Broke federation, kickstarting it from world (I think)

Hello! I'm working on my home server trying to get some networking problems solved, and out of nowhere my nginx is suddenly being hit from this instance tens of times per second. I'm at several thousand lines in just 10 minutes. I'm still new to networking stuff, trying to learn what I can. Is this normal?!

Edit: For some background, I used to roll my own instance, but as I wasn't very comfortable yet with network security and all that I pulled it down. This was maybe a year and a half ago. I get lots of lemmy instances looking to check in, since they think my instance still exists, but this is a bit much...

Edit 2 to fix the photo

Edit 3: I'm reading that returning 410 Gone should tell the instance that mine is permanently gone, so I'm going to set that up in nginx. According to pull #5256, since I'm returning a 4xx error more than 3 days it should have already stopped.

Update: programming.dev seems to be respecting the 410 pretty quick! I installed Grafana to finally see some network stats, and hopefully lemmy.world and .ml will respect it as well in the next couple days (Stats started recording when the container went live, and .dev stopped pretty quick afterwards)

Over the last few years I've gone through a couple Logitech MX Verticals. My current one does technically work, but just like the last one the cheap rubber coating has started disintegrating and is pretty nasty at this point.

Anyone have good recs for a vertical mouse that won't start crumbling like a dry cake in my hand? I'm not picky on buttons or anything, just work with a bunch of spreadsheets at work. The vertical mouse is just much better for my wrist.

Hello mechanics!

I've got some coils and spark plugs that need replacing (Along with likely needing to send my ECM in for a repair). I've verified that they're the likely culprit of many of my issues with my local mechanic, but wanted to verify with more internet experts on what to buy.

From what I understand, Motorcraft is the recommended OEM, and I've no problem spending the money if that is the right direction, but I wanted to see if any of these "Premium" alternatives on RockAuto would be a good or better choice, such as the Hitachi with "Magnetic Shield for EMI Protection" (A common cause for ECM damage in this make/model apparently).

Thanks in advance!

Update with solution at the end

Hi all! If there's a better community for these questions I can post over there instead.

I'm not new to linux in general, but I am new to gaming on linux. I finally ditched Windows and installed Debian 12. I've got propriety Nvidia drivers installed, Steam's installed and I've only checked one other game so far (Palworld, working flawlessly).

Monster Hunter Wilds is just giving me a headache and I'm not quite sure how to troubleshoot it, whether it's something on my side (most likely) or something else. I can get the game to start using Proton Experimental (bleeding edge), it does it's graphics/shader thing, gets past the branding, and then freezes on the "Initializing Network" screen.

I've looked through through the ProtonDB and tried various launch options that were recommended, but still with no luck. I'm actually locked out for 24 hours because Denuvo sees switching Proton versions as trying to reinstall on multiple machines, so any potential solutions will have to be tested once that lock resets.

Happy to provide anything needed, logs or whatnot. Might just need to be pointed in the right direction to find those.

System Info:

• Debian 12 (bookworm)
• Kernel: 6.1.0-32-amd64
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
• RAM: 32GB
• GPU: RTX 3060 Ti
• GPU Driver: 535.216.01

Edit: Finally got things working! Turns out that the Debian repositories don't have up to date drivers, didn't realize that going in. Fully removing Nvidia drivers and manually installing the latest version from Nvidia (Following this guide) has me playing again! There's a few visual glitches that I need to see if I can get fixed with some mods, but if anyone is having similar issues then it may be a driver error!

Hi all! I've been scratching my head for a while now trying to get this figured out. I've got Klipper installed on my Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro, and I've never had perfect bed meshes. The back left is still too close, the back right is still too far.

The images show the difference between the corners (My Z-Offset was too close on this run so it's squishing too much all over, but the difference is still visible).

I recently installed kyleisah's Adaptive Meshing & Purging in hopes of this being a better solution, and I've put my tension up to 0.5, but have gotten marginal improvements. I've also attached my printer.cfg. The Bed Mesh values at the bottom can be ignored, since the adaptive meshing gets a new mesh every print.

