I can proxy for you.

They don’t charge me tax and only $15 shipping. Then shipping within the EU is 15 euros max

I only really listen to them while driving 3+ hours.

My mind needs some engagement or I’ll fall asleep.

I listen to Dark Net Diaries because I’m interested in Cyber security, this American life because of the varied stories, wait wait don’t tell me because it’s light hearted, and car talk because of the nostalgia. I’m planning on grabbing a prairie home companion because my father listened to it, makes me think of him.

That being said. Dark Net is becoming a little more dramatic than I’d like, but it’s still good content.

I have only a few services. I could probably downscale my server.

• AdGuard DNS

• Tailscale and Zerotier

• Open Media Vault

• Jellyfin

• Uptime Kuma

• Graphana / Prometheus

• Torrent/seed box

All on Proxmox and mirrored ZFS 2 x 20TB

For backups I use FolderSync and the default backup for windows. Super lazy, but I don’t want to be the IT support of the family.

You can try out Headscale. The self hosted/open source version of it.

I use enterprise drives because they’re cheaper and more reliable.

Got some 4TB enterprise NVMe for 150 each. They only had 3TB written, basically brand new.

You can try DoH to see if it is working.

It’s port 443 so it won’t get redirected by their filters.

Android uses DoT so maybe that works. Assuming that they don’t block port 853.

Try the encrypted DNS option to see if they are blocking all DNS providers or just certain ones.

You can also setup your own encrypted DNS on a VPS if you’re feeling brave.

Some enterprise grade stuff still use BIOS. But I haven’t messed with one for over 6 years

PiHole and then Minecraft actually all through CLI.

Imagine my shock once I found out about screen and SSH. I didn’t need to walk back and forth between my computer and the server.

I didn’t touch a GUI for about 4 years.

I love this copy pasta

Cries in SFFPCs

Hard to tame a 5800X3D in a 8L case

I use unifi for wifi because honestly I like the dashboard.

But… for anything layer 3, I’m using MikroTik. It’s extremely powerful without actually running your own router, and many are Poe as well. I’m running a RB5009 which is overkill for me.

I chose RB5009 because it runs DoH, ZeroTier, sub interfaces, it’s rack mountable, passively cooled, poe capable, and can handle up to 2.5gb symmetrical. I just wish they had 2 x SFPs so I can use a full 10gb WAN

Nah, their software is so infuriating to work with. Even when an SSD it falls to load video clips. Often I have to restart unifi protect on the console or even ssh into it to do and apt update/upgrade to get it working again.

Self hosted might be a little better, but I’m not holding my breath.

Don’t fuck with other people’s equipment…

I’d say it’s more effective to snap a photo and upload it right away to social media than it is to take a photo, download it on an app, then upload it to social media.

Unless the shelter has a dedicated social media team, DSLRs or mirrorless would be overkill for the average person.

I’ll read up. Thank you.

No worries. My offer will still stand. I want to help others into this addiction.

Hey, if you would like, I buy from serverpartdeals all the time, I can be a shipping proxy for you since I have access to both US and DE mailing systems.

Bought 160TB from them about a year ago.
