I remember many years ago when Scott Adams started going on about affirmations. That was the first hint of his descent into lunacy

Been over 30 years still don’t know

Perth?

True story - I moved from Scotland to Perth when I was 6. A few months later I visited Tranby House, one of the oldest buildings in Perth at around 1830. I remember thinking to myself that our house in Scotland before we moved was older than that (circa 1800)

I prefer Lemmy over Mastodon for the same reason I preferred Reddit (pre-APIpocalypse) over Twitter (pre-Musk) - the ability to subscribe to specific communities with similar interests. Try as I might in Mastodon with selective subscriptions to certain posters I still find myself scrolling through stuff I have no interest in hoping for a nugget of interest.

You guys REALLY need preferential (aka ranked choice) voting

1. Electric Mountain bike - i am over 50 and had not rode regularly since my teens. I borrowed a MTB from a friend last year and struggled to make any progress until I picked up a secondhand e-MTB. Since then I have been averaging around 150km/week and my stamina has notably improved.

2. PC - been a PC guy since 1989 and could not picture life without one. I’m an inveterate tinkerer and have built and rebuilt dozens over the years. I currently have a gaming desktop dual-booting Ubuntu and Win11 and a laptop running Ubuntu plus a couple of servers.

3. iPad - for years I was an Android guy but a couple years back I traded a spare laptop to my niece for her iPad (she wanted to learn coding) and was blown away by the user experience. Since then I have gone all in with iPhone, apple watch, and an old Macbook Air.

I use calibre to manage my collection. Calibre creates a folder per author and a sub-folder per book. I also have separate Calibre libraries for fiction, non-fiction and comics.

Wow I am not in your league

I am currently migrating from a dedicated docker host to a proxmox host with multiple LXC containers.

old host - 23 docker containers, 128GB system drive, 4TB data drive

backup server - 1 docker container, 1TB disk

proxmox - 3 LXC containers, one of which has 3 docker containers. 500GB system drive, 4TB media drive (not LVM)

The plan is to migrate the loads on the old host to the proxmox host. I also have another 4TB drive coming with the intent of setting up a RAID with 2 of the 4TB drives.

Max is not just one guy. He is an amalgamation of road warriors remembered in legends by the post-apocalyptic societies they helped

Home assistant is high on my todo list right after i set up my new proxmox host

Currently running

ooh i like the idea of the proxmox cluster

Yeah that one is way OP. My 4yo celeron NUC 8GB with 128GB SSD and 2x4TB external drives is ample for everything I throw at it

EDIT - there is a Ryzen 5 option in that page for 350 would be ample

deleted by creator

A low end celeron NUC would be best. I have one that has been doing the heavy lifting for my home services for 4 years

Do you have a link to WD or other sites selling old HDD’s?

Sorry just re-read your post. So the router they supplied does not have this setting? What make and model is it?

Do you have a modem? You should be able to configure port forwarding in that

Interesting. I might be able to go back to hosting on my server for inbound only. Thanks for the tip

Yeah that is my current mail provider but the self hosting bug bites deep
