Receiving signal up in low earth orbit! Congrats!

Sounds like you should get a basic low power linux box going!

Well mySQL certainly is not, I judge this to be a correct statement!

Can you share what the final desired goal is? It sounds like your goal is actually to provide your services to Bob securely over the internet, is that a fair description? You mentioned eventually grabbing a domain, how do you feel about publicly exposed services with authentication? For instance, I use authentik in front of Jellyfin and paperless myself for a little extra authentication juice.

It sucks, but as someone who hosts their own services and supports business clients: If they have a budget, Office365 all the way. Does it suck paying money to M$? Oh hell yeah. But it’s a ‘cost of doing business’. Don’t screw around if they can afford it, just go O365 :(

try pfizer/poppy-lrud-normal-128, run it straight offff your neural chip and feed it 1 GB RAM you’ll be gud2go

Looks really cool. I’ve been working on implementing SSO through Authentik for every home lab service that supports it (Like Proxmox!) Do you think you’ll add SSO/SAML? If you do, I recommend not locking it behind the enterprise plan to encourage adoption.

Don’t sleep on the video walk through, it can be truly invaluable.

To be honest, would a spreadsheet not be a good use for this? There are FOSS asset trackers, but a simple .ods with a pictures column might serve you well. Are there additional features/conveniences you are looking for?

If you have any kind of firewall on your network, you might make sure it’s not blocking that port with a rule. Here’s a couple screenshots from my setup in case that helps.

The config in NPM

The config in HA’s configuration.yaml

Try adding just the NPM IP and HA IP first, then add the docker internal network as well if you still have issues.

Ugh, I KNOW. All these people developing these amazing alternatives and I have to checks notes make an effort to degoogle myself for my own good. SIGH.

Have you played around with hosting your own LLM? I’ve just started running oobabooga, it lets you download various LLMs and host them. I’ve been working on getting it set up so the AI can provide text for Piper, and take input from Whisper. It requires ideally an nvidia card, but will work with AMD and CPU. That would let you use the API to get text for piper to read. It’s a lot more privacy oriented than sending your queries off to ChatGPT. The larger models do take more CPU/RAM/VRAM to run, but perhaps a smaller tuned model would suit your needs.

ABSOLUTELY.

Never use one source for critical data! One backup is no backups! No backups is playing with the entropic forces of the universe!

1. Have at least three copies of your data - primary, backup, and offsite backup.
2. Store the copies on at least two different media types.
3. Keep at least one of those copies offsite - what if your house or datacenter burned down?

If you don’t care about recovering your photos, by all means use an actively changing project as your sole means of data storage!

I’m running a few Reolink RLC-520A’s on a separate VLAN with Frigate and Home Assistant - no GPU or Coral yet, just a CPU detector. It works pretty well! The reason they might not be the first choice is that YMMV with HA/Frigate compatibility based on which model you get, a little research must be done. Frigate has some specific settings to make the RTSP work better on the models that are functional.

And if the power in your area sucks, the power conditioning even a good small UPS provides is invaluable.

At least your chickens will enjoy it! It could be blossom end rot, which can be caused by calcium deficiency and exacerbated by an erratic watering schedule. I’ve not encountered it myself yet, but the picture looks similar to the ones I’ve seen.

Lovely! Did you plant it or did it show up by itself?

The multifactor can’t be understated as part of your security stance! I turn it on and enforce it on my home network for any service I host that supports it. And like mentioned elsewhere, only 80 and 443 are opened and they go straight through a proxy.

Neat! Once they are bloomed you should make some observations and send them in!
