Yes. SD cards are particularly prone to corruption with a fluctuating power supply.

Also the transfer speed is much higher on the USB bus. And the access time lower.

It either hurts or it doesn’t. There’s no warning.

Beyond always back up everything, Pi’s and SD cards have always been a bummer. Even booting from an old memory stick is faster and more reliable.

Pi’s have supported foregoing the SD card and booting from USB since forever. I run a file server on a Pi5 with a USB SSD disk as main drive, never had any issues. Even bad blocks from wear are compensated for through the SSD’s built in system.

Looking at that is doing my head in, like that Steve Buscemi picture where there’s double of everything on his face.

Fedi doesn’t support secure communication, that’s why (the last time I dove into the subject) lemmy has a profile field for yer Matrix account. Encrypted communication. Mails are usually hosted on “reputable” services and has some sort of privacy agreement, something I’ve yet to see on a fedi site.

And if you think of lemmy or mastodon as a communication service rather than a publishing platform, you’re probably being spied on more than you expect.

Fedi logins would require an account backend, which is quite a way aways from the fediverse as far as I know. Not to mention it would require a stable, permanent fedi provider with absolute trust.

For a simple e-mail server you could use a server management suite like YunoHost, comes with a working mail server right out of the box. For only recieving registration mails and notification you wouldn’t even have to mess with online spam filters due to not being GAFAM.

Someone mentioned UnifiedPUSH, which is nice but has very limited platform support at the moment as it has to be added to every single site and app. As far as I know it also sends notifications only using transport encryption so the server admin would have access to your notifications. Better to self-host, best to self-host at home on your own hardware.

Wallabag has the same RSS features and can export to several formats, epub included, but the annotation system is only supported in the web interface. Even the official android app doesn’t support it. No Wallabag client on any platform supports self signed certs so forget about anything but web UI if you run it on a closed LAN.

Because according to the devs it’s more secure to run a public facing server with a CA backed cert that on a closed LAN which I VPN into with a self-signed cert. Even a toggle to allow it is too dangerous.

You post this under “Humor” but it’s clearly madness.

3000 is the OpenWebUI port, never got it to work by using either 127.0.0.1 or localhost, only 0.0.0.0. Ollama’s port 11434 on 127.x worked fine though.

you don’t want to be punching a tunnel from whatever can talk to your portable device to the LLM machine.

Fair point.

Just do like me - Install Ollama and OpenWebUI, install Termux on Android, connect through Termux with port forwarding.

ssh -L 0.0.0.0:3000:ServerIP_OnLAN:3000

And access OpenWebUI at http://127.0.0.1:3000/ on your phone browser. Or SSH forward the Ollama port to use the Ollama Android app. This requires you to be on the same LAN as the server. If you port forward SSH through your router, you can access it remotely through your public IP (If so, I’d recommend only allowing login through certs or have a rate limiter for SSH login attempts.

The shell command will then be ssh -L 0.0.0.0:3000:YourPublicIP:3000

But what are the chances that you run the LLM on a Linux machine and use an android to connect, like me, and not a windows machine and use an iPhone? You tell me. No specs posted…

Your apologies? You made a mistake? You tried to convince me grass is blue for 45 minutes, that’s not a mistake that’s straight up psychological manipulation!

YunoHost is also a good management system, though more focused on web services compared to DietPi which seems more… Everything.

Syncthing is great for syncing files and that’s about it. No groupware, sharing, off-site storage and so on. I ran Syncthing+DecSync for years for great groupware sync but it’s completely deprecated. I’m back on Nextcloud, though still use ST for syncing program files.

Have you considered NextcloudPi? Installs a full, SSL-ready (self-generated or LetsEncrypt) Nextcloud instance with a single copy-paste command in terminal/via SSH.

There are so many things I would like them to fix before they add more half-baked stuff.

I just don’t believe anything about this case either way.

I spend 90 minutes online before I even get out of the bed.

I once saw a grave digger with both feet in the grave but he was resurrected to the surface by the shovel of one of them mini caterpillar diggers.

NC have modules for both gPodder sync and RSS. The RSS reader has been refactoring for ages so I just run FreshRSS instead but the NC module should work just fine.

Interesting but unfortunate. But they didn’t set their alarm to go to the toilet, where did all that liquid go? Is it true that it’s stored in the balls?
