  • Thanks! I need to look more into what the power implications of 8 drives is - they never spin down, so I assume they are a non-trivial portion of my power consumption.

    That said, I’ve been considering upgrading to something recent and low power anyways. It would be a good opportunity to sneak in some useful features too,

    • Maybe the possibility of transcoding a video stream
    • USB3 (not a huge deal)
    • Non VGA display (useful, for when connection issues arise)
    • Audio jack (I could use navidrome jukebox mode!)

    Which the old hardware wouldn’t support without adapters, cards, etc.



    • Server - Desktop Tower

      • Build - Intel server board & CPU based on old serverbuild naskiller guide
        • OS on SSD
        • ZFS ON 8 6TB DRIVES, YIELDING ~36TB of storage, recoverable with up to two failed drives
      • Runs (via docker)
        • Navidrome (webui used daily @ work, dsub on phone, feishin on desktop)
        • Jellyfin (used almost exclusively locally on my TV, occasionally to watch with friends on web)
        • Nextcloud (used occasionally, mostly backs up password files, etc or to share. Thinking about replacing.)
        • QBitTorrent with glutun VPN
        • Audiobookshelf - used frequently for audiobooks. Occasionally for podcasts. Often more convenient to use antennapod/pocket casts on phone for active podcasts)
        • Kavitas - used seldom. Thinking about stopping. I like using obps on my rooted kindle to access my library.
        • Changedetection.io -watch some sites for new products, etc
        • Kiwix (local wikipedia copy I use shortcuts in FF locally to search for things)
        • Homepage (local links I use on local machines to my services)
    • Raspberry pi

      • Adguard home & unbound - block most garbage for any traffic from my home

    Thoughts - I’m considering downsizing. I don’t really need all that much space, and it can be a headache at times. With drive replacement costs on top of power (~$320 a year) I consider either going to a vps or downsizing to what could run on a small compute like the n100 or a raspberry pi5, etc.





  • This doesn’t make sense to me. If you go through history class, you don’t have verifiable proof of nearly anything, you have a textbook. I’m not questioning the existence of the first president of the US, the civil war, ww1, etc. No first party sources ever came to verify them to me. Maybe I question if something played out exactly the same, but I trust big events happened.

    So why specifically is the holocaust a myth? Or does 20% of the population just think all history is made up, and the holocaust denial is a symptom?



  • 36 TB server:

    • Nextcloud (a little heavier than I’d like considering something that’s just filesharing)
    • Jellyfin
    • Audiobookshelf
    • Kavita
    • Authentik
    • N.eko with protection via authentik (rabbit clone so I can watch things with friends even if it’s not on jellyfin)
    • Homepage so I can remember everything -_-

    Raspberry pi:

    • Adguard home, which router pushes all traffic dns through
    • Mopidy - hooked the pi to my speakers, can start playing via web interface. Don’t love it, but it’s working.
