Yet I wouldn’t recommend anyone skipping it

Yes the first time I bought it for my kid it was basically free, and I think I got mine for like 10€

The day I hit a tree with my sports car or what have you, my family would certainly be less sad if they could keep the lights on, control the heating and so on.

It’s made so you could remove node red and still have basic functionality, but I really need to document a bit, share passwords, so a trusted friend could help them just in case

250! Wow, I thought I was already nuts with my 42 ZigBee devices + 10 reflashed sonoff over WiFi and my 8 cameras, doorbell etc… Let’s round up to 60; you are way ahead (oO)

I run everything on a single N100 mini NAS/PC with a remote slave backup NAS and the odd raspberry pi.

I’m more concerned about having to document in case I die than being able to keep all in mind, so far

I run docker within LXC too, but I have just a pair of docker instances with a collection of compose stacks on each. I really need stickers.

I should have a look at podman one day

Debian and docker. When you’ll have your local server, just go with Proxmox, which is based on Debian. On that you’ll be free to run any Linux flavour as an LXC container. As you are already familiar with it, that’s a no-brainer. The day you decide to play with a raspberry pi, Raspberry-Pi OS is also Debian with very little customisation.

I use owntracks with a free cloudaqmp plan for the mqtt broker. It felt safer than trying to manage my own mqtt open inf the internet. The data is decrypted and parsed by a dedicated node on my main node red instance.

13 in a docker LXC, most of my stuff runs on 13 other dedicated LXCs

I thought about that, I should write a manual so any friend who is in IT could take over one way or another; passwords are already ok with the takeover mechanism provided by Bitwarden

I’ve spent a few days moving a few services from LXC to Docker, then upgrading the better part of my LXCs from Bullseye to Trixie I can’t brake anything but had to restore a backup for the Pi-hole instance that didn’t like the upgrade. The scary thing would be upgrading from Proxmox 8 to 9. Things could really break.

How worn is that nozzle? I had that kind of issue once and the only solution has been to replace the nozzle

Never had Win10 in the first place. I did upgrade from 7 to 11 using the same product key. I would gladly run Linux but have yet to understand why no Debian live media would ever boot on my main laptop

You have to group the holes with the shape you want to substract them from.

Can’t touch this

WR147E.1 with about all the options added : ultrasonic sensor, radio link, magnetic sensor and a pair of stainless steel wheels spikes.

After 2 years I’m still very happy with it

Worx Landroid, there are unofficial API bridges for MQTT and I’m pretty sure HA too.

Mine is fully integrated in my NodeRed home automation

Alone in a tent, that’s a very different definition of self hosting. ⛺🌌

Joking aside we’re spending a few weeks of camping under a tent and having a Ubiquity access point that covers half the camp site installed in our spot is really convenient to keep the whole family on the home network with Wireguard.

Even the kids come to ask for piHole on the go. So here we are a few countries away, all connected to my Proxmox server, with a full access to the music library, Jellyfin and our twice-daily SMBSync backups to make sure our pictures won’t be lost.

All I can hear is the Mary Poppins song 🐧🐧🐧🐧
