x 3200MHz), and it has way better IOMMU groups. Each PCIe device gets its own group, so they can all be passed to different VMs.
