There are some caveats, but you could always extend your storage capabilities with a USB-DAS. I currently have two with 4 slots each extending a small NUC-style server.
PS: I don’t see a mention of at least one SSD. If not already planned, you should at the very least use one for the OS.
Oh yeah, statistics gathering is something I think is generally a bit underrated. Many people see it as “gimmicky” compared to the automation features, but whether it’s statistics about electricity water or air quality, I’ve found that there’s so much insight to be gained about what’s happening in your home over the course of a day.
And since you’re talking about sleep quality: One thing I’ve recently found out is that there’s a addon for HA that can calculate the absolute humidity based on the temperature and relative humidity. That way you can figure out if opening the windows will increase or decrease the relative humidity and by how much BEFORE opening the windows.
Figured this out after trying to reduce the relative humidity of the bedroom by opening the windows and accidentally letting more humidity in despite the relative outside humidity being lower than on the inside.
I’m almost certain it’a troll, maybe even a previously banned one. Given their username it would be very ironic otherwise, considering that so far, in the week since they’ve created the account, they’ve only commented in order to rail against things that respect user freedom.
Eh, while I agree that some recommendations are dodgy at best, I’ll argue that Wireguard is not only adding to security, it also makes Fail2Ban obsolete. Due to the way it works, you’ll completely hide the fact that you’re even running a SSH server at all, and this includes even Wireguard itself. More importantly though, it’s pretty much impossible to set up Wireguard in an insecure way, whereas SSH provides you with plenty of footguns. You’re not risking locking yourself out either.
Also, security comes in layers.
Exactly. No root login and no password login will do just fine as basic measures, but after that Wireguard is perfect tool for this, no weird rituals required and also quite useful for any other services you don’t want and/or need to expose to the internet as well.
I can kind of see the benefits when it’s a single person speaking from a podium. Everything else though is just awkward to frame properly.
Looking into the metadata of the included PDF version reveals that it’s from 2004, so even a bit older than that.
Don’t worry. There’s still plenty of ESP32 waiting to be flashed with ESPHome and placed into their own little enclosure out there.

A nice grid lined notebook and a mechanical pencil is still my favorite.
If only my default font wasn’t so bad that it causes data loss.
That looks very interesting, mostly because it’s so different. I’ll have to take a closer look later.
I didn’t mention it, but that’s actually my one (small) gripe with Joplin. It would be neat if I could access my notes with any markdown editor without having to open it through Joplin. That said, I don’t know how I would’ve handled the file structure differently while keeping features like the history alive.
Just tried it for a bit. Looks pretty sleek and has some nice features, but it seems like it’s not open-source, which is something I’d like to avoid.
i don’t understand how i connect the pc to the domain.
Yeah, that’s the part where I think there’s some misunderstanding. You don’t “connect” the server to your domain. Instead, there is a Nameserver (most run by your registrar, GoDaddy) that hosts a list of DNS records, that you can edit, which point to IPs. So you need to edit those to point to your public IP (or set up stuff like DynDNS if your IP isn’t static) and once that’s doneand the port forwarding is also set up properly in the Fritz!Box you should be able to connect.
That said, what’s wrong with VPN? Particularly if you’re using Wireguard VPN, which was recently added to Fritz!Box, there shouldn’t be any performance differences. Plus, it would be safer than exposing services to the whole internet, doubly so if you’re not a networking expert.
The space before punctuation thingy is called “Plenken” in Germany and still sometimes used by people who learned on typewriters. Same thing with repeated spaces or dots… to indicate pauses.
But yeah, pretty unprofessional.
Had a hard time finding any recent information either, but with the recent release of 1.20 I’ve noticed that an Activitypub endpoint got added in the API and that permissions for it can be added to tokens. Seems very rudimentary so far though.
From my experience the “default” experience, which is Docker Desktop, is a pain, due to what you described. In particular, Linux containers and Windows file permissions just don’t mix well.
Other than that, there’s three options:
It doesn’t make any sense to me from the perspective that I’ve approached it.
I think you’ve already identified the issue. Docker is pretty “simple”, but you’ve got to approach it from the right angle or else it doesn’t make sense. Apart from suggesting the official documentation I can’t give you much advice on how to learn it because my path to understanding Docker was pretty much just trying things out and iterating on it. That said here’s a tips that could help:
As @housepanther@lemmy.goblackcat.com has already mentioned, building your own images is also pretty helpful since it strips a lot of the “black magic” away and teaches you how to further “mod” existing images.
I’d guess that it might be related to how you’ve set up the virtual network adapter. This depends on the specifc virtualization software you use, but the adapter for HA should be be set to something called bridged network, meaning the VM gets its own IP on your home network, no routing or NAT in between. HA will struggle to connect with devices otherwise, as all these protocols weren’t designed to work across multiple networks.
For services that need to be public facing (Mastodon, Lemmy, Gitea…) I’m renting a VPS. Services that are only for personal use run on my home server and are only accessible through Wireguard, with the VPS acting as a “bridge” whenever I’m outside of my home network.
Well, this explains a whole lot. I’ve recently paired a few devices in front of the receiver and then moved them into position and wondered why some of them kept dropping off.
