I was excited for the Roborock map. Unfortunately it isn't live and doesn't appear to be interactive. A good step in the right direction, though!

I have been using this alongside MyFitnessPal and it is great! I look forward to getting rid of MFP so my data is mine.

The dev is responsive and quick to fix bugs and implement features, too. Thanks @[email protected]!

Not sure if it is open source, but I switched to ReoLink a while back and have been very happy with it. Good Home Assistant integration, no subscription, and everything can be local (store video clips to an onboard SD Card).

I second Paperless NGX. I have been using it for a few years, and it has been working great!

I am seeding sets 1-8, 10-12, and the larger set 9. Seedbox is outside the US and has a very fast connection.

I will keep an eye on this post for other sets. 👍

I have been using various Debian-flavored Linux variets for several years in both desktop and server.

Recently I got a System76 laptop for work because they are food quality, repairable, and mostly "just work". The main issue I have run into is Cisco Secure Client (formerly AnyConnect) simply breaks in Ubuntu/PoP. If I do get it to install by ignoring Cisco's shitty instructions, it either won't route traffic once connected or corrupt itself attempting to auto-update.

It is purely a Cisco issue because they don't put much effort into their Linux VPN software. Other VPNs not only work easily, but can also integrate into PoP Cosmic. Cisco and their restrictive nature just make the process impossible.

Heck, you can't even download their VPN software without a Cisco contract. So if my company doesn't provide the correct version or distro package, there is no way for me to get it. Since most people on the helpdesk don't know anything about Linux, they simply provide the generic Linux.tar.gz file instead of the DEB or RPM files.

I gave up and installed Windows on a second NVMe.

I will save this one for work!

Definitely looks like a storage array. Based on how the drives look, maybe an EMC Clariion (CX or CX3 model)?

I have been seeding all of the datasets since Sunday. The copy of set 9 has been the busiest, with set 10 a distant second. I plan on seeding them for quite a while yet, and also picking up a consolidated torrent when that becomes available. Hopefully you are able to get connected via the Swarm.

Each network is different. I did this for my network which has multiple subnets and internal DNS servers sitting on the "server" subnet. The "server" subnet is excluded, since devices in there are more tightly controlled (and it would create a routing loop).

Granted, it may not be the best way, but here is how I did it:

• Create Firewall Alias group (type: hosts) with IP addresses of internal DNS servers (PiHoles, in my case).
• Create Firewall Alis group (type: URL Table IPs) for external DNS over HTTPs servers (content: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jpgpi250/piholemanual/master/DOHipv4.txt)
• Create NAT Port Forward to route all traffic on port 53 to the alias (TCP/UDP, source: network, destination: !network on port 53, redirect target: DNS alias, redirect port: 53) for each network
• Each network (except the "server" network) has the below rule set (order is important)
  • Allow TCP/UDP 53 to DNS alias
  • Drop all TCP/UDP 53
  • Drop all TCP/UDP 853
  • Drop all TCP/UDP 443 traffic to external DNS over HTTPs alias group

Since NAT port forward rules are processed before interface/network rules, any device using port 53 for DNS (regardless of the IP address they have set) will automatically (and transparently) get redirected to my PiHole servers. The drops are in place so devices that try to use other common DNS methods are blocked. Generally, those devices will then default to the DHCP DNS servers.

I have been running this config for a few years and have found a few downsides:

• You can't visit websites that have the same addresses as their DNS hosts, ie: https://1.1.1.1
• Although https://github.com/jpgpi250/piholemanual is updated regularly, it has contained the odd false-positive (GitHub pages had a weird overlap at one point) breaking legitimate HTTPS traffic
• My PiHole servers are configured to allow queries from all origins (theoretical security risk)

Hope this helps! And remember to be careful when messing with DNS and clear those caches when testing.

I don't see this posted here yet. Below is the Github repo link for an index of torrent files, DOJ links, and mirrors, for every dataset. https://github.com/yung-megafone/Epstein-Files

I am a Plex guy and host Jellyfin along with other various services that aim to de-Google my family members and friends.

I give out Plex access pretty readily and don't charge for it. Honestly, companies and governments are more focused on the "big fish" IPTV private providers than randos like us hosting media servers.

Still working on de-Googling people...

As a former RIF user, I am enjoying Liftoff for Lemmy: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.liftoffapp.liftoff&pli=1

A consolidated (and structured) torrent file has been released: https://github.com/yung-megafone/Epstein-Files/issues/1#issuecomment-3860836655

Currently clearing data from my seedbox to get this added.

Thanks for the links. I downloaded the docs and will add them to the pile.

Great post with lots of detail! I have had MyQ for years and hated it pretty much at first use. Back then, they were asking for a monthly fee for the "privilege" of integrating it with Google.

Since the MyQ integration for HA is now dead, I have ordered a Ratgdo and am patiently waiting for it to arrive. I tried the Anthom.tech opener, but that does not work with most Chamberlain/Lift master opener made after 2011.

Is there a way to migrate a food diary from another app like MyFitnessPal?

The primary reason to virtualize is to maximize the "bang for your buck" on your hardware. Containers are great, but have their limits.

So long as you have a desire to learn it (and the budget), I say dive in with Proxmox and see how you can put that hardware to use. VMWare ESXi is more common in a business/enterprise setting, but costs money to for anything beyond the basic functionality after the evaluation period.

Nice! I will have to look into this when I have time in the coming weeks. Looks like a cool project!

I created a helper script to export custom foods from MFP and store them in the NutriTrace JSON format, in case you find it helpful. https://gist.github.com/nomad64/87cf935d8373d730383c5a0e98693c94
