Something's rotten in Denmark in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

You can say the same in Poland. "Za pięć w pół do czwartej."

EU to make Temu, Shein and Amazon liable for 'unsafe' goods, FT reports in c/europe@feddit.org
[–] sodamnfrolic 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There's been talks on Turkey joining, which is mostly outside of Europe, but it's not even close. With Canada it doesn't make much sense, it'll always be closer to US. Maybe something resembling NATO or UN could be introduced, uniting all the still sane countries, but that would be short lived given how hard it is even for UN and NATO to function in the current political climate and rising alt right movements all around Europe - I don't think any country or organization is truly safe from those.

Am I the only one who finds it frustrating how sites seem to be prioritizing mobile users over PC users? in c/casualconversation@lemm.ee
[–] sodamnfrolic 12 points 3 months ago

They don't prioritize mobile users, they prioritize mobile apps - easier to track and gather telemetry, easier to show ads (harder to use adblock), easier to send notifications, you can expect the user to return if they already downloaded an app.

Asking some reasonable questions about Elon Musk's "help" with the Cybertruck bombing case in c/privacy@lemmy.world
[–] sodamnfrolic 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Maybe not Elon himself, but there's been a leak some years ago from Tesla's internal discord or something with engineers sharing photos from the cars external cameras as memes - stuff like the owners walking around in pajamas etc.

Waymo trains its cars to NOT stop at crosswalks in c/fuckcars@lemmy.world
[–] sodamnfrolic 3 points 4 months ago

You might have a say in how to implement the requirement, but in this case, if the company decided to follow societal norms and not laws, it's 100% on the management. You might pin this on devs if they were pressured to release an unfinished product - sometimes the pressure is so big devs are afraid to admit it's not really done, but in this case, it's such a crucial part of the project I think it's one of the first things they worked on.

Realistically, it's more profitable not to stop - customers are impatient, other drivers too, and pedestrians are used to that. To maximize profit, I'd rather risk some tickets than annoy other drivers or customers.

I have been out of the loop for over a decade, where do I begin? in c/piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I recently started paying for debrid services (I use real debrid, but there are others) and couldn't be happier. Got an app called Stremio on my TV and after adding the credentials, everything just works - easy & fast like the streaming services.

It also allows you to download torrents much faster than torrenting them, especially if not many people seed them.

Oh, and if you ever need to download something from Rapidshare or whatever other websites like that it does that too.

Honestly, I should've started paying for it earlier.

Is my 5700x3d overheating at 85c or is it just hot? in c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world
[–] sodamnfrolic 2 points 7 months ago

Yeah, turns out removing front panel drops the temps by 10 degrees... There's a mesh variant, or rather was because it's nowhere to be found. I will ask around or buy more fans and that should do it.

I've got the Honeywell PTM7950 phase changing pad, which from reviews is performing as good as the best thermal pastes. I'd rather not remove it if it's not necessary as it's quite expensive but if I don't figure out another reason I'll try replacing it I guess.

Now that I think of it, there's a simple check for the case fans. I'll try removing the front cover and see if it helps the temps in a meaningful way.

Is my 5700x3d overheating at 85c or is it just hot? (self.pcmasterrace)
 

I recently upgraded my PC from Ryzen 3600 and 3060 Ti to 5700x3d and 4080 Super. It works absolutely great, but I'm worried about the temps. Both my CPU and GPU get to about 85c max, 70-75c avarage running Cyberpunk 2077. I'm a bit worried as people report about 70-75c, not 85...

For cooling-relevant stuff, I've got a Phanteks P400S TG, 3 fans(1x120 in the back, 1x120 and 1x140 in the front) of meh quality, an absolute unit of a CPU cooler - dual tower, two fans, copper base, copper pipes, but from a local & budget (but renowned) manufacturer, the honeywell thermal pad (I know there are fakes, mine looked good but could a fake cause 10-15c temps increase?). Ambient temp is not an issue, it's at most 22c.

