Copyparty v1.20.21 brings custom thumbnail extractors, SVG lightbox support, WOPI access controls, and fixes a critical FTP upload vulnerability. A solid file server that keeps getting better #selfhosted #homelab

Every rule I've made for my homelab has died within a month.
"Document everything." I have a wiki, last updated sometime in 2023. "No more manual changes, it all goes through IaC." Then last week I SSHed in and hand-edited a config because it was faster and I was tired.
I keep making the rules anyway. Feels responsible for about a week, then real life shows up and I'm back to doing it live.
Which of your own rules did you break the fastest?

The goal isn't to "fix" ADHD.
It's to stop asking my brain to constantly perform a job that computers are spectacular at doing.
Infrastructure handles awareness.
My brain handles action. 🧠⚙️Full build + YAML:

🧠⏰ I updated one of my favorite ADHD automations.
The original version used Alexa to announce upcoming calendar events.
Alexa has now been relieved of duty. 🫡
My reminders are now handled by Home Assistant Voice + OpenAI TTS.

Copyparty v1.20.23 is out with a hotfix for the broken right-click menu. Now packaged for Fedora 44 too. A solid self-hosted file server worth checking out. #selfhosted #homelab

I have added a shortcut to all my blog articles on #Selfhost and #Homelab topics. I will go through all of them in the next few weeks and update where necessary. Might also result in marking some as "outdated".

After a month of testing I can say that this player is the best I've ever found for self hosted servers such as navidrome and jellyfin (it also has plex but I have abandoned). On the site reports that there is also a linux desktop version but not yet tested. That will be my paradise for self hosted music 🥹

Lol I just learned that the reason for Xbox Cloud putting that 15, 10, and 5 hour limits on is "because it is getting more heavily used"
Sooo who thinks they had to rack some more gaming Hardware into their datacenters?
You know gaming hardware you could have had yourself at home and not pay a monthly subscription for? -
Fictional person to me: "What did you do for the holiday weekend?"
Me: "Oh, I migrated virtual machines between Proxmox servers." -
Just realised I should have upgraded from Proxmox 8 to 9 a week ago. Oops. Luckily it seems to have gone without a hitch.

Hm, I got ahead a little bit more. It turns out that PromQL already has the "count_over_time" metric, which counts the number of samples of a metric. This has for example shown a couple of metrics from k8s which produce almost 20k samples per minute, e.g. "etcd_request_duration_seconds_bucket". But I still haven't found a way to count the per-metric samples for a local block.
Need to dig a bit deeper into the TSDB Go package.

Having an iced coffee while I design the nomenclature for my upcoming network drops at home.
So far it’s:
<floor>-<zone>-<seq><run>Where:
* <floor> is a 2-letter floor code;
* <zone> is a 3-letter zone code;
* <seq> is the 1-indexed sequence;
* <run> is a letter, starting from A, identifying the run for plates with multiple ports or backup cablinge.g.:
RC-SSM-2A
RC-CUI-1A
SS-LAB-3BMy biggest dilemma comes from being reluctant to name zones according to the current function of the zone, in case that changes later. I could use cardinal points too. But they’re less intuitive.
Absolutely overthinking this but it brings me joy haha.

About bloggning.
It was no problem SSHing home to write blog posts in Nano and then running some home-brewed scripts. But my eyes aren’t what they used to be, and the keyboard in Termius is pretty bad. Not to mention getting no help with spell check (dyslexic). So I hacked together my own very simple interface.

As you know I switched to #quad9 from #cloudflare the other day. My completely and scientific assessment of performance can be seen in picrel. quad9 (orange) responds in ~10ms, cloudflare in ~19ms (green), #google in ~22ms (blue). Yellow is my upstream ISP (3-5ms).
So yes if you care about milliseconds use quad9 I guess?
