Get rid of track limits. I never want to hear those words again. Put a tire barrier in the corner you don’t want people to cut. automatically sanction people who cut the corner and do it immediately. Add an extra bit of asfalt that drivers have to drive on as soon as the have cut a corner, so they loose 5 seconds per lap when they do that. Be creative.

Relax. Have you ever watched a soccer match? There are at least half a dozen errors by the referee in each match that can influence the outcome of a match. Even with the video referee. Sometimes it is in your favor , sometimes it is not, deal with it. Max won and he deserved it.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why and when should I use LVM?English
1·2 years agoLVM is just a way more flexible partition table. It gives you the possibility to grow partitions at a later date. You probably not think you can do that with MBR or GPT too. Well yes, but only when the spare room is adjacent to the partition you want to grow. With LVM you can grow partitions even if the free space is somewhere else on the disk.
So you can grow any disk ‘partition’ at any time as long as you have some free space in the group.
Another advantage is that you can encrypt logical volumes easily. Usually that’s supported when you install the OS.
You can also stack LVM on top of a software RAID, so you can create a mdadm from a disk partition of several disks and create a VG on that with LVs to spilt it into pieces.
I usually use LVM on every server. There is no need not to and gives you options for the future.

Apple@lemmy.world•What do you use your Action Button for?English
7·2 years agoI have the camera during the day and when the focus switches to night mode it toggles the light to the bathroom, so I can easily turn on the lights when I have to go at night.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Way for non-technical users to upload to my server with resumabilityEnglish
181·2 years agoThere is NextCloud. It has the possibility to create an upload link where people can upload stuff. We use it daily to receive stuff from our customers.
If you need the resuming part, you would be better off giving them a NextCloud account and share a folder. Their NextCloud app will sync it in the background and resume automatically.

Formula 1@lemmy.world•If there was a safty car during Checo's 1 lap, would we have to watch a 26 lap unlapping?
12·2 years agoNo, it’s about the order. The idea is not to mix drivers that are a lap (or multiple laps) down with drivers competing in the same lap.
I think Perez would have been to pass everyone once so he becomes the last driver and that is it. (Assuming he was not last to begin with)
It’s about the order of the drivers not so much about getting everyone in the same lap.

18·2 years agoI settled on https://www.audiobookshelf.org Might be a bit confusing at first, but after setting it up, it does exactly what I want. Easy to listen to podcast on my iPhone, including setting speed & sleep timer and the server fetches the new episodes every day.

Formula 1@lemmy.world•How would F1 write a rule to prevent teams from pulling a Perez again?
2·2 years agoWell, I personally don’t like stuff happening after the race. I rather have it during the race. But in your spirit of keeping it simple: if the stewards think a team has done something to evade punishment, they can consider the punishment not correctly served.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why is Hetzner so stingy with server quotas?English
70·2 years agoJust answer them with a little explanation like you did here, you will be fine. Done that, been there.
They just want to protect against people buying lots of servers for a short time, then not paying or doing ddos shit.
Make sure you are not an open relay.
If you also sent mail, make sure you have setup dkim and spf and dmarc

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•[Question] How to isolate my TV from the network?English
11·2 years agoCheck if the router has the possibility to isolate the lan port. That way the port on the router can not talk to other devices in different ports or wlan.
Second possibility is to check if the router supports VLAN. If so you can put the TV or a port on a separate VLAN.
If all that is not possible, consider removing the cable and connect the tv wireless. That way you can put the tv on the guest WiFi network. That should come with isolation by default.
If you don’t want that either, you can resort to extra hardware. Any device with two lan ports could do. Make one port a dhcp based wan port connected to the current network and the other port goes to the tv. Run a dhcp server and nat and you have the tv isolated.
You can use Bind or any other nameserver-server.
But this is one of the things you might want to reconsider. Setup errors might slip in silently and might be hard to diagnose. Complying to the standards like DNSSec and IPv6 on the nameserver might be a challenge without experience.
Next to that, you probably can’t register the domain itself without a third party, and I always advice to not use a different party for nameservers than the party that registered the domain.
Laat point I want to bring up, I would advise against combining name servers with other services, as it is crucial for operating the services, you are creating one giant point of failure. Keep it separated. Seperate hardware
That said, if you accept all these dangers, it’s technically doable. Open the right ports, configure the zone, setup master and slave, read up on glue records, register the name server if needed, setup DNSSec and set the correct name servers in the domain at the party you registered the domain.

4·2 years agoYou probably tried to do to much in one day :)
Netatmo has a delay indeed. There is an option to get a developer account at Netatmo so changes get pushed to HA. But still, it has some quirks.
Advice is to work on one integration at a time, read the documentation, search for your problems. After the integration works, setup your dashboard. After that start with the automatons.
Good luck, HA it’s really worth it, invest a bit more time in it.

Apple@lemmy.world•im looking for an Apple Podcasts alternative, any recommendations?English
7·2 years agoI agree. Overcast!
You can look at backuppc, it has served us well for years now. Offsite, manages incremental and full back ups, file deduplication, etc.
So on your Minecraft server do a daily backup and add the day off the week to it (whatever.7.gz), this way you always have 7 backups on the server and it auto rotates. Add that for folder to backuppc and the backup server will automatically decrease the amount of backups if they get older.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Is it possible to host a private, defederated, and completely isolated instance for use as your own social media platform?English
10·2 years agoYou can run Lemmy private, without any federation.
If you are looking for something facebookish, than you could look at WordPress with BuddyPress plugins for example.
If you cause a yellow or red flag in qualifying your fastest time is taken away instantly. You are ruining the laps of others and you can not benefit from it imho
