As a noun yeah it’s more common in the western world to refer to medical doctors. But its origin is that of teachers, not medical practitioners.

Right. And if you want to self host with some geographic redundancy, it requires having friends or family with a good Internet connection who are willing to let you have a server at their place. Not impossible, but can be annoying.

I’m setting up a raspberry pi+HDD at family’s house, with wireguard to my home network. Fun stuff, but it’s not an off-the-shelf solution, especially when you consider that it’s not my Internet access, it’s theirs, so trying to be polite with bandwidth/data caps means it’s a bit kneecapped.

I have a Mikrotik router, 2x VLAN-enabled switches, and 3x VLAN-enabled APs. My Internet access broke every day for a month while I figured out what I was doing.

Please be direct and stop beating around the Bush.

Codec has huge impact.

I’ve only recently branched out from router defaults…only reason was that I wanted to VLAN off my home network, and mostly just so [Home Assistant-controlled] smart devices can’t talk to the Internet at all.

This is a memory that I hold dear with honor and glory.

FTFY

It could be fun to implement this under *NIX for fun — cronjob to take screenshots, some OCR, throw it in a database…I’d never want to use this “feature” but as an academic exercise it could be a fun project.

But having it implemented by my OS, and not by me…yikes. No thanks.

Double-sided phone could be pretty neat.

I was curious, so I looked it up and it seems that around 3KB is the max for a single 177x177 code (though I imagine this is a “soft” limit?). With 600DPI being common for laser printers, a DPI-limited 3KB would be well under 1cm x 1cm. My hunch is that this wouldn’t be super reliable (DPI limit not necessarily the resolution of the printer?), but I’d be curious to see what the usable QR density actually is. But yeah…a few QR codes should do the trick!

I would be surprised if you couldn’t get 8KB for 200 years out of standard flash simply by extreme duplication — 8GB/8KB means a million copies on one (very small by today’s standards!) drive.

Or is the failure mechanism something other than bitrot?

1. Print out 8KB on high quality paper.
2. Store in good environment…

No, it was the client — not Google — who had a backup with another provider.

You may want to check local regulations — if there’s a legal requirement to delete the data, I’d try to take advantage of that.

On a related note, I cannot recommend Immich enough! I had previously used other self hosted solutions but Immich is just fantastic — great desktop and mobile, awesome locally run ML, great shared link support, an overall awesome experience. (I’m not affiliated at all. Bit of a “gateway drug” to self hosting…)

Eh, I assume there are a phenomenal number of job descriptions that are just copy-pasted over. Native [language] speaker, 5+ years coding experience in [framework that’s been around for 3 years], etc.

I think this is the real question.

Did they quit and join a competitor who offered a better WFH option? Or did they get a taste of the good parts of white collar pandemic life — no commute, flexible hours, work from anywhere — and decide that actually, their entire identity is not just their professional life, and maybe they should retire to see the world/spend time with family?

There are definitely some high profile rage quits over return to office, but I think there are a lot more of the “hey this was fun but time to take care of myself” quits.

This suggests nginx options to use re: hostname. Unsure of your nginx config…

403 Forbidden doesn’t necessarily mean a bad login attempt. Are you sure that’s the error? My troubleshooting steps would be to access directly (no nginx), and look at the logs for a successful login. Then, look try to login with nginx, and look at those logs (both access.log and error.log on nginx, and any/all logs from syncthing). Find out where the two cases diverge and go from there.

Does syncthing have a domain name specified? If it doesn’t know its domain name it may work from IP directly but not via reverse proxy. Just a hunch.

I’d definitely take a look at the syncthing logs…

Can you post the syncthing logs, as well as the nginx logs?

I assume you’ve seen this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48626459/refused-to-execute-script-because-strict-mime-type-checking-is-enabled

Can you post your nginx config? Is it just this one with different variables? https://docs.syncthing.net/users/reverseproxy.html
