Not if you get a laptop that supports battery charge limiting. Like a Thinkpad.

Tell them to suck it up and deal with it. ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

The M920q is 8th gen

Ah, ok, I get the general idea now. UCCU uses this software, too (you said you worked for MX, which is based in Lehi… I also work in Lehi 😅), but I gotta be honest - I’m not a huge fan of the mobile app. It just feels like a PWA. But that might just be UCCU’s implementation, so, IDK.

Thanks for the explanation though!

The whole thing 😅 how do I know if my bank uses MX?

Can you elaborate on this some more?

I use a few of those already (HA, Proxmox, etc), I’ll have to check it out later.

Ntfy’s public server costs money. Something that’s need-to-know when suggesting an app to someone who’s curious about its functionality.

I already have a small cluster that I run shit on, so that’s they way I would take.

I poked around and it’s a bit more involved than that.

My only beef with LubeLogger (and it’s a pretty minor one, given it’s just the one dev) is the lack of a mobile app. I’ve used aCar since 2012. I have years of data logged, and IMO, having periodic reminders and widgets available at a single tap is a bit more favorable than a PWA.

I am very curious about ntfy though. Please do share.

I run this on a simple docker instance.

I have several NFS shares that host multiple docker volumes. So yes.

Fuck Teams, all my homies hate Teams

Sounds like you’re pretty familiar already! I use OMV for my NAS and have several NFS shares for various services. It’s a solid solution IMO.

First and foremost: Do not expose your host system or the OMV admin interface to the internet. Ever. Doing so is only asking for trouble. Only expose services that have been properly isolated from the rest of the network and host system. Everything else you can access via VPN, or locally.

Secondly: OpenMediaVault beginner’s guide by DB Tech. Him, Craft Computing, Hardware Haven, and a few others whose names currently escape me, are all solid sources for learning how to host things at home.

After OMV, I would start with learning Docker and other containerization methods, and VMs.

Some laptops (Thinkpads in particular) are capable of limiting the battery level via a Linux application called tlp so it doesn’t go pop when plugged in 24/7.

There are root apps that can limit battery charge level. If you have an older phone that’s rootable, I would look into that.

The VM eats through the battery, that’s the only hangup I have with this. Otherwise that’s a fantastic idea.

That first part is why I still maintain my Google Photos account. I have most of it on Immich at this point, but given that’s still in active development, I like having options.

That’s a solid 3rd party use case. I’m setting it up on my cluster right now.
