just wanted to mention that ChatGPT can write ansible scripts for you. the only caveat is that the script will need some fine tuning and debugging since its rarely perfect, assuming thats due to the many different sources its pulling from. also wanted to mention NextDNS as an option for the kids wifi, as it has built in time limits and will keep track of what sites they go to. includes ad blocking by default. forward your internal dns to nextdns for a seemingly robust solution. thanks for all.

I'm a big fan of verifying throughput after every new wire pull. I know various testers can check for bad wires, length issues, & "certify" negotiation speed. But a 30-60 second iPerf test lets me know for sure if I'm getting what I expect. Just put a device on either end, one in iPerf server mode, one in iPerf client mode & run a time based test (for example: iperf3 -c 192.168.1.92 -d -t 60). It runs on Linux, Mac and Windows. I've even run it on a Chromebook. Longer tests = better assurance.

Hey Chris and Alex, I've had Nextcloud running a $5 VPS since 2016, and in general it's been very reliable. However, my Linux knowledge and experience has increased much since then (many thanks to JB shows for that!) and I'd like to redeploy it using more modern tools. My current instance is installed the old fashioned way; downloading the tar.gz from Nextcloud and setting up Nginx and PHP on the host system. My question is, what installation method would you use for a rock-solid Nextcloud instance in 2023? Whatever I do, I'd like to get a similar 6+ year runtime out of it with only updates/upgrades to manage. Thanks for all the great shows, guys! See you at LFNW in October :)

just a reminder that the way LACP works you only use both links when multiple clients are involved. I.e if you do a file transfer from your pc to your NAS you are only going to get 10G because the way the hashing works all that traffic will only traverse one of the LACP links. however if we’re say backing up a bunch of machines some of the traffic would go over the second link. but it’s never quite 50/50, one link will always tend to have more traffic than the other.

The only app I know that does scrubbing well is VLC. swiping left or right in the video moves x seconds relative to the current position where x is proportional to how far you swiped, compared to dragging the play head which moves to the absolute position where you drop it. This is the only good way Ives seen to move accurately in a long file. I wish more apps (podcast, audiobook, YouTube client, everything) would adopt this.

Bravo for going farther down the UniFi rabbit hole! I love my gear. regarding things not coming back up due to dhcp not already being available, I strongly suggest making the infrastructure that your dhcp & dns depend on use true static IPs. I’m all for MAC reservations but you have to engineer out chicken & egg problems. Set a minimal number of static IPs & define a boot order so core services are up first.

Our school has organised a number of lectures about online safety and bullying that’s truly frightening. We have the girls’ devices locked down via Apples parental controls and screentime, but children are pretty inventive when it comes to circumventing rules 😂Wondering if Pi-Hole could be of help?
@genebean

Pi-hole can help. Also, put their devices on a separate SSID (assuming they are using Wi-Fi) and have it turnoff at unapproved usage times. If you can force a VPN you could be their gateway to the internet at all times and enforce content filters and such while on the go via Pi-hole and such at home.

i can take this one (long-time RAID/NAS user). #1: clean power. you absolutely NEED a UPS. To leave NAS unattended (we all do, right?) you should get them talking to each other. #2 be VERY careful with RAID5. suggest you don't go over 1.5TB each drive. Even 1TB drives will take long time to rebuild any dropped drive. I now use RAID6 so even if a drive fails during an array rebuild, it still chugs away. #3 avoid RAID10, its not 1995 anymore #4 RAID is *NOT* a backup. Offsite backups are king. :)

+1 for HDHomeRun. it's super nice to be able to tune into your local stations from any device. For home assistant leave notifications- you could try having an automation trigger based on your location and send a message to your wife with those deets. I do that with the slack module on my HA instance at the office to send a message to my wife in our family slack channel, and it works great. Although tasker might be more elegant like Alex pointed out, but if you want HA involved this works great!

First and last boost. Fountain just isn't feature complete and stable enough to be my daily podcast player (but it's close). Going back to Pocket Casts for now. I love the shows and wish y'all the best from my lurk corner!

To be up front, I went from Evernote to Joplin until I heard about the risk of data loss and the hot mess recovering data. I then tried Qownnotes, but I found it cumbersome to navigate. I tried Obsidian, but wanted a real self-hosted solution, so I settled on Zettlr last year. It was rough at first, but the code base has settled down and I'm really happy with it. It would be nice to have a mobile edition, but I really don't need it.

AKA Nomadicoder on Podverse. I don't take knowledgebase notes on my phone, only memo I can sync with my desktop, so I follow Michael Bazzell's recommendation and use Standards Notes for privacy because they encrypt. I'm on the free plan, and that suffices. for knowledge work, I use Zettlr on my desktop and use it for my zettlekasten. I put them into a Git repository and sync to Gitlab.

Hot boost from an OG SRE glad to hear JoeRess via JB! ZFS FTW! If you want more document management/info retrieval, how do you like Paperless* or Papermerge, maybe Mayan EDBS? Also, after much ado about home automation with lights and climate control, but what about door locks? Something like a self-hosted open-source Sesame w/no Internet connection needed, maybe with Bluetooth, NFC, ad-hoc WiFi? Many folks need non-invasive solutions that work w/existing locks, and manual override w/dumb keys.
