I actually bought a ausustor NAS with the intention of flashing it with trueNAS or run headless. But tbh the OS does what I need rn with reasonable effort and I actually stuck the the stock OS. The backup options are not that great to use and with one press backup you can only save a single share at a time. So I am using syncthing for that.

Everytime I read some story like this I wonder at what point we are finally turning THEM into biodiesel?

I saw esp32 picture frames That fetch images via WiFi, but this would be a lot of DIY.

My personal favorite is using all already always on devices such as a wall mounted tablet and let them have a screensaver that rotates through is set of images that change regularly.

well we do because we r old and know that Audio CD quality is superior to MP3’s. But young people don’t even have a CD drive. TBH this is the best way to build your music collection on a budget. Buy original CDs off discogs for like 1$ and rip them.

CD without download code is a rip off.

And policy actually mattered :(

 

Being a noob and all I was wondering whats the real benefit of having a monolithic lets say proxmox instance with router, DNS, VPN but also home asssistant and NAS functionalitiy all in one server? I always thought dedicated devices are simpler to maintain or replace and some services are also more critical than others I guess?
