Twinning with the set up, I like the data being separate from the server. Synology NAS + Thinkcentre has been great. Finally got round to setting up tailscale too and now I can access all me services when I'm out and about.
The self hosting rabbit hole is deep and never ending.

T'was a folly idea where I wanted to try and use the M1 Mac for doing some nice transcoding with Plex in real time, but it has just been a complete pain. Instead, I have this lovely old think-centre thing from eBay, which absolutely covers all my needs.

I find myself longing for a like βreadingβ platform. That is Storygraph + readwise reader + audiobook server + notes/highlight aggregator + epub hosting and syncing.

My mac mini network mount has failed for the last time. Gonna move the remaining containers over to my thinkstation linux box this weekend.
I am putting this out into the universe and search results: Do not use a mac mini as a home server if youβre mounting data from a NAS. Itβs not worth the faff.

It's this bizarre faustian bargain with social media platforms. On the one hand connection, entertainment and many other things. But there's always a cost alas.

Finally on the home assistant hype. Not for a lot of things, but having the hallway lights turn off when i press play on the Apple TV in the evenings is great.

A faux command line asking if the user wants to "execute deal now" with the discount code: THAT_DISCOUNT_WEEK
Finally sorted out a black friday/cyber weekend discount for my Terminal Training course.
66% discount with THAT_DISCOUNT_WEEK on the "Master package" - terminal.training
38 videos, perfect for anyone who was faced with "just open the terminal"

Hrm I think I'm gonna try setting up Coolify on a raspberry pi before the end of the year.
I want to self host stuff, but I am lazy and want a groovy dev experience. Feel like it should mix well.
