As a matrix user who is using the WhatsApp bridge. I’ll probably never see the ads anyways

This confuses me a bit, technically nextcloud is just a PHP script that only runs when you actually perform a page request.

If you don’t enable the Cron then it does even less than a normal install.

Depending on what services you want to give access with, I have had great luck with an ultra cheap VPS

Then I host my edge services on a container and use an ssh tunnel to the remote host which gives me an ipv4 and any port forward that I want.

For example I have my reverse proxy inside my network and my VPN server then I use a command like:

ssh -R 8080:localhost:80 public.example.com

Which would forward publicip:8080 to localhost:80

I use autossh to keep the tunnel alive at all times.

This is an ultra cheap way to get any ports you want and self host the whole thing. The remote VPS also doesn’t get any extra access to your local network and doesn’t initiate the connection so it doesn’t have credentials for your local network

Really I think we are going to see an increase in jellyfin uptake given the changes which is great for that project

But if you don’t already have lifetime and are paying monthly or annually then that price is also almost doubling

If you go with your option A, you could virtualize the windows install and run it inside of the truenas or other os using qemu.

You would still need to have enough drives for a new array, but that was always going to be the situation

It’s just from my phone. I have all the notifications off from the original app

I better invest in Coleman and the North face, I hear they are due for a boon soon

Or if you prefer docker

Proxmox backup server is my jam, great first party deduplicated incremental backups. You can also spin up more than 1 and sync between them

Once in a while discord signs me out and I have to do a bunch of extra sign-in steps on the official client. But otherwise I have discord, WhatsApp, Google voice, Google chat, Google messages (sms), Facebook, telegram, signal.

All the mautrix bridges are will made and robust

So, one thing that’s not clear here. Is the server and your desktop both at the same location? If they are I see no reason why you couldn’t just leave all the files on the server, have an NFS or Samba share then just stop it on the server and start it (over the network share) on your desktop. It would be functionally seamless, would require no effort to keep the files in sync, and would ensure your running things in the box you want.

Ha indeed, every room in the house is getting 2 faceplates (on roughly opposite sides of the room) with 4 Ethernet that runs each back to the server rack. Is every room having 8 runs right back to the switch excessive, you bet.

In my old place I had one faceplate with 2 ethernet, coax and phone to each room, but phone and coax is useless and I didn’t have enough Ethernet.

Bottom area:

• 2 mini pcs (proxmox)
• PiKVM and ezcoo switch connected to all PCs
• Couple of UPS

The access to the crawlspace isn’t great so the CrapRack ^tm had to be assembled in the crawlspace.

I agree with this, though I think a lot of people don’t differentiate between operating system containers like LXC provides and application containers like docker provides.

As an outsider I have heard everything is bigger in Texas, that seems to include assholes

Well just hold on there a minute, if they raise interest or charge higher fees on things that doesn’t disproportionately negatively impact poor people then it might be less predatory… And we can’t have that, we gotta keep punching those that can’t hit back.

LLM AIs think any sentence that starts with who what where when, why or how is a question.

Obligatory if you install HA on a raspberry Pi. Use the SSD option as you will wear out an SD card or usb key pretty quickly since those devices aren’t intended for constant writes from things like logging and generally don’t have any wear out leveling.

That is a respectable size and to you sir I can only say what any man can say in this situation.

It’s not about the size, but how you use it. ;-)
