I don't have easy access to my torrent client at the moment, how much disk space are we talking about here? Tens of GB, hundreds, multiple TB?

Edit: ooft, that's a hefty chunk of space indeed, the first one I looked at was 400gb, the second was >4tb. Sadly I can't contribute that kind of space on my torrent box.

I was going to say that the big downside to that would be a lack of any kind of version control, but I guess if you need that you can always use git and just commit changes there and (optionally) push them to a repository somewhere.

Interesting, I'll try again from my desktop when I get back home again. I guess it's possible that it's my phone that's the problem.

Ah, I see, then my apologies for making assumptions. If you're a Usenet person then things like drunken slug or Ninja central assist to have a bunch of adult content on them.

For torrents, you'll hopefully be able to find content on various generalist torrent trackers or a few specialist ones that primarily deal with that kind of content.

I get the impression that you're new to the whole *arr set of applications.

Your indexer is the torrent site (or Usenet indexer) you're asking whisparr to search through for your torrents/NZBs.

Take a look here for some pretty good documentation on how it all works: https://wiki.servarr.com/whisparr/quick-start-guide#indexers

I'm not so sure about that, as I'm getting an error whenever I try to hook jacket up to the account I just created.

I'll post an issue to the jacket issue log when I get home though after trying again I case there's a delay in creating an account and the passkey becoming usable.

I think it's a relatively recent thing. As the documentation for each of the *arts has a relatively recent minimum version number I think.

Here's where I went when looking for whisparr, but just replace that with the arr you're wanting to use and it'll give you decent steps for getting your database created and migrated into it: https://wiki.servarr.com/whisparr/postgres-setup

I chose to take down my production instance of lemmyz do a cp -r of it, update the docker compose file to specify the new version numbers for Lemmy and lemmy-ui plus change the port that the stack exposes and do a docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d on that stack to check to see if it could all work. Thankfully it did, so I updated the production compose file and tada! I'm on 19.0 safely

I'm in this camp as well. I've had one motion sensor of theirs since June that supplemented an IKEA one to catch movement at a different part of my hallway and had no real problems with it. I ordered another couple recently as well and put one in my kitchen and another in my office.

I might have been seeing odd behaviour on my office one but I've not had time to investigate it though and I was more inclined to believe it was bad positioning than a faulty sensor.

I did notice though that if I enter the room just as the lights are turning off then the lights don't turn back on but I just go straight to the light switch and do a quick turn off and back on again job to fix it.

Answer the call 2016!

I'll believe it when I see it.

Ooo, I'll add that to one of my planka boards for "things to look at later" thanks for sharing

I've been using planka and have been quite happy with my experiences for the last couple of months.

I've not tried this myself, but how about mounting the volume using sshfs?

This is of course assuming that you've got ssh access to the VPS.

I'm currently mounting volumes using cifs and NFS, but I don't think I'd be too keen on exposing those to the internet at large.

Magic, thanks for posting this. I've been trying to find a good and clear explanation of that been going on since I started reading about people getting upset with unity during the week.

Fair points well made. I thought the 11th was a Wednesday and I've been off on holiday for a week or so, so brain no worky so good just now.

I'll l go back under my lurking rock again.

I find it quite interesting that Ubisoft Montreal chose the same day as my employer to enforce 2 days in the office every week.

I'll accept that there is a 1 in 356.25 chance that any employer will pick a specific day to enforce a return to office, but it does seem interesting that there would be 2 employers in different countries picking the same day. Is there something special about that day that makes it a special day to change where and how people work? (I know that there were events on 2001 that took place on this day, but that doesn't seem too likely a reason to pick that particular day to enact this change)

That's interesting, because I was finding guides for traefik and caddy but not nginx (specifically swag in my case)

The issue I was having, in case it helps you, is that I was trying to expose 8448 on my synapse container which doesn't have SSL instead of on my SWAG container and then redirect to my synapse one.

An alternative to torrenting though is Usenet. It takes a bit of setting up but there are some nice advantages. No worrying about needing to seed back and you're not going to need to worry about a VPN or your ISP forwarding on threatening letters. Sure it costs money, but I think I pay about £45 per year and I don't regret that one little bit.

I personally use gitea but there is also a community version of gitlab that has way more power than I need.

Gitea can import a repo from GitHub but I don't know whether it can also push updates out as one never tried to do that.

I picked gitea as I didn't need all of the extra power of gitlab and they were the first two options I found. I don't deploy it using portainer but all of my stacks are set up as git repos in portainer and using the webhook feature it'll auto pull and redeploy whenever I push to it

Just took a look at my profile, registered on 27 June 2006. So it's in my 15-20 year window that I mentioned
