    I use ionos since 10 years and I‘m very happy, but only for webhosting stuff. The VPS Services I get from Hetzner and I havent really tested them.

    I did have a meeting with IONOS this week though about it and I‘m positive about the UI for new vps owners since its quite easy to grasp but I dont think they’re a better option than hetzner.

    Chinese firm ByteDance, which owns TikTok, has lost its appeal against a European Union decision to designate the company a digital "gatekeeper" www.dw.com

    cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/889819 > The EU General Court in Luxembourg ruled that the designation was warranted under the European Union's new Digital Markets Act (DMA) because short video app TikTok exceeded relevant thresholds including global market value and the number of EU users. > > Labeled companies are prevented from forcing users in the bloc to consent to have access to a service or certain functionalities. > > ByteDance had argued that its global market value largely came from China, rather than the EU. > > It also said TikTok does not operate an exponential user expansion model and that it was acting as a "challenger" to digital monopolies operated by established platforms such as Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, and Alphabet, which owns Google. Both companies are also designated as "gatekeepers." > > But the EU General Court rejected those arguments, finding that TikTok could no longer be considered a "challenger" on the market, unlike when it joined back in 2018. > > The judges concluded that TikTok had "succeeded in increasing its number of users very rapidly and exponentially" since then, and that its large number of European users does indeed contribute to its global market value.

    Peertube is essentially mastodon or lemmy with videos. Its trivial to set up compared to the other two. I run a private instance so I cant talk about the rate of issues but from an experienced admin perspective, its no more of a problem to set up and run than the others.

    But I too think that long term it would be great to have more user friendly setups as to enable less experienced folks to host it.

    Having as much on one machine as possible has efficiency and maintenance benefits since you have less machines to configure. The drawback is that multiple services can add up peak demands and run the machine oom which you can either solve by leaving extra headroom or make them redundant imo.

    Someone with more experience than me might have other ideas to add.

    As someone with diagnosed mental health issues, I can tell you that I mean no harm. But sadly, the pure difference in perception paired with unfamiliarity of the two parties makes the situation insanely dangerous, not the person.

    You never know why the person is in this predicament and if they have a tendency towards violence, robbery or other things. I‘m not saying they are. I‘m saying you have to assume they are before making that decision. Can you defend yourself against a pulled knife or even gun, do you have enough mental capacity to observe them at all times. Those odds do not look good.

    So, although I would never willingly look down on folks less fortunate than myself. I too will never ever let a stranger into my house if they raise any concerns.

  • Haui Haui 2 months ago 100%

    It really doesnt matter much imo. The obvious best choice here would be three copies on three media in three locations. You can also argue for more. It depends on your threat model. If you have an offsite backup that is reachable from the host machine, a ransomware attack can still devastate you. I have therefore made deaddrops for backups so no machine or user has access to all of them.

    My general rule with backups is the standard you pretty much hear everywhere: 3-2-1

    3 copies of every file you value 2 different media 1 off site

    For example, you can have two copies on one drive and a third in the cloud. That way you prevent accidental deletion, bit rot and house fire.

    Hi folks! I‘m currently setting up a „fediverse vps“ so to speak but federation is no joke so far. I got lemmy, mastodon and matrix running pretty stable now (in docker and behind nginx proxy manager which seems to be very rare). The next step is enabling federation and so far it’s brutal. I broke matrix by changing up the .well-known stuff and now nothing works. I think my knowledge is just lacking at this point. Does anyone have experience with a setup like this and wants to help? I basically need the npm config and/or other changed configs for federation. Thanks for reading. Have a good one.

    I agree completely. I would argue that we dont need the comments at all. A post, laying out the initial comment chain would be enough. Like I said „user1“ and so on but with real names.

    The reason I‘d like to do it this way (without comments but preserving the OPs names) is twofold: its not pretentious (as comments from the same person) and it would honor the original posters.

    A way to lower dependency on reddit.

