Cross-posting this from Lemmy world where it seems my post coming from piefed.ca is not federating.

This is something that seems to happen randomly to my little RaspberryPi 4B homeserver, like once every few months maybe.

What happens is that out of nowhere (meaning I didn't make any change to config or installation) I cannot reach any services I host on it (i.e. Jellyfin, Anchor notes...). I cannot access it via SSH at all, connection keeps timing out.

Ping however gives a signal. I can see/hear its running and doing something, since I hear the external HDD working. It is running headless and I have no monitor and/or keyboard I could connect.

So far my only way out is to just switch its power off, which is obviously not good for the hard drive. It has happened now like half a dozen times over the past few years, so I am wondering what a better way is to handle this. This was on RPI OS and now its happening on DietPi, so seems not related to the OS version.

I tried sending a shutdown signal via SSH but that also just times out, so how do I get it to shutdown properly?

Secondly, what kind of logs could I look at or start collecting to make sense of this?

This might have been an issue in an earlier version, I haven't checked this for a long time.

If I go to my saved/bookmarked stuff, I can see saved posts just fine but going to the comments tab it show no content.

If I log in to another client or the website, it is all there though, so just an issue displaying that.

I am on piefed server, so maybe something to do with a Piefed update? Just a hunch.

I have started moving away from gmail and have started exporting my older e-mails via the takeout option. This generates .mbox files. I don't really use any e-mail clients on my computer and do most of my e-mailing on my phone, so I don't have a way of viewing/searching those files.

Therefore I was wondering if there is any selfhosted option for some kind of e-mail archive/viewer with decent search function that anyone can recommend? Specifically something capable of handling those .mbox files. I found a few projects that sounded promising, but they seemed either dead, weren't setup for selfhosting or could only connect directly to the mailboxes. So I thought I'd ask here if anyone has experience with this, maybe some recommendations?

Also open to alternative approaches what to do with those files. I just would like to delete these mails from gmail entirely, but that requires I can search them with as much ease as I can on gmail with a local option.

Thanks!

In addition to the bug mentioned here with sorting posts in multicommunities https://lemmy.world/post/48917983

I just found another bug with multicommunities, I have one with just 2 or 3 communities making up the multicomunity, and if I browse it I see maybe 10-12 posts, then Summit tells me there is nothing more to show. If I however click on the individual communities I see they got much more content than that.

Will be travelling to Japan later this year and found out about these workshops in Tokyo where you get make "your own" modded Gameboy. Guessing modded refers to being able to choose custom shells and buttons, not so much to anything else there might be (I am not very knowledgeable about Gameboy mod scene).

Looks super cool, but is very pricey. Around 55.000 Yen for different courses, so I am a bit on the fence for booking it or not.

Anybody here have any experience with these? Would those be "normal" Gameboys you need cartridges for?

Edit: found a video of one, just in case someone is interested seeing how it goes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjHSz8goaZ8

I have been using the app filters option to remove some posts I don't care about that are recurring, which is a nice feature.

There are however two problems with it that are sort of related, I don't seem to get it to work filtering combinations of words? E.g. I can filter for "hello" and "world" but when I make a filter for "hello world" it doesn't block anything. Is there a certain way you need to define those or does it just not work?

And since I can only do single word filters I have now the issue that I filter posts I do not mind actually. E.g. by trying to filter "hello world" with just "hello" I am also filtering "hello you". But whenever a post got filtered it does not tell you which filter was applied, it just says "this post is filtered because of a custom filter", or something like that.

Could that message maybe write out the word it filtered so one can see which filter got applied? Since I had wrong posts filtered I am now often checking, which post is behind the filter, but thats kind of removing the purpose of the filter.

From the Emudeck discord:

@everyone Hey everyone, apologies for the ping but since this is deemed as critical to the security of people's devices here, I will have to. Cemu (The Wii U emulator) was recently compromised by a malicious attacker using a known developers account, this compromise took place from May 6th to May 12th, and introduces malware that is known to steal passwords, SSH keys, GitHub tokens, and likely more they are not fully aware of at this moment. We recommend anybody who is on Linux or SteamOS to go into the EmuDeck app, Manage Emulators tab, Cemu, and click Reinstall/Update, and make sure the hash of the AppImage (Located in Home/Applications, right click Cemu AppImage, go into Properties, Checksums, and Calculate the SHA256 hash) matches the non-compromised version provided by the Cemu developers, if you have used Cemu from the dates I have mentioned, and the SHA256 hash does not match what is listed, assume your system may be compromised if it was ran. If you are on Windows, MacOS, or used the Flatpak version, you are not affected by this malware. More information regarding this attack can be found here. https://rentry.org/cemu-security-psa

The specifically affected packages were:

Cemu-2.6-x86_64.AppImage

cemu-2.6-ubuntu-22.04-x64.zip
