Used to use rclone encrypted to gsuite, until that gravy train ran out lol.
Now I've got 3 Unraid boxes (2 on site, 3rd off) and a metric shitton of drives I've accumulated over the years.

So I went back and played around with LW to see what all has changed since I last looked at it, and I finally remembered what the fatal "flaw" was for me previously workflow-wise. The reason I've come to always rely so heavily on my bookmarking links approach is because it's just a couple dead simple clicks, and more importantly it works identically everywhere - desktop, mobile, etc. doesn't matter. The workflow is 100% identical everywhere with no additional apps or anything extra required. Having to open a PWA (or even a separate app if it were native) when I'm on my phone just to save a link is a few more clicks and I didn't want to have to change up my workflow based on what device I happened to be on at the time I found something.
However, since I last trialed LW I have made a real hard personal push to switch over to Firefox as my dedicated browser, and while there's a few things I don't like as much the ability to run extensions even on mobile is positively amazing. The LW one appears to not be compatible officially, but with a little persuasion appears to work just fine...and if that continues working then I could totally see myself switching over to this! Still poking and prodding and trialing it out, but fingers crossed!

Nope it is not...if I'm completely honest my archivebox instance feels like it could tip over and die if I go tweaking much stuff at any given time lol, but as long as it's running and I don't touch it it seems to run well.
My workflow might be sort of stupid lol but 98% of what I bookmark is more just for professional documentation or tutorials or personal research or handy links or etc. that I've come across. In other words, rarely locked behind login, and rarely critical. Half the time it's helpful when sites go offline, but honestly half the time it just functions as if I ever Google search an issue I know I've seen before but can't remember how to fix, then if I see a page I land on bookmarked already then I know it was a good help to me in the past...that sort of thing. Nothing crazy and I'm sure there are better processes out there, but it's just a basic and simple process that works for me.

Sure, maybe that's the intended purpose/workflow. I feel like back when I tried it there was something about the general workflow that I didn't like, but honestly it could have just been something as simple as me and an "old habits die hard" sort of thing, lol. I'm honestly so engrained in the 'bookmark this for saving and the built-in cross-computer sync will make it available in a specific spot on each of the 3-4 PC's I use all the time" that it could have just been that for me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Archivebox gets my vote, only because despite how much I'd love to switch to Linkwarden there seems to be no viable way to schedule importing of something like bookmarks. With Archivebox, I can relatively easily set it up such that every night any new bookmarks I've added automagically get archived. This is works perfectly for my use case. I put a LW GitHub issue/request in for something similar a long while back but didn't get any responses so I'm guessing that's just not a priority...which is totally fine, it definitely seems to be great software if it fits your use case :)
LW definitely wins in the initial setup department without a doubt - I noticed that for the ~30 min or so I played around with it.

May not add security in and of itself, but it certainly adds the ability to have a little extra security. Put your reverse proxy in a DMZ, so that only it is directly facing the intergoogles. Use firewall to only expose certain ports and destinations exposed to your origins. Install a single wildcard cert and easily cover any subdomains you set up. There's even nginx configuration files out there that will block URL's based on regex pattern matches for suspicious strings. All of this (probably a lot more I'm missing) adds some level of layered security.

I totally agree - demo video I saw makes it look like it totally has both those features
d_ohlin 4 months ago • 100%
I definitely would lean into your camp for sure. The demo video shows it previewing suggested renames before accepting, but I see your point and I definitely had the same initial reaction lol
Hadn't seen this here yet, a co-worker of mine sent it my way so I'm just spreading the word. Looks interesting, to say the least! Anyone tried this out or had any other experience with it yet?

Well...fast by Ender/etc. standards lol but nowhere near pushing Ratrig performance envelopes here lol. Pretty much stock profile speed wise

Good question! I probably could try drying this filament again, just for kicks...I did dry it not too long ago but it's probably been long enough that it couldn't hurt. But yes I've seen this issue with virtually every PLA filament I've used when the factors I mentioned are all true.
When this failure occurred, I was about 100 filament swaps in (it's a multicolor print) so faint evidence of the nozzle purging/eject/reload/etc process in the midst of powerful fans is at least initially what I had attributed that to.
d_ohlin 5 months ago • 100%
Thank you! I should have mentioned this nozzle has a dual fan duct! sides!
Anyone have any idea what might cause this sort of issue on PLA? I run into it frequently, but pretty much only when all of the following points are true: - the print has multiple parts, so the extruder spends a decent amount of time off of any given part (only one part from this print is pictured) - the affected part(s), like the picture above, have a relatively steep outward overhang, extending over the build plate - the outward overhang part is relatively narrow, as seen from a top view This is from a printer with a 4028 fan (i.e. pretty massive airflow, server type fan) so even the 35-45% (based on layer time) I have it currently set at is more than 100% with single/dual 5015's or etc. I guess my other option is to try supports, but this doesn't really seem like a situation where supports should be needed. Anyone ever had a similar problem and solved it without just turning the speed waaaayyyyyy down?

