I bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 from my GF like 6 years ago for $50. She of course upgraded her phone. I replaced the OS with LineageOS and slammed the ability to boot from ISOs over USB onto it. I now use it as a backup way to boot from ISOs over microUSB->USB-A in many different forms. It’s not as fast as I can get with better USB thumb drives, but in a pinch, it’s there for me! I know this isn’t exactly me writing code here, but I had to unlock the boot loader, replace the OS, root it, make sure Google Play worked on it (that was a touch of hacking, but again not my code), and stuff like that. So it’s a legit device as far as Google Play can tell and all that! Also the S4 has a removable battery so yay!

Yes this is self hosted related because I use these ISOs for server stuff, be it Proxmox VE OS install, OPNSense, or even firmware bootable ISOs (although those I probably should have on a dedicated thumb drive that doesn’t require a battery to live lol).

What exactly have you tried to do to address your nextCloud problems?

How exactly can they tell I’m even looking at it without clicking anything at all? Like I know websites have that ability, but to what extent does eBay pass that info to sellers?

Mind linking me to some that you like please? :)

If you or anyone knows a good alternative source, please share! I was actually seriously considering a bunch of stuff from them in recent history, and now I’m glad I didn’t! But now I have no idea where I can find drives for good prices (HDDs SSDs whatever).

;DDDD

Any chance you called this project/effort “OpenSSH” themed? 🤔 you know… porting 22 and all that ;PPP

NO that generation of CPU is NOT WORTH IT! Generates too much heat, uses too much power. I bought a Dell R720 for $60 about a month ago and it would blow this system out of the water.

I’ve been self-hosting my own websites for over a decade, and while the hug-death of the “slashdot effect” can be real, it is a statistical anomoly and a absurd as a rationale against self-hosting. It is actually cheaper ($ wise) to self-host with equipment you already have. Certs are $0 with LE, everything else is just setting up systems (websites) on equipment you already run and pay for. It is a lie to say that that’s somehow more expensive than $14/mo.

If someone chooses to pay for hosting elsewhere, that’s one thing, but don’t sell the lie that it’s cheaper. It’s not.

As for the 100k/day unique traffic, that depends on the website served. If it’s a fully static site and your setup is tuned, yeah you can actually handle that.

It’s always been a home server.

I am not familiar with the details of how Proton is packaged or anything like that. But I would speculate this is unlikely to affect Proton, and so far I have not seen any negative outcomes from removing this package. Proton or otherwise, at least so far.

If you care about capacity over performance then IMO you should explore consumer SATA SSDs. At the capacity per device you’re seeking you’re going to be spending more going with SAS for that level of capacity.

I just looked at one of my lower priced sources of second hand SAS SSDs and it’s over $200/ea (USD) for 1.6TB and in contrast the NEW 2TB SATA 2.5" SSDs from well known brands are about $120/ea (USD).

Also, unless you plan on using interfaces at or greater than 100gbps (as in NICs/equivalent) then you really will see zero value in going with SAS SSDs at all (unless PLP is a hard requirement for you, of course).

Slap TrueNAS on that and go fasssssssssst IMO ;)

Also, why no back pics and internals, etc??? CMONNN POST FEEET SERVER PORN XD

Microsoft loves Linux because they can make money with it. That’s it. This has NOTHING to do with them having any interest in replacing Windows (Desktop or Server) with Linux to ANY capacity.

Their Azure ecosystem relies HEAVILY on Linux, and they also sell many Linux offerings in many forms (be it visible, or under-the-hood-hidden Linuxy things). So that’s really where “Microsoft ❤️’s Linux” comes from. They’re signalling they know Linux has market share dominance in the server space, and are trying to seem approachable instead of extremely-hostile-with-litigation.

As foor “Why do Linux people talk so much about freedom?”

It goes far more beyond just the adverts aspect. As you may (OP) already know, Linux gives you flexibility in changing anything in ways Windows simply either cannot, or does not (by design). Sure, the adverts stuff (Windows start menu adverts lol) is a legit reason, but it’s nowhere near the only reason.

Frankly I’m not the least bit surprised this Xbox advertising bs happened. If Microsoft is prepared to put adverts on the lock screen and all over the place in Windows BY DEFAULT for many editions, then this is barely a stretch for them.

That being said it is a dick move to do for a console ecosystem. As if it was even actually warranted anyways. CoD has so much brand awareness it’s pretty much Coke, advertising is just a reminder, not new information.

The CPU is not going to be adversely affected by the airflow change at all. Even at 100% usage that airflow is plenty for that heatsink for the CPUs that even can be installed in that.

Yes.

libreNMS is the tool I use, and it connects to systems primarily via SNMP (use v3, do not use v1 or v2c).

Did you forget what subreddit you’re in? This is /r/selfhosted not /r/hosted

Go set up your own VPN already, this isn’t the place for this, despite people in this sub likely having something to say.
