I see what you mean, interesting. Didn’t really look at NixOS as a server os. I personally prefer using multiple compose files (in the process of migrating to k8s). I share resources too, like in your example, I just point to the existing DB instance, not create a new one for each new service.

May I ask what you mean by NixOS support? There’s a docker compose you could use in their repo…

I believe R-- stands for Readarr and G–R-- stands for GoodReads.

ansible can seem like just a fancy way to run shell scripts with extra syntax, but the real power shows up when you start managing more than one machine or need repeatable, “idempotent” (i love this word) setups. ansible handles state rather than just running commands, so you can describe what you want instead of how to do it step by step. it’s also easier to maintain over time, especially if your setup grows or changes. just add that new vm to the inventory list.

if you’re already comfortable with shell scripts and just want to get a few vms going, you could totally get by without ansible. but if you’re planning to do this more than once, or want to be able to rebuild things cleanly, it’s worth it, imo. it could save you a lot of headaches later on.

i use it at work, i manage about 40 vms in our pre-production environment with ansible. if i need to install a new package on all, it’s one line and one command (ran in a pipeline). if i need to change the settings for unattended-upgrades on the debian machines only, same thing.

however, our “production” environment is k8s and a handful of external services, and we use terraform to manage all that.

i guess it all depends on your needs.

They also have an API, I think a chunk of that revenue comes from there. Think 3rd party apps and services having chat bots, writing assistants, etc that use openai’s API.

Give easyeffects a try.

Oversimplifying it, Ansible playbooks are nothing more than some commands that should be run on a remote machine via ssh. Ansible knows or has modules for a variety of different package managers (apt, yum, etc) and automagically knows how to handle services or various config files.

It can get complex, but I think just the startup phase, until you have an inventory of remote machines, the ssh keys are in place, etc. I second the Jeff Geerling recommendation, his stuff is solid, both ready to use playbooks, and tutorials.

I would suggest to also look into cloudinit. Makes setting up VMs on proxmox easier, faster, more consistent, with users, networking, ssh keys, etc ready to use (by you or by Ansible).

I use a lot cd - (go to previous) or just cd to go home.

Do they make cardigans?

Yeah, I think coredns offers all the options you need.

This is like the Apple Business website, which only works in Safari, according to them. Used the User-Agent Switcher plugin, and the website/dashboard works just fine on Firefox in Linux.

This is a great addition to my home-lab, no more “free online convert” tools needed.

Am tot auzit și eu, da’… sursa?

Walking alone around the river bank, with a kitchen knife on my belt. I was “adventuring”.

I agree with you, but this was specifically about jellyfin.

I don’t think so, but don’t quote me on that. My machines come with a 65w charger.

A micro sized PC with an i5 and 8gb or ram can cost under 100€, and it’s way more powerful compared to a pi. Power efficient too. That’s what I used for a long time for my jellyfin server.
