Hey Selfhosted,...

The Google Photos feature of finding photos of a specific person in your collection by their face is the key feature my wife really loves.

Hello, I’m trying to host my own kbin instance. Mainly for fun and to see if it will work but also because that kind of is the point of federation....

I was trying to troubleshoot a home networking issue, and I plugged my laptop's Ethernet cable into the second bridge port. I thought it would recognize that the device wasn't a router and assign a local IP address behind a firewall. Nope. Windows was assigned an external one....

I just bought a "new" homelab server and am considering adding in some used/refurbished NVIDIA Tesla K80s. They have 24 GB of VRAM and tons of compute power for very cheap if you get them used....

I save and backup all the photos on a Synology NAS instead of using one of the online providers. However Synology Photos doesn't have good search capabilities. So I built a project to search through the images using natural language captions, and found that it works really well....
