It might be OK now, but for a while there before they hard forked, you set yourself up for issues if you updated majors without being aware of breaking changes.

1·2 months agoOK, that looks pretty rudimentary. No MQTT that I could find, no clue how or if it does object recog. Not very serious.

1·2 months agoI’d forgotten about that one. I’m going to try it again right now. Thank you.
Any pointers on object detection with that?

2·2 months agoI’m not super familiar with the integrated one, but I think you can adjust confidence levels in at least one place. That might improve that. Or go back to Deepstack.

2·2 months agoTry running a Deepstack container in docker and point the AI feature at that container. It’s much better IME.

1·2 months agoEvery year or so I try to go to Frigate from Blue Iris so I can get rid of my last Windows box. But functionally they aren’t in the same league. Just the PTZ controls on Frigate drive me back to BI within minutes, besides all the rest of the features.
Some day…

5·2 months agoProbably use Gemma4 if your machine has the chops for it.
Rspamd seems to be common, it’s included in the mailcow stack and others. Seems to work pretty good, I’ve been on Mailcow for several years now with no major spam issues after I dialed it up a bit.
The term you would search for here is “split-horizon DNS”. Assuming you’re using a real domain name with hosts, you want a DNS server inside that resolves the LAN address, and the outside DNS server for everyone else resolves your WAN address (which presumably you reverse-proxy to inside host).
Even better is to not expose the service at all from the outside, use a VPN like Tailscale, and then use their MagicDNS service on the tailscale network to keep everything behind the firewall.
Every service you expose to the outside is more attack surface.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Nicer than a lot of commercial racks I have had to work onEnglish
8·2 months agoI had a car dealership I was to add new servers into a new rack and recable it. I walked into a room with about half a dozen servers balanced on a pile of cat5, BNC and serial cables about 4’ high. I spent 3 weeks untangling cables, removing dead cable, decommissioning serial and token ring networks and re-terminating or re-running ethernet that didn’t test well.
Pretty much everything was done by scream test because nothing was marked. I found an ancient server that was still used for manuals occasionally that was drywalled into a old closet in the shop when I traced down a line I disconnected and one of the mechanics asked where his manuals had gotten to. That server was shut down every night when they turned off the shop lights and booted back up every morning for who knows how many years when someone came in to work and turned on the lights.
I eventually got to the point I could set up my rack and SANs/servers, patch everything over from the network rack I mounted on the wall, and get guys going on the workstations.
We had a series of meetings after that with the sales team about getting a technical appraisal before we sold our equipment into dealerships. And every dealership I worked in after that was pretty similiar.
Honestly, it was an amazingly satisfying feeling at the end to look in that room after I was done. I get a little shiver 20 years later thinking about it now.

Memory bus speed of the Spark is poor and that’s a huge detriment.

11·2 months agoHonestly, the NC AIO is the same. I don’t think you even need to change any of the environment options in the compose.
But glad you found something that works for you.

5·3 months agoI’d suggest you take a legal course to find out what you’re responsible for that people upload to your server in your jurisdiction. Decide from there if you can handle that before you look into the technicalities of it first.

The time to do this was before the hard fork.
The easy way to do this is make your user(s) and use Forgejo’s migration functions. Why would you muddy this up like this? Just nuke and pave, it would take a tenth of the time and be a hell of a lot less chancy in their long term.







That is getting pretty far behind unless you’re leaving yourself open to go back to Gitea. I think 12 was the hard fork.
