The Docker documentation is pretty terrible, but it’s a decent start. Start by looking at docker-compose.yml files for the services you want to run and the write-ups for those.

Something nobody ever told me, that I had to figure out myself, is that docker-compose.yml files can be placed anywhere you want.

There are people who think insulin dependency is a choice.

Well, to be fair, I actually bought it to use as a desktop and upgraded it accordingly. Then a few months later I decided to build a Ryzen system. Optiplex got moved to server duty.

I bought an Optiplex 7050 SFF for $100 USD at the start of 2023. Upgraded it to an i7-7700, 32GB RAM, 300W PSU from an XE3 model (stock is 180W), and threw in a spare Nvidia K1200 Quadro for shits and giggles. Runs almost my entire suite of self-hosted applications without a hitch.

Fucking cowards erasing it

Hundreds of miles? I think you misread. They’re several miles away.

Also it’s a lot easier said than done to just up and move somewhere more convenient. I don’t have that luxury, and telling me to do so will get you a big fat “go fuck yourself” from me for being so insufferable about it.

Now move along and go bug someone else with your luxury conveniences.

Our society is 100% car centered. My kids’ schools are miles away from my house, my job is miles away, and you cannot convince me to ride a bike or walk when it’s over 100°F outside. Fuck that shit. I’m happy to take public transit, but any public transit available to me isn’t feasible because it would take literally 1.5-2 hours to get to work and back each way, which cuts down severely on my family time. And I can’t work from home either due to the nature of my job, which is maintaining the machines that build microchips.

Nah, probably somewhere Scandinavian.

Mmm, it tastes just like raisins!

Mine returns a 404, but on purpose. Everything I want internet-facing is behind a cloudflare tunnel on appropriate subdomains.

X for life

My kids have done this to me once or twice. I said “you should have told me three weeks ago when it started”

Yeah we got food right after.

IDK man, I had 20mg of the drinkable stuff last night that didn’t do shit. I’m usually easily headed to the moon with 10mg…

You’re old enough to know how to help out around the house in order to avoid this whole thing. My wife and I live with her elderly parents at the moment (currently house hunting) and we help them out around the house with whatever we can.

It’s meant for hot swapping, so you don’t have to shut off the whole housing. But yeah, the fact that it doesn’t turn back on after a sudden power loss is… inconvenient. Mine is stationed at my parents’ place (they have gigabit fiber).

I ran Merlin for a couple years on an RT-N66U. Eventually switched to Tomato and was much happier with it.

It died a couple years ago. Replaced it with a Unifi Dream Machine. No ragrets.

I don’t know what your budget is, but I recently bought a Sabrent 4-bay housing for ~$230:

It’s got USB-C 3.2, so transfer speeds are plenty quick, and each bay has it’s own locking door and dedicated power button for easy hot swapping. The only downside is that if there’s an unexpected sudden power loss, you have to manually turn each drive bay back on, and there’s no way to do it remotely.
