Imagine hating chiropractors so much you have to downvote a true fact without spending a second looking it up yourself.

I recently learned that chiropractors in Switzerland are very different. They are all medical doctors and need to fulfill strict requirements so they can work as chiropractor. It is also a common thing here to go to chiropractors and I have never heard of any accidents.

Nice, glad to hear! If you get stuck, feel free to message me!

As I have no idea what level of knowledge you have in IT, it might be hard to understand. I try to keep it ELI5. Years ago, if you wanted to run software, you had to buy a PC/server, which meant you had to buy all the hardware for it. As hardware development continued, things like CPU‘s suddenly got faster and were able to handle multiple tasks at once. So people had to come up with ways to share this power between different software components. For various reasons, you didn’t want to install everything on the same operating system, to avoid compatibility issues. The ideas of Virtual Machines and Containers was born. The key difference between those two concepts is, that in VM‘s, you have a full operating system running the software. In Containers, you share the operating system base, but the containers itself are isolated.

So, docker is providing an easy way to manage containers. Since the container itself does not have that much overhead in terms of „blocked resources“, we can create one container per application we want to run. One for Sonarr, one for Radarr, etc.

Since docker is running on Linux kernels, is there a way for you to have a Linux server? Or could you maybe install Linux in a VM?

Agree with this comment. Use docker. In the beginning a little bit more complex, but if used properly, you never have to care about updating anymore. @OP if you need some help, I can give you some advice and my Docker Compose file.

Now do the same thing with Google Bard.

Can this be used to find a good seed and then use it on classic SDXL? Or would the results be different?

Clearly fake, as I see no Gentoo.

I‘d instantly subscribe if I‘d see you orgasm like that.

So I‘m a Synology user for years (currently a DS921+ with a DX517 extension) and use it mainly to store movies/shows.

For you here are some things that might be useful to know:

  • Consumer NAS are massively underpowered in terms of CPU and RAM. Both is needes if you run a few Docker containers. Especially the transcoding of media files is very CPU intensive.
  • using a very small „compute“ node, like an Intel NUC, takes care of this problem. I run all Docker containers on this one, while I use the NAS only as storage.
  • Consumer NAS are super easy to setup and also to scale, in case you need more diskspace.
  • I was never a big fan of Plex for various reasons. I use Emby and I‘m very happy about it. I also hears many good things about Jellyfin
