Does anyone happen to know if there is a N100 model that supports HDMI-CEC so I can make my old TV set smart with a recent Kodi and maybe some retro-games? But I’d rather not let it consume 9W or whatever such a machine needs all day long. So it’d need to start and shut down on its own. Preferably without manual additional steps involved, hence the CEC…

Do you install the CA certificate or the client certificate? Because both aren’t the same. The app needs to authenticate with a client certificate file. The server has a server certificate that is checked against the CA certificate. So you’d install that (CA) in the android system certificate store and additionally give a client certificate file to the app.

I have a NFS and Samba share to my NAS. And Jellyfin exports things via DLNA / UPnP so there is always a local route to the storage. Also I’ve set the IP address of the server in the /etc/hosts file of my router. So even when internet is down, the DNS can resolve it.

Ah okay. I don’t have a Fritzbox here. I suppose that does the trick. My idea was to use that to test if incoming IPv6 works. So disregard any services on the Fritzbox itself and just see if you can access it directly. And if yes, configure an IPv6 port forward to the NAS.

Isn’t myfritz plain old IPv6 directly to the router without any proxying or tunneling? If yes, communication would mean IPv6 packets make their way through the ISP to the router.

If you google it, you’ll find lots of similar questions for O2. I think you have to contact their customer support and get that activated once.

And have a look at your IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Sometimes you can do it via IPv6 already, just not over IPv4 because there is some translation in the way. (In case they want too much money to give you a real IPv4 address.)

Maybe you can try if you can open your FritzBox UI from the outside with your my.fritz address. I think that has IPv6 and a port forward in place (if activated).

And btw: It’s perfectly fine to do it. People need storage and online collaboration. Access to their data while away.

I usually look at these awesome … lists. They list quite some mail servers:

I think you first need a mailserver, then you’d use imapsync (for example) to move the mailbox initially, and then periodically fetch the mails from gmail.

For outgoing mail you can either configure your mailserver to relay mail via your gmail account. Or configure your mail program to send mail directly via gmail.

I met people here on Lemmy who thought Sailor Moon was child porn…

What was the subreddit? Maybe this wasn’t what you think it is but you were off-topic like they claimed?

Edit: Ah, seems r/TrueOffMyChest. They’re right in deleting your post. You stated your opinion on the gaming world and that game. TrueOffMyChest say in the first sentence, it’s not about personal opinions. So you posted it to the wrong subreddit. It’s about personal stories (from your life)! So it’s your fault. And they don’t necessarily agree or disagree with you on the facts. It’s just that you spammed stuff somewhere where it doesn’t belong. Nothing else.

If you’re having frequent power outages, you might consider buying an UPS. Other than that, I’d just buy a new CMOS battery every few years. Mine seem to last way longer than 4 years. Maybe 8y or so.

Btw: When posting pictures or doing online dating, lots of things are missing. You can’t hear how a person is talking, laughing and directly interacting. So due to the nature of it, it’s bound to be fixiated on outer appearance. At least at first and for short interactions. I think that’s why it’s different online and in real life.

Sure. There’s a nut to every bolt. Or so they say. I’m also not interested in a partner who is just fixiated on outer appearance. Or money. I like people who like me for who I am. And that’s why I personally consider such statements as valuable information and immediately move on to the next person who isn’t as shallow and incompatible to me in what we value in life and other people.

Oh… Yeah, they’re idiots. And don’t have a clue. I think you should try to ignore them if you don’t plan on dating them. Maybe don’t have them be close friends either.

In my experience such random bullying is quite common in school. But once your grow up, such things become more rare in the adult world. Your mileage may vary. There are adult bullies and a*holes who like to pick on people. They’ll find something to tease and bait you. Outer appearance is a common and cheap way to do it.

If you’re still in school: It might become better after that. If not: Congratulations, you met some proper pricks. I hope they’re just some random people you don’t have to interact with ever again.

What’s the story behind this? Do women tell that to men? Or men to other men? And in what context? While dating? Or casually?
And why does it even matter?

I managed to get the open source call recorder working on a rooted LineageOS device. Seems it doesn’t work without root.

Beware - recording people without their explicit consent is illegal in lots of countries.

You could also use an office SIP phone and/or a telephony server (PBX) and a landline which might include recording capability. Or something like Google voice or a business phone provider which might offer email transcripts as part of their service. Or you get the audio via an (emulated) headset. Either cable or bluetooth. But that requires additional hardware. And check if your default dialer has some recording feature. I can enable that when opening the default dialer in the settings. And while in call a “record” button will appear next to “hold”. It’s not automatic though. You have to start a call and then manually record every one. And it might play a beep sound to the other party.

