I know it's fashionable to shit on Plex here, but OP either has his server misconfigured or is just trying to stir the pot:

Also the weekly intentionally misunderstanding how Plex pass/Plex remote pass works in order to complain:

Wow, 7tb for $21/month. That's much better than I've been seeing.

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Problem with that is there is no backup in case of flood/fire/tornado etc.

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah it sucks because Microsoft charges $10/mo for 6tb.

Anyone know of a good managed hosting (or vps) for Immich that doesn't break the bank? I have about 5TB of photos/videos and I don't feel safe without a remote backup. I played with self hosting and I really (really) like Immich but I keep Google photos/Drive just to ensure I won't lose anything.

Hm I like that idea. That's a bit out of my wheelhouse but worth looking into. Maybe also have two zones? A larger one to trigger the location update?

Hmm my phone always takes a few minutes to update that I'm home.

Ah ok thanks, so just to be clear, when you come home it will still "alert" you to an "intruder" (until your GPS updates presumably).

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 1 points 10 months ago (6 children)

That's cool, so with the AI chip it can recognize individuals people and pets? Just wondering how you prevent it from alerting you for well, you.

Last I looked into this Frigate was the most robust path to take, they recommend cameras that are about $50-$100 each but in my playing around I connected a Yi camera ($10) with custom firmware.

That said it was all a bit over my head and I had trouble connecting it to home assistant and gave up

I would love a follow up post with whatever setup you go with!

If there was a book or website out there that described something poisonous as not poisonous, and someone believed what was written and became poisoned, I think most reasonable people would point the blame at whoever published the bad information.

Yet when the bad (potentially deadly in this case!) information comes from ChatGPT, OpenAI gets a pass (including by everyone so far in this comment section) and the blame is placed on the person who was poisoned!
