I've seen them but can't find any in that color.

I deeply miss my glacier blue n64. I keep hoping for a shell for steak deck in that color.

 

I'm looking into getting my own domain to use for email for both my partner and I. I was initially considering using both or first initials followed by our last name (example: ajsmith.tld for Ann and John Smith) but then got to thinking about it and realized that might not be best for privacy. It looks great in a professional setting (like job applications, bills, taxes, etc.), though. So I'm unsure. I'm curios what other privacy concerned people are doing. The main goal is to not have to worry about changing account emails when we change email providers.

Edit: thanks everyone! Lots more replies than I expected and lots of good advice. I ended up going with lastname.tld domain and will combine that with aliases for privacy where needed. I might buy a fun domain later as well but for now this works.

Thanks for the recommendation of retrodeck. I'm going to check that out. It seeks like it's everything I've wanted from emudeck.

Then you should be able to do like I said and it might solve whatever is happening. I also have both homepage and paperless in the same docker-compose file. If you set the container name for each container then you can just reference that in homepage widgets. For example here is my homepage and paperless:

homepage:
    image: ghcr.io/gethomepage/homepage:latest
    container_name: homepage
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
    volumes:
      - /opt/docker/homepage:/app/config
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro # (optional) For docker integrations)

  paperless:
    image: ghcr.io/paperless-ngx/paperless-ngx:latest
    container_name: paperless
    restart: unless-stopped
    depends_on:
      - paperless-redis
      - postgres
    networks:
      - proxy
    user: "1000"
    environment:
      - USERMAP_UID=1000
      - USERMAP_GID=1000
      - TZ=Europe/Berlin
      - PAPERLESS_REDIS=redis://paperless-redis:6379
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_ENABLED=1
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_GOTENBERG_ENDPOINT=http://gotenberg:3000/
      - PAPERLESS_TIKA_ENDPOINT=http://tika:9998/
      - PAPERLESS_DBENGINE=postgresql
      - PAPERLESS_DBHOST=postgres
      - PAPERLESS_DBNAME=paperless
      - PAPERLESS_DBUSER=paperless
      - PAPERLESS_DBPASS=password
    volumes:
      - /opt/docker/paperless/data:/usr/src/paperless/data
      - /opt/docker/paperless/export:/usr/src/paperless/export
      - /opt/docker/paperless/consume:/usr/src/paperless/consume
      - /mnt/paperless:/usr/src/paperless/media

so both have conatiner_name set to the same string as the service name. And in my homepage widgets I just use the container name in the URL, example:

    - Paperless:
        icon: paperless-ngx
        href: https://paperless.local.tld/
        widget:
            type: paperlessngx
            url: http://paperless:8000/
            username: username
            password: password

This only works if they are in the same docker network. If you don't explicitly set the network for the containers and they are in the same compose file then they should be in the same network.

Where is paperless in relation to homepage? For me i have both of them in the same docker host and same docker network on that host and with that i only need to set the paperless container name in the widget. If paperless is on another machine make sure there is no firewall blocking the port number.

The scanner also supports sending to email. I will try that before setting up a windows VM. I was just tubing i would use USB for the initial import of my file cabinet.

[–] silmarine@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago

That's a good idea. I didn't even think to do that. Thanks!

Set up paperless-ngx and cannot get my scanner to send a scan to a FTP server. It supposedly supports sending to FTP but doesn't have much documentation for it. I've tried FTPS, SFTP, and unsecured FTP. Both secure types just cause it to error out. But with unsecured the scanner just freezes then reboots. Really annoying me. I'm about to give up and just scan to s USB thumb drive then copy the scans to the server.

This is what i did. I used to depend on my feed to get major news but decided to do that elsewhere. Now my feed is just stuff that entertains.

I wish i worked at a job that gave me stuff I could use in my home lab. Just once.

[–] silmarine@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 1 month ago

That's cool! I want one.

Despite having not yet participated in these, I'm enjoying it a lot. I try to guess before looking at the comments and got my wife joining in. Please more!

 

I installed EmuDeck on my Steam Deck. I haven't done any custom configs or anything, just using the EmuDeck installed defaults. To run Pokemon SoulSilver it is using the retroarch core melonds. I can load up my saves on the deck, play them, then save a new one no problem. I recently got syncthing running on the deck to sync my saves to other devices. On all my other devices when I start the game (using the same core in retroarch) and press start I get an in game error that seems to be from the core or rom itself, definitely not from retroarch, that reads "A communication error has occurred. You will be returned to the title screen. Please press the A Button."

Is there something EmuDeck changes from the standard RetroArch settings for saves? I've tried to find something that could cause this issue but I cannot find an important seeming setting in the UI that could cause this and I'm starting to lose my mind.

 

I've been setting up and testing prometheus and grafana for about a week now, since that seems to be the universally accepted solution for self-hosted monitoring. But I'm starting to question why it is so accepted. On top of prometheus not seeming useful on it's own (needing grafana to visualize and alertmanager for alerts) it feels like with each thing i want to monitor I have to spin up another docker container to export/gather the data. There are other options like LibreNMS that seems to have all that built into one container. So what does this Prometheus/Grafana stack have that other monitoring services don't? Is it really worth having to set up each of these specialized exporters and dashboards? Or am I mistaken that it's the main solution everyone uses? Are you using something different for monitoring?
