Chrome Remote Desktop works well and doesn’t require a monitor (at least not one that’s turned on).

Maybe when IPv6 is widely available, we’ll stop seeing this… For now, it sucks, but IPv4 blocks are expensive. Price or external IPv4, something’s gotta give.

I upgrade as soon as new versions come out, I like living on the edge :) if something goes wrong, there are backups.

As for musl, I haven’t mentioned it since OP wants to run containers - and in that case, musl doesn’t matter. And for running programs natively, many are available as packages (with any musl incompatibilities already resolved). But yeah, if you venture outside these limits, you can definitely run into issues with musl.

Everybody is so quick to suggest Debian (and it’s a fine choice), but Alpine is great for such things, as well. It’s blazing fast, frequently updated, has most packages you could ever want in a server environment (not that it matters if you’re planning on using containers). I’ve been using Alpine for years as my docker host, and not once have I thought “man, I wish it was debian instead”.

That is a complete overkill. You don’t need a cluster of Proxmox nodes for personal hosting. And you certainly don’t need a 24-port switch.

Ironically, all the variations you mentioned do not have the gift part, except for the letter ‘n’ :)

They all originate from Johnathan, which in Hebrew means, literally “God gave”, the “Joh” part meaning “God”, and “Nathan” meaning “gave”.

Possible - but I’ve been listening to audiobooks instead of reading for years now. It’s much easier to find the time to listen to an audiobook rather than sitting down to read a book. Don’t see it changing in the near future…

I’ve tried twice to listen to it so far, but no luck. I am planning to try again, though. I got further on the 2nd attempt.

Yeah. And you can also develop skills in jail - doesn’t mean we should be throwing people in jail indiscriminately and then argue it’s for their own benefit so they can learn new skills.

No, it absolutely uses a Linux kernel.

Exactly. The issue is with the source of electricity, not with the AC itself. Not to mention that leading by example is nice, but it’s not always the best course of action. An individual avoiding AC is a drop in the water, and not going to save the planet, while suffering immensely. Hell, even if every single individual stopped using AC at home (which isn’t even close to reality), that wouldn’t have a significant effect, compared to what corporations, factories, etc. are doing.

That’s a really nice setup! I run most of my things on a docker swarm (the docker hosts are VMs running on Proxmox hosts), though that was an overkill in retrospect, and causes more problems with no practical advantages.

The range of services I run is similar to yours, but I also have a bunch of services for personal finance (beancont/fava, as well as automatic importers and such), a more extensive media setup (with qBitTorrent and *arr apps), a gitea server, and a vaultwarden instance.

That awesomebudget looks nice! I’m more of a beancont/fava guy, and too invested in my setup to try something vastly different - but it sure looks like a cool option for people starting out.

What about kbin?
