I recently made the jump. It’s crazy how much effort goes into optimising Nextcloud it still remains the most demanding thing on your server and your sanity.

Oh wow this is exactly what I wished existed. A standard TV experience without ads.


Well, cellbrite has been mentioned here quite a few times. They help law enforcement break encryption on phones. The literal enemy of privacy.


It depends how far back you go. I remember upgrading from 4MB RAM to 8MB to run Win95.
You can absolutely get the job of displaying weather done on a meg or two.
It’a not just GPU, memory and disk. It will clobber your network if they share any cables.
Cameras are extremely chatty and will bring your LAN speeds to a crawl by constantly chirping small packets across the wire.
Absolutely do not ever put a 24x7 camera stream on WiFi. It’s a straight up DoS attack on yourself.


typing in a passcode to wipe his phone before officers could search it.
I wonder if that’s actually what he did. You’re supposed to hand them the phone and let them type in the duress code. Then it’s not you who wiped it.


I use Peter Lowe’s ad list. It’s one of the data sources for uBlock origin.


I have used my ISP’s email relay to avoid the IP address prejudice. A good ISP should have one.


My friend has a Tesla. He is absolutely this person.


What my kid sees is mostly casual racism.
An Sqlite write-ahead log file? You can probably flush it manually.


You’d want to run captured light through a diffuser anyway.


The worst I had was a credential-stuffer bot that used a set of leaked credentials to get on my mail server and send spam. I changed the password within 5 minutes and it stopped. That was the end of it.
Once I had someone deface a website because wordpress wasn’t patched. I just restored the site from backup and moved on with life.
I would think that most of the time, you just join a botnet.
BUT someone getting into your email can let them do password resets to all your accounts. Then again, I self-host my email because all mail providers are reading your email by default. I’d still rather self-host it.


You can still just open it to the internet. Just do it on IPv6 instead. You won’t find it by scanning IP ranges like they do on IPv4. You’ll want to set up DNS for it though. Also get a free TLS cert from LetsEncrypt. It’s a bit of work initially.


I saw the JXL article recently. It’s good progress. Didn’t a major browser remove JXL support after it was added?
I’m on Ubuntu gnome. I think the biggest outlier was LibreOffice, which didn’t support any modern formats.

Strangely enough, the AVIF is displaying now.


Ubuntu server.
I found a dude maintaining a deb repo. I might give that a shot.
It’s kinda nuts that people have got it working and fully automates the packaging, but immich haven’t taken it on.


You’ve demonstrated my point perfectly 😆



I’ve really wanted to ditch JPEG. It’s a 34 year old format.
The problem is that AVIF, JPEG-XL and HEIC/HEIF don’t work in many places. At a minimum I would want them to display in my gallery app (currently Nextcloud memories), display in a browser, and have native support at an OS level (i.e thumbnail previews). Neither format comes close to this.
I may even move away from Nextcloud over it. I didn’t want to deploy docker just for immich (I love LAMP, btw). However Nextcloud is SO MUCH maintenance compared to the 50 other services running on my server.
This is exactly what I did. I replaced it with a Immich, a webdav client, and an xmpp server (prosody). I only needed online storage for phone photo access/backup and syncing my keepass DB and contacts. I set these apps up once and now I don’t need to touch them.
