Nice I love it!!

I also have a “messy” setup like this, looking forward to 3D printing a case and then creating a cooling solution for it

Cloudflare makes it pretty easy and is free (or close to free)

My thoughts exactly, just ditch chrome

No, but not everyone is a regex guru.

If AI can write code half as good and fast as a regex guru, it’s going to increase the average dev’s productivity a lot

That’s why you write tests

I doubt anyone can write complex regex in ~30 seconds, LLM’s can

I wish AI was never invented, but surely this isn’t ture.

I’ve been able to solve coding issues that usually took me hours in minutes.

Wish it wasn’t so, but it’s been my reality

Your friends should know that you can see their photos if you wanted to though.

Same is true if they save stuff at Google etc. who every owns the server can see their media.

Unless it has E2E encryption

Thats nice but I wish it had E2E encryption.

I don’t like that I can see everyone’s photos that use my immich server.

Not that I’d look, but I can if I wanted to, and that’s why I only use my server for family

I think the answer is somewhere in the middle, and depends on your definition of “swimming”

Can a grown adult who can stay calm in stressful situations learn swimming well enough from a book so that he doesn’t drown the first time he jumps in a pool. Yes

Can everyone do that, definitely not.

It also depends on the activity, you can probably learn bowling from a book good enough to hit the pins and then get better from there.

You could definitely not learn to fly a helicopter from a book.

tl;dr It started with running Home Assistant for my smart home.

Eventually it became running my own servers to replace google & Microsoft etc.

Sharing my Homelab hobby, the interactions here are so much nicer

Consider ODROID

I run TrueNAS on mine

Not gona lie, I’m very tempted it’ll get me lots of Internet points, and definitely a few haters

Thanks. ODROID allows 4 drives with sata, it’s a really nice solution.

You could attach even more with using nvme

Thanks!!

It’s a 10 Euro fan controller, that I’m temporarily using till I can build my own with ESP32

Time for Pakistan to upgrade to and help develop Linux

Aux cables

Very much so, but I do enjoy gross overkill.

I’ll build them into a future case then they won’t be as overkill

The other HDD I have is a WD Gold, it’s definitely the louder of the two, both of them are ~5 years old. Now that I moved the databases off of them, they are quieter than my work laptop, so they don’t bug me.

But oh boy, it really did sound like a train yard at one point.
