I’m guessing the author is getting some kind of referral to send them to that other site that hosts grafana. Because home assistant has a 3rd party app for grafana built in. Granted it would be a few more steps than they outlined, but it’s also not sending your data to some random company.

I think they meant they had to unblock 3lau to see deadmau5 comment

No particular reason. Just chose one and went with it.

FYI, for step 3 you should be able to do a “docker compose pull” with the same effect.

Edit: and on step 8.2, to minimize down time, you can also do the pull before stopping the containers.

I feel like I have the same or similar issue, but I’m using synapse server with element app. If I’m on mobile sometimes I don’t get my notifications at all until I’m back on Wi-Fi, then a steam of them.

Or to keep things fresh, only keep the oldest 100gb.

I see someone mention watchtower, while not a bad thing, I just prefer to manually update. This helps to ensure any breaking changes don’t break my system. Especially with something like Immich at it’s had a lot of them recently as they work towards stable. I just generally subscribe to their release and do updates as necessary.

Now that you mention it, I always do a

docker system prune -f

This will clean up old images that are no longer used. I setup an alias command in Linux to do all of those commands.

I just named it docker_update and saved it in my ~/.bashrc

Did you use docker compose file or just run a command to start the container?

Edit: I always use compose files. For that you can do the following:

docker compose pull
docker compose down
docker compose up -d

You don’t technically need the stop, but I’ve found once or twice in the past where it was good to stop because of image dependencies that I forgot to put in my compose.

For running a command directly I found this website that seems to summarize it pretty well I think:

Until they start to force you to connect to “finish” setup. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.

For now my new LG turns on directly to my external device and isn’t connected to the Internet. I did have to change a setting to turn on to the last input used instead of the useless home screen.

That was part of why I stick with it. Does exactly what I need to to do and nothing more. It also works with my watch for reminders and confirmation of taking the pills.

It’s a pretty simple interface.

I use take-your-pill

Not released on any store and near as in I can tell has no telemetry.

Not sure about at rest encryption, but I just label my pill with the first letter or two.

Pretty old project, but it’s pretty well done and doesn’t need a whole lot of the “new” features.

I like that I can keep getting reminded as I don’t always take it right when I need to.

A good case for a charge back.

Not that I’m aware of, but I’m not as knowledgeable as someone else. I’m hoping some quick research or someone better can help. If I remember I can look later on this evening, but can’t at the moment.

Someone more knowledge than me can correct me, but I’m pretty sure you could buy a newer bigger drive to replace an older drive. You obviously wouldn’t get the full capacity as it would be limited by the other older slower drives. However, you would get a, theoretically, more reliable drive than a random one on eBay. Then as you replace older drives eventually you could have increased size.

Caveat is that it will put stress on the old drive to rebuild, however you’d get that with any drive you put in. General wisdom I saw says to replace all the drives. Although that can be expensive.

I’m any case make sure you have a backup before you do any of the changes.

A little off topic, but on first glance I thought that website was called fart caller.

On topic, I’ve never Heard of this service. I still haven’t setup anything like this. Might give it a try.

I can’t updoot you enough. I hate that so much too.

I moved from Arch to Bazzite as my day to day. I enjoy my time more than with Arch. More than a few times I went to do updates or install something and it took forever. Could be (probably is) my fault for not knowing how to skip some of it at the time? I find Bazzite to be intuitive and cutting edge enough for my liking. The gaming aspect of the OS makes certain things easier too.

Seems they want to force you to use their “Car Thing” voice assistant. Probably to listen into your conversations…
