I am not sure if this will pique your interest but I find kinetic sand tables really fascinating. Sisyphus came up with it first and there have been a number of open source implementations in due course. One way is to implement it using a scara arm mechanism but they have the problem of load weight in the case of long arms.

I came across this design that rethinks the design using an elegant rack and pinion arm but still needs a belt that may go out of calibration over time. This looks to be improved further using [two, concentric rings] (https://frew.io/work/sisyphish) but this design is not available to explore/copy.

I have no idea about 3D designing, but I would love to create a table one day: something that will not need constant adjustment. If you get around to taking this up, I would love to see what design improvements you can come up with.

Yes, i think squid proxy would do the trick too. It even has installers for windows.

Look at the silver lining. At least their computers must have escaped the recent windows BSOD.

Thanks, I’ll look into them.

I’ve set up tailscale in the past week and fallen in love with the ease of use. So, this has my vote too. But, if i was doing this, i would chop the file into, say, 500mb parts using 7z or WinZip and then transfer it through SCP (WinSCP if using windows) over tailscale IPs.

I am slowly moving towards making a planetarium of my own. Was able to get the dome done using PVC pipes. I’m figuring out the best way to put a screen that’ll be somewhat strong, smooth and good enough to project upon. Biggest hurdle is getting a particular fisheye lens that is suitable for the purpose.

Thank you! I’ll look into it.

Your point is valid. I’ll use the learnings from this thread for other, robust, services first and keep an eye on the progress of immich in terms of security.

Thank you, I’ll work it out based on what you’ve told me.

Thanks, I’ll figure the best way out based on the responses.

And lol, I did not know about goDaddy being this bad since this was the first time I purchased a domain. Is it possible to move domains from one provider to another or do I have to wait for it to expire and then register on the other provider?

I read about funnel and it is really cool. But it seems to only expose the services through a *.ts.net type of URL. What I want is to use the domain that I’ve acquired.

I have used reverse proxy in office setup where my local IP was NATed to a dedicated public IP. But in my home lab, I don’t have a dedicated public IP. So, i need to figure a way around that.

For now only Immich, but on a sub domain like I said in the PS. And yes, immich is installed using docker.

If-, by Rudyard Kipling.

Different stanzas of the poem have given me strengths through different challenges and I keep coming back to it.

ViMusic has not been updated in quite some time. RiMusic is actively being developed.

I wish there was something for HP 800 G3s. I bought them used after a lot of deliberations and would love to keep it running for as long as I can while not losing out on functionalities.

Sentinel data from Copernicus is free and of better spatial resolution than Landsat.

I’m scared to these ‘breaking changes’ even though I’m not exactly a self hosting newbie. That’s because I don’t have a proper 3-2-1 backup and I’m afraid I might lose my photos or settings. I’ve been exploring of setting up immich through a homeserver management tool like runtipi that allows taking backups separately that can be reverted to, in case something goes wrong. Anyone aware of any negatives about that?

Yes, aka Antipodes map . Very useful in case you are interested in makingEarth Sandwich. A place not very far from me has its antipode on a tiny but touristy island. I’m thinking of contacting the popular hotels on the island to put a flyer in their lobby in case anyone is interested in making the sandwich.
