That fourth thing is hunger. It only comes when the cat is fed on a schedule, as opposed to free-fed with multiple piles of food out all day. Feed in a schedule and you’ll suddenly see (healthy, right-weight) interested felines licking empty bowls.

s38b35M5@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Plex now want to SELL your personal dataEnglish4·2 months agoI completely agree. I thought Plex would be fast in the collective rearview mirror as soon as they started forcing connections to their servers, pay-walling, etc. I also had issues with the database corrupting and causing huge slowdowns. I spent days trying and failing to preserve my ratings, watch data, etc.
In the end, I switched to a much simpler setup of an NFS/CIFS share accessed by Kodi on my Nvidia Shield TV. If Kodi chokes (happened once since 2017), I can just wipe the app and/or reinstall and then import the local metadata (XML or NFO IIRC). That takes about five minutes. It just works. Kodi also gives me access to the IAGL, so that’s a huge plus.

Would second asking in the iX forums. I’ve managed to get replication help directly from iX staff before when using the forum. You shouldn’t have this issue, and you will find answers.
I’ve moved my disks to a completely new machine with fresh install and then import my config, reboot and everything is as it was. I’ve also done the same without my config and imported the pool with no problems, just need to recreate shares, and any jails (a feature which I no longer use) would need to be reconfigured to be 100% functional.

This reminds me of “Nyet,” cat. (Not sure why, since their coloring is very different)
Awesome! Thanks! I was initially sure the pedant was right, but my grammarly “research” was hasty and misapplied, and I thought I had learned a new thing I was doing wrong. I do a lot of those…
We both used links from the same source.
I’ve traditionally used no apostrophe for inanimate objects, like a bus.
The bus has wheels. Its wheels are black.
But when dealing with a gendered, thinking being, use the apostrophe.
Edit: no need for down-votes for a good-faith discussion, is there?
It’s*
noun, possessiveThe cat has knees. It’s knees are powder.
Possessive apostrophes are apostrophes (’) used with the letters at the end of a noun to show ownership over or a close connection with another noun. For example, if you were talking about the tail of your cat, you can add a possessive apostrophe and an s to show which noun is the owner.

I, too, have a toy-carrying chirper! Her name is officially Violet, but we call her Gubba. She has a stuffed fish she is particularly vocal over. We always know when she has it in her mouth, be cause her chirps take on a muffled, more variable and “conversational” tone. For example, she’s usually more, “brr-brr” for attention, but with her toy, she’s like, “uh-owwwwlll! Brrowww!” Finished off with some modulations caused by her chewing.
Here she is, chirping to let me know my lap needs room for her impending jump:
… And what usually follows the jump:

It could be network related, but you can test this from another machine (laptop, desktop, etc) or by using local playback on the pi. I have cheap network hardware, and have never needed better. All this is to say Kodi mounting NFS shouldn’t need much bandwidth or high end gear. Perhaps the issue is on the playback side. Good luck!

s38b35M5@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's the bang for the buck go to setup for AI image generation and LLM models?English2·1 year agoThx. I’m dabbling rn with a 2015 Intel i5 SFF and a low profile 6400 GPU, but it looks like I’ll be getting back to all my gear soon, and was curious to see what others are having success running with.
I think I’m looking at upgrading to a 7600 or greater GPU in a ryzen 7, but still on the sidelines watching the ryzen 9k rollout.
I still haven’t tried any image generation, have only used llamafile and LM studio, but would like to did a little deeper, while accounting for my dreaded ADHD that makes it miserable to learn new skills…
I’m reminded of this blog/article on Ars about ripping out OLS and reverting to NGINX. There’s some good info there, and also links to other of his posts on the subject and references. Good read.

Open Street Maps
- Use-case: Maps and geodata
- Privacy Policy: https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Privacy_Policy
- Contact: privacy@osmfoundation.org
I don’t self host presently, but if I get my server hardware back (moved out of the country a while) I want to dabble with a self hosted photo solution, so I’m glad to have found your post that keeps this fresh in my mind.
They also don’t always keep the metadata in the same archive (zip or tar) with the pictures they belong with, and that can throw off imports with tools that process Google Takeout archives directly. Its a pretty nasty solution, for real.
I moved about 140GB to ente.io before they had their newer takeout process, but some destinations can enable third party apps (like rclone) to do cloud to cloud. Nor sure which work best, since I couldn’t go that route myself.
s38b35M5@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked?English1·1 year agoEoL? They’re releasing betas regularly and announced 13.3 for Q2. You mean how they’re sort of winding down with scale taking the bulk of dev cycles? Not much to change with the platform, and security fixes will be backported to CORE. I think SCALE still doesn’t fit my use-case, hut when it does, and jails go away with CORE, I’ll shed a tear and pour one out for my homie.

I know that’s not the typical, “I just use a raspberry pi and…” answer we’re used to here, so take mine with a grain of salt.
s38b35M5@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Fan & thermostat for cabinet coolingEnglish1·1 year agoIf you mean running the fans in 240vAC, Comair Rotron make fantastic fans for this voltage. If you mean a regulator circuit and any old 12vDC fan, sorry for misunderstanding.
Lol. 😂 I hear you. I feed at 10am and 10pm (with a 90 minute variance to keep them from getting to good at timekeeping). After almost a decade, I figured out a way to sleep in! Course, they still whine at night starting at 8pm sometimes, but my vet says my cats are unusually fit and a good weight, so I know I’m not starving them like they want me to believe. Their chirps and whines have gotten more and more elaborate and detailed on the last three years.
