I’m concerned one of the side effects of brainslugs is that the host can’t see other brainslugs.
But would that mean I… have a brainslug? Everyone in that room sound like whiny kissasses flaunting too much money so I can’t have a brainslug, can I?
No, not yet.
I have the same sensors, but on many windows. If I have windows on either side of the house open simultaneously and there is a favorable temp difference outside vs inside, an automation turns on an air exchange fan. If they are closed, I use advanced heating control
I get what you are saying, but in the case of the internet, you need an IP address to connect rather than simply exist with a computer. Someone needs to know where to send the data.
There are however free connections: unsecured neighbors wifi, city wifi, hotels, and even busses/trams. Lots have limitations to hogging bandwidth though.
Yup. Results come back listing the server the file resides on.
I run multiple Plex servers and just pin libraries to the main screen. It’s pretty straightforward.
EDIT: Oh! Do you mean Plex and jellyfin on the same interface? Sorry, no clue on that one.
Nothing to debate here with a username like that. Just smile and nod as I skip to the next post…
First thing that comes to mind is a mechanic’s stethoscope.

I got a ticket for parking next to a red curb after the resident painted it. Had to go down to the city and get confirmation it was fake to get the ticket dismissed.
Not really angry about that one. Taught me good info about the government back then.
Yeah, Lemmy is pretty small. Even I miss the massive subreddits or moreso the small niche ones.
I will point out that Reddit is roughly 20 years old and that audience took time to grow. I don’t really want Lemmy to grow that much because it does bring the riffraff that plaged reddit, but it is pretty lonely out here in the corner of the internet. I do find myself refreshing apps hoping for new content quite often.
I used to think that too, but it’s day 144 and still no tomatoes!

Bitwarden/vaultwarden is a popular option for selfhosters.
Just pointing out that housing is so absurd in that area, parking spaces are housing in many of those areas. I drive through and the roads are lined with campers and RV’s from all the tech workers grabbing their bag of gold after a couple years and bugging off somewhere cheap.
Personally, I think IPv6 is not a good choice for any service you don’t want associated with a specific device. As I understand it, the prefix delegation comes from the ISP, but often the interface ID is derived from the machine’s MAC address which is a link to specific machine hardware, can reveal information about the host, and possibly deanonymoized across networks.
I’d stick with IPv4 because NAT gives a tad more anonymity. Just my $0.02 though.
That’s good news! It would be great if relays made it difficult to be targeted. I last tinkered with TOR almost… Jeez!.. 20 years ago haha!
I ran a relay too way, way back in the day and I remember almost a third of the sites I used blacklisted my IP address within days. It wasn’t cool.
I ended up shutting it down, resetting my cable modem, and spoofing a new MAC address on my router to get a new IP address to get everything working again.
Using a VPN is smarter. I wouldn’t run that on IPv6 whatsoever.
About 10 years ago, I just moved and my new neighbor had an open network. Problem was they were 2 houses away and across the street. I set up a tiny repeater in my car with a battery pack and parked half way between us.
It worked surprising well for about 6 months.
I just did something sort of like what you are doing and after a few hiccups, it’s working great. My Synology just couldn’t handle transcoding with docker containers running in the background.
Couple differences from your plan: I chose a N100 over the N150 because it used less power and I wasn’t loading up CPU dependent tasks on the thing. The N150 is about 30% faster if memory serves, but draws more power. Second, do you really need a second m.2 SSD BTRFS volume? Your Synology is perfectly capable of being the file storage. I’d personally spend the money you’d save buying a smaller N150 device on a tasty drive to expand the existing capacity then start a second pool from scratch.
Finally, I wouldn’t worry about converting media unless you are seriously pinched for space. Every time you do, you lose quality.
Ditto to your comment except power usage. I moved my Plex/Jellyfin (and hopefully Immich soon) docker containers to an N100 for the hardware acceleration. TDP is 6 watts on some of these devices and CPU use sits around 2% unless Plex is doing DB optimizations (about 60% for a bit). I haven’t measured consumption or my older server, but I feel moving some CPU intensive services to hardware GPU is saving a few watts.
This is absolutely the gatekeeping and control Trump’s dictatorship wants to wield over companies and people. I’d be surprised if they stuck to precedent; their whole shtick is to rewrite application of law to their objectives, sidestepping Congress.
