ASMedia is the only controller IC manufacturer that can be trusted for these IME. They also have the best Linux support compared to the other options and support pass-through commands. These are commonly found in USB DAS enclosures, and a very small fraction of single disk SATA enclosures

Innostor controllers max out at SATA 2 and lock up when you issue pass-through commands (e.g. to read SMART data). These also return an incorrect serial number. These are commonly found in ultra cheap desktop hard drive docks, and 40pin IDE/44pin IDE/SATA to USB converters

JMicron controllers (not affiliated with the reputable Micron) should be avoided unless you know what you are doing… UASP is flaky, and there are hacky kernel boot time parameters required to get these working on Raspberry Pi boards. Unfortunately these are the most popular ones on the market due to very low cost

Probably not.

However, not all USB to SATA adapters support SMART, so even if there is a bad sector that gets remapped by the HDD on-the-fly (and thus does not show up in the software scan), you may not find out easily

After one Google search on my work laptop I was looking for searx instances - a lot of those were going down too due to rate limiting 😭

I used to use MQTT, static_status and Healthchecks.io, and have that data passed through to Home Assistant, but it started to get pretty cumbersome as the amount of machines I had grew.

I now use just Zabbix and HealthchecksIO. I did need to spend some time writing new templates for some additional data I wanted to collect (like SMART data for SSDs that provide health metrics in non-standard attributes, and HealthchecksIO so I could see the status of various checks on my zabbix dashboard)

Zabbix also has some additional features I found appealing, like proxies that can continue recording data when the main server is down, and built in encryption. Some checks like open ports/icmp responses etc can be checked using either the local agent, the remote server, or both, which helps quickly diagnose things like firewall config issues.

I did look at some other solutions, but I wanted something integrated to hit the ground running. Mobile apps are very limited, and there is no official one to my knowledge. I use Moobix which I don’t believe is FOSS - but I could be wrong there

Try each solution out and see what works best for you!

I personally think some types of openly developed software projects should have a strict non-commercial license: if companies aren’t willing to contribute back to the source IMO they shouldn’t be granted permission to freeload & have volunteers fix issues their paying customers run into

Donations are possibly a bit of an exception here - there are quite a few companies that still do this, albeit growing slimmer by the day.

Another big problem IMO is the subset of users that start attacking maintainers and volunteers because their “free app stopped working” etc. I see that a lot, mostly in the arduino community, but especially egregiously on the Zabbix project - I imagine a lot of those users are companies who aren’t even paying/donating to the project

Probably along the lines of federated user activity, so things like upvotes/downvotes etc and subscriptions to a community being federated to the relevant server(s)

So even if you’re lurking just voting on content, someone could setup a lemmy server, sub to a bunch of communities, and theoretically look at incoming activitypub updates from those communities for your activity I think

Questions over there might get removed IMO, last time I checked out of curiosity it was full of memes and very little discussion. Could be different now 🤷‍♂️ but personally i’m staying on Lemmy

I started getting this a few months ago and just switched to other sites instead. Wasn’t worth the hassle as I browse from my phone (vnc’d into a VM)

This is my favorite feature on the MX Master mouse, hands down

Very neat 👌🎉🎉

On a separate note, last one is probably a swordmaster with those 6 fingers lol

AFAIK Lemmy.world (the largest Lemmy instance) was issued a takedown request for something unrelated, and conducted a review of the piracy communities following that.

Unfortunately they decided to remove/unfed a few piracy communities as a result, such as this one on dbzer0.

So while we are still all federated, lemmy.world users can no longer see or interact with the !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com community ☹️

Thank you for the extra info and clarification!

Yepp - the one this community is on 🏴‍☠️

This kind of stuff is making me consider stopping my donations to the Lemmy project, and instead donating to the Sublinks drop-in replacement developed by the programming.dev instance admins

Yes! I’d suggest some mixed zoning sprinkled on top, so you don’t need a car to access bare minimum amenities.

And architects who have in-depth knowledge and experience on how to design public spaces, experienced lighting engineers, and appropriate funding to make sure it doesn’t follow the same failures that previous projects have encountered

Something is wrong with the tagginator in this thread, seems to be creating dupe posts every 1 min?

@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Yepp sorry - what I meant was bundling multiple different root domains, e.g. example.com & example1234567.org in the same cert.

I currently do as you mentioned above, renewing with just one root bundled with its accompanying subdomain wildcard.

Sigh.

On the up side, if anyone wants in, they are free to create accounts on other instances

If anyone is interested in mitigation, the only way around this AFAIK is to start with a brand new domain, only use wildcard certs (with DNS validation), and don’t bundle multiple renewals into a single cert.

Also, don’t enter your domain or related IP address into dns reverse engineering tools (like dnsdumpster), and check certificate transparency logs (https://crt.sh) to see what information related to your cert renewals has been published.

This won’t stop automated bots from scanning your ip for domains, but should significantly reduce the amount of bots that discover them

Curious about your reasoning, especially as I bought a .dev for myself a while back (via a different registrar)

If it was in regards to the .zip TLD then I guess that is understandable, but .dev seems harmless IMO
