What’s not working? I just set up TrueNAS for the first time, went with 25.04 and figured I could just update my way out of potential bugs, but the updater is broken :D

I’m reading it so I’d say it works!

How exactly does stuff get broken? Never rly had a problem bumping up the version in docker. The only issue has been the playstore version taking longer to push updates sometimes for the mobile apps.

I feel you 😂

I’m running the Immich Flatpak Snap specifically for this reason. It’s always one version out of date but always self updates without issues :)

Cool! Which installation method did you use?

I didn’t know that, cool! Though I should probably talk to the mods before setting up such a thing.

I’m the one who files the most bug reports on github under a different name. Our instance runs on Lemmy Schedule, so thanks!

I love mealie as well. My wife and I keep all our recipes in mealie.

I found Mealie to be a bit bloated and not fitting my needs too well. I moved to KitchenOwl. Small project but I love it.

You save some money by buying recertified drives from Serverpartdeals.

I used Portainer for a while and still like it for checking out networking stuff, but try out Dockge! It’s more open sourcey and basic, but makes updating easier.

Bash is a really great shell, but consider trying out a functional shell scripting language like Elvish (which is also a shell). Syntatically it’s pretty similar and not hard to pickup, but it’s stupid powerful. A cool example is updating different servers via ssh in parallel using a servers.json file;

[
  {"name": "server.com", "user": "root", "identity": "~/.ssh/private_key0", "cmd": "apt update; apt upgrade -y"},
  {"name": "serverb.com", "user": "root", "identity": "~/.ssh/private_key1", "cmd": "pacman -Syu"},
  {"name": "serverc.com", "user": "root", "identity": "~/.ssh/private_key2", "cmd": "apk update; apk upgrade"}
]

and a little elvish magic;

var hosts = (from-json < servers.json)
peach {|h|
  ssh $h[user]@$h[name] -i $h[identity] $h[cmd] > ssh-$h[name].log
} $hosts

Just run the script and boom, done. You can even swap out peach which is parallel each for each if you want to do each command procedurally–but I really love using peach, especially with file operations over many different files. Linux is fast, but peach is fuckin’ crazy fast. Especially for deleting files (fd -e conf -t file | peach {|x| rm $x }, or one thing that I do is extract internal subs (so they play on my chromecast) in my Jellyfin server, using elvish makes it really fast;

fd -e mkv | peach {|x| ffmpeg -i $x -map 0:s:0 $x.srt }

Find all *.mkv files, pass the filenames through ffmpeg (using peach) and extract the first subtitle as filename.mkv.srt. Takes only about a few seconds to do thousands and thousands of video files. I highly recommend it for home-labbers.

Pretty dumb example, but peach is like 6x faster;

❯ time { range 0 1000 | each {|x| touch $x.txt }}
5.2591751s
❯ time { range 0 1000 | peach {|x| touch $x.txt }}
776.2411ms

I wonder why so many people had issues with the v6 pihole update.

I pulled the new docker container and it ran overtop the previous version just fine. The only issue I had was I had the admin password set to empty via an env variable and that variable name changed. Took like 10 min to find and fix. The rest migrated perfectly.

Now I’m just waiting on orbital-sync to add v6 support, but that’s just around the corner and not that critical.

Yeah, nobody other than Brits use fortnightly anymore.

I mean every other week. I wasn’t aware of the other interpretation, but I think in combination with “The Sunday thread” it’s unambiguous?

I have never heard fortnightly, but then I’m not a native speaker. Is that commonly used?
