  • Cuban doctors have restricted travel rights for this very reason ... people become doctors because the education it's free and it's still s prestigious career.

  • I keep waffling on Proxmox. Sell me. For or against.

  • The one factor that no one seems to have mentioned yet that is key for many of us is LEARNING ...

    It's a great way to learn virtualization and containerization

    I use it exclusively to run Linux containers, it makes it very convenient to backup and restore as well as replicate environments.

    We are now migrating our lab at work away from VMW

  • That's exactly what I have, and that's exactly what I wanted ... DARN ... oh well. I guess it's nice to have the document sync as well

  • opencloud - I migrated from nextcloud. Screenshots and docker-compose-compose.yml included

  • correct, it also has the benefit of allowing my IP to change without impacting public or private access.

  • I do something similar I use Pangolin (Which is an EXCELLENT project) as a self hosted alternative to cloudflareD tunels. I host it on a public VPS and then thru it tunnel web traffic to my public resources, that way I don't have to expose my IP or have a static. Then I also use netbird as an overlay network not only to access my servers remotely but also to "join" two sites via a VPN (Backup server at my mom's)

  • Is it better than NC?

  • where to move for cheap VPS?

  • This is bad news .... I also host my Pangolin ingress node on Ionos .... Can you let me know what you pick?

  • when both sides do it, then it becomes ilegal ... there's no point in cheating if you don't gain an advantage.

  • Watch them try to ban raspberry pi now ... like they did with the flipper

    If Obi-Wan taught us anything, is that there's always a bigger fish ... it just sucks that the bigger fish it's Rupert Murdoch and not the SCOTUS

  • Help me figure out the way to scale laterally?

    Jump

  • Interesting, thanks for sharing.

    Any clue what the power draw on the disk array is? I did some basic measurement with the kill-a-watt and a spinner takes about 6-7W where as an SSD takes about 2, the price difference is too much for my use case tho, performance per watt per TB, I'm better off with 1 single disk (or a mirror pair) of 6 TB in spinning rust.

    I'm not particularly concerned about data security since I'm syncing evrything 3 ways. Whenever one of the drive fails I'll consider it a "surprise disaster recovery exercise" XD

  • Appreciate your input. K8 is on the roadmap. Currently on portrait using pangolin as a tunneled proxy.

    Eventually plan to migrate from Joomla in LXC to a docker swarm load balanced by pangolin.

  • Questions about DAS

    Jump

  • It does but there's a lot of other stuff connected that I can't unplug. I ended up getting a kill a watt and since the server has redundant power supplies I checked by unplugging one at a time.

    I'm using 168W on an R430 with 2 E5-1220's and 128 G and 8 spinners.

  • What else should I self-host?

    Jump

  • I don't trust oracle at all. The guide uses them because they're free (It includes a business generator so that oracle doesn't reclaim your box)

    I personaly went with IONOS because they have a 2.99 plan with unlimited bandwidth which is great for pangolin as that's routing traffic for my "media" box

  • "Source code file"

    Jump

  • not the same thing at all, but there's already been a couple of pretty high profile "prompt injection" malware cases out there.

  • Host a pangolin reverse proxy on a free oracle cloud VPS! It's super nice to redirect online traffic to a LAN resource, that way you can share your home lab with friends and family without having to forward any ports or loosen your security posture.

    I also highly recommend this suite of tools for downloading and streaming legal media via torrent because I would never endorse piracy.
