Seconding the request for details - how do you know?


Idk, I definitely remember initial articles only saying “Democrats caved!” And I had to dig around to find out who, and had to dig around more to find out what was agreed to.


I wonder if Obamacare folks would’ve paid their first payment for 2025 by then? There may be value in letting folks see sticker shock, as it gives a clear “this is what we’re fighting for” signal


But in a major concession for Democrats, the deal does not include an extension of enhanced subsidies under Obamacare, or the Affordable Care Act, after Republicans held firm against extending those funds beyond this year. That means more than 20 million Americans could see their premiums spike next year.


The next “deal” will be struck in January when federal funding runs out, when we have another Democrat sworn into the house, when snap benefits are not at risk for another 8 months.
I’m also disappointed in this, but its worth pointing out that they may be setting up for a later fight which doesn’t come at the cost of starving our poorest citizens, which the trump administration has shown the nation they’re gleeful to do.


Given the need for a dash cam to be reliable, this is one place where I’d suggest considering a typical commercial offering over a cobbled together self hosted solution.
EDIT: I misunderstood - i thought you were planning to use your phone as a dash cam but instead you’re just wondering about getting the data off a commercial dash cam!


What does budget friendly mean to you?


I was looking into team speak and found this video that captures someone else’s experience.
Tldw; lots of super neat features, some clunky interfaces that maybe highlight how used to discord we’ve gotten


So you’re fine with “find me more votes” trump asking for conservatives to redraw maps out of cycle, for the explicit reason to materialize out of thin air an advantage for the next election?
I’m not. There’s a reason why this is expected to give the exact number of seats as the new map of Texas.


It’s like a 5 year old mimicking his idiot dad. Would be adorable if it weren’t real.


You know how your favorite show got pulled by Netflix, and you can’t find it without subscribing to another service?
I self host to take control of that back.
Damn, they’re going to stop feeding folks so they can feed folks in case if emergency. Some genius brain shit right there.
Oh the trump administration is 100% hoping people revolt - they’re already discussing invoking the insurrection act


For frigate, you don’t need to have object detection on, if you’ll know what times to look for for footage. You can also just use the CPU for object detection, but ymmv based on performance. FWIW the coral tpu I use for detection cost like $50.
Do you understand why folks are upset though?
I have not had to look at the code for any other self-hosted application when considering whether or not to use it. You can say that this is a self-levied requirement due to the suspicions of vibe-coding, and I’d fully agree.
I took a quick peek at your github profile, and you’ve been working on FOSS stuff before LLMs were a thing (thank you!), suggesting that you are more likely to actually know what you’re doing. However when you say you vibe-coded up an application, you’ve placed yourself in the same bucket as the vibe-coder who’s ai agent deleted a database despite being instructed that there was a code freeze. Yes, it was a developing product, and not prod, but yeah you’ve advertised that you use the same tools and techniques as this guy, which does not inspire confidence.
Am I correct that a few of you are mad that I included dockerfiles and docker compose examples in the repo? Where did I go wrong?
No, we’re not upset about docker. Did you read the majority of my last comment?
Correct. Saying you “vibe-coded” something up suggests that you didn’t do it yourself, or at least was only loosely invested in it. If you didn’t put much time into it, then it’s not as vetted for folks. Running your code on someones homelab is then akin to pushing the new grads vibe-coded refactor into prod, which I think we all know is a bad idea. The mitigation for that is for the user to vet the code themselves, which we already asserted earlier doesn’t really happen in practice. So we have two options, either push the vibe-coded refactor into prod, or acknowledge that we’ve introduced an additional requirement onto the users to vet the code themselves. Both are not ideal. I’m proposing that it is that friction that you’ve introduced that folks are upset about. The docker issue was just brought up as an example of what could go bad by running poorly vetted code on a machine.
Personally, whether or not this will be maintained in the future is the biggest reason why I’m unlikely to try this. If the main developer vibe-coded it up, then in my book there’s a lower chance that the codebase will be maintained in the future.
If your response to “How will you maintain this?” is “nothing is owed”, it really cements the idea that this will not be maintained.
If an application is unlikely to be maintained in the future, then the risk-reward ratio will rarely justify me incorporating it into my workflow.
When you run a self-hosted application, do you first go through and read all the code? I don’t, I’ll tell you that. I’m going to assert that most folks don’t, and unless I hear otherwise I’ll assume you don’t read all the code for every self-hosted application you use.
No one is complaining about Docker, they’re complaining about AI

Also idk where you heard Docker is like giving root
If I’m not looking through all the code, then as a user I’ll just be following your included instructions, of which the recommended method is to fire up docker-compose. If docker-compose bind mounted mounted /, my understanding is that the container now has default write-access to the entire host - am I mistaken?
I appreciate the spirit, but to shine some more light around the negativity you’re seeing in the comments, it’s a lot to ask for others to run your code on their machines. If you want folks to be running in docker, that’s oftentimes basically giving root access.
If I’m giving root access, I’d at least want for the person who wrote the code to have a thorough understanding of what the code, which once again is running as root on my home network, is doing.
The LastPass hack a few years back was enabled by a self-hoster running an outdated version of Plex on their personal machine. There is weight in choosing what software to run and support in your personal setup. The negativity you’re seeing is due to the belief that vibe coding, while able to produce something functional, is not reflective of solid, sustainable, and secure software development practices, and simply does not meet the bar for code to give root access to. It’s (probably) not personal.
But at least they’re paid
