The only issue is not having a simple backup interface and feature in general. Has this been addressed yet? How are snapshots with ZFS on Incus?
It’s almost like the whole customized apps to fit into the GTK framework concept creates too much added work and needs to be rethought.
I don’t understand why someone should choose any GTK variant when they’ll have to refactor and rewrite their application every few years.
After decades of user interfaces and internet access, we’re making things worse rather than better.
Someone at Microsoft realized that hardware will speed up, hiding the fact that the OS is getting bloated and riddled with code that doesn’t directly benefit the user.
The value Windows provides isn’t great enough to deal with this state any longer. In fact, my experience shows it’s slower and just as buggy.
We have technology available to improve experiences, let’s not mix it with profit incentives for once.
They’re basically the same as regular, but the wattage rating (usually called tdp) is lower.
Correct. Micro-ATX is the smaller version of the larger ATX and still larger EATX (extended atx). Your old case probably fits micro atx if it’s not OEM. You can populate it with a mb, cpu, ram, ssd, and power supply (don’t need more than 500w for your use case) and eventually move to a nicer case like that Node if/when you fall in love with the hobby. My Rpis are collecting dust since switching to a low power server.
It’s a whole different experience when general advice applies to your hardware vs the Rpi ecosystem. Many more options. In 2024, ATX offers no real benefit over the smaller form factor beyond better heat management for high power builds with spaced out components.
And a correction: node 304 supports 6HD, the 804 supports 8
I would recommend getting a “forever” case like the Node 304. You won’t regret the purchase and you can use for any future upgrades. It stores 8 (correction, 6) 3.5 drives, so you can add on as you grow.
Find a used a motherboard like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/235546915389?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=GP45S9r5R6-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=uaLd2h3oTQO&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
With a cheap GE (low power version) AMD processor and 16/32gb ram and whatever nvme ssd you can scrounge.
It will cost you maybe $100 over some alternatives, but you can use it for years and keep upgrading as you go.
Most Dell and OEM parts won’t work on standard cases, FYI.
If that were the case, the scientific method would not exist.

I’m isolated from this I suppose as I still use a separate line for upload. PD delegates and opens ports. What CIDR ranges do you use?
The xz backdoor hidden in precooked blobs would like a word with you.
To add to this, here is a tutorial with video that goes into the permissions. One of the cockpit modules has had an update, so make sure you bump the version number.

I replaced a TrueNAS install with this and haven’t been happier. It was such a bloated resource hog for what an LXC and a podman/dockge install can do.
Learning.
Run SCAP tool with a STIG baseline.
Just be careful as DNS and federated requests can leak your real ip even through the CF proxy.
It still might. Redox is a microkernel based around L4 architecture, but not formally verified.
The problem for me is portability. Flatpak, Snap, Appimage, docker, podman, lxc, they all do the same thing, but they’re splitting the market into “servers” and “desktops”.
We need a portable container runtime we can build from a compose file, run cli or gui apps, and migrate to a server with web app capability displaying the UI. There are too many build targets, and too much virtual market segmentation.
Nix tries to solve the issue, but the problem is you have to use Nix.
How do you mean? IPv6 in OPNsense is working fine.
You don’t need to delve into networking too heavily at first. I recommend ProxMox as the most beginner friendly platform. It’s open source and based on Debian 12 underneath. That means that updates won’t hit you until they’ve been run in the wild for a while. This is what you want for a server.
It has a free backup server you can use to take automatic backups, and it can run virtual machines, lxc containers, and docker can be installed on an lxc or vm and you’re golden. If you install docker bare metal you limit yourself to docker.
The new SDN functionality also lets you make self-contained networks that isolate your vms. Couple with this opnsense eventually, and you can make a nice public setup and not worry too much about east west security.
Racknerd has some pretty good discounts here and there.
This is what I was think also. Just let the host rproxy the requests and just map the dns to the host in opnsense.
