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.

NTA, but prices are ASS more often than not. Whether you want to use a mini PC or workstation as a server, both are expensive relative to what they're worth, as well as what they would have sold for a year ago.

Still worth taking a look, just gotta keep in mind not to encourage faggotry.

I have a gay little tapo camera that I'd like to run, but isolate from the internet and my lan. What's the easiest way to go about setting this up so that it's isolated but accessible?

I have a router that uses openwrt, and I tried putting it on its own interface but couldn't get it to work. I didn't like having to connect to its WiFi network on my phone to view it.

To sanity check AI recommendations, does this make sense?
>need ability to manage distributed services/loads across devices on local network, some MacOS/Apple Silicon some Linux (notably NAS will be Linux when I scrounge up $800 for a minisforum)
>doing research and model building on TBs of financial data, so having a job queue and distributing this across machines is important
>distributing any relevant state or shared runtime data stuff is also important

Basically I might have a list of tiered priority jobs similar to 'niceness', some can't be interrupted, some can be patient background processes and yield to higher priority jobs. Since I have multiple machines some sort of job-network-manager-scheduler-queue thing would be nice, and I assume this must exist already? And then there's the container / linux VM issue.

I was debating going back to OpenWRT from IPFire because of how much better OpenWRT implements Cake SQM... but then I thought how hard can it be to port it
...30 minutes later, picrel achieved

Is it just the GUI ported, or did you replace IPFires CAKE algo with an LLM generated one?

Bdrs usually have a quoted lifespan of 20 to 30 years, though some people report that they are unreadable after as early as 10 years. Generally they cost about a dollar a disc which is very affordable. However if you buy something like a 12tb hdd, assuming ~20gb per movie and a formatted capacity of 11tb (11.17 but we'll drop the decimal), that's 563 movies on a single drive allowing not only a significant physical space savings but resistance against rot (when using a proper file system) and allowing you to stream your whole library from a central computer anywhere rather than being tied to a bluray player. Of course this only makes more sense if you're going to have a large amount of movies considering drives like that go for 200 to 250 used right now (less than half the price per movie versus discs), if you're only going to have a couple dozen up to maybe a hundred and you don't want to stream then yeah discs are an economical option.
>>
>>110030895
*Discs are an economical options so long as you don't mind testing and possibly reburning every decade or so to be safe, or just potentially accepting the loss from rot.

you should fork ipfire. i'll make the logo.

Thank you for the break down anon. I am mostly thinking about shows that I probably won't rewatch for a long time but don't want to completely get rid off, like some of my Rowan Atkinson collections or obscure wrestling matches, stuff that I don't want to keep on my NAS but don't want to delete out of autism. The rot is definitely a big concern, but at the same time, I have a very sizable DVD collection since my college years well over a decade ago and they are probably fucked at this point after moving cities three times.

has anyone tried using a self-hosted email server only for archival purposes? like, I have a couple email accounts with different providers that I send/receive from, but then move the messages I no longer need to my mail server where they can't be read by the providers anymore. Is this retarded?

can someone verify If I am a retard with using gpt 6.1 sol to setup p much everything on my homeserver? I got my old ass alienware out and and put Ubuntu LTS on it and the razer laptop. I got SSH setup across my macbook + main PC to access both devices. I then got chatgpt to setup the entire *arr stack for me and setup my vpn on the torrents + a few of the *arr apps. Shit just werks with watching whatever I want on my apple tv downstairs thru Jellyfin. I have a few tiny local ai models on the alienware since I have a 3070 + 1080 inside of it and run local TTS for Skyrimnet on it.

Just use cloud services ffs. You don't need a home server. Use commercial services that actually have security and updates and accessable anywhere.

CAKE has been integrated into the Linux kernel since kernel 4.19 and IPFire has been using it for QoS for almost 5 yrs now. I added the same script that OpenWRT uses (github.com/tohojo/sqm-scripts) and had the LLM glue it together. It hooks into CAKE the same way stock QoS does, and as long as stock QoS is disabled it just werks.
>>
>>110034264
it's worth sanity checking the setup with a different LLM and getting it to spit out an architecture diagram and documentation, but otherwise you're probably fine. don't expose it to the internet if you're worried. i've done the same thing and you don't even need a frontier model for it to work. don't be stupid with passwords, set up key auth.

Flash storage was expensive even before the AI boom. Unless they make a breakthrough that results in cheap production, it's never going to be viable for the commoner.

Appreciate it, ya I did public key auth and verify any commands it wants me to run that require sudo/admin privileges, it asks me to run it myself which I don't mind. I'm gonna change the keys regardless once I'm done setting things up. I tested the server with only outbound connections being when I grab stuff on seerr, should I swap that to only be on my main PC and then transfer files over Ethernet to the server pc instead?
