I’m not sure if the person I replied to was thinking about this movie in particular, but it certainly came to mind when I posted that gif:
Also of note - if you’re using docker (and Linux), make sure the user is/group id match across everything to eliminate any permissions issues.
We are all domestic terrorists now?
Not really, but I can give you my reasons for doing so. Know that you’ll need some shared storage (NFS, CIFS, etc) to take full advantage of the cluster.
I hope that helps give some reasons for doing a cluster, and apologies for not replying immediately. I’m happy to share more about my homelab/answer other questions about my setup.
I dunno, Trump showed the world you can completely give up decades of hard won soft power in only two months, maybe China will think it’s cool?

I had some luck cobbling together a HiFiBerry with some speakers. It’s not the same thing, but it does show up like a streamable audio device.
It’s not super cheap though.
Those are beasts! My homelab has three of them in a Proxmox cluster. I love that for not a ton of extra money you can throw in a PCIe expansion slot and the power consumption for all three is less than my second hand Dell Tower server.
Well, obviously this is the result of [outside group of people I personally hate/am racist against].

Actually, with the drastic cuts to NOAA and science, how long before we’ll hear that the death toll is as large as it is because of DEI or illegal immigration?
I love mine. It’s great in handheld mode with Moonbeam/Sunshine streaming from my gaming desktop, and it shines in docked mode.
And it’s a very capable Linux desktop too if you want to go that route.
Sorry, I wasn’t clear - I use PowerDNS so that I can more easily deploy services that can be resolved by my internal networks (deployed via Kubernetes or Terraform). In my case, the secondary PowerDNS server does regular zone transfers from the primary in order to ensure it has a copy of all A, PTR, CNAME, etc records.
But PowerDNS (and all DNS servers really), can either be authoritative resolvers or recursors. In my case, the PDNS servers are authoritative for my homelab zone/domain and they perform recursive lookups (with caching) for non-authoritative domains like google.com, infosec.pub, etc. By pointing my PDNS servers to PiHole for recursive lookups, I ensure that I have ad blocking while still allowing for my automation to handle the homelab records.
This is overkill.
I have a dedicated raspberry pi for pihole, then two VMs running PowerDNS in Master/Slave mode. The PDNS servers use the Pihole as their primary recursive lookup, followed by some other Internet privacy DNS server that I can’t recall right now.
If I need to do maintenance on the pihole, power DNS can fall back to the internet DNS server. If I need to do updates on the PowerDNS cluster, I can do it one at a time to reduce the outage window.
EDIT: I should have phrased the first sentence: “My setup is overkill” rather than “This is overkill” - the Op is asking a very valid question and the passive phrasing of my post’s first sentence could be taken multiple ways.
I put my Plex media server to work doing Ollama - it has a GPU for transcoding that’s not awful for simple LLMs.
We’ll raise your credit limit by $1000 for every dead bird you find on the street and eat on video.
Hosting on the public web isn’t too crazy - start with port forwarding on standard ports (443 for sale/web) and add in a dynamic DNS address.
More than likely your residential ISP doesn’t change your IP that often, but Dynamic DNS solves that problem before it hits. I use Cloudflare, but mostly because I’m lazy and haven’t moved off of them after their most recent sketch behavior.
Every part of the whole “51st state” plan is insane, but to admit Canada as one single unit is absolutely fucking bonkers. It’s literally bigger in square miles/km than the United States. It would need to be at a minimum 10 states (one per province) but would probably benefit conservatives if they split up some of the more conservative provinces into more states.
I use Bitwarden coming from LastPass. It’s great for me and my fam.
I bought a car that comes with a “free” 300k/30 year warranty, but only if to do oil changes every 4k miles or 3 months. Maybe this guy has something similar?
For me, I may try And keep it up for a bit, but driving to one particular dealer every 3 months just to get a ridiculous warranty that will probably never actually pay out isn’t worth it.
