I love the fact that (until now at least) they have everything as separate services, so “stock” opencloud only does file synching tasks. Works better for me than Nextcloud the last few years.

Are you limited by compatibility on the side of the controller/appliance?

I currently run a Dell Wyse 5something, that one’s low power but passively cooled. Total silence for Home assistant and related services.

I had good results with SFF (Small Form Factor) machines, mostly Dell Optiplexes. More space inside while manageably small. Usually a lot of them around as former leasing machines.

Or go the much cheaper way of standard rig + head tracking.

People who pre-set their rice cooker. Common in Asian countries/cultures.

Same here, separate disk mounted at /docker

Can you post your fstab?

given the criticality of the stored data I would rather stay in Windows than risking data loss.

That’s what a solid backup strategy is there for. Which has nothing to do with the OS, so get into it.

Linux is also awesome at work, if your workflow allows for it. Unfortunately, I cannot see the CAD/CAE world switching over (or rather bizarrely, back) to Linux anytime soon.

Seconded. Works really well for me.

They all will do that, some more, some less. It’s to stop them from sticking in position.

Oh fantastic… That’s another 5 services to test drive.

NAS

Depends on what your plans are, an actual NAS-only machine or what develops into a general-purpose server. For the NAS part you’d only need a few services like FTP, SMB or whatever you want to run.

Those are easily configured on the command line.

Yeah. Unfortunately a known problem, even if the cause isn’t always clear.

Checked your journal?

Ah, well. I only remembered something about a week.

C523 by any chance?

Possibly. Which model?

So what’s the floor here realistically, are they going to lower it to 30 days, then 14, then 2, then 1?

LE is beta-testing a 7-day validity, IIRC.

Will we need to log in every morning and expect to refresh every damn site cert we connect to soon?

No, those are expected or even required to be automated.
