I did something similar recently and found it was an easy drop-in situation… so you’ll likely be okay.

I upgraded my CPU on my debian server. Went from i5-4690K and RX 480 to just an i5-12600K.

I could see a potential issue if the WiFi card is different and you’re not hard wired.

Same idea as a gold reserve, which we also have.

Reserved for getting money when it’s needed.

Edit: idk, I’m wrong then

GeoIP restricting is a brilliant idea I never thought of. I have been getting a few people trying to sign up on one of my other services and they’re all from Asia somewhere.

I’ll try setting this up.

I’ve already got wireguard set up and that’s how I access it. I would like the ability to share stuff with people though

Had to look these up:

Archon toilet

Immich/PhotoPrism/whatever you use for image backup. Cloud providers are snooping through your shit.

Plex/Jellyfin for streaming

Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, SABnzbd, qBittorrent to support the streaming service(s)

I’m seriously considering buying a Nokia smart phone to use with LineageOS. I’m a big fan of shitty android phones anyway.

I set up Authentik for some of my services and it works.

The setup really threw me off but I powered through learning it. It’s a strange UI and process.

Basically you set it up with Nginx or Caddy or whatever reverse proxy you use. Your reverse proxy points to Authentik and Authentik takes that link and checks for authorization first. If not authorized, prompt login. If authorized, pass on to the subdomain or whatever it is.

To do all this, you’d need a domain.

Love my Racknerd VPS.

Edit: Some deals here

I think any issues would show in “other”

Just hide it in your OS notification settings

Maybe he meant the red indicator light turns off when it’s unplugged but continues recording until the battery runs out

There used to be a website called exitreviews.com but it redirects to looria.com now, which is an actual company and I can’t tell if there’s bias or not.

It used to be intended for reviewing any product (usually upon failure).

I self-host my own rustdesk server and it’s awesome. It just works flawlessly.

It can be done with adb:

https://r1.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s/how-to-delete-samsung-gallery-and-use-just-google-photos/m-p/7147930/highlight/true#M77865

You can if you use adb shell:

Developer Options > USB debugging turned on CMD prompt > adb devices Allow connection from the PC prompt on phone

Then add shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.sec.android.gallery3d

This will remove Gallery, BUT… The stock camera will not allow you to view the pic after you take it (it will show up in Google Photos still)

To restore the above removed app:

cmd package install-existing com.sec.android.gallery3d

I have a FLIRC remote with the receiver and use it for both my TV and HTPC.

It’s awesome once set up, but the app is honestly dogshit. They put in all these smooth menu transitions and whatnot, making it painfully difficult to configure the remote.

So, once OS updates are unavailable, the machine might become a weak link from security standpoint or stop running some software.

That’s why I specified:

Double check before buying that it can be wiped and you can put Linux on it.

Yep, that’s what I started with. I had a 2014 Toshiba Chromebook with 16 GB storage and 2 GB memory.

It was my lil ssh/vnc machine for the longest time until the battery stopped working. I replaced it with a proper Thinkpad recently.

An old Chromebook sounds perfect.

Looks like most of those are 11.6". Double check before buying that it can be wiped and you can put Linux on it.
