I haven't had to adjust or look at my invidious instance configs in a long time, but I do remember that in their docker instructions and I think I configured my container to restart hourly (or maybe I made it every other hour? Daily?). I've had no problems with my invidious instance in a long time, but that may have nothing to do with frequent restarts.

  • I have aPBS server and my friend in a different geographic region has one. I backup to mine and he backs up to his. Mine syncs my backups to a data so l store in his, and his summer backups to a data store in mine. These are our offsite backups.

    To be clear, we're syncing our proxmox VM backups. But Proxmox Backup Server also has a client app, so I also back up my workstation to my PBS and it also syncs to the remote PBS.

  • It's important to me to use devices and services that are local only, but I could only find such robot mowers that are beyond my skillset to build. I have no interest in building and 3d printing and flashing firmware, etc. I just want to buy a device and use it, without my privacy being sold. I'm willing to pay, but I guess there's not enough market for anyone to build/sell that.

    Same with vacuums, by the way. I have a dreametech model that's supported by Valetudo, but the instructions to flash it sounded difficult and risky enough that I just use it as is, with my home map (and whatever other data it gleans) going through Dreametech's servers and being sold to whomever.

    Sad.

  • Only minor performance degradation with compression, but does the compression also mean the MOE model can run on a GPU with less VRAM? E.g., I don't think I can run GLM 5.2 on my W7900 (48G) even though the experts only take 40G, but would this compression allow it to run?

    A cool calculator and unit conversion utility written in Clojure. Parses natural English phrases like "how many inches are in 3 feet?" and evaluates them using arbitrary-precision arithmetic on all platforms.

    calc can be accessed from several runtimes:

    • In your CLI via Babashka, JVM Clojure, or Python (Basilisp).
    • On the Web at calc.rymcg.tech (100% client-side) or by downloading a copy of of the bundled website: calc.html.
    • As a Library in your Clojure/ClojureScript/Basilisp applications.

    Local only, no LLM used for natural English phases.

    Yeah, my thinking was definitely biased to my environment. I selfhost llama.cpp so even if Hivekeep doesn't require significant resources, whatever LLMs it runs will use my hardware.

    agents are activated serially per message, not all firing at once, and the persistent memory is exactly what keeps each context small

    It sounds like I need to try it!

    A friend of mine made a cool calculator and unit converter. It parses natural English phrases like "how many inches are in 3 feet?" and "300 miles / 65 mph in hours and minutes" and "download 10GB 1Gbps". You can access it from web (including PWA), CLI or as a library. It has a strong FOSS philosophy behind it.

     

    I own a house/land outright (as much as a government will let you own anything): I have no mortgage or liens. For examples when comparing options, let's use a nice round number and say that the house is worth $100,000.

    I'm interesting in buying a different house/land in another area.

    One option would be to use the equity I have in my current house towards the purchase of a second house. I'd put less cash down, end up with 2 houses, have a smaller mortgage than financing the entire price of the new house, but also have a lien on my old house.

    Another option would be to sell my current house and then buy the new house. I'd put much less cash down (or none), have a small or non-existant mortgage, and end up with 1 house.

    What are financial advantages and disadvantages of those options? Are there other options?

    I appreciate your thoughts and insight.

    Can someone please help me understand where Immich stores assets? I've read the documentation regarding external libraries and storage templates, but am still confused.

    I may have lost a significant part of my library: a large number of assets display a blurry thumbnail and show an error message when I try to view them (see screenshots). That seems to indicate that the images used to be there but now only a database reference still exists. I ran find /usr/src/app/uploads -iname "*image_0010*" in the Docker container (an example of my issue is an image file called "IMG_0010.jpg") and no such file exists.

    Here's how I mapped the volume in docker-compose.yaml - I think it's correct, but maybe that trailing "/upload" is a problem?

        volumes:
          - uploads:/usr/src/app/upload
    

    Here's the directory structure inside the Immich Docker container:

    |-- cli
    |-- server
    `-- upload
        |-- backups
        |-- encoded-video
        |   `-- 72be7b0f-b367-42d5-ae86-5d5feaa481ad
        |-- library
        |   `-- 72be7b0f-b367-42d5-ae86-5d5feaa481ad
        |-- profile
        |-- thumbs
        |   `-- 72be7b0f-b367-42d5-ae86-5d5feaa481ad
        `-- upload
            `-- 72be7b0f-b367-42d5-ae86-5d5feaa481ad
    

    Inside upload there's a library dir and a second upload dir. What's the difference? They are vastly different sizes so I'm guessing that upload/library/ is the main library and upload/upload/ is for uploads from the app:

    root@433fdc9d55c6:/usr/src/app# du -s -h upload/library/ upload/upload/
    246G    upload/library/
    18G     upload/upload/
    

    So my questions so far are:

    • Is there a problem with how I mapped my Docker volume (e.g., am I causing recursion issues?)
    • What's the difference between upload/library/ and upload/upload/?

    I also have a more general question about asset location: if I upload images from the Immich app, I presume they're stored somewhere in the upload dir - if so, does that mean that if I wanted all my photos to be in an external library, I would have to refrain from using the Immich app's upload feature (and roll my own method of uploading images to my external library dir)?

    Thanks in advance for any help or explanations you can offer! blurry thumbnailerror

     

    The Purina for Professionals website's "cookie management" (to opt out of cookies) is heavily dark-patterned. Not only does the popup at the bottom of the page not have cookie management (it has a link that takes you to a page that has a link to take you to cookie management), but the wording is intentionally counter-intuitive to opt out: Manage Cookies UI The option is called "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information", which suggests that by selecting the option, you want them to not sell or share your information. But in parentheses it adds "slide left to opt out of sale/share", which suggests that disabling the option means for them to not sell or share your information.

     

    I recently integrated self-hosted Ollama with Home Assistant and it's pretty cool.

    I'd like to also be able to ask the Home Assistant Assist things like "What movies are playing in MyCity?" and have the model in Ollama search the web and summarize the results. I use Open-WebUI as a frontend for Ollama and it can do that, but I can't see how configure HA's Assist to do it.

    Has anyone done this?

    Another example would be to ask "what's the weather today?", and I realize that HA has a weather integration built in and thus I wouldn't need Ollama to search the web for results. Is there a web search integration for HA, so that any question (like "what movies are playing") could be passed to it?

    My ultimate goal is to be able to ask questions about the world (i.e., search the web and summarize the results) and control Home Assistant devices. It doesn't have to be HA's Assist, but if I were to use Open-WebUI* for example, I'd have to come up with a way to link my audio-listening devices to it. It also doesn't have to be one "entity", but it should "feel like" one entity to the user (i.e., I don't want to have to speak to a different device or have a different wakeword to ask about the world than I do to control Home Assistant).

    *Open-WebUI has integrations to control Home Assistant.
