  • Docker on VM vs bare install on VM

    Jump

  • I know rebuilding containers is trivial, but updating a service in the UI is more trivial than that. I'm just trying to make my life as trivial as possible 😁. It seems like containers may be worth the little bit of extra effort.

  • Copying a response I wrote on another comment -

    Thanks for this - the one advantage I'm noticing is that to update the services I'm running, I have to rebuild the container. I can't really just update from the UI if an update is available. I can do it, it is just somewhat of a nuisance.

    How often are there issues with dependencies? Is that a problem with a lot of software these days?

  • How Americans responded in 1955 when the invention of the polio vaccine was announced

    Jump

  • I see it as a sign of health that people working with vaccines only use them when they are beneficial, and don't use them when there are reasons not to.

  • Google TV has a whole new way to show ads on the homescreen [Gallery]

    Jump

  • Remote adb (I think?) was a lot easier than I expected. I recommend changing these tv launchers as quick as possible.

  • What kind of hosting service will allow this?

    Jump

  • This was the first hit on proxmox vps.

    I have no idea if they are good or not, but this kind of service might be what you're looking for?

  • Pros and cons of Proxmox in a home lab?

    Jump

  • For me, pros are:

    • Fun to learn something new
    • Easy to test different systems. For example, I can play with different router or NAS software without having a separate computer around.
    • I've been able to create different "computers" that serve different needs and require different levels of security.
    • Currently, a cluster is probably overkill, it was a fun experiment.

    Cons

    • Updating all the different systems can be a pain. I could probably automate it, but I haven't made the time to learn it yet.
    • As a beginner, I'm throwing a bunch of parts together and hoping it will work. I should probably be more strategic in my implementation, but I don't know what to prioritize. I'm sure I'll have to start over in the future.
    • With the previous point, the storage setup doesn't seem very intuitive. I probably need to set up that better.
    • I haven't quite figured out backups yet. My VM backups all seem too big. I need to figure that out and automate it.

    Hope this is helpful.
