Yeah I was more referring to huge outliers, like the 4? 6? Tb seagates they had a few years ago that were like 25% Afr.

You talking modern stuff, or are we talking 90s Tiger Electronics games here?
Docker is probably the simplest way to get a working deployment, since there’s a lot of moving pieces in a Nextcloud install.
Though, it’s not going to automatically update itself unless you’ve made a poor choice for a production environment configuration, which sounds like what happened here.
(Even using a latest tag isn’t really a problem until/unless you re-pull the image to do the upgrade. And/or have configured something to automatically update your shit, but again, don’t do that in production.)
Nextcloud is also annoying in that updating the base won’t pull all the apps to a current version, so you have to know what’s going to break before you update the base so you can then update the apps as needed. Which, again, can’t just be left up to automatic updates.
I’d like to second the ‘manufacturer doesn’t matter, all drives are going to fail’ line, but specific models from manufacturers will have a much higher failure rate than others.
Backblaze, for example, publishes quarterly(ish?) stats showing the drives with the highest failure rates in terms of percentages, so you can kind of get a good view on if there’s a specific drive model you should maybe avoid.
Or just buy an actual enterprise drive, avoid SMR, and have backups is also a sane approach.
Make sure you come back and update me when you try it, and then find out that the cables are all stapled to the studs.
That’s always extra fun to discover once you start running cabling.
Though, if you have good coax everywhere, MOCA is a legitimate option you should be considering, as it’ll do gigabit (more than, even) and the adapters aren’t particularly expensive compared to dealing with having to pull cabling through everywhere.
I’ve never liked web UIs that have that level of permissions to screw around with the OS it’s hosted on.
Maybe that’s just some grumpy greybeard thing, but I’d really rather not have a single management plane that has full access to EVERYTHING, since that just feels like you’re one configuration oopsie away from some guy in Albania (<3 you, Albania) uploading all his hentai to your server and then trying to hack the FBI or some shit. (Or, you know, the much more boring oops-i’m-a-zombie-now outcome.)
Speed running Wii Sports?
Huh.
(I have probably 50 copies because I kept ending up with more and more due to buying game lots at estate sales and garage sales and such.)
Wii games worth something?
Maybe I’ll be able to retire on my collection of Wii Sports disks.
Yeah I ran ethernet everywhere when I bought my house and it’s fantastic. Multi-gig everywhere!
I’m also never fucking doing that again because the builder of my house must have gotten a fantastic fucking deal 120 years ago on 2x4s, because they decided to do a narrow cross-bracing between studs on every damn wall, so I had fucking rock-hard old growth 2x4s to drill through every 14 inches or so in every damn wall I was running cables on.
Killed several hundred dollars in drill bits and other tools (broke a few fish tapes!) getting this shit done, AND it took like a month to get finished and then the walls patched where I had to cut into it to see what in the fuck the drill was hitting.
But yeah, ethernet everywhere is great!
I can only be friends with people who use Arch (btw).
Yeah, I’ve never seen a multi-bay enclosure that doesn’t just randomly decide it’s done with this bullshit and have random dropouts or just plain fucking off entirely.
I don’t know WHY they’re so bad, but they are :/
I just converted part of a closet to a network closet and added some shelves and stuffed everything in there, though I know that’s not an option everyone has.
Should ask what platform here, IMO: virt-manager is Linux-only. (Or, I suppose, doing remote X stuff to run it elsewhere but that’s probably not what OP is after.)
There’s some command line stuff you can run on Windows, but then at that point, you can just use virsh on the host itself.
I’m of the opinion that virsh to manage and then a spice or vnc client to access the VMs is the “best” way to go so you’re not tied down to having to have a specific OS running a specific tool in order to do any admin stuff, since I mean, after you deploy how often are you screwing with the VM settings?
IME, they’re all the same chipset/set of chipsets and are all pretty awful.
That said, the most reliable ones I’ve found actually come from drives that have been shucked. Western Digital or whomever aren’t going to do the absolute lowest price piece of shit enclosure for something they’re going to warranty for 3 or 5 years, so those have been what I try to find and have had reasonable luck with them in terms of reliability and not-catching-shit-on-fire.
Usually cheap as shit on eBay or whatever, since they’re basically the packaging trash around something that was purchased for the gooey insides.
Have you been to a theater recently? You only wish it was silent.
Idk when it started but its fine to talk through the whole movie or fuck with your phone volume turned on now.
Either is fine: the question is what happens when something breaks and if you care about issues and such.
If your docker host depends on the pihole it’s running, there can be some weirditry if it’s not available during boot and whatnot (or if it crashes, etc.).
…I ended up with a docker container of pihole and an actual pi as the secondary so that it’s nice and redundant.
off-brand Super Soakers until they get frustrated
I’m now imagining the leaders of the Andromeda Initiative shopping for guns at the Citadel branch of Temu, which is Commander Shepherd’s least favorite store.
Yeah, I tried to use music and audiobooks in Jellyfin and even with apps focused on that it was just… rough.
Pity, since I’d love to have been able to scope down how much shit I’m running, but alas, that’s not going to be the way to do it.
It looks like it supports the getSimilarSongs API endpoint, which means if your client has support then navidrome can kinda do it.
As to what clients support that, uh, no freaking idea lol, but probably googleable from that point.
(I’m a grumpy old boomer and listen to whole albums or curated playlists, so never really looked into if you could do that or not.)
I know you’ve mentioned it, but Navidrome is probably the best choice, but it won’t be exactly what you want since you need to interact with a proprietary service.
But, that said, I’ve gone through basically every single music server I’ve found and ended up landing on none of them.
They’re all broken or missing features that another one has, and there’s no One True Music Streaming Server, just a bunch of mostly-kinda-sorta-almosts.
At this point, I just use a network mapped directory and/or a synced copy on the sd card of my phone and local players and don’t bother with anything more complex anymore.
The local players that can play media seem to have a much better, richer feature set than ANY streaming one does.
He announced on GitHub somewhere that he’s wanting to push out the next major version of UptimeKuma first, then come back and work on dockge.
So it’s not abandoned, but it’s just a second priority.