I'm working on 3D printing the Kubic case, but would like some guidance on hardware to buy for it.

I currently have an old laptop running some Docker containers, including the .arr stack and Plex, plus Immich for photo backups, and a few other odds and ends. Don't want to break the bank, but I'm looking for something to at least handle transcoding video for Plex.

Needs:

• ITX Motherboard
• Discreet GPU (Max 210mm long, 2 slots thick (max 41mm))
• SFX Power Supply
• 140mm chassis fan (Max 30mm thick)

Thanks in advance!

Hello fellow self-hosters,

I'm fairly new to hosting my own services and have been learning as I go, but have run into an issue and am not sure where to look for answers. Hoping you all can help a confused soul out.

Up until now, I've been running the .arr services (Sonarr, Radarr, Overseerr, etc.) on my Windows machine with minimal issue, but I've been working on setting up a separate Debian machine to get it off my main PC.

I'm following this guide to get everything setup, and at this point I have all my services setup and running, but I can't seem to get Radarr and Sonarr to work correctly. My indexers work, Radarr will grab the wanted file and Deluge will download it, but when the download finishes it just stays in limbo; Radarr is unable to import it into the library due to invalid permissions (It doesn't have Write permissions).

I've done sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/ROOT/directory and sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/HDDSTORAGE/directory as the guide instructs under 'Folder Structure' (of course replacing the paths with my actual paths), but to no avail.

Where I think the problem is is my actual Media Library. All the services are running on their own laptop, but my 10TB HDD is still in my main Windows PC. Until I build a new rig specifically for the server, I can't put the HDD into the laptop. In Windows, the TV and Movie folders are network shared and I have them mounted on my server in the respective locations where Radarr and Sonarr should be looking. At this point, the .arr services can definitely read the mounted directories, but can't make new ones for new shows and movies.

My wife's birthday is coming up and she is HUGE into the Sonic franchise, but doesn't have much in the way of collectibles or memorabilia.

What would a Sonic fan who's played the games, read the comics, knows the lore, etc. LOVE to get as a gift? I'm thinking rare collectible type stuff. Likely something I'll need to get off eBay.

Anyone have any solutions for this issue? You'd think it would just bridge over the entire hole, don't know why it's doing this. We're at 195mm height here and I'd rather not run a support the entire height of the model just for this little nub.

Using version 2.6.1

Hello fellow printers!

I've decided to be ambitious and upgrade my printer's hotend. I followed this guide to convert my printer to a direct drive. I bought this NEMA14 motor per the instructions, but the instructions didn't specify how to wire it up to the stock Neptune 2S board. I just swapped it where the old extruder was and got everything assembled.

Started trying to tune it (Using Klipper), and things just got weird. I read that the motors can heat up while active, but this motor is getting HOT! Hot enough that it can melt PLA that's pressed up to the motor's body. Only takes a few minutes to get there, definitely can't print for long with it.

What are my next troubleshooting steps? I definitely don't want to burn my house down and will go back to my original bowden setup if needed, but I'd love to be direct drive.

Edit: Of course after I post this I finally find what's wrong. Need to tune VREF as well. I've ordered some ceramic screwdrivers to prevent accidentally frying my board and will be learning something new this weekend! Leaving this question here in case someone else needs the answer. Using this guide to tune VREF

Updated to the latest update and the app crashes immediately. Can't get to any settings, no errors are thrown. I've had to downgrade to v23.08.31.

Anyone else having problems? I can post my device info if someone could tell me how to get that.

Edit: Device info added. Also, I do have an Ultra subscription but can't restore the purchase. That's probably since I downloaded the earlier version from APKPure.

Took a couple failed prints to figure out something was wrong. Pulled the filament and saw it was melted WAY too high! Thankfully I've got a pack of spares, so pretty simple to swap out.

Now I need to learn how to play it...
