I went down that rabbit hole too when I thought it should have been idle. Turned out it was routine data integrity checks and indexing.
Ages ago Synology used to have (maybe still does) a virus scan utility based on clamav (I thiiiiiink) and it only found windows viruses I had in spam emails on my Mac backups.
Good news! Soylent Green can solve all three with a bit of processing.
Welp, that’s not the direction I expected my search to take… Learned something new today.
Haha heck no, at least not in my case. It’s not impossible to just stumble on the domain. An infinite monkey sorta thing.
I get frequent login attempts from Google servers too. I got the impression they offer a SaaS service some script kiddie uses to attack home assistant installations.
Make sure passwords are unique and activate incorrect login bans.
I quite enjoy these songs too, but there is speculation they are AI. I heard another totally different song that had the same exact tempo and characteristics. I turned to my S.O. and we both gave each other the same inquisitive look; this sounds eerily familiar.
So dang catchy though.
For backups, I have my usual local copy, but I also have technologically befuddled parents who I “help” with a server running Pi-hole (and other security), their local backups, and we each host remote backups of each other’s servers. Works pretty well for us.
As for heat, I mostly use low power equipment, but moved some docker containers to a more powerful server that only warms up when accessed.
I lost a raspberry pi for a couple months. Just couldn’t find the darn thing. It was working fine serving away.
Turns out it was in the basement. I forgot I moved it to be closer to my tilt Hydrometer.
As much as I hate the man touching our landmarks and his horrendous “aesthetics”…
… are we jumping on the green tile bandwagon?!?
That’s a rough one to defend; right up there with carpeted bathrooms. Oof.
Edit 1 day later: Just saw a picture of the marble version. The images didn’t load when I read the article yesterday. Yikes. Green tile FTW.
I remember running a website off a RAM disk for a little while to maximize page speed and game servers. Laptop drives were slower than 5400 and it did give the site a good boost.
Very unstable system though. And so much fun.
