Have you tried/are you using Immich?

What kind of attitude?

the source code for freeware is typically not made available

Typically it different than never. It means that sometimes the source code is made available and is the case of FOSS.>

Unlike with free and open-source software, which are also often distributed free of charge, the source code for freeware is typically not made available.

It clearly says "typically", which includes the software that does open source the code.

I've read the first part and it's all "most often", "may be", so, technically, FOSS software is under the freeware umbrella.

Wow, thanks! I couldn't find Andrea Bowman, it shows me some video about criminal cases! 😆

Fossyfy also has an open source SMS app, you can view all of them here.

Thank God I'm European and the privacy laws here are pretty strict, so at least the official channels can't collect and provide our personal data. I've a second SIM card installed in an old smartphone that forward (done with the Tasker app) to my Telegram account all the SMS that it receives and the phone numbers that try to call it and I use that number when is mandatory on a website/service.

It seems pretty extreme to me. Any app needs your consent to access your contacts and if you wanna hide them from Google to (if you've an Android smartphone), you could just download an open source contact app (like Fossify Contacts)

On another note, I received some flack last week for poking fun at the Immich devs for prioritizing the platform's new mascot over a feature I've personally been looking forward to (yes, they were in on it). I had planned to make a formal apology this week until I noticed they dropped another release that again left me feeling neglected as they instead celebrated 60k GitHub stars (is that a lot?).

If you need me before next Friday, I'll be busy making the transition back to Google Photos while enjoying this custom CSS for styling a Flame dashboard to look like the Lumon MDR terminals from Severance

Both these sentence feels very childish to me. First of all, it's an open source software, nobody can pretend anything!
Second, it's clear that, as mentioned by one of the developer, they were joking about it

If he was joking too, I didn't get it.

 

Hi community!
I'm in the process of building a new office PC for:

  • tenths of firefox tabs open some with Microsoft 365 Excel
  • some VMs because I will be installing Debian on the host, but in the office we use some Microsoft software and because, since I install, uninstall, create a lot of mess, I like to be able to go back to old snapshots or format and reinstall Windows without impacting my day to day job.

I'm still undecided about the CPU: AMD 9950x, 9700x or 7950x, but where I' completely blind is the motherboard. What I would like:

  • more than 2 PCIe slots to:
    • install a PCI USB card to pass the whole controller to a VM
    • install an extra NIC
    • I want to be able to install a graphic card in future if needed
  • more than 4 USB-A ports
  • more than 1 USB-C port
  • a well known and reliable brand

Do you have any suggestion even for an SSD (probably 4TB, in the 2-300€ range, maybe even something more) and RAM (64GB)?

Thanks!

 

I want to switch from Windows to Linux for my office PC.
I will be using multiple Windows VM because in the office we use multiple software that runs only on Windows (maybe we'll switch to something else, but right now I need the VMs) and because i like to snapshots and go back in time when I test new software.
I thought about Ubuntu because it seems to be the most user friendly.
I always work with a tons of opened windows (mainly Firefox) and I like to have a place for each of them, Right now on Windows I use DisplayFusion that creates multiple virtual screens (7, 4 or the 32" horizontal monitor and 3 on the 28" vertical one, both 4K), I've attached the configuration.
So, the question: is there a software that works kinda like DisplayFusion? (virtual screen each with it's own taskbar, maximize in each of them, remember the position of each window, ...).

P.s. Can I pass only some USB port to a Windows VM using KVM?
Pp.s. Is it possible to use Premiere on a Windows VM? Would it run smooth?

 

Years ago I came across filecoin/sia decentralized data storage and I started trying them but then I stopped due to lack of time. Some days ago I've heard in a podcast about a kind of NAS that does kinda the same thing: it spreads chunks of data across other devices owned by other users.

Is there a service that does this but with your own hardware or, even better, something open source where you can have X GB as far as you share the same amount of space plus something extra?

It would be great for backup.

 

When I go on vacation I prefer to keep my smartphone with WiFi and mobile data off, but I really don't like the way Spotify handle offline content. Most of the time it doesn't download everything and when I do a research, it show me even content that's not available offline (how can it do that?). Is there a selfhosted service that I can use to download my playlists and play them with an Android app that can download them?

 

I'd like to use my smartphone WiFi SSID to determine if I'm home or not. When I'm home the alarm (kinda, just notifications from some sensors) needs to be shut off and a light needs to be turned on. Since the sensors update can be forced at maximum 1 minute (but I'd prefer to leave it at 15 minutes to preserve battery) and since 1 minute is too much, is there a way to send an intent to HA companion app to send a sensors update? I would use Tasker to send the intent.

 

I've a VLAN dedicated to IoT devices and, of course, HA can't discover them. Is it possible have them discovered by HA via MQTT? Create them manually it's a pita because they're a lot and I would have to create sensors/switches + battery level + RSSI Thanks!

VLAN question (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by peregus@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

I've finally been connected to a fiber connection 2,5/1Gbps! 🥳 Now I want to share my connection with my neighbor and so I've installed 3 PCIx dual 1GB nic (I'm out of PCIe slots 🤷‍♂️).

The connections comes from my OPNsense to the server (Proxmox) via a 10Gbps fiber connection.

I want OPNsense to take car of firewalling dividing the neighbor networks with VLANs. The OPNsense part is done and working, I need to assign to each of the 6 1Gbps NIC each VLAN.

I've tagged the traffic going into the server via the fiber connection, but now how can I assign each VLAN to each NIC? Thanks!

Edit: Proxmox has nothing to do in the equation, it just happens to be on the same server where the NICs are.

 

I have only a PCIe 2.0 x4 and a PCIe 3.0 x16 free and I need to install a 10Gbps SFP+ card and a graphic card for transcoding with Jellyfin (the CPU is an old E5-2620 v2). Since I can't find any SFP+ card that is x4, do you know a graphic card with decent transcoding capabilities (I'd day 2 4K simultaneously) that is only PCIe 2.0 x4?

Edit: the x4 slot is full length.

 

Hi all! Do you know a valid app for GutHub? I've searched on F-Droid, but they are all abandoned. Thanks!

 

My Internet provider just installed a 2,5/1Gbps Internet connection and I've asked the guys to run a couple of their fiber to connect my router (HP Prodesk with OPNsense) to my server. I didn't know that the fiber is single mode and all the SFP+ sold used now seems to be all for multi mode fiber (www.bargainhardware.co.ukfor example). The cable is about 30m, can I use a 810nm SFP+ or is it definitely better to use a 1310nm?

 

Hi everybody! For my OPNsense router (on a VM on Proxmox) I need a 2,5Gbe card (to connect to the ONT of my provider); I only have 2 PCIe 3.0 x1 or 1 x4 because the only x16 is for a dual SFP+ fiber card.

Can you suggest me a NIC (I'd prefer to buy used)? Is it better to go with a 2,5 or 10Gbe? The cooler (temperature!) the better. I just need 1 port, if there are 2 it would be better, but the most important thing is the low operating temperature.

Thanks!

 

My Internet provider just installed me a 2,5Gbps fiber connection. It arrives with a single fiber connected to a GPON ONT (ZTE ZXHN F6005) connected with an RJ45 cable to the 2,5Gbps port of a 5530 Fritz!Box router. I'd like to bypass both the router and the ONT, do you think that it's possible? For the router my provider says that it's possible and it provided me the connection parameters, but for the ONT I've no idea. I would need a singe fiber SC/APC 2,5Gbps SFP+ adapter that I cant seem to find. Can anybody help me? 'm based in Europe.
