  • I move around every 4 months in the US. I stay in long-term Airbnbs (min 1 month stay). I work remote; so, the issue I mostly deal with is my working setup. No standing desk, comfortable chair, multi-monitor setup (using portable external monitor), etc.

    Otherwise, the surroundings of the place I stay at is always a gamble. You never know if its a loud or safe neighborhood just by looking at the posting or street view on google maps. Sometimes there could be construction going on next door.

    Eating around and exploring the country is the best part.

    Update Digital Picture Frame library remotely?

    Is there a way to remotely (wired/wireless) update photos in a digital picture frame that doesn't have any connectivity capability? All it has is a USB port and sd card port.

  • Nothing is truly free with Google. So ya, most likely they are tracking. If you dont want to use Google, there are other options on their wiki

    If not, you can use a dummy account just for this.

  • Definitely learned a lot.

    This app would be useful if you have more than one device. If you run the monitoring application on the same device as the services you are monitoring and if the device goes down, you wouldn't get a notification, right?

    Uptime monitoring in Windows

    Disclaimer: This is for folks who are running services on Windows machines and does not have more than one device. I am neither an expert at self hosting nor PowerShell. I curated most of this code by doing a lot of "Google-ing" and testing over the years. Feel free to correct any mistakes I have in the code.

    Background

    TLDR: Windows user needs an uptime monitoring solution

    Whenever I searched for uptime monitoring apps, most of the ones that showed up were either hosted on Linux or containers and all I wanted was a a simple exe installation file for some app that will send me alerts when a service or the computer was down. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything. If you know one, feel free to recommend them.

    To get uptime monitoring on Windows, I had to turn to scripting along with a hosted solution (because you shouldn't host the monitoring service on the same device as where your apps are running in case the machine goes down). I searched and tested a lot of code to finally

  • Depending on the app, there should be option to use server URL where you can put the server's Tailscale IP and the port.

    For Jellyfin, put the Tailscale IP when it asks for server IP and port 8096 like 100.123.45.67:8096

    Any DE or distro without touch support?

    I have an old AIO PC and its touch panel is not working properly. Are there any DEs or distros that doesnt have touch support?

    Question: Network monitoring with vnStat

    I am using vnStat to monitor network bandwidth on a Debian host that has several Docker containers. Because of the containers, there are several interfaces in addition to eth0.

    My question is, should I just monitor eth0 instead of looking at all the bridge and virtual interfaces to get the actual usage because at the end of the day, everything goes through eth0? Or am I looking at this wrong?

    I have had these add-ons installed for a long time. But, do I need them all?

    Monitoring tool for Windows that doesn't user Docker and notifies through Telegram

    I am looking to monitor *arr services that can send notifications to Telegram. Are there any web service monitoring solutions that can be installed on Windows and not installed using Docker?

    I checked through awesome-selfhosted and awesome-sysadmin repos and couldn't find one. All the ones I saw were either for Linux or container based.
