Bitwarden + Vaultwarden server. Or KeepassXC.

I don’t recommend using the browsers password manager.

With vaultwarden it’s very easy, just change the port map in the docker compose file on the host side. No idea how to do it with the official server stack.

It can be done if you implement a reverse proxy in front of the services.

Yep, Proxmox has a built in backup solution which I use paired with proxmox backup server, I also run backups with restic on each VM/CT of the important stuff like config files.

I test restores every now and then, just by either restoring a full VM/CT, or doing a restic restore and checking over some files.

Anything well supported by Valetudo, they have a nice list. I bought a Roborock S5 for $35 on ebay that needed the gearbox for the brush cleaned out, and it works well.

Unless they have current sensing with a build in interrupt for overcurrent, they’re not going to shut off when exceeding 10A.

They run NAT/Firewall by default (or at least mine does), but I also have the VPN tunnel to home because it’s convenient for accessing stuff and hides traffic.

Generic plastic project boxes work well, or for outdoor use a waterproof electrical junction box.

You could run pixelfed without federation enabled: https://pixelfed.org/

It’s like instagram, so should be good for sharing photos and stuff with space for comments.

How can you have too many images? What kind of limits are they showing?

Make sure you’re uploading optimized images optimized for web, and not full size JPEGs or something.

No, it’s just for object recognition to classify recordings.

You can use OpenVINO now on Frigate and get the same/better performance as a Coral, worth checking out.

You don’t need a coral anymore since Frigate supports OpenVINO on 6th gen or newer Intel CPUs. It also supports using QSV for any decoding/encoding that needs to happen.

Frigate uses RTSP for the camera connection.

Docker is very easy to migrate, all you do is copy the data and compose file over.

Extremely easy if you’ve set your projects up using docker compose files.

Just copy the compose file and data volumes over to the new host, run docker compose up -d and you’re all set.

While I’m at it, is there a best OS to base everything on? Preferably free.

Debian, or Proxmox if you want a webUI for containers and VMs.

It will allow up to 15.4W to be drawn from the port by default, if the device only uses 2W then it only gives 2W.

You can’t push 15.4W and have it go nowhere, that’s not how electricity works.

Mumble or Teamspeak is my vote as well. Both solid voice chat systems that work extremely well. Teamspeak is more user friendly and easier to use.

Both are real group voice chats as well, not the “meeting room” group chat that’s a pain to use like Jitsi/Zoom and similar.

My thoughts are:

• With PoE you’re doing 2 conversions which could waste more power, AC to 48V at the switch, and then 48V down to whatever the device needs with it’s internal buck converter. You also have slightly more losses on the longer run of low voltage 48V DC through ethernet, vs AC.

On the other side of things:

• With PoE you only have 1 AC-DC conversion happening, every wall wart power adapter has an idle power draw even without a load attached to it. With PoE you just have the single switch power supply wasting power.

Overall I doubt the difference will be large enough to matter, and some PoE switches are quite power hungry even with nothing plugged in for some reason, so could end up costing more.

Devices pull power, it doesn’t matter how much the PoE switch supplies, as each device will only pull what it needs.

You can still do the setup nearly the same, but you’ll need to change the opnsense LAN to its own unique subnet, and put PC2 on that subnet with a manual IP setup.

Make sure you don’t enable DHCP on opnsense too, since that will really interfere with the existing router.

The only real downside to this, is PC2 traffic to access PC1 or other devices on the main router, will have to go through opnsense and you’ll need firewall rules for that.
