On the uptime monitoring I've been quite happy with uptime kuma, but... If you put it on the same host that's down... Well, that's not going to work :p (I nearly made that mistake)

Haha, that's fair. I was being sincere.

I'd initially scrolled past thinking "I played this whilst I was still at Uni, why is anyone talking about it now?"

Now that I know this person's focus is intentionally looking at older games I'm willing to go and give it a watch.

Ah, fair point. I don't use torrents, my media comes from usenet, so that doesn't need to factor into my thinking.

My (overly?) Complex setup does allow me to resort to torrents as a last resort, but that happens on another machine outside my home network and gets synchronised into my home via a one-way syncthing share, so even on the rare occasion I have to resort to torrents I can leave it on that server seeding for a few weeks or months.

Could Snipe it work for you? https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-snipe-it/

It looks like an asset management tool. The description copied and pasted from above reads:Snipe-it makes asset management easy. It was built by people solving real-world IT and asset management problems, and a solid UX has always been a top priority. Straightforward design and bulk actions mean getting things done faster

I think it's a relatively recent thing. As the documentation for each of the *arts has a relatively recent minimum version number I think.

Here's where I went when looking for whisparr, but just replace that with the arr you're wanting to use and it'll give you decent steps for getting your database created and migrated into it: https://wiki.servarr.com/whisparr/postgres-setup

I've been using planka and have been quite happy with my experiences for the last couple of months.

Fair points well made. I thought the 11th was a Wednesday and I've been off on holiday for a week or so, so brain no worky so good just now.

I'll l go back under my lurking rock again.

That's interesting, because I was finding guides for traefik and caddy but not nginx (specifically swag in my case)

The issue I was having, in case it helps you, is that I was trying to expose 8448 on my synapse container which doesn't have SSL instead of on my SWAG container and then redirect to my synapse one.

An alternative to torrenting though is Usenet. It takes a bit of setting up but there are some nice advantages. No worrying about needing to seed back and you're not going to need to worry about a VPN or your ISP forwarding on threatening letters. Sure it costs money, but I think I pay about £45 per year and I don't regret that one little bit.

I started looking at co-working space a few months ago and I took a package where I could get 50 hours a month in it for £100+VAT. When I was in there there were usually a handful of people working away and although I didn't end up really striking up a conversation with anyone just having other people around was good for me as it meant that the only voices I heard whilst working weren't just the ones on our video conferencing software or in my head.

I have stopped using it now though because of a temporary change to my working hours meaning that I can't take use my 50 hours in a month (not even half of them in the lastlnth I was doing it) but once that ends I'll be kicking off that subscription again. If you want to know more about the company I used let me know as I believe they have offices throughout the country.

One method that many people use to hide their IP address of their host is to use Cloudflare for DNS, that way you don't directly expose your IP address to the wider internet. A nice bonus to Clouldflare is that it's free too! Just get yourself a domain, get Cloudflare set up to provide DNS for it and you're golden.

Thanks for confirming before I could bruise back to Lemmy world, find this post and confirm for myself.