    Hi folks! I just came up with something, no idea if its good but you judge that: **TL;DR: Can we make a browser extention or something that gives us a button to copy an entire comment chain with crucial, niche advice to a lemmy post or is that gone since the API went down?** I often google things for work and hobbies, code snippets, log entries, ways to make my insane docker setups work. For example, I got a lemmy instance working in docker with [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/nginxproxymanager/comments/1485y0d/getting_lemmy_running_with_a_separate_nginx_proxy/). Very often, I end up on reddit. If the post or comment in question is helpful, I'd like to upvote or ask a follow up question. For that I still need my reddit account. But for the "praise helpful comment" I could also do that here. Some people link to the comment/post which also brings back traffic to reddit (which I dont like). So I'd probably just copy the post (and/or comment chain in question) to a new post on lemmy. It would go a little like this: - User1: "Post describing a topic" - User2: Helpful comment nr 1 - User1: Follow up question - User2: Helpful comment nr 2 For that, I'd need some kind of automation. Since the API is gone, I don't know if that is possible but the option to "copy entire comment chain up to this comment" would definitely be awesome. Feel free to tell me otherwise. *Edit: If this isn't obvious: It would accumulate the most helpful stuff from reddit on here without it being blindly crossposted by bots and would push google results (because its niche!) and most likely not a copyright issue because it is so few things that it should fly under the radar.*

    „Read the room“ triggers me to no end

    Recently I read through the comments on a post and someone suggested OP should „just read the room“. I have been told this since I was young and it triggers me every time. Being unaware of social dynamics in a situation is a thing a lot of autistic people I know struggle with. „Reading the room“ in my understanding means „becoming aware of the unspoken things in a situation“. Collins dictionary says: If you say that someone reads the room, you mean that they understand their audience and adapt what they say to suit it. I think, although not on purpose, saying this is massively ableist and making fun of someone for „not reading the room“ is harassment imo. Feel free to give an opposing opinion as well.

My question now is, how would you do it? Just pirate music since I have a subscription and am entitled to listen to music? Btw. the issue is with sonos cloud services so the music services are available everywhere but in sonos. If I had a way to stream music from apple or amazon in my homenetwork, sonos should be able to pick it up. Also, what do people do with sonos products?

The Linux version doesn't even have it's own pictures that come with it. If you're curious I just used apt install streamdeck-ui instead of the complex stuff that is on the web (and doesn't work anymore because outdated). Am I just using a **really** outdated version or is the linux version just trash? TL;DR: Linux version of streamdeck ui looks 20 yrs old while the windows version looks like photoshop.

It was running quite a rough config, ubuntu 22.10 with a pulse audio mod (disabled pipewire so I could hear sound when RDPing in). I now reverted those changes with a guide (because my microphone would not be picked up by audacity) but it promptly destroyed my Desktop gui. I reinstalled ubuntu-desktop and the gui works again now. But after disabling pulse and reenabling pipewire, I don't get any sound output at all. `pipewire status` gives me the following output: ``` ● pipewire.service - PipeWire Multimedia Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/user/pipewire.service; enabled; preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Tue 2023-09-19 10:17:16 CEST; 5min ago TriggeredBy: ● pipewire.socket Main PID: 3211 (pipewire) Tasks: 2 (limit: 38029) Memory: 4.1M CPU: 122ms CGroup: /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user@1000.service/session.slice/pipewire.service └─3211 /usr/bin/pipewire Sep 19 10:17:16 systemd[3204]: Started pipewire.service - PipeWire Multimedia Service.

    3060ti on Ubuntu feels like old Vodoo GPU

    Update: I installed CS:GO and it runs insanely smooth. Metro didnt start at all. I now have cycled through many compatibility options and tried proton experimental, latest and now linux runtime. Now it works on solid 60 fps! Hi folks! I made it! I built a daily driver with Linux! But I'm running into the first walls, which was expected but is still annoying. So I bought a 3060ti which I got for a reasonable price and tried playing metro last light redux. Sub 10 fps. I'm pretty baffled atm. Have checked (and for sure, reddit was the first answer) but so far no dice. I changed from open source to proprietary driver, no changes either. Is there a troubleshooting guide or something? Can I even guarantee my card runs on full capacity without windows? (sorry, I'm not used to linux desktop). Thanks for reading! Have a good one!

    How did you find ubuntu server (the OS)?

    Hi there! I found ubuntu server when I was starting to work in tech fulltime (I had done admin work and dev stuff before but not exclusively). A lot of folks had some linux experience and I learned about VMs at the time. So I spun up a ubuntu server vm to check out linux. It took me a bit to get accustomed to the command line but it worked pretty well. Knowing some programming languages definitely helped to grasp the syntax. I worked with the VM for some time and then started searching for ways to use my knowledge and hone it further. So I grabbed an old server that was in my basement and put ubuntu server on it. This server now sits in my other room and has 8 TB of data on it, movies, tv shows (all backups of course...), my home automation system, dashboards, vaults, cloud data. The data is mirrored and backed up off site. I also then came across it again at work when I took care of some servers we had there. It has been quite a ride so far but also a lot of fun. currently trying to phase out my windows laptop for a ubuntu desktop tower. Wish me luck. :) Thanks for reading. I'm curious to hear your stories.

