Good idea!

Brands of what?

Thanks for mentioning SingleFile. I’m not using it right now.

I reckon the problem with that is… what’s the source for the recommendations and then what’s the sink?

Like, first, how do you get all that information about music, type of music, musicians, year of release etc?

Then where do you store it? Then you come to the problem of building a robust recommendation engine. Sure that’s one step that seems solvable with open source. Not easy. Solvable.

Then, what does a person do with the recommendations? So you have to build ways to export to YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, FOSS music solutions. Perhaps plugins are the way to solve this.

Not saying it’s not doable. Just difficult.

Though I also believe someone would have tried to tackle it in their capacity in the FOSS world. Don’t know how Fedi plays into this. Maybe an online radio station?

Spotify scrobbles to LastFM. Maybe they have an API or export solution? All you would have to do is play your playlist straight through once after connecting to LastFM.

I don’t know about importing it further as I don’t know what Navidrome is.

Yeah I had no context of that. I thought the only time Pic was captured and tortured was by the Borg. Did the Cap just keep getting into shiz like this all through his career?

For real? What comes after four?

$28 a year??? Woah.

My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?

By the way, if you get XVfb running for puppeteer (a little further down in the readme), let me know.

Try using this following project as your base image before throwing puppeteer on it (or use the inbuilt functionality to take screenshots). It includes Jessie Frazelle’s seccomp profile. If you want nightmares, go read her blogpost about it. Otherwise just let it be and follow the setup guide in the readme of this project -

You wanna know a fun way to do this?

GitHub (and I think Gitlab too) supports you running their runner within your own infra. It’s literally a binary that needs permissions and space. Then, you can tell your git repo to use that runner to run docker compose and as part of the “build” process, deploy you container to the same or an in-network machine.

This is not secure, it’s probably going to involve a lot of hard coding of local IPs or server names etc. But you can make it work.

I use this way to get a Win11 PC to run some regular containers on itself. Works like a charm.

So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?

huh. Never thought about public pihole servers. So nice of those folks running them.

I don’t understand how you’re saying you’ve stopped self-hosting VPN and are still using tailscale. Are you using their SaaS service? Does that allow you to set your own DNS? Do they have speed limits? Are they zero-logs?

Kudos to not naming it.

Yes, because till University, you’re trying to learn something new. And the best way to learn is by doing.

At work, all you’re trying to do is save money (for the corporation). Best way to do that is to reuse, recycle.
