Only use jellyfin. Have a list of things want to update… but it works for now.

Yes that is a laptop usb cooler used as supplemental placebo cooling. Also a pc fan I have propped up against the hard drive feeding into the pi.

Can’t recall last time used the ps4 or switch. But they’re there

    was going through some old pictures and decided I’d post a retro setup. pretty sure I took this picture with my android g1…so 2008ish?

    here is a pic of one of my first selfhost setups. I began selfhosting for music and have never stopped. this iteration was stuffed behind a bar that was built in to the basement at my old house

    the old fashioned was custom built and was running some flavor of windows server. the one on the floor was the first Linux server I had run to do something useful…torrents and subsonic IIRC. I pieced that server together with random parts, mostly donated from old family PCs. two UPS units were on the bottom rack of that metro shelf to battery back the servers and the tomato router out of frame.

        oh, she was. found her several years earlier in a trash pile at an office building I was working at… with the protective plastic still stuck on the screen.

        she met her doom against a concrete floor during a studio shuffle… sad day.

    Seven Raspberry Pi 4’s and one Pi Zero, mounted on some tile “shelves” inside some IKEA furniture.

    Ho ho ho

      What do you do on that many pi’s that could not be done easier on 1 x86 box?

        They’re fanless and low-power, which was the primary draw to going this route. I run a Kubernetes cluster on them, including a few personal websites (Nginx+Python+Django), PostgreSQL, Sonarr, Calibre, SSH (occasionally) and every once in a while, an OpenArena server :-)

          I did a 4 node Pi4 kubernetes cluster for about 5 years. The learning experience was priceless. I think most notable was learning to do proper multiarch container builds to support arm and x86_64. That being said, about half a year ago I decided to try condensing it all into two n100 nuc-like clones and keep one pi as the controller. For me and my apps and use cases there was no going back. Performance gains were substantial and in this regard I think I was hobbling myself after the educational aspect plateaued.

            Actually, as a web guy, I find the ARM architecture to be more than sufficient. Most of the stuff I build is memory heavy and CPU light, so the Pi is great for this stuff.

      This one gave me the confidence to post my setup, I salute your bravery (°_°)7.

      The best of luck with your future insurance claim.

        I know!. I watched a few videos but I’m affraid I lack some programming skills for now. Or it would requires that I have a few days off and be in great mood haha. I have a few computers that would probably work, what I would need is someone by my side to help me troubleshoot whatever wont work. You guys already made me switch to linux which I wouldnt even have considered a few years back lol. Super happy, but it’s always a challenge when something stops working. For example, after the last kernel update, I spent hours trying to get bluetooth to work again, and in the end buying a new adapter was the only thing that worked. But one day I will self-host too!

        The meat and potato’s of my homelab. It is just a Proxmox cluster hosting some things.

        Most of it is pretty ordinary as I just have a bunch of Debian VMs hosting docker compose. Ansible for deployments and I am working on moving completely to NFS for storage.

        The two notable things I have is a virtualized NAS running TrueNAS and a virtualized desktop running Linux Mint. The NAS has a pcie sata controller passed though with two SSDs and the desktop has a RX580 and the USB controller passed though. The tower seen in the back has both of those currently and what you can’t see is my monitor, keyboard and mouse.

        Here are the services I’m running:

        • Jellyfin

          • For movies and live TV
        • Nextcloud

          • my files and the Nextcloud suite
        • Matrix

          • not really used much
        • my website (it is not much at the moment)

        • I’m using busybox http

        • Graphana and Influxdb

        • monitoring. I will eventually move to something else.

        The hardware is the follows:

        • Dell precision tower with a i7-6700k and a standard ATX power supply

        • Lenovo think center with a i5-8500

        • HP whatever its called with a i5-8500

        Also the router and my AP (not in picture) is running OpenWRT with vlans