Recording would be the first step. Without that working, we don’t need to discuss the next steps. But I agree, the next steps would be to chain something like Whisper or FasterWhisper and then an LLM.

I suppose the next flagship android devices (Pixel?) come with similar features, as Google etc are pushing their AI services and features.

Sure. Depends entirely on which instruct tuned model you choose. The official one from Meta has guardrails in place. A community tuned one (like Fimbulvetr, Stheno, …) generally build on the base variant and comes without any guardrails. There are exceptions to the rule, some extend the other variant or some other model. I think Mistral also has censorship. And the big ones like ChatGPT are heavily censored. This also makes it creep into other models if they heavily rely on synthetic data from ChatGPT without mitigating for that. I’m not sure which model you took.

I really dislike being lectured by ChatGPT, being forced to have an argument with my computer before it does the task I hand out. It’s not a big deal for some tasks like enhancing my mails, but I’m trying to get a bit more creative with AI. And things I really had difficulties with were writing a detective / murder mystery story, writing (lewd) fan fiction and songtexts which I want to generate for Suno. I just avoid all the “censored” models and ChatGPT, because it usually goes on a long tangent and lectures me about murder and why it’s wrong and how you have to consider both sides of a story. Plain refuses to talk about some stuff and won’t touch adult topics. Even if I tell it 10 times that it’s pretty common to write songs or stories about such things.
I’ve tried several “jailbreaks” and maybe I’m too late to the game, because I found dozens of prompts for ChatGPT and not even one worked for me. (And these are only some examples. I think these tools are also not supposed to give you medical advice, be a lawyer … and I regularly get something trigger the safety mechanisms. But I’m a responsible adult and want to be treated like one.)

So I just use the Llama models. And I like their tone and way of speaking to me way better. Hence my question if there’s a base model available and I can expect some good community fine-tunes in the future, entirely without refusals and long lectures about ethics. And ideally I’d like to not have it censored and the un-censired and use a degraded version, but an unrestricted one from the community like I used before. (Btw also Meta seems to have improved their approach. Also the newer “censored” versions don’t outright refuse. They’re very polite and try to offer you an alternative. But sadly I want what I asked for and not something else.)

I think I can answer my question now. There wasn’t much first-hand information available when I first asked. But it seems they have a base variant and an instruct tuned variant available. I’m still not sure if they did something to it, but if they stick to what the term “base model” meant, it should be what I’m looking for.

But it’s super annoying when doing storywriting or using it as an agent. And then you have to do detection and extra handling of refusals, circumvent them and write extra prompts. And I think I read some paper that jailbreaking and removing “censorship” tends to make the models a bit stupider. I think in general it’s way more clever to take a model without guardrails and fine-tune it, than to put them in place and then remove them again, degrade the model in the process and also make your life harder. A base model should be entirely without any censorship. (It’s a base model though. It obviously won’t follow instructions or answer questions… It’s the basis for the community to take and fine-tune, aligned with our vision of baked-in ethics or the lack thereof.)

I’m not sure if 3-4 times a day is a lot. I had computers (especially laptops) which were way more aggressive with spinning up and down the disks. Maybe you can look it up. A decent (enterprise(?)) hdd should have some datasheet available including info about how often you can powercycle or spin them up/down.

And I wouldn’t wake up disks deliberately. If you don’t mind the 5-10s waiting, you can just spin them down at the end of the day and leave them that way. The next day they’ll either spin up on first access, or they won’t. And save that one cycle. I’m not sure though if you can change the spindown timeout during the day without also waking it up. I mean you could run a script that spins them down at 22:00 and sets the timeout to 1h, and at 07:30 you run a script to keep them awake for a 6h period. But you’d need to test if changing that setting wakes them up. Or I’d rather not run a script like that. Sometimes executing hdparm spins up a disk, even if unnecessary.

I think you got enough recommendations for several tunneling solutions.

Apart from that (and free DynDNS) you could also use a regular paid DNS provider. Some of them also offer DynDNS or an API. I think I saw some regular providers in the list of my DynDNS client on my router, next to the super cheap or free ones.

It’s easy to use, reliable, and doubles as a webserver so I only need one software to host my websites and also do the reverse proxying to the other webservices.

Buy the cheapest graphics card with 16 or 24GB of VRAM. In the past people bought used NVidia 3090 cards. You can also buy a GPU from AMD, they’re cheaper but ROCm is a bit more difficult to work with. Or if you own a MacBook or any Apple device with a M2 or M3, use that. And hopefully you paid for enough RAM in it.
