I’m taking a dump in my closet

Or extreme heat. I’ve got family and friends fleeing Arizona every year

Yep, my family only had manual vehicles growing up so I had to learn stick just to start driving. AZ here, also mid 30s.

Homelab for me too. Started off with a repurposed gaming PC and exploded into multiple hosts, tons of drives, and an itch to keep expanding

Wow, I had no idea that there was a quote out there that aligns so well with my beliefs. I grew up in a semi religious household but was never forced to go to church. My parents encouraged me to go, not only to theirs but even go with friends that were different religions.

After going to various churches through some really vulnerable times I still don’t subscribe to any religion, but I also can’t bring myself to go full atheist.

Too bad that quote is way too long for a tattoo 🤣

Search it at your own risk.

Lmao, how have I never put that one together?

Agreed. I haven’t come across any instances I care to participate in that have that enabled though.

This is ultimately why I decided to roll my own instance. I’m keeping my backup here though in case I mess something up, but full control is nice to have.

@synae@lemmy.sdf.org is correct, you can pass the values through that part of the UI. I used to do it that way and had Portainer watching my main branch to auto pull/deploy updates but recently moved away from it because I don’t deploy everything to 1 server and linking Portainer instances together was hit or miss for me.

Edit: I just deployed it like this (I hit deploy after taking the screenshot) and confirmed both inside the container that it sees everything as well as checking where Portainer drops the files on disk (it uses stack.env)

Stack settings

Environment vars in container

Portainer stack on disk

I don’t know why I did all that, but do with it what you will lol

This looks great. Gonna give it a whirl this weekend

You can already do this. You can specify an env file or use the default .env file.

The compose file would look like this:

environment:
      PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL: ${PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL}
      PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL: ${PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL}
      PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY: ${PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY}
      PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL: ${PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL}

And your .env file would look like this:

PUBLIC_RADARR_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_RADARR_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:7878
PUBLIC_SONARR_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_SONARR_BASE_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8989
PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_API_KEY=yourapikeyhere
PUBLIC_JELLYFIN_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8096

This is how I do all of my compose files and then I throw .env in .gitignore and throw it into a local forgejo instance.

They have a similar integration with Bitwarden that I’ve used a bit. I ended up stopping though because I rely on a catch-all and just give out companyname@ or something generic like work@ or family@. Sure it’s easy to guess but I haven’t had any spam issues in the ~15 years I’ve been operating this way.

Nobody actually gets my Fastmail login address though. I picked a random string on one of their domains that’s literally only used to sign in. A fun little added obscurity feature.

Yeah I suppose I could be missing email and not know (because it never got delivered) but I get everything I expect to receive and I haven’t had anyone reach out asking why I haven’t responded to an email I never received. It’s good enough for me for now though.

LDAP support isn’t something that’s ever crossed my mind for mail, definitely a legit reason to stick with the Googs.

Yep. It was a fun ooh look what I can do that I have exactly zero people to communicate with using those features.

In the same vein, not using Google is similarly silly. Most of my personal contacts use Gmail or o365 so they still get a copy of my email anyway. But at least this way my money isn’t going to them and nobody’s scanning my inbox to advertise to me (☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞

I moved to Fastmail last year and it’s been entirely unremarkable which is exactly what I want. Mail in and out works, it’s reliable, I have my custom domains.

It really depends on the level of privacy you’re going for and what features you want. For me I needed custom domain support with catchalls. The only other requirement I had was to not be Google. I debated between Fastmail and Proton for a while (Fastmail for features/price, Proton for the “better” privacy.) Ultimately I ended up on Fastmail because I would have had to pay for a higher than necessary account at Proton for what I wanted.

I don’t do it all in one compose file out of preference, but as others have said Gluetun + your preferred torrent client with all networking going to Gluetun. I’ve been running this way with deluge for a while now and it’s been solid as a rock.

I pretty much always leave stuff seeding once I get it these days. Ever since I bumped the disk space on my NAS it made it a lot easier to leave stuff instead of jockeying for space on disk.

My higher ratio items are all old shits like You Got Served lmao