    Grafana, Influxdb and Flux - issues with Dashboards

    Hello everyone! I'm using a TIG stack (Telegraf, InfluxDB, Grafana) in Docker to monitor my server and I keep running into the same issues. When the Telegraf container gets updated (removed and recreated), the Hostname changes. This leads to Grafana to split the data (best case) or show no data at all (worst case) since it was told to show a specific field which is named after the host. Now, I have tried regexing the column (example: /uptime_format/ in flux) but I'm a noob at both regex and flux so that doesn't work either. I think I might need to set the hostname in the telegraf container but I thought I'd ask if anyone else solved this problem before. :) Thank you for reading.

    Would it be possible (at some point) cool aur by pulling heatenergy from it?

    I recently had a discussion about ACs and how they heat up cities. Then I found an article about theoretical increase of efficiency of acs by using the heat pulled from a room to run a thermoelectric device and getting some of the energy back that was used in the ac. I‘ve had this downstream thought many times already: since hot air is basically just energy stored. Could we theoretically pull (all?) the energy from the air (depending on desired temp) to cool it and casually fuel our society’s energy needs?

    Thinking of getting a retro gaming machine.

    Maybe I‘ll mod my ps3 to make it emulate games. I heard that works pretty good. I obviously would like to get tons of old games and since they’re not sold anywhere for a fair price, I deem it morally sound to *find* them. I heard of „handheld retro gaming consoles“ which also have *found* games on them. Does anyone have experience with those? Btw: Since the graphics are pretty low res, that could be a better alternative than the ps3 since the 55“ tv its hooked up to might make it look worse. It’s just an idea at this point so I‘m happy for any direction. I figured c/retrogaming might be wrong since talking about finding unlicensed games might be against their rules. Feel free to advise me otherwise. P.S.: Forgive the ignorance. I know my way around commandline and some medium advanced programming but I‘m not pro at sailing the high seas at all.

    Unattended upgrades doesn’t work for me

    I recently activated „unattended upgrades“ so that I might not have to update my system every 2-3 days by hand. But nothing has really changed. From the logs I see that unattended upgrades does updates regularly but it never does all of them. So I still have updated pending every couple days. I know, there are updates that can break your stuff but that can happen anyway. Maybe I‘m just missing a config entry or something. Btw. the same goes for autoreastart if needed. That I should activate as well. Does anyone have experience with it?

    Hi folks! I moderate a community but the app I use while on the go (memmy) does not seem to have any mod tools. I can’t find a way to delete posts on the community I mod. Maybe its my mistake. Does anyone know of a solution for this? Except maybe using the web interface I assume. Thanks in advance.

    Newest docker update wrecked my sytem for an hour

    Hi folks! **System** I‘m running ubuntu 22.04.2 on an old terra miniserver g2 with a xeon 4 core without mt, 16 gb ram and a redneck engineered usb-stick/ssd/hdd config which was supposed to be temporary. I have a 3-2-1 Backup solution though. **What happened** Today I opened my grafana panel and found it not working. Portainer told me that my influxdb container is down. So I ssh‘d in and the system told me it needed a restart. So I ran an update (including docker) and restarted. Nothing worked. Turns out, my dns (pihole) was offline. I found that docker was down completely. Grep syslog told me that docker couldn’t start since the docker config was defective. **An old mistake coming to haunt me** Turns out I had made a „weird“ docker config, using the /erc/docker/daemon.json. Instead of { „asset“:“value“, „asset“:“value“} I had done {„asset“:“value“}{„asset“:“value“}. This led to the error but didn’t bother me for over a year and worked well. Something in this new update must have enforced the syntax or soenthing. **TL;DR** I made a janky docker daemon.json conf and got fucked by the update today. If your docker stops working, check the logs/daemon.json

    Thinking of a local mail storage with anti spam

    **TL;DR: I want to pull emails from 5 accounts on to my homeserver to anti spam them and have my clients pull from there** I currently have like 5 major email accounts on different providers which I use for 100s of accounts on many platforms. Some of these accounts are very old and come with the added bonus of no spam filter on the free tier. Now, if you use outlook, you can define anti spam rules there, I know. But since I‘m using many different devices and different mail clients, I can’t be bothered to make anti spam rules for all of them. So I thought it should be doable to pull all the emails from all my accounts and have them go through anti spam on my home server. Sidenote: I have anti spam on some email providers but I can’t redirect the one address to there as to use that accounts anti spam. One solution would be to just get rid of this one account but I‘m a little anxious about the consequences since it is my oldest account with unthinkable amounts of accounts linked to it. Does anyone have a similar scenario or an idea for a solution?

