It pops up on BundleHunt every once in a while.

MountainDuck supports this. They call it “cache on demand”. So you could setup an SFTP connection and use it via that. The next version of MountainDuck - v5 - should even support SMB.

On this Reddit thread they suggested SeaFile as their client explicitly supports selective sync. And also MountainDuck which can work with various protocols.

EDIT: Mountain Duck 5 even adds SMB support.

Similar here. As I don’t need multi-user support, I don’t bother with self-hosting some tool.

Bookmarks go to Safari where they’re synced between all my Apple devices and pop up automatically in the address bar.

And long-term bookmarks (news articles, references, etc.) go into Anybox which keeps an offline copy of the website so I can still read it in 10-20 years.

I’m using OwnTracks to feed my Traccar setup at home.

You know you can basically implement Healthchecks.io completely in Zabbix using zabbix-sender or any compatible implementation of it? (Or find a better way, e.g. querying the timestamp of a logfile or even check the logfile for “OK” or “ERROR” lines… lots of ways possible.)

Google, Bing, and a plethora of others.

For me it’s the other way around. In Check_MK I was constantly writing new custom checks and it was all manual code and overall felt like Nagios on steroids (what it was back then) - just not in a good way.

In Zabbix you can do everything in the UI without messing around in the file system. And things like translating SNMP results to readable text works throughout the system without having to include a Python file and then call it from within your various other checks. All the alerting logic can be clicked together and easily amended in the UI. It’s so much more comfortable once you’ve figured it out.

But these 3 are all about metrics, right? While they’re great to monitor and analyse numbers (ping times, disk space, memory, etc.), they aren’t that great with e.g. plaintext error messages in log files. That’s how I remember it from a few years ago, at least.

Also: SpotNet (with e.g. SpotWeb as a client)

What you suggest sounds a lot like the “Briefcase” that was in Windows 9x. I don’t know of something similar, especially not something integrated into Linux.

The easiest way might be to setup SyncThing to share all of your different folders and then subscribe to those you need on your laptop. Just be aware that if you delete a file on your laptop it will also be deleted on your desktop on the next sync. Unsubscribe from the folder first before freeing up the disk space.

Apart from the SMR vs. CMR, if your NAS will run 24/7 you need to make sure to use 24/7 capable drives or find a way to flash a 24/7-specific firmware/setting to a consumer drive. Normal consumer drives (e.g. WD Green) tend to have a lot of energy saving features, e.g. they park the drive heads after a few seconds of inactivity. This isn’t a problem with normal use as an external drive that only gets connected once in a while. But in a 24/7 NAS the drive will wake up lots of times and park again, wake up, park again … and these cycles kill the drive pretty fast.

Check out the Victorinox @work series - so you can have your USB and screwdrivers always with you.

Put your SSD into this case and enjoy proper CD/DVD/BluRay emulation, multiple VHDs and much more.

EDIT: Not an ad, @Okus@lemmy.dbzer0.com . Just the only case that has all these features. And it’s no affiliate link, so I don’t even get anything if somebody clicks on it.

What makes you think there’s no way of updating the firmware? Also, they could be made so that there’s a simple API (like a serial device exposed via USB) and apps for Win/macOS/Linux to update the label. But I guess the demand was never there.

Same here. Like “Cold! Look elsewhere…” 🤣

It’s a shame these never took off. I’d love for my various USB drives to have displays that show their labels and maybe even contents.

Money. It’s much better if you can sell the same thing over and over again.

Apart from all the online tools there are also offline website builders like blocs (macOS/iPad - but there are similar tools for Windows as well) that let you design your website and will spit out the files you then just need to upload to any provider of your liking. It’s basically a WYSIWYG static site generator.
