I recommend cleansing fire to be on the safe side.

Bought a 4 pack of cync bulbs because of this article, my first foray into smart lighting

After 3 failed ansible upgrade attempts yesterday that caused the lemmy-ui container to continually restart with error: "Input buffer contains unsupported image format", each time reverting to prior snapshot, I tried it again awhile ago but this time removed the site icon before the upgrade.

The lemmy-ui container is no longer restarting itself, and I am getting new posts/comments, but there are a large majority of posts that don't show attached images, and also a large portion of user icons are not showing.

Anyone figure out the missing images issue?

I have been eyeing that device for awhile. How do you like it, did you have the screen separation issue, and what did you upgrade from if anything?

If it's anything like my workplace, about 25% of them are doing 75% of the work while the rest do powerpoints and stand around bullshitting all day.

no, but because of certain disgusting individuals at my workplace I keep a container of clorox wipes to clean/disinfect the seat on those rare times I can't holdout until I get home.

Synology is good. I upgraded the RAM in it to 8GB and populated it with 3x8TB Ironwolf drives. It's the backup target for all other machines on my network as well as running just under 40 docker containers. It's just not beefy enough to run VM's tho. The Optiplex machine just runs blue iris since it's a windows app. This one I added a 500GB SSD and left it at stock 4GB RAM. It works well with blueiris so long as you turn on intel native encoding and don't try to reencode anything onto the stream like date/time stamps. Don't have any issues with resources on it.

Free is good, and admittedly you have much more headroom to do fun things on your hardware :)

Unihertz, interesting, thanks!

Gave up running old server hardware. Way too loud and way too much power draw.

Now running a Synology DS918+ for most things and an old Dell Optiplex 3020 for blue iris. It no longer sounds like somebody is vacuuming in the basement all of the time and my power draw went from over 200W down to about 40W.

It's been said here that accessing content from the large servers via a federation connection is less taxing on the servers than accessing them directly, so there's that.
