Very nice! I just did tandoori chicken breasts on my KJ last week. I used a pre-made spice mix that tasted great but the chicken lacked the red color in the end. Really got to get a hold of some kashmiri chili powder, I guess.

I never found a self-hosted budgeting solution I liked until I found actual budget. I wish it had more reports, but it seems like they’ve got a pretty active development community since it recently went fully open-sourced.

It does some object detection, but I’m not very impressed. I haven’t had a real need to search for pictures by object yet, so I’m not sure if it would suffice in a situation where it really mattered.

No complaints so far–my requirements and expectations for it were pretty minimal to begin with. Face recognition is decent although I have to regularly go in and correct a lot of unknown faces from time to time.

Only thing that bugs me currently is having to log in every time. I’d really like a remember-me option.

Ukrainian. I started shortly after my wife, who is Ukrainian, and I got married. It didn’t last long before I stopped/gave up since she wasn’t too interested in speaking it other than to her parents. Her family came to America when she was very young (and the youngest of 4), so she’s much more comfortable with English.

Fast-forward to last February where I picked it up again after Russia invaded. Got through the Duolingo course, but feel like I hit a plateau of sorts and need to get motivated again. I have a physical book, pimsleur, lingq, and anki cards–just need to practice and build up more vocabulary.

Currently running on an old HP Prodesk G2 with Debian 11:

• Actual Budget : personal finance & budgeting
• Dashy : dashboard
• Jupyter : web-based use of jupyter notebooks for data analysis
• Photoprism : photo library
  • I use FolderSync on mine and my wife’s phones to backup photos to photoprism nightly via WebDAV
• mariadb : metadata storage for photoprism
• Pihole : for ad blocking on the network
• Traefik : proxies access to all services

Plus grafana and prometheus for monitoring, although I haven’t fully configured them so they’re not terribly useful at the moment.

All are running as rootless docker containers. I’ve considered switching back to normal rooted containers, since there are some oddities with file permissions and networking (e.g., pihole only sees one client IP address).

All data is backed up to BackBlaze B2 via restic.
