  • I don’t have much issue with email as a technology. It does what it needs to do, and does it well. The client side software is what hasn’t budged in years - Search barely works, files and attachments are cumbersome, and spam is still rampant.

    It would be much cheaper and easier if users weren’t centralised under a few big providers that prefer to bar any and all access to said users if you’re self hosting, making it almost mandatory to use a private service.



  • Yeah it’s pretty much seamless. You just spin them up bare metal or docker (both are fine honestly) and follow any old tutorial for setup.

    If using docker, ensure you mount the qbittorrent’s download folder to /config/Downloads with a capital D or you’ll get a warning about paths being set up wrong.

    Also, I assume this isn’t really an issue for you unless you mess with the downloads after the fact, but *arrs expect the torrented media inside a folder with the title of the media on it. It picks through torrent naming conventions fine, but when I migrated some movies yesterday I noticed it wouldnt pick up any video files that weren’t inside a directory.



  • My current plan once new migration is completed:

    Primary pool - 1x ZFS (couldn’t afford redundancy but no different to my RPI server). My goal is to get a few more drives and set up a RAIDZ1/2.

    Weekly backup of critical data (eg. nextcloud) from primary pool to a secondary pool. Goal here is to get a mirror but will only be one drive for now.

    Weekly upload of secondary pool to hetzner storage box via rsync.

  • quicksync should let the i3 handle jellyfin just fine if you’re not going beyond 1080p for a couple of concurrent users. Especially if you configure the Nice values to prefer jellyfin over immich.

    I’m not aware of the platform for the n300 because it might be worth the initial setup, and have some room to upgrade the CPU later if it causes trouble.

    If OP is going for multiple systems, I’d definitely agree on making one of them a pure NAS and let a more upgradable system run the chunky stuff.



  • most paedophiles are cis men. Cis women paedophiles absolutely dwarf paedophiles trans people even when accounting for population.

    It turns out, people who violate others don’t need to go through years of doctor’s visits and dehumanizing bureaucracy to breach someone’s boundaries.

    It’s just the same fascist projection repeated ad nauseum because it works. You immediately have to go on the defensive and tiptoe around the taboo subject of paedophilia instead of actually challenging their assumptions. Anything less gets you accused of accepting child abuse, which is just the first step repeated again. By the time you’ve even addressed the claims, anyone worth reaching out to has logged off and the fascists have inched closer to the levers of the state.

    It never was about paedophilia, or rape, or abuse, or sports. It’s about exploiting emotions and appealing to a constructed idea of “common sense” that can tie you up in its endless tendrils so they can ignore you and dehumanise you more efficiently.