Excellent, I'll check this out thank you!
Anyone have any good suggestions for a simple, multi-user tasks App? I used Keep for a long while, and have been using Nextcloud for the past few years...but every Nextcloud upgrade lately it seems I hit new bugs and since I don't use Nextcloud for a while lot else I'm considering just parting ways with it. That all being said, requirements I'm looking for would be the following: - Easily accessible on iOS and Android (native app is a big plus) - Simple interface with basic checkmark boxes that you can check off and the task disappears to some sort of "completed" list. No fancy markdown/etc. needed - Ability to share certain 'lists' with other users, so my wife and I can see shared lists - A Web UI is another huge plus - Self hosted is big obviously, but at the end of the day I just want something simple and reliable If Nextcloud tasks is still among the better options I'll keep limping it along just figured I might as well see if anything new has popped up since I last went down this road. Thanks all!

Fwiw, you can do a manual HTML import at present...the thing I'm most curious about is the automated re-import as manually uploading every day or few days isn't high on my list of desires hahaha :)
d_ohlin 7 months ago • 100%
Hey there! Love what you're doing with this project - it's super cool! I did want to ask a question though as I raised a GitHub issue a while back but received no response - is there any chance that the ability to automatically import .HTML bookmark backup files might be added in the future?
My use case is that every night I have my Chrome bookmarks automatically exported to a folder on my NAS - and currently I use ArchiveBox to read that file and archive any newly added sites. While this works, ArchiveBox has at times been rather finicky for me at least over the years, and so I'd love a little cleaner and more functional alternative. I'm not sure if others would find value in this being an option, but just a thought!

There was a study I read not too long ago that found the pre-movie anti piracy warning actually acted sort of reverse psychology on men, causing them to actually pirate more (as opposed to women). There have definitely been some gender-correlations in certain studies.

Honestly embarrassed to admit I've somehow never seen this one, but what a great clip lol
d_ohlin 7 months ago • 100%
This. I made a similarly boneheaded mistake a few months back and lost a fair amount of stuff. Thankfully 95+% of it was ancient program files and such that gave me a good excuse to go through and make some much needed cleanup actually happen for once.

It's fast.
d_ohlin 7 months ago • 100%
Idk what your connection looks like, but I have to agree that site feels insanely fast. Everything other than the store page click-to-full-load for me was probably ~1/3 of a second. Even the store page for me only took a second or so.

Make sure there is a warranty/decent return policy and test obviously as others have said...but I've bought more 3 and 4TB HGST drives than I care to admit and have very rarely had any issues. At the price you can find even larger TB sizes for I personally consider it worth the gamble for certain use cases.

My Hue bulbs are the "original" (3rd gen I think) before Bluetooth was a thing...but I just walked through this whole exact same thing and I could not get them to reset with any number of power cycle routines.
The only way I could get them to actually pair with my HA/Z2M was to manually add them to my old hub (long story why they weren't already in there), and then delete them.
Yes, it was a pain. But it worked well and once I got the process down I just did 3-5 at a time and worked through them all. YMMV.

Personally I purchased some cheap 10" Lenovo tabs for my new place. Haven't moved in quite yet, but some PoE to USB-C adapters and 3D printed wall mount cases outta get me out for ~$150/unit. Not the cheapest, but far from the most expensive. Should work well enough for what I need.
d_ohlin 1 year ago • 100%
I think you're on the right track considering those factors and others (integrations with HA is another big one for me). IMO it's always a balance though - a perfect example for me personally is I still use Nest Protect devices because they just freaking work, and work well. Same with a smart display I have and some minimal smart speaker usage. So sure, there's a little bit of "lock in" there, but as long as your risk tolerance is ok with that (mine is) then you're golden.
The factors you mentioned, among others like HA integrations (preferably official), company reputation (I'm personally ok with some minimal lock in if the cost/benefit calculation works out), etc. are my first considerations when looking at new products. Wherever possible local first control is a great plus and can be an absolutely huge factor to be sure.

I get that part, and it all makes total sense. I was only confused on the "torrents will be detected" part of the original comment.
d_ohlin 1 year ago • 100%
I get that - I was just confused at your "torrents would be detected" comment. I understand using a VPN would be visible and may be against whatever TOS they have.

I've had exclusively Amcrest's in the past, but for my new house bought some rebadged Dahua's from empire tech. Only set one up so far but seems good too! Reolink often keeps some pretty damn impressive pricing for their feature set, too.

VPN sure, but if he's using a VPN then all visible torrent activity should be terminated at the VPN server correct? Assuming they aren't installing management software on whatever endpoint device OP is using, how would they be able to view the specific traffic between him and whatever VPN server he is using?
In any case, I would agree with another poster that Linux ISO's and cars to a seedbox and then transfer via SFTP would be the best route.

This is sorta where I'm at. It's not an apples to apples thing I get that, and while I don't have a Prusa their standing in the 3d printing community is straight up legendary I know.
Wish it were a hair cheaper, because $1,300 assembled with enclosure kit (to make it as close to, say, X1C as possible) is still a bitter pill when only $200 more gets you abrasive printing ability, larger build volume, faster still, 4 color MMU, etc.
There is the quality angle, and the angle that a Prusa is conceivably infinitely repairable...which is a big deal. Just wish it were a few hundred cheaper to sort of compensate or allow for some of those upgrades.

Ooooph. Owning both a modded to the nines Ender 3 v2 and a vCore 3.1, there's a part of me that wants to add the simplicy and MMU functionality of the X1C to the mix at some point....but this is uhhhhhhh scary. No thank you lol!!
