overview for N0x0n

3 letter organisms: NSA - CIA. People tend to think that's a conspiracy theory... Even though we have so many real life examples about how the US and the 3 letters agencies have their hands all over the web and privacy and encryption is just a wet dream !

I used to self-host searxng for a while, but somehow the search results were always off and mixed with to much non-relevant results :/.

It's not about searxng itself... Rather how the most relevant info gets drown into AI slope and non-sense bullshit. The best blogposts/info are transmitted from people to people...

I'm kinda sad to admit that stupid AI "solved" this issue and had better results :/

For those who want a minimal no bullshit alternative: lychee is your best bet !

!@$& Homelab Networking in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Yeah, same here ! Can't believe how useful it is to have a git repo to keep track of changes, even as a non coder/sysadmin.

Simple pull/push commands and I'm now able to keep track of my bash scripts and specific .dot/config files.

To bad there isn't a way to keep side notes a la Obsidian. Comments in the code are okay, but sometimes I wan't to breakup the whole command with some notes to get a better understanding !

Tempus v4.2.4 android subsonic client release in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Why is the Tempus logo green on the phone's homescreen but red in the application itself? Is this to differentiate the "degoogled version"?

Btw, thanks for keeping Tempo alive !

Oh yeah I was aware that it won't change from 1080 to 720 :p.

But I thought the movie would just be corrupted an unplayable not lose quality bits !

start to lose quality

Wait... That's a thing? You can lose video quality off a video file on a HD over time?

[Question] Visual feedback of my Linux homelab setup/system? (lemmy.ml)

Hello everyone :)

My Linux learning and Homelab setup is going smoothly and after a long period of stagnation, I'm in a new learning curve :D ! I just learned the magic of hard links and implemented them with bind mounts (yeah hard links only work on the same file system :P) to my Qbittorrent scripting to automagically move them as hard links to a bind mount accessible to Sonarr, Radarr, Jellyfin... and move, rename and do all other things without even touching the original files: PUR MAGIC !

Everything is a file? Naah, everything is a hard link ! (Or inode? xD)

While I'm overjoyed I learned and have a better understanding of files, hard links, soft links, file system, docker, web, all kind of things related to IT... I'm getting kinda overwhelmed of what's happening on my system !!

I have a dozen docker compose on my server, all behind traefik resolved by my piHole DNS on a raspberry pi, some have a custom image made by myself for certificate purpose or some manual changes I added.
I have some .config files in my ~/ to improve my micro experience and make it more integrated over SSH with my Mac and Desktop. If also have some config files in my /root directory for my miniCA for all my service with my personal local domain name and other config files like /etc/bash_aliases and some changes in /etc/bash.bashrc
I have some python .venv for learning and scripting with python
I have a complex and long bash script backup for all my docker containers to back up my volumes, config files and media files separately
Installed some useful and needed packages like resolvconf, wireguard, samba...
I have a few samba shares, all accessible in my LAN with sometimes some exotic configuration for Mac integration
My docker containers have some bind mounts shared volumes

[....]

And now I also have some hard links lying around in the mix ! So I have to say it out loud: I'm OVERWHELMED !

Yes, I do keep some notes in Obsidian and also have a self-hosted Forgejo to keep my notes updated and have some kind of version control of changes in my scripts, but I do feel like I'm not sure anymore what I have... Not to say I didn't mention all the other stuff related to my phone (baikal, ntfy....) or how to keep everything updated (WUD does the trick for containers :)) and tidy...

I guess I'm looking for something magic, something that could In ONE blink give me what's doing what and where? And changes my life for an ever-growing IT space ? Preference something visual...?

I hope to hear from you guys on what I can do to take away this feel of being lost and not being able to fully track my systems and my LAN !

Thank you !
