Ahh. Thank you for the info! I too was in that group who did not know! Can’t wait to see what the final picture comes out as!

For those not in the know, what is Canvas? I do not recall seeing this last year.
Two users and a handful of service accounts. I use it so I have a centralized user authentication system instead of managing multiple individual user accounts.
I tried a couple of LDAP solutions out there; Windows Server AD, Open LDAP, Samba4 in Debian, TurnKey Solutions LDAP before finally settling on Zentyal. It has a nice to use web GUI and can work in conjunction with AD RSAT tools that I have installed in a throwaway Windows VM for when I need more granular controls the web GUI can’t do.
All my Debian VM’s and laptops connect to Zentyal AD via SSSD.
I just cannot find a use case for Nextcloud. I have gone as far as installing it and sync’ing it with my LDAP for user auth and sync pictures from my phone to my NAS. All the other features are just a big ole m’eh for me.
This has just been my experience, so maybe I’m missing something that would just make it all click and make me not live without it. So far though, I’ve spun up and spun down an instance 3 times and never missed it afterwards.
Did you have to go through with surgery? I had a Heller Myotomy with Fundoplication and after the liquid diet recovery period was over, it was the best decision I ever made. Naturally, I have to avoid dry foods or stuff like bread that turns gummy when I chew it as it is difficult to swallow. Also had to stop eating cow & pig because of the texture of the meat when chewed.
If you haven’t thought about it, let me go ahead and break your heart now… we will never be able to go to outer space because we require gravity for the food to slide down into the stomach. Not that I could ever afford to go anyway, haha.
My man! This makes me extremely happy to hear some progress for you on this. I have achalasia (throat doesn’t squeeze, so solids gets stuck in my throat) and I still remember to this day after 5 years, finally getting a doctor who was a diagnostic genius for my specific condition and almost cried in the office when she knew exactly what it was. I was at the point of having lost 20 lbs in a few weeks because I could not get food into my stomach. Five years later and I can eat almost like a normal person; just takes a sip of water with each bit of food & soft food.
While it may not be similar to your issue, I know what it feels like to have that emotional weight lightened.
Would love to see future updates and wish you nothing but the best on your journey to some semblance of a normalcy.
Zabbix for agent / snmp based statistics.
Uptime Kuma for up/down states with a webhook notification into Discord so I get instant alerts on my phone when one goes down.
Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll give this one a shot. I think I tried it a few years back so it is time to try it again.
I love Home Assistant and have been using it for years. It just keeps getting better and better over time! With so many new features added all the time I have just started blowing away my entire VM of it and recreating from scratch to see what’s new. It’s a good problem to have!
Blue Iris in the other hand… just give me a damn version that runs on Linux natively and not some Wine bullshit.
That’s an error on my part, apologies. I copy/pasted and tried to redact my url from the APP_URL=https://bookstack.example.com section and ended up deleting the entire line; yay replying from mobile. :|
I currently use Bookstack on Docker in Unraid but the above docker compose snippet is from when I used a debian VM with docker installed on it to run my docker stacks.
Here you go, this is my docker compose. You can modify the pieces as you see fit.

I do have to be cognitive of bending over after swallowing something because I can feel it trying to make it’s way back up.
For about a year, I used a husband pillow behind my pillow so I would sleep upright. Eventually, I figured out what works best for my body which is basically just make sure I don’t eat at least 2 hours before bed.
Other than that, the fundoplication takes care of preventing stomach contents from coming back. Here’s a quick video!
Never hurts to get checked. See about having an enscopy performed and they can check it out. Another procedure is called a Esophageal Manometry. They put a thin tube up your nose and down your throat and make you swallow fluids to measure how well your esophagus squeezes or in my case, they said it spasmed and basically doesn’t respond as it hood.
I wish you the best.
I see what you did there and I am disgusted to say I love you for it. :D
First Dr visit was sometime in 2018 with surgery in Q2 2019’ish. I would have been 37’ish when symptoms first started coming on.
From what I’ve read, only 1 in 200,000 have it so it took multiple Dr’s to finally find one who said to me, “I was just at a convention last month and heard a talk about a condition like yours and just happens one of the top Dr’s on achalasia lives here in our city.” Few months later and I was scheduled for surgery and it’s been worlds better post-surgery. :)
It definitely affects my life every day with what I can & cannot eat (bread is a nightmare) but I take it in stride and drinks copius amounts of water with every meal.
Achalasia. My esophagus does not squeeze food/liquid and it gets stuck in my esophagus. Since the nerves in the esophagus are dead (paraphrasing of course) this then causes the top stomach sphincter to not know food/liquid is coming and to open up. Instead, (pre-surgery) food/liquid piles up on top of the stomach and I would have to hope the sphincter would open up and let food in. I had times where I could not swallow water as it would just sit at the entrance waiting to be let in & would have to force myself to vomit as it started to hurt.
Post-surgery (heller myotomy with fundoplication) my esophagus is effectively a slip & slide and I rely on gravity to be able to get food down my esophagus and into my stomach. The top stomach sphincter has now been cut open and never closes anymore. They then stitch part of the top stomach lobe to the sphincter/ esophagus junction area to prevent stomach acid from backwashing.
Even if space travel for the masses occurred during my lifetime, I will never be able to go to space because I rely on gravity to get food to pass through my esophagus.
I’m going to go a different route than your question. If you have a spare m.2 slot and room in your PC, you can install a m.2 network adapter. I recently installed a m.2 to 2.5gbe adapters in a Dell 3060 SFF as a proof of concept at home for getting Proxmox ceph cluster working over 2.5gbe.
Some extended stay style hotels will actually check you out of the room and create a new reservation once you hit 30 days so that, on paper, you never go past the 30 day mark.
I practice this same thermal battery idea as well with an extra tip of having a couple of fans on timers (sun up to sun down) that sit on the floor and blow the cold air up. It makes a significant difference, especially if you can sit a fan where the cold air from the AC falls to the ground.
