Perfection :D

Zugspitze

Debian Everest, Debian Fuji, Debian Blanc, Debian K2, all great names.

I dint know many OO languages that don’t have a useless toString on string types

Okay, fair enough. Guess I never found about it because I never had to do it... JS also allows for "test string".toString() directly, not sure how it goes in other languages.

The funny thing here is that Microsoft did a very good job in WSL v1 doing the exact opposite. Unlike Windows apps that run all broken under Wine, running GUI app on WSL worked just fine.

Today I found out that this is valid JS:

 `

    
const someString = "test string";
console.log(someString.toString());
`
  

They should've moved to mountains a while ago, before Apple did it. After all a distro as stable as Debian is the only one deserving rock solid stuff.

Why can't we get something like this for the Dreamcast :)

The cameras won’t even pick on DHCP provided NTP. The best way to get around it seems to intercept all NTP traffic from the camera and fwd to the local server.

My issue with tp-link is that their require their app for setup and they lose time once blocked from the internet.

Yeah I get the wife part 😂 I use KeepassXC for password so sync happens over Syncthing for desktop/laptop and WebDAV for mobile. Frigate is something I will eventually get in but first I’ve to decide on a good camera brand that can work 100% offline, right now all signs point at AMCrest but I’m a bit undecided.

+1, I do the same.

by having a simple Nextcloud instance, but I feel nextcloud is overkill for my needs, and if it fails,

I do like to keep things separate as well and Nextcloud is an ongoing source of issues and a piece of shit a software. Since I don't share notes I find WebDAV to be good enough and simple enough not to fail.

My setup is mostly Syncthing, FileBrowser, Baikal, Joplin, FreshRSS, WebDAV (for a bunch of those and as a way to have mobile access to the Syncthing/FileBrowser data. Simple and realiable.

Hmm... besides note sharing what's the advantage of the server over WebDAV? I kina picked WebDAV because I already had the infrastructure in place for other things, and let's face it, it is a piece of cake to get nginx run a WebDAV server.

Yes, you did. "aarch64" and "arm64" are the same thing. AArch64 is the official name for the 64-bit ARM architecture, but some people prefer to call it "ARM64" as a continuation of 32-bit ARM that is also known as "armhf" and "armv7h".

I use Joplin, there's desktop and mobile clients, sync with your own WebDAV server and you've a Kanban plugin. It also does checklists, tables and all the stuff people like. Stores everything in markdown so that's a win.

Yeah, you'll be okay. The easiest way is to pick a generic image for ARM here: https://github.com/home-assistant/operating-system/releases/latest and run with using Incus/LXD or some other virtualization solution that you like. I personally run it on Incus.

You can also do a more barebones manual install in a container if you don't want to run the entire thing. I would still stick with a Incus container or VM to avoid polluting your base system.

Reolink / AMCrest - no internet required, can be setup offline AND have a WebUI that allows full control over all functionality. Check the details of specific models, may vary a bit.

... NO internet required, no apps, nothing. Just a WebUI on a browser.

Too much pieces that can potentially break. I've been looking at http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_auth_request_module.html and there's this https://github.com/kendokan/phpAuthRequest that is way more self contained and simple to maintain long term. The only issue I'm facing with that solution is that I'm yet capable of passing a token / username in a header to the final application.

Okay, I just noticed that I might have mislead you, I forgot to include that I was talking about second hand hardware on eBay or something else. Lot's of companies are getting rid of those machines and they're selling around those price points. Try looking up "Hp mini i5 8th gen" or even 9th gen, sometimes older doesn't mean cheaper, it depends on how much people are trying to dump them.

• TPLink Tapo line - I own those, requires internet / cloud access for setup, then can be viewed by any ONVIF capable software, VLC etc. You can cut their internet access and they mostly work, however timestamps and some features may break randomly;
• Reolink / AMCrest - no internet required, can be setup offline AND have a WebUI that allows full control over all functionality. Check the details of specific models, may vary a bit.

AMCrest is most likely be most offline friendly brand. Here's a testimonial from another user:

I've been using Amcrest and foscam IP cameras at my home for the past several years. I have then connected to a no internet VLAN with an NVR. The models I've been using have an ethernet port and wifi. Setup was connecting to the ethernet port and then accessing the web ui in a browser to configure settings (most importantly turning on RTSP or ONVIF feeds)

Thanks, I’ll have another look.
