Migrated my self-hosted Nextcloud to AIO and I absolutely love it in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

One of the first services on my server was nextcloud in docker container from lsio. Never had problems so there was no need to try AIO, but so many people recommend that, it will be my next setup if this one fails me

Correct and sounds like the best of both worlds

I'll grab a kitchen sponge

You can just cut 30x30 mm peace and zip-tie it over filament ๐Ÿ˜‰

Enclosure will protect printer from dust and it will also keep the ambient temperature more stable. Dont make it hermetic sealed, better add few holes on the front and few on the back for example. I have a low rpm fan with dust filter because I mostly print PLA and in long prints (12h+) temperature can go a bit too high if there is no airflow at all. Keep in mind that enclosure should be removed sometimes for mintainance, removable sides is what you should look for.

You can leave filament on the printer, but if you dont use it for a long time it could get wet and then you have to dry it. Keep the rest of the spools in plastic sealed box or bag and put some silica gel inside.

Full calibration should be done once, but fine tuning when you face some issues or when you change to different brand or filament type. It depends how well the printer is assembled and how experienced you are, it can take only 5 min every few months, but begginers can spend days sometimes.

Extra tips: clean your rails and wheels whenever you can (once a month at least) for dusty garage. Get a kitchen sponge, drill a hole in it and guide filament trough the hole to remove any dust before extruder.

Welcome to the most fun hoby and happy printing!

Those who are self hosting at home, what case are you using? (Looking for recommendations) in c/[email protected]

For 9 disks I would need to print a bigger case, but this one suits me well for now ๐Ÿ˜‰

Should I use Restic, Borg, or Kopia for container backups? in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Daily backup to backblaze b2 and also to local storage with kopia. Its been running for a year I think, no issues at all. I didnt need a real backup yet, just did some restore tests so far

In my country pi4 8GB ram with PSU 130โ‚ฌ and then you need SD card and/or SSD

Adding my data as well:

My server is diy desktop pc - mbo MSI Z270-A PRO with celeron G3930 and 16GB RAM, 3x SSD on 550W PSU, idles at 23W. After adding another 3.5" HDD consuption went up to 34W. 34W in Ctoatia is around 34โ‚ฌ a year.

Some SFF PCs are at 10-15W. SBCs like rpi should be below 10 W, but dont think you can get anything new for 80โ‚ฌ

Sorry if this is covered somewhere but I couldn't find it! I need recommendations on a good starter NAS in c/[email protected]

Your cpu supports quick sync so I bet you are good without gpu. Try it yourself before buying one, you also drain less power

Issues with layer adhesion (i think) in c/[email protected]
[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

-4c is extreemly cold, get thermometer inside of enclosure and leave your heatbed on until it reaches 10-15C before you start printing. Even better get enclosure heater. Id also bump nozzle temp to the highest marked on your spool.

Why lower if you print everything at the same layer height?

[SOLVED] Cant access local services when using VPN (AirVPN) (lemmy.world)
 

[Solved - I was blind. I had to enable local access and disable DNS Switch mode in Eddie]

I wanted to edit main post, but fatfingered delete button.... Solved in meantime, but reposting just because of that, sorry about that...

I couldn't access local services running on home server (not exposed) while VPN connection is active (Eddie). Fellow selfhoster told me to check if I have enabled local network, then I also found settings where I had to disable DNS Switch mode which is solution! Thank you

Access local services when using VPN (AirVPN) (lemmy.world)

Hey guys,

I have some services running on home server (not exposed) and I also have AirVPN subscription. I'm trying to use AirVPN (for browsing) on my PC running POP OS with their app called Eddie, but once I connect to VPN server I cant reach my local services using custom DNS records. So I have to type http://IP:PORT or disable VPN to access it.

I have pihole with custom DNS Records that points to NPM on the same host.

I understand that VPN cant resolve my local DNS, but is there any solution to use both at the same time?

Edit: I do have static local IP set with custom DNS (server IP)

Title sounds confusing and It might be wrong terminology, sorry about that. I have POP OS and windows in VM (virtualbox) for few apps that are not available on linux. Im trying to install one app that requires diferent activation method because it recognized Im running virtual machine. Is there any way to hide that so I can activate the app the way I usually do on non-VM windows?

I hope I was clear enough, cheers

Is this normal power consuption on idle? [SOLVED] (lemmy.world)

Hey guys, I have Corsair RM550x that is turning on/off its fan in 65-70 min cycles when PC is on idle. When PSU fan is off I meassure 31W from wall and 21W when fan is off. Other PSUs are not like that and they are around 25W. Funny thing is that fan shouldnt even spin below 220W iirc and I found it hillarius that its using less power when fan is on. PC is working fine, but is this normal?

Edit: specs - MSI Z270-A PRO, intel G3930, 8gb ram, 2 sata SSD and no GPU

Edit 2:

Thank you all for helping me out!

I believe that no flow in case caused PSU overheating and due to lower efficiency at higher temp PSU was using more power. Enabling case fans with small positive pressure fixed the problem immediately and now its stable at 24W on idle. On the next diagram PC was idle for only short period of time, so you can also see power curve when it was running some services, but still "much" less than 30 W.

Edit 3: Before this post I asked Corsair about that, but got only bot level responses. Conversation was going in circle and then I gave up :D

Do I need antivirus program? (lemmy.world)
 

I have default windows defender, but didnt even know its antivirus lol. Is there any antivirus installed by default on any popular linux distro? What do you use?

I feel like antivirus can just annoy me when trying to crack something, but maybe defender protects me and im not aware.

Setting Alarm from Home Assistant (lemmy.world)
 

Hey guys, I'm using Home Assistant to set alarms on my phone and its working fine. I can set alarm time with a message using this string in my yaml file:

"android.intent.extra.alarm.HOUR:{{8}},android.intent.extra.alarm.MINUTES:{{15}},android.intent.extra.alarm.SKIP_UI:true,android.intent.extra.alarm.MESSAGE:Take Medication"

Now I'd like to add a daily repeat or for example repeat every Wednesday. From the same source I found it should be possible using EXTRA_DAYS. I couldn't find any example so I was trying every combination that came to my mind like:

android.intent.extra.alarm.DAYS:{{Calendar.SATURDAY, Calendar.WEDNESDAY}}
android.intent.extra.alarm.DAYS:{{ [Calendar.SATURDAY, Calendar.WEDNESDAY] }}
android.intent.extra.alarm.DAYS:[Calendar.SATURDAY, Calendar.WEDNESDAY]
etc.

How to shape that android.intent.extra.alarm.DAYS properly? Documentation says the values should be ArrayList<Integer>:

Documentation is on this link

Customize card for counters (lemmy.world)
 

Hello lemings and old redditors!

I have counter for each of medication that gets decrement with automations once or twice a day at specific time. That works fine, but now I'd like to see for how many days I have pills left before I have to resupply. For example I take 2 pills of decortin per day and since there are 8 in counter I have enough for next 4 days and that will be on 21.06.2023. But I take 4 pills of envarsus per day and that means I have to resupply in 7 days since there are only 29 pills left. So basically I want a Card on my dashboard with 2 additional columns, how can I do that?
