I hear that all the time from my Bible thumping mother

Looks like they had it play the game.

Can confirm am in Texas and family are ghouls

Not when you are working in a CLI

Link shorteners have absolutely been useful when you need to go to a long URL on a entirely different device you can’t copy a link to easily.

I’ve used them to make it easy to get to scripts.

You would likely need to build a NAS with a HBA (Host Bus Adapter). I’m not aware of any low-end NAS systems that support SAS

Jokes on you, I don’t drink coffee

Grayjay is just plugins for everything, so if you want to add a new platform you can make it

Here is my install script to set up Ubuntu since it has a bit of extra steps for privileged ports https://gitlab.meme.beer/-/snippets/1

The VM is a 6 thread 16gb

OS is currently Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (cloud image which is lightweight) just running a very simple docker engine install using the script (plus a few other options since I script the install)

The load averages as of this current moment are 0.12, 0.15, 0.10 so not even a full thread is being used.

I let the container run unmetered on the CPU and memory.

I can provide both the compose and my install script (which is on the GitLab instance) if you are curious.

I run GitLab with docker compose and watchtower, all the updates are automated and have never caused any issues for me.

That being said my setup uses about 7-8gb of ram.

Privacy also doesn’t exist when you have the entire website being indexed

I’m also a firm believer in you don’t need to freely give up your data

Didn’t Elmo muskrats tunnel end up causing more traffic?

I got a home server with a Nvidia Tesla P4, not the most power or the most vram (8gb), but can be gotten for ~$100usd (it is a headless GPU so no video outputs)

I’m using ollama with dolphin-mistral and recently deepseek coder

My point being I don’t want to update that sort of stuff that can be automated.

Naw I mostly do it for my own personal shit, can’t be fucked to update Plex 3 times a week and so on with other homelab stuff. Everything production is tagged with gitops version managed kubernetes manifests

Edit: should also mention I build quite a bit of the software being deployed

I run latest with watchtower on so much shit

It wasn’t in a markdown format, also I’m on jerboa

The ) at the end of the url is breaking it and sending me to a 404 page
