Yeah, so far, it's been OK here. Not incredible, not shit - just OK. We still have an issue of range of selection with Amazon here in Australia. I'm finding plenty of things I search for have to come from international sellers, with longer deliveries and/or at higher prices.

But, for average crap (need that replacement USB cable for my daughter's tablet tomorrow, can't find the time to get to the shops today), it's hard to beat Amazon in Australia right now.

Once again, it leaves me in awe of just how much power we can get from FOSS.

Yeah, no doubt there's some benefits there. My problem is that I don't (yet) have the storage system to make my Proxmox cluster properly HA. Technically, a hardware fault could still take down my OPNsense instance, whereas I have a secondary Pi-hole running on a RasPi, for redundancy.

LibreTube and self-hosted Piped server is working really well for me. I only wish SmartTubeNext (or another Chromecast GTV client) would use Piped as well.

I pull all my data into Grafana anyway, so dashboarding on any platform holds little attraction for my use case.

That said, my pair of Pi-hole servers pre-dates my OPNsense setup, plus I use a lot of internal hostname resolution for service portability. My single instance of OPNsense doesn't tick all those boxes for DNS.

Thanks for that. Much appreciated. Not sure why it didn't turn up in my search.

Any plans to make it available on Spotify?

Yep - same here. Australia, early 80s. You?

From memory, when I was a kid, it used to be that a billion was 10^12, but I think most of the world changed at some point to adopt the American billion of 10^9.

Edit: wiki article that discuss a little of this

When I was an up and coming Unix admin, the senior admin told me it was all about "little tools for little jobs", and the OS lets you string them together into whatever solution or outcome you need.

That was nearly 30 years ago. Still holds true today.

I use IP Webcam on my old phones as CCTV cameras, one for the inside of my garage and the other in my 3D printer enclosure.

Both cameras Just Work as mjpg cameras in Home Assistant. No internet, nothing.

What I haven't (yet) tried doing is configuring them in my Frigate nvr (running on docker) - that might give you the complete package you're looking for.

Yeah, sadly there isn't. I don't envy lawmakers - there's a knife edge they have to walk, between enabling them to catch the bad guys, but without infringing on the rights of the innocent.
