I have a VM running Immich on an outward facing vlan on my main server. I have a old dell with some GPUs in them running llm/ml workloads, on my internal, private vlan. The outward facing vlan can not talk to any other networks other than the internet. I wanted to use the old dell as the remote ML server for Immich, and am looking for possible solutions to my problem.

I have an intel dual x540 nic in the old dell as well as the built in gigabit. I was going to attempt to run the x540 on the external vlan, allowing the old dell to be seen on both networks. Just was not sure if this was the easiest or or most secure solution. I could also set up a wireguard connection between them, but wasn't sure about bandwidth or any other issues that would come with that setup. I was also contemplating just putting the old dell on the same vlan, which there is nothing important or critical on it, just always like to practice best security.

Am I on the right track with wireguard? it seems like it would be the easiest to set up and most secure. Or am I overlooking some other solution someone is using for this predicament?

I am finding older movies not having translation subtitles when people are speaking a foreign language, like in the beginning of The Hunt for Red October or Stargate. Watching the movie on the the physical copy of Stargate, when they are speaking Egyptian, English subtitles come up translating what they are saying. On my digital copy, I have to have subtitles on all the time in order to see the translation, which sucks because I don’t need subtitles the rest of the movie, just when they are speaking Egyptian. My theory is that there was some sort of trigger on the physical copy that activates the subtitles at that point that is missing from the digital copy. Is there a way to fix or get around this? Or am I just stuck reading subtitles the entirety of the movies if I want to know what people are saying in the foreign language?

Setting up my server as a newbie some years ago, I did not have the ability to purchase more then one 8TB hard drive. Outgrew that rather quick and now I have two additional 16TB drives, in a Just A Bunch Of Disk configuration, mounted to different /mnt mount points. I know this is not ideal, but lacking the ability to expand further or buy new drives for a new zfs pool and transfer, I don't have much of a choice but to wipe the drives, set up a zfs raid and re-download everything.

I have everything set up in docker-compose files, so I'm pretty sure I just need to keep those and the folders where the configs are, modify the compose files with the new file structure and... I am unsure where to go from here. Will everything start being grabbed as soon as my dockers spin up? Is there an additional procedure I need to do to make sure I don't wipe my existing config files with blank empty ones? Is there an easier way of doing this?

I have an 8gb Raspberry Pi 4 that has been a workhorse for years. I keep it for my not intense but essential networking purposes, NetBoot.xyz, Homepage, etc., because I can run it over PoE (edit: Power over Ethernet), so it is always on as long as my network is up.

It is growing long in the tooth, and I find myself wanting to replace it with something a bit more capable. Looking at the 8gb Pi 5 at $80 plus another $30 for a PoE hat, I wonder if there is something out there that would be a better value for running PoE? Can you convert a micro pc over to PoE? Does anyone have any recommendations for computers that run off PoE or can be converted to PoE?

Got this sickly looking peach tree in the end of May. After about a month I started seeing red/black spots on the leaves and it looked like something what eating them. Did some research and started spraying it with neem oil. The spots stopped happening on newer hight leaves, as well as the bite marks. Now all the leaves are falling off and it looks like this. Is it dead? Does it have any hope? What can I do to put it on life support and make it through the winter?

Seeing as the only place I found this was on "the place that shall not be named" before the black out, I hope this question can help start the new repository of collective knowledge here in the Fediverse.

I have set up a separate instance or radarr to maintain copies of RiffTrax. The two main questions I have that I can not find answers for on trash's guide or elsewhere, is setting up a custom format that will pull files with "rifftrax" in the title. I found in trash's guide how to exclude with

      {
      "name": "RiffTrax",
      "implementation": "ReleaseGroupSpecification",
      "negate": false,
      "required": false,
      "fields": {
        "value": "^(Rifftrax)$"
      }

and I have been able to create a custom filter that helps when manually searching.

I have two questions:

1. how to modify the above to help me?

2. how do I use my current library on my main radarr instance to help the RiffTrax instance search and pull movies? If that is even possible.
