sundaylab

She is still making amazing music. Have been on her concert in Amsterdam last week, and man, what a show. She knows how to entertain.

Second that. Been with them for a year now. Good price and performance.

I was debating between getting myself a NAS or some PC to setup my homelab. I decided for a PC as it gives me more freedom to install and personalize it the way I want.

At the moment I'm running FreeBSD with jails on a Q920 with an i5 processor, 16 GB of RAM, one internal SSD with 512 GB and 2 external USB SDDs with each 1 TB which costed me around 300 Euros.

Seems more than enough for the services I want to provide to myself which are the following.

Navidrome > serves all my music locally and remotely.

Zabbix > to monitor my servers

DNSMasq > ad blocking and local dns

gitea > repo for code and other docs

Transmission > torrenting

Radicale > webcal and webdav

Photoprism > local photo gallery

Vaultwarden > Password manager

SearXNG > search

HAproxy > to serve my public content easily to the web

Mastodon

Emby > local media server

And I run a Linux VM on bhyve to serve 2 tools that I was not able to make work easily on FreeBSD.

Besides that, the node replicates some data from my VPS as a backup solution.

And I can't complain at all. That PC is doing its job just fine. No need for any rack that uses huge amount of electricity.

Same here. I'm using mainly FreeBSD on my servers so docker is a no go due to lack of support. I have to stick with Photoprism for now as it offers a install without docker and it does the job for me. Anyhow, I'm not happy with the trend that most FOSS projects today limit the deployment on docker and do not offer a way of a plain install on you *nix system of choice.

Thanks for the tip but I'm not sure why I would choose a desktop client over Navidrome itself. I usually have the browser open anyway. But maybe I'm missing something useful by using an actual app?

I settled with Navidrome. It solves 2 use cases for me. Due to being web based it can be used by any PC or mobile device with access to my server. Additionally it supports subsonic which allows me to use a native android app (ultrasonic) and have music on the go. I don't use services like Spotify.

Nice one. Downloaded and will try it soon. Using Ultrasonic at the moment so eager to see differences between the apps. Happy new year by the way. ;)

I jumped onto the FreeBSD train a year ago and needed some virtualization tool for my job. A started using bhyve and must say that I am quite happy with it and don't plan to move to any other tool soon. Not sure how it compares to other tools performance wise but it does the job for me.

I enjoy being here. I already forgot Reddit and only stumble on it occasionally when it appears in a search result on DDG. Keep strong Lemmy!

Lucky them. In Spain the standard is 7%.

Da liefen doch heute einige Sketches im Ersten. Jetzt verstehe ich warum. :)

If I would have been asked to choose one really useful piece of software on Windows it would be Agent Ransack. I use it to find strings in a bunch of files, even compressed ones. I believe it can do much more but I use it for this purpose on daily basis. There's a paid version but the light one is free and does all I need. https://www.mythicsoft.com/agentransack/
