Small victory, I finally have more followers on pixelfed than Instagram.

Don't really have many people to celebrate this with. Thought y'all would appreciate it.

I've always been frustrated about film scanning being locked behind a paywall or generic AI slop. I've tried to make this as system agnostic as I can. Please give me feedback so that I can improve this article. Thanks in advance!

I wanted to see if anyone has any questions about my hobby and to also kill time.

Hi, I'm trying to pass an HD770 from a i5-14600K to a jellyfin container that's on Open Media Vault. I keep thinking I have the correct firmware downloaded but I guess that's not the case.

The GPU is fully passed through via Proxmox.

Hypervisor: 6.14.5-1-bpo12-pve

OpenMediaVault: 6.12.32+bpo-amd64

I'm at a loss and pulling my hair out.

So back a few years ago the SK hynix Gold P31 was the GOAT for laptops due to the low idle wattages and low usage wattages. This allowed you to squeeze about 10% extra battery life out of your laptop.

Is that still considered the best M.2 drives for laptops in terms of power usage?

Just exposed Immich via a remote and reverse proxy using Caddy and tailscale tunnel. I'm securing Immich using OAuth.

I don't have very nerdy friends so not many people appreciate this.

I just learned how to do a reverse proxy using Caddy, tailscale tunnel, and exposing Immich secured by OAuth all in a few hours. Now I'm no longer scared of exposing certain services to the Internet!

Greetings fellow enthusiasts.

I'm going to rebuild my proxmox server and would like to have a few opinions.

First thing is I use my server as a NAS and then run VMs off that.

I have 2 x 20tb in ZFS mirror but I'm planning on changing that to 3 x 24tb in ZFS1.

I currently have a ZFS pool in proxmox and then add that pool to Open Media Vault.

Issue is, if my OMV breaks and I'll have to create another VM, I'm pretty sure all that data would become inaccessible to my OMV.

I've heard of people creating a NFS in proxmox and then passing it through to OMV?

Or should I get HMB cards and then just pass it through the VM and then just run it natively within OMV. I'd need to install the ZFS kernal into OMV as well.

Would like to hear some options and tips.

Is there a FOSS program where I can inventory my high value items in case there is an insurance claim?

I was thinking of the item, the picture of the item and serial number, maybe the UPC, and then an attachment of the receipt.

I'm guessing some kind of database that integrates file attachments per item.