    Are there „lawfirms“ that specialize on antitrust?

    I know I could google it but I prefer to discuss it here: There are many interesting discussions about antitrust, companies being jerks and corporats making the world worse. I think it would be cool to have a couple „rogue“ lawyers band together and start making class action law suits against corporations and states for using/enabling anti consumer/anti competitive practices. I have never been asked to participate in such lawsuits so I assume its not being optimally presented online so far. Feel free to correct my impression here. TL;DR: I think we need more ways to fight against anti consumer/privacy stuff in courts all over the world.

    Trying to set up CCTV Cameras

    Hi there! I‘m running a somewhat developed home server setup and add more services every month. But this thing eludes me: I have 2 IP cameras for my pet room (I have a couple bearded dragons in terrariums). The cameras are fenton 351.150 I can stream many different formats to home assistant or the browser. I also tried multiple apps like viseron (which is pretty cool) and agentdvr from ispy (which always makes the hair on my neck stand up since it looks like it was cobbled together). But what doesnt work is controlling the camera, mostly. I believe agentdvr could do that but I‘m really unhappy about that app. Also, it pushes monetization very hard albeit seeming to be open source. I also found this: https://medevel.com/10-cctv-open-source-solutions/ **Does anyone have experience with a non-jank and non-pushy cctv solution that lets me control the cameras instead of just streaming?** Have a good one!

    New PWM Fan installed, turns out PWM not available.

    Hi there, I'm running ubuntu server on my *Wortmann Terra G2 with (now upgraded) 16G DDR3 Ram, Xeon E3 1220v3 4 Core, with now 6 Drives (2x8 TB HDD Raid1, 2x 1 TB HDD Raid 1, 2x 250 GB SSD - soon raid 1)* While I generaly know my way around ubuntu, the sensors lm is giving me a hard time. The G2 runs on an *Asus P9D-i itx Motherboard with kvm module* which I have not touched yet. I bought a fancy noctua 120mm casefan since my harddrives run too hot in the case (which is tiny, google wortmann G2). The new fan runs well but I cant detect the fans for either the cpu or the case. I tried sensors detect and installed fancontrol, just to find out **the fans are somehow not discoverable**. Any ideas how to proceed? I'd really like to give the casefan a specific speed to run at. Pretty sure I could gain knowledge in the bios but i really dont want to bring a monitor to the server just for that. **TL;DR: my ASUS P9D-i board wont show me fanspeeds with sensors-detect. What to do next?** In any case, thanks for reading. Have a good one. Edit: I put a picture of the tower in the post if you're curious. :) ![](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/bdc4aeee-8264-4948-87a4-ae3013897e91.jpeg) Edit 2: I forgot I have the manual for the server mainboard on my pc. the mainboard can see the fanspeeds and you can change the behavior there. How would I change that?

    Language barrier is severely hindering lemmy‘s growth

    I just checked the github page and it seems this bug is low priority: Memmy does sometimes not let you post or comment due to a weird bug that thinks you‘re posting in the wrong language. I just want to point out that I‘ve had this bug twice so far and others (maybe many) will have it too which severely hinders the growth of lemmy at this critical time. If someone reads this who has any clout, stuff like this is what can trip a promising platform like this. Exponential growth and all. Have a good one.

    Question about migration.

    Hi there! Last time I posted here, my problem was solved quickly so I'll try one more time. :) I would like to migrate/mirror one of my reddit subs on here including a lot if not all posts. This would mean the following things in excalating order: - Make a bot crosspost every new post on the sub - Copy seed content (like 50 or 100 posts?) - Copy the entire sub history I have read that this can strain an instance (at least the last one I suppose) and I would like to know if it is ok to do so and if I need any help from someone with high permissions. Optimally, I'd do point three but 1 or 2 would be good as well. Have a good one! :)
