I’m neither, but I do have a very small homelab. I get to imagine the spaghetti mess of cables in my virtualized system.

Wow thanks, this fixed the issue perfectly, and it was so easy for a beginner like me!
Fucking drives me nuts.
Mine returns a 404, but on purpose. Everything I want internet-facing is behind a cloudflare tunnel on appropriate subdomains.
Looking at you, Docker compose files.
Docs: “make a docker-compose.yaml, it’s so easy!”
Me: “How?? Where?? What’s the syntax?? ANYTHING AT ALL?”
Some corner of a dusty website only three people have visited in the last two years: “here’s the syntax you need to use for these specific use cases, and you can put it anywhere as long as it’s consistent”
Jesus Fucking Christ is it really that difficult to be a little more specific with this kind of thing? This is why I didn’t start using Docker until very recently. Their docs absolutely suck balls for someone who isn’t already familiar with it.
It’s meant for hot swapping, so you don’t have to shut off the whole housing. But yeah, the fact that it doesn’t turn back on after a sudden power loss is… inconvenient. Mine is stationed at my parents’ place (they have gigabit fiber).
3·1 year agoI ran Merlin for a couple years on an RT-N66U. Eventually switched to Tomato and was much happier with it.
It died a couple years ago. Replaced it with a Unifi Dream Machine. No ragrets.
I don’t know what your budget is, but I recently bought a Sabrent 4-bay housing for ~$230:
It’s got USB-C 3.2, so transfer speeds are plenty quick, and each bay has it’s own locking door and dedicated power button for easy hot swapping. The only downside is that if there’s an unexpected sudden power loss, you have to manually turn each drive bay back on, and there’s no way to do it remotely.
I have an Optiplex 7050 SFF that I dumped a few hundred dollars worth of upgrades into for shits and giggles when I ran it as my daily driver; then I built a beastly Ryzen system to daily and shunted the Optiplex over to server duties, replacing the previous server (14 year-old HP Elitedesk 8100 SFF).
The Optiplex runs everything I can throw at it with ease, far better than the HP could have ever hoped to do.
As for using old laptops that a big ehhh for me. Find yourself a used NUC instead.
Yes, but that costs money and I already have the laptop in my possession. Which is the majority reason why old laptops are used for this kind of thing.
Mother fucker
I just moved my .dev domain to Porkbun. Why couldn’t I have just waited another couple of days 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Sneakerheads are a whole different breed
God, what an insufferable attitude.
If it wasn’t for people intentionally breaking security of their things and fiddling around with their devices, we wouldn’t be where we are today in terms of features and security. A huge chunk of the features on smartphones these days stemmed from jailbreaking and root modifications.
I got myself perma-banned in a few subs by calling out morons for being morons.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That’s… Not a bad idea…
