Ok, I’ve completed the cycle of HDDs for my NAS and repurposed 4x3TB in a RAID 0 enclosure to my Mac, 1x2TB added “random vmdisks” to my proxmox server and still have 3x2TB disks in cardboard boxes now… should I get USB enclosures? Keep them there for “whenever needed” #homelab #homeserver

One of my #temperature #sensors, a #SNZB-02P, started disconnecting randomly. I was getting that 'checkin only every 6 or so hours' problem. Removed it and re-added it to #homeassistant about 20 times. Just did it again today and now it's functioning perfectly again. Gotta love it!!!

Repurposing an old computer into my permanent home server. Currently installing Debian to give it a new life.

This Week in Self-Hosted (28 March 2025)

@stalwartlabs grants, software updates and launches, a spotlight on #Posteria -- a #Plex poster management interface, and more in this week's self-hosted recap!

Wer seinen eigenen #Matrix #Synapse Server betreibt, sollte hier asap updaten! #HomeServer

Every day I come home and login to my #proxmox node. This is pleasing.

I’ve been backing up my spouse’s old Time Machine hard drive onto my new home server / NAS.

It’s taking days.

But the terminal output has been a delightful throwback screensaver of sorts.

I’ve seen “iWeb” assets; I had forgotten about that app.

I’ve seen a proudly pirated copy of Rosetta Stone.

This morning’s gem:

Does anyone know of a good MSP360 Backup Server Edition discount code for the #HomeLab crowd?

Woot...

* Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS server is up and running.
* Docker up and running.
* Syncthing up and running via Docker.

Now, off to physical therapy for correction of my self-induced folly, and then off to work.

Tonight I'll continue configuring the home server. Mostly this means reading up more on Docker-Compose, Docker itself, and figuring out how all this actually works, gets updated, etc. The whole container thing is fairly new to me, as a hobbyist.

#homeserver
#ubuntu

Tomorrow night I'll install Ubuntu server edition for my home server that will be built from a repurposed laptop.

I'm not sure what all it will be doing, just yet. I figure it'll be running an always on syncthing instance and pi-hole, for sure.

What are some other cool things that I should get setup on it?

#linux

After a year of deploying Docker containers on my home server with little to no documentation, I believe I need to review and audit them.

If you're into self hosting this is for you. I talk about my network setup and how I decided to host some services.

We have bought a PLEX Pass

I was always going to do it at some point, but their more than doubling of the price and the changes to remote play kind of forced our hand

I’m starting to feel that thing.. I have not enough NASes… I need a separate #NAS for family documents, photos and files and a separate one for #Plex, movies and TV shows. I don’t know why. Just… need… MORE SERVERS!

#TIL about #snac, a Mastodon compatible server implemented in C:

Kudos to the @slimbook team for this amazing piece of tech

It's the Slimbook Zero, a fanless x86 pc. Look how cool it is!! They assembled it really fast, really appreciate it.
