READ THE (temp)WIKI! & help by contributing:
https://igwiki.lyci.de/wiki/Home_server

/hsg/ is about learning and expanding your horizons. Know all about NAS? Learn virtualization. Spun up some VMs? Learn about networking by standing up a OPNsense/PFsense box and configuring some VLANs. There's always more to learn and chances to grow. Think you’re god-tier already? Setup OpenStack and report back.

>What software should I run?
Install Gentoo. Or whatever flavor of *nix is best for the job or most comfy for you. Jellyfin/Emby/Plex to replace Netflix, Nextcloud to replace Googlel, Ampache/Navidrome to replace Spotify, the list goes on. Look at the awesome self-hosted list and ask.

>Why should I have a home server?
De-botnet your life. Learn something new. Serving applications to yourself, your family, and your frens feels good. Put your tech skills to good use for yourself and those close to you. Store their data with proper availability redundancy and backups and serve it back to them with a /comfy/ easy to use interface.

What's the best cheapest and smallest PC I can get for a basic server? I'm assuming I can't go too small if I want to fit in a few HDDs in it.
>>
>>107900894
Depends how basic you want. A Pi with some usb3 externals can be used as a basic server.

Most efficient and smallest I can think of is Odroid H4 Plus, with a Jonsbo N2 case.
>>
>>107901014
I got Pi 4B+ that runs Pihole already, guess I could put it to extra use. Not really sure I want to use any externals though, even if it's just a dock for an internal.

Looks like an interesting combo at least.

I'm running an old 11 year old Dell Inspiron with i3-4005u and 8gigs of ram. Downloaded and played WoW just a few hours ago. Deleted this game because I'm not that type of person anymore, but still. I have about 50 tabs open rn. I've had 200 tabs open, as long as you manage it, it won't pose any issues. I can watch/listen youtube and do office work just fine

I can watch 1080p movies without any issues.

A month ago I opened Photoshop and worked with a large picture, it was laggy, yes, but it got the job done.

You can get a lot of shit done on even a 15 year old system, but very few techtards realize it. Especially if you have a desktop PC of that era.

They deserve to be constantly poor by spending shit tons of shekels on computer hardware that is never fully utilized.

One of the kids I managed to talk to in Wow during my 2 hour stay ran a rtx 4090, kek. Imagine having such an overkill PC for something that can run on any PC from 2005

15 years ago I had WoW and a yt tab open on an old ass celeron with 1,2 gigs of ram.

How the fuck is a 1998 game capable of generating collisions for any terrain and it just works on super old hardware?
Meanwhile Godot's trimesh is so slow it cannot even run smoothly on modern hardware (and also broken since version 4), while anything other than trimesh will cause the player to literally fall through the stage?

Can someone explain this?

>>107902860
Recognizable chink brands are cheaper on Amazon and such, but knockoff products are still much cheaper on the chink stores. I'm guessing it's because the bigger brands are more insistant on selling to Americans "the right way", so they go through the more acceptable channels that minimize tariffs. The chink storefronts don't care how much they have to lie in order to get an American sale
>>
>>107902976
Nah, not in this case. A digitized embroider on any of the chink shit sites range from high 600's to well over a grand. Meanwhile there are a bunch of brands you can't get on there (think Brother) which are demonstrably cheaper, and you can get them even cheaper if you buy Used. I'd love to find a machine that wasn't any obvious scam for significantly less than this price point but it doesn't exist.

i dont post usually, i rarely even browse /g/, but i did today and found out that you have some /ptg/ thread here in which you shill private trackers.
im not an oldfag or any retard of that type, so i despise those private tracker elitarists. also imagine using torrents in 2026?

- i breached a single private torrent tracker so far, didnt get the whole db or root access, only admin api keys (UNIT3D tracker security is kinda good, i cant do much with an admin account).
this allows me to leech all torrents freely, or upload malicious ones from any account i want. though i haven't done anything with this dump for quite some time already.
dont tell me those things are useless, please. i want to justify my wasted time on trying to hack into that tracker.

- i had an idea to reseed contents of that tracker to some public ones, but that would just be a waste of bandwidth and money.
one of PTs goals is to provide more bandwidth, and they do that by reseeding public torrents; PTs are built to deter leechers and freeloaders, and no one wants those people.

- [1] another thing you can find on trackers is some very niche content. this is something we would want to distribute, but how?
yeah, fmhy exists, iptv piracy industry is big too, no one has to use torrents anymore for watching their love island joyslop. but there is probably some stuff which can't be accessed that easily.
how do you even identify these? maybe build something like BTdig which would have access to thousands of PTs, from which people could request content to be downloaded, and then reseeded.

I'm trying to find a video AI that'll convert some clips I took into something more "realistic" & movie-worthy. Specifically: I'd like to convert the toy gun in the clip posted here into a real shotgun, but can't find a single framework that isn't censored.
I know I could probably just hit "generate video" and get similar results, but I wanna control the camera angles. That's why I'm basing this off of footage I took myself. Any recommendations?

I know. And people did access the hardware directly whgen they felt like it. There was no way to prevent that.
>- and people paid hundreds of dollars for this shit when it was released.
Yes, it was expensive for the time. it was also performant.
>unsurprisingly Acorn didn't sell very many of these "tubes".
It was too expensive for most people. It was used in the professional market but that was a niche market anyway. The 6502 second processor was perhaps the most generally useful wedge:
>The 6502 Second Processor used a 6502C processor clocked at 3 MHz,[2] a full 50% faster than the 6502 inside a BBC Model B, and also had 64 KB of RAM, of which typically 30–44 KB was free for application data (compared to as little as 8.5 KB on an unexpanded Model B in graphics mode, or only 5.75 KB with the disc interface).
A 50 percent improvement is not much, they should have gone with the 4 MHz version. In a different timeline, they would have upgraded to BBC Model C with both built in and at 4 MHz. Sadly, they chose to puch the Acorn Archimedes instead, which was very fast and even more expensive.
