Strit

True. I’d have to get the €11/month box for it though. It’s cheaper to set up one of my Raspberry Pi’s with an external drive I already have. I just need to figue out how it’s best to transfer and dedublicate the data. :)

I think what I need to do correctly on my homelab this year, is setup off-site backups. I currently only backup to seperate drives and machines inside my own home. I need to setup something at my parents place to take weekly and monthly backups.

Other than that, my media server needs a bigger storage drive.

I’m an old man. I don’t get the appeal of a terminal with hardware acceleration and all that fancy stuff. I use what the distro/DE came with.

I’m not really able to answer that question. My unit is in my attic, so I can’t hear it anyhow. I haven’t noticed it overheating during the summer though.

I don’t replace anything. I just install what I need from the beginning.

And yes, I run Arch btw. :D

Honestly, they are all good options. I have the Aoostar prebuilt option for my home server/NAS and I have had zero issues with it. 2 Sata SSD’s and it’s sipping around 12-15W power onload. about 10-11W on idle.

I had the Odroid H3 before that, with same SSD’s, it was using about 11-15W under load and about 8W idle.

This is really good advise and it all boils down to one attribute. Patience.

Don’t get disheartened when something does not work the first time. Take a step back. Look at what went wrong and then try again, hopefully without doing the same mistake again.

Learn the basic tools of Linux and Bash/Posix. cd, ls, cp, mv and rm are some very basic tools, but it is what we use 80% of the time.

You can easily add photos to an album from the web interface. But still not from the Nextcloud android client.

I’ve been using it for a couple of years though. I have not really had any problems with auto-upload from my android phone. So not sure if that “not even alpha stage” comment is correct. I don’t know the state of it on iOS though.

I hate how docker made it so that a lot of projects only have docker as the official way to install the software.

Just so we are clear on this. This is not dockers fault. The projects chose Docker as a distribution method, most likely because it’s as widespread and known as it is. It’s simply just to reach more users without spreading too thin.

I got the N100 version of that one for my homelab. Works really well. But if the idea is to expand to a business at some point, it’s not gonna be powerful enough.

Yeah, but not immutable and not with waydroid pre-installed.

I think I want something bazzite-like and probably immutable but more media focused than gaming, with already working and set up waydroid and remote control support.

Likely does not exist yet. I haven’t heard of one, at least.

You mean like an APU?

David might be using git’s send email, which he likely has set up to have a max line length of about 80, because that’s what the kernel developers require.

Good point. sudoe + TAB is 1 keystroke shorter than sudo -e :)

How is sudoedit shorter than sudo -e ? :D

I think my most obscure one is “Homarr”, which as the name suggests is a dashboard designed with the *arr suite in mind, but I use it as a regular dashboard for my regular services.

It’s europe. All electronics are more xpensive here, often because of import taxes/VAT etc.
