#weatherserver — Public Fediverse posts

So proud 🥹 of #footiMac rn.
Taking everything I throw at her!
#selfhost Mastodon and Pixelfed
Nginx webcam stream
WeeWx weather server inc. rsync to remote
local DNS server
Periodic webcam archive and 30min timelapse generation
And now it's chugging through (at 0.7fps) a 30 day timelapse video.
Just goes to show you shouldn't just get rid of old hardware! It can do a lot, given the right tasks!

Checking htop on #footiMac after two weeks of operations with its upgraded resources, and new responsibilities.

It is still far more responsive in all respects. Changes I've noticed:
1) very few web response delays for Mastodon retrieving posts/notifications or uploading pictures/videos.
2) when I logged in remotely before it would take a few seconds. Now it is nearly instant.
3) according to htop the loads are below 0.70 most of the time.
4) RAM usage has gone from 3.2GB (84%) to 6.3GB (40%)

Resources before: 4GB RAM - Dual-core i5 - 1TB HDD
After: 16GB RAM - Dual-core i5 - 1TB SSD.