I'm running the GPU without any overclock or undervolt and I've applied MSI Kombo Strike 3 to the CPU.

I've got Fan Control running with auto settings, case fans to 100% at 85(either CPU or GPU), GPU to 100% at 85, CPU to 100% at 80.

If the temps are an issue, my best guess is I somehow messed up the thermal pad application, the case fans are not up to the task (especially with how the case restricts airflow from the front and the fans are only about ~1200RPM at 100%) or the GPU is pushing warm air up to the CPU. Any clues if that's an issue and if so, what's the cause?

NAS / NAS + server? Unraid, Proxmox, Intel, AMD? Looking for guidance. in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] sodamnfrolic 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

One of the things I learned as a dev is not to overcomplicate things - my profession is very guilty of this and it bites us in the ass in the end 100% of the time. I'm slowly learning not to do that, thus, Unraid :) thanks for the info.

Do you have any issues with downtime? Are updates troublesome?

NAS / NAS + server? Unraid, Proxmox, Intel, AMD? Looking for guidance. in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] sodamnfrolic 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I only said 3 drives because supposedly it's better than 2, which would mean simple mirroring - I'll cross that bridge when I get to it, shouldn't be hard to get answers there.

Is Cloudflare Tunnels really this problematic? I thought Tunnels and Tailscale would be safe... If I can't expose those services, I'd rather pay for SaaS alternatives.

Thank you for the other tips.

Why do you need both Unraid and TrueNAS? Don't they do the same thing? What's the downside to running TrueNAS on VM in Proxmox VS dedicated machine?

NAS / NAS + server? Unraid, Proxmox, Intel, AMD? Looking for guidance. (self.selfhosted)
 

In a few months, I will have the space and infrastructure to join the selfhost community. I'm trying to prepare, as I know it can be challenging, but I somehow ended up with more questions than answers.

For context, I want to run a server with torrents, media (plex, Jellyfin or something else entirely - I didn't make a decision yet), photos(Emmich, if its stable, or something else), Rook, Paperless, Home Assistant, Frigate, Adguard Home... Possibly lots more. Also, I will need storage - I'm planning for 3x18tb drives to begin with, but will certainly be adding more later.

My initial intention was to set up a NAS in Silverstone CS382(or Jonsbo N3/N5, if they're in a reasonable price). I heard good things about Unraid and it's capabilities of running docker. On the other hand, I'm hearing hood things about Proxmox or NixOS with NAS software running in a VM, too - but for Unraid, it seems hacky. Maybe I should run NAS and a separate server? That'd be more costly and seems like more work on maintenance with no real benefit. Maybe I should go with TrueNAS in a VM? If I don't do anything other than NAS, TrueNAS shouldn't be that hard to set up, right?

I'm also wondering whether I should go with Intel for QuickSync, AMD and Arc graphics or something else entirely. I've read that AV1 is getting popular, is AMD getting more support there? I will buy Intel if it's clearly the better option, but I'm team Red and would prefer AMD.

Also, could anyone with a non-technical SO tell me how do they find your selhosted things? I've read about Cloudflare Tunnels and Tailscale, which will be a breeze for me, but I gotta think about other users aswell.

That's another concern for me - am I correct in thinking Tailscale and Cloudflare Tunnels are all I need to access the server remotely? I will probably set up a PiKVM or the Risc one aswell, can it be exposed aswell? I will have a dream machine from Ubiqiti, anything that needs to run to access the server I may run there. I'm not looking to set up anything more complicated like Wireguard - it's too much.

For additional context, I'm a software developer, I know my way with Docker and the command line and I consider myself to be tech savvy, but I'm not looking to spend every weekend reading changelogs and doing manual updates. I want to have an upgrade path (that's why Im not going with Synology for example), but I also don't want to obsess over it. Money isn't much of an issue, I can spare 1-2k$ on the build, not including the drives.

Any feedback and suggestions appreciated :)
