To be honnest, Nextcloud is kinda a piece of shit software. Every major version break something, an error in an extension can make it crash entirely without any failsafe preventing it. I already lost the database twice (in what… 5 major versions), and the only reason I still use it is because I’m too lazy to use anything not in the TrueNAS apps repository.
Well you are lucky, or they fixed their mess a way or another. I spent at least a full week to try to make it work, to no avail.
Nextcloud Talk ils a great option for families. But if you expect to use the Video Call feature, prepare for a lot of headache. I tried multiple time configuring it, never managed to make it work for longer than one call.
Thx, but I’ll stay with alternativeto.net. At least that one is not an ad in a trenchcoat.
Fair point. I do agree with the “clic to execute challenge” approach.
For the terminal browser, it has more to do with it not respecting web standard than Anubis not working on it.
As for old hardware, I do agree that a temporization could be good idea, if it wasn’t so easy to circumvent. In such case bots would just wait in the background and resume once the timer is fullified, which would vastly decrease Anubis effectiveness as they don’t uses much power to do so. There isn’t really much that can be done here.
As for the CUDA solution, that will depend on the implemented hash algorithm. Some of them (like the one used by Monero) are made to vastly more inefficient on GPU than it is on the CPU. Moreover, GPU servers are far more expensive to run than CPU ones, so the result would be the same : crawling would be more expensive.
In any case, the best solution would be by far to make it a legal requirement to respect robot.txt, but for now the legislators prefer to look the other way.
To solve it or not do not change that they have to use more resources for crawling, which is the objective here. And by contrast, the website sees a lot less load compared to before the use of Anubis. In any case, I see it as a win.
But despite that, it has its detractors, like any solution that becomes popular.
But let’s be honest, what are the arguments against it?
It takes a bit longer to access for the first time? Sure, but that’s not like you have to click anything or write anything.
It executes foreign code on your machine? Literally 90% of the web does these days. Just disable JavaScript to see how many website is still functional. I’d be surprised if even a handful does.
The only people having any advantages at not having Anubis are web crawler, be it ai bots, indexing bots, or script kiddies trying to find a vulnerable target.
Anubis is no challenge like a captcha. Anubis is a ressource waster, forcing crawler to resolve a crypto challenge (basically like mining bitcoin) before being allowed in. That how it defends so well against bots, as they do not want to waste their resources on needless computing, they just cancel the page loading before it even happen, and go crawl elsewhere.
Hey! Pope down the puns a bit.
You don’t need 4 drive for redundancy, 2 is enough. You only need 4 minimum for a raidz2, or raid 10.
My setup uses a pair of SSD in mirror for apps, and a 5 disk raidz2 (4 data disk + a hot spare) as a main data backbone.
On the other hand, algae do not produce shade, not sure if it filters atmospheric pollutants, and trees provide all sort of other services to the local ecosystem.
Maybe this invention can be used on places where trees cannot lives, but I’d still take a city with trees over a city full of green tanks.
As a fellow TrueNAS user, i’d advice you to wait a little bit, especially if you already have a working deployment.
The action runner isn’t yet available, and there is still some bugs to iron out (wrong password used for the database, you have to manually correct it on first init).
Net 100% renewable, no nuclear. I can even choose where it comes from (in my case, a wind farm in northwest France). Of course, not all of my electricity come from there at all time, but I have the guaranty that renewable energy bounds equivalent to my consumption will be bought from there, so it is basically the same.
Between 50W (idle) and 140W (max load). Most of the time it is about 60W.
So about 1.5kWh per day, or 45kWh per month. I pay 0,22€ per kWh (France, 100% renewable energy) so about 9-10€ per month.
Or smart sockets. I got multiple of them (ZigBee ones), they are precise enough for most uses.
I still prefer OsmAnd, far more feature, and at least you can ask it to avoid a specific road. Organic Map cannot.
Maybe the Murena version, but the official one is stock android with all its trackers.
An unstoppable fuck colliding with an unmovable fuck.
Removed the parental advice part. I didn’t want to be an asshole, believe me.
To me it looks like you don’t have enough power, either on the Pi4 side to decode, or the mini-pc to encode.
My Z2 had à drive failure recently, with 4To drives. Took me almost 3 days to re-silver the array 😅. fortunately had a hot spare setup, so it started as soon as it failed, but now a second drive is showing signs of failing soon, so I had to pay the AI tax (168€) to get one asap (arriving Monday), as well as a second one, cheaper (around 120€), but which won’t arrive until the end of April.
