estevez, 1 month ago to proxmox

I made it and it went better than expected.

I have a single-node #Proxmox setup with various services in containers and a #HomeAssistant VM. For example, https://blog.randomplace.online/ is hosted there. I needed a #Widnows build machine to build a work project, so I decided to spin up a new VM.

I got 10 minutes of build time and my server didn't die during the build. You can see the CPU load of two builds. There is plenty compute power left to serve my blog for that one visitor per month. Also, the Home Assistant VM was not affected.

Need to mention that the node is an #ASUS PN41 with 4-core Celeron N5100 and 16GB of RAM.

I just moved my #HomeAssistant instance from #Odroid N2+ (aka Home Assistant Blue) to a #Proxmox VM. It was as easy as backup and restore, thanks to a VM creating script from here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/installing-home-assistant-os-using-proxmox-8/201835

estevez, 4 months ago to AdGuard

Set up #AdGuardHome yesterday.

I knew #Plex sends a lot of analytics from me to their servers, but I was not expecting analytics.plex.tv to be number one in the list of blocked requests.

Another surprise was 287 (for now) requests blocked to logs.netfix.com. Why it's a surprise? We are not using #Netflix. I have it pre-installed on my TV but not even logged in there. That's some crazy shit.

I tried to host a #GitLab on my #NAS yesterday. It was nice to see it working, but not so nice to see how it eats all available RAM. Then I discovered @gitea )

Tried the @Vivaldi browser. A good example of when "the more the better" doesn't work. Sure it is an IMHO.

Still very interesting. Having your emails and calendars integrated into a browser is a good alternative when OS-built-in tools for this are crap.

Now back to @firefox.

I’m running a #developer experiment. Please boost for reach.

When I say VS Code, what is the first word that comes to mind?

Please reply, but don’t peek at other people’s responses until you’ve done yours.

The biggest problem of #selfhosted services and #homelab is a bus factor. What if my existence will be interrupted unexpectedly? When my #Nextcloud will crash someday after that, my family will not be able to get their files and photos anymore...

I'm thinking about an external drive with all Nextcloud data periodically copied there. To be able to disconnect it by hand from the dead server and connect to any PC. But which file system should it have? FAT32 can be read on any system but has a single file size limit. NTFS is not supported on Macs, EXT4 is not supported on both, Macs and Windows... I mean, not supported out of the box...

Any ideas or solutions?
