They’re generally highly regarded.

I sorta mean it but not enough to get into it.

I’m going to start using this

Sure and I know that you meant. But I also think that with a little creativity and compromise it’s also not difficult at all to get something that’s not that long and also easily said.

Even if they are finite, the number would be so impossibly large that for all practical purposes this would not be the case.

This has the same vibe as MySpace Tom being everyone’s first friend.

I was literally looking for something like this today, neat.

Obsidian. It can backup to GitHub or anywhere really. All the files are markdown and easily readable on their own. They don’t need to be opened with obsidian.

I’d make a Wilson but with a couple holes in it 😏

I use Portainer for this, though it doesn’t aggregate logs or anything. It just makes them easy to get to and read.

Why post this anti-Semitic shit

You don’t need a protectli, even an old optiplex should be able to handle opnsense and/or a pi hole. You would just want to have 2+ NICS.

Or if it needs to be low powered there are definitely other options.

Look, I never said you were wrong man. Clearly you probably have a lot more experience than i do. Which is why I said what I said. Because I personally believe Proxmox is way easier for someone who is a casual like me. That’s all.

Edit: Also, though it doesn’t really matter, I don’t use LXC.

I’m going to disagree with this. I’ve setup everything in one Debian server before and it became unwieldy to keep in check when you’re trying new things, because you can end up with all kinds of dependencies and leftover files from shit that you didn’t like.

I’m sure this can be avoided with forethought and more so if you’re experienced with Debian, but I’m going to assume that OP is not some guru and is also interested in trying new things, and that’s why he’s asked this question.

Proxmox is perfectly fine. For many years I had an OMV VM for my file server and another server for my containers. If you don’t like what you’ve done it is much easier to just remove one VM doing one thing and switch to some other solution.

It seems cool but it’s just going to be a big headache man. I would just spin up a domain controller and maybe some workstations to play around with.

I would check out serverpartdeals as they’re pretty reputable. But for any used drive, I would make sure that you have a limited warranty or at least some sort of return policy. Once you get the drive, run badblocks on it, which will check for… bad blocks.

Looks like jellyfin has an api. I’m sure that could be leveraged. Just would need to have a way to send over api requests. You mentioned JavaScript, but I could see this being done in maybe DJango instead if you’re familiar with python. Though the learning curve for Django is a beast in itself imo

Seems like you could just make a simple web page for this.

I had a less technical savvy coworker putting together a raspi for something, emulation I think. And he was notoriously cheap, he told me he got a micro SD from China for a suspiciously low price.

Well during this endeavor, he would keep asking me about random errors he was seeing. And I kept saying bro it is that cheap SD card you bought. He wouldn’t hear it.

Eventually, he tried out another SD card and sure enough, no more weird errors.

You shouldn’t do this. Why would you do this

.local is definitely local but it’s common for it to be used with mDNS primarily. To the second part of your question, yes that’s correct, since it will be reserved it will not be any public DNS server, even if it did look outside it wouldn’t find anything.
