Ah. I still have a “gmail” account but it’s entirely for the places that require a Google account now.
As for YouTube, I just stumbled across this thread: https://lemmy.zip/post/16741291

I highly recommend looking at something like Proton for 3 and 4. Or backblaze for 4 if it’s truly for backup.
I have mine working with Navidrone without any issues.
There is a Home Assistant app for Garmin watches that is pretty usable. The flashlight is surpassingly, hilariously, one of my favorite features though.
I would very much like this too! Especially if it can count distance/steps from other kinds of activities like biking, stationary bike, maybe even swimming.
Home Assistant is a great alternative. It gets better and better as all Google and Alexa get worse and worse.
It’s the THIRDREALITY Motion Sensor https://a.co/d/giK2dvw. It’s worked really well so far.
Neat. I did something similar but simpler. I put a cheap zigbee motion detector in the mailbox and hooked it to a routine to toggle a flag and trigger a notification. Yours sounds like more fun though.
Totally agree. I run both Immich and Nextcloud. Both are great.
For image hosting I would look at Immich. It aims to be a full Google Photos replacement. It isn’t quite there yet, but it is quite featureful and rapidly improving.
Short answer: multiple times every day.
Look at it as a hobby. You will sink as much money into as you want. I started with a cheap mister coffee espresso machine but now have a pretty nice E61 group head machine and jazzed up grinder and all the various coffee toys. It all brings me joy. The morning coffee ritual is what gets me out of bed.
From a cost perspective, if you are the kind of person who drinks 3 lattes from a cafe everyday, then even with the cost of a relatively nice machine and grinder will be paid for with the difference pretty quickly. If memory serves, you save about $4 per cup which adds up pretty quickly.
If you just like the personal heat map then checkout grrrmin_heatmap. It’s a pretty flexible python script for generating them.
What phone functions are you interested in? In theory if you can control it from HA you can control it from Assist. Sometimes it requires a bit more elbow grease though. I don’t use timers much, so I haven’t tried that. I don’t see why you couldn’t create a custom sentence and intent for it though.
I’ve already replaced It with Home Assistant. Wake words are still shaky, but everything else is at least as good if you’re willing to configure it. At least for my use cases.
Kubernetes is great if you run lots of services and/or already use kubernetes at work. I use it all the time and I’ve learned a lot on my personal cluster that I’ve taken to work to improve their systems. If you’re used to managing infra already then it’s not that much more work, and it’s great to be able to shutdown a server for maintenance and not have to worry about more than a brief blip on your home services.
That’s my naming scheme as well. All the big servers are named after the realms. Other devices get monsters, etc
I too started with Slackware 3. Downloaded a billion disks from a BBS over a 14.4 modem. It was definitely an improvement over my previous experience of accidentally downloading Minix in Portuguese. That is a hard way to learn an OS or a language, let alone both simultaneously.
A 6 node k3s cluster with a Synology for network storage running:
Managed with FluxCD.
Yeah, the protocol is called ForgeFed and from what I recall it will be added to Forgejo, then ported upstream to Gitea. Supposedly GitLab has commented on adopting it in the future as well.
I like this idea so much. Do the public libraries not have some kind of video service already? Seems like a network of library-powered PeerTube instances would serve that niche really well.
