  • Beelink ME mini is a NAS with an Intel N200 processor and support for up to 6 SSDs

  • Depends on the SSD. I've only ever had one SSD become read only, and I've seen a lot of failed SSDs.

  • SSDs dominant failure modes of catastrophic failure?

  • Need help getting domain to resolve over LAN

    Jump

  • I've got a similar problem at home, and I use a really straightforward solution: since the problem manifests on my pcs, I just add my services to the hosts file. It's particularly good when I'm working on my next cloud, because sometimes you end up with a lot of data moving back and forth, and you don't really want to hit your router to hit the outside world to hit your internal server when you don't need it. I just sent it to resolve my main services to the internal IP address, and the best part is that even when the internet is down and DNS isn't available, my services keep on humming away. I might not even realize.

  • Ideas for Hosting on a 2009 Netbook?

    Jump

  • The n280 is specifically limited since it's 32-bit, but low powered machines can be useful regardless. Two of the servers in my empire of dirt are atom d2550s, and I'm even able to run proxmox on them (since that model is 64-bit), but in terms of bare metal, they were able to run Matrix conduit, ejabbered, a nostr relay, and for a while my searx and yacy instances. (Though as I recall the cpus lack of instructions eventually stopped me from running searx on that hardware) I think I was even able to run invidious.

    If it's just for you, it would surprise you how much you can do with a very small amount of CPU power.

    Another thing that a machine like that might be useful for is a jump box. You can just put a very light distribution on it, and make it accessible to the outside world and one way or the other (secured of course) so you can hop into it if you need to do any remote administration.

    The one thing that I found when I was using stuff that was particularly low powered is drive latency matters a lot. If you are using an SSD for storage, even much faster processors end up spending a lot of time sitting there waiting for the spinning hard drive to get to where it needs to be so you can be a lot more efficient with less CPU power.

  • Conduwuit is dead, long live Tuwunnel!

    Jump

  • Runs on hardware that isn't a supercomputer.

    I'm using what it's forked from, conduit, and I've hosted my matrix homeserver on an Intel atom D2550 that's also doing like 3 other things. When I tried the same with synapse or dendrite, opening a big chat room took a few days.

  • Alternatives to Roku/AppleTV for Jellyfin Client

    Jump

  • I use Chromecast with android TV, it's about perfect with jellyfin, and if I were to domit again I'd probably spend the little extra for the 4k model even though my TV is 1080p (more horsepower). You can run a different homescreen to somewhat degoogle it.

    Probably not what you're looking for given what you've lined up here, but I live and breathe with it every day and it's great, and as an added benefit you can cast from a lot of services or websites as well.

  • What do you use for notes?

    Jump

  • Nextcloud notes is just my life now.

  • Tempo – An open source music client for Subsonic with Android Auto support, now with continuous playback, new codec support and more!

    Jump

  • Nextcloud music Also supports subsonic as a protocol, so clients also can be used with that.

  • Post your setup. no matter how uggo

  • The two top ones host invidious, searx, and yacy on one and lotide (what I'm talking to you on) and matrix on the other, they both have Intel Atom D2550s. The bottom one has an Intel Core i5-4570TE, and hosts basically everything else including my reverse proxy server.

    At some point I'd like to move to low-end ryzen embeddeds, because they are either as powerful or more powerful than anything I have and remain fanless, but one step at a time (and finding something that powerful that's inexpensive and scavenged from a roadside sign is tough sometimes)

  • The obvious point being that if they're not going to even run their own mail server, they won't run their own fediverse server.

  • "that's the great part -- you don't!"

    But Honestly, it'd be pretty damn cool. I wouldn't be too surprised to find they don't even run their own mail server though.

  • Beware Hollywood’s digital demolition: it’s as if your favourite films and TV shows never existed

  • Absolutely, if you care about historical works you should make sure that you have a copy that you control.

    A large portion of the things on my jellyfin are like that, because once they take away media ownership, and they can change or take away your stories at any time.

    And it replies "you're right! That argument has never been a part of package x. I've updated the argument to fix it:" and then gives you the exact same bleedin command....
