What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] little_tuptup@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 months ago

I accidentally wiped my backup. I'm redoing my storage setup and had the backup laying nearby.

I was stunned. I immediately gave up and went to bed.

Proxmox cluster + media streaming stack containers? (lemmy.ml)
 

I was thinking maybe about trying a Proxmox cluster across 6 nodes, and using containers for the Jellyfin media streaming stack here:

For storage, I have two 4tb drives, and I'd like to have them separated across two different nodes, but mirrored and preferably auto fail-over.

Thoughts? Ideas?

What Are Some Things You Regret Buying or Bought but Never Used? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

You can pirate books. Use Calibre and build your library. I have over 2000 books. Doesn't take much storage either.

Chicken cooking rule in c/196@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Try chicken cooked only to 150 sometime. It really does make a positive difference. Extra juicy and extra tender

Tips for how to analyze games as a beginner? (lemmy.ml)
 

I am trying to start analyzing my games, but I am a bit unsure how to even go about doing that. I originally would have the computer analyze my game, and comment on what I think are the main points of the match I should keep in mind.

I have the following tips so far:

  • serious games, create a study to analyze
  • try to comment what went through your mind as you played the game
  • view what others did in a similar position using a database
  • have final comments/lessons learned
  • classify mistakes. leads to pattern recognition
  • computers don't fully understand openings *use computer analysis after my own analysis and see where my analysis went wrong

Any entertaining books about chess? (lemmy.ml)
 

More entertaining than educational. Not so much about education and more about diving into the people and culture and fun stories. Maybe I'm looking for fun inspiration.

Why do YOU homelab? in c/selfhost@lemmy.ml
[–] little_tuptup@lemmy.ml 1 points 11 months ago

Few reasons. One, to help me advance in my career. Two, because I like the idea of open source. Three, tech business are kind of acting evil for money, so I'm going back to being self reliant and piracy.

2x Mikrotik l009 rackmounts or 1x rb5009? (lemmy.ml)

I may have the options between two Mikrotik l009 routers or a single rb5009. Which route should I go?

Just bought Cyberpower OR700 1U UPS (20lbs). Will I need to buy rack mount rails to also support the back or will the cage nuts at the front be enough to support the UPS? (lemmy.ml)

How to fix genres for thousands of songs? And where to download giant catalogs of music? (lemmy.ml)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/6528233

I'm working on building a personal alternative to Spotify and YouTube Music and I've hit two roadblocks.

  1. Genre labeling in my library is inconsistent and manually updating 2500+ MP3s isn't feasible. I've tried using beets with the LastFM plugin in quiet mode but no luck. Any ideas?

  2. Where can I bulk download diverse music catalogs? I've snagged some 'top 90s/80s/hiphop/etc' collections, but 2500 songs don't go far.

What I miss about Spotify and YouTube Music is their ability to auto-play similar tunes based on my current selection. Any advice would be appreciated.
