Duke on every platform! Almost 😅

#dukenukem #duke3d #duke64

@ironicbadger I might be on endgame already.. though that’s a dangerous thing to say out loud.

Unifi networking, mini PC Harvester (k8s) cluster (3 nodes), longhorn CSI, backup to unraid + Backblaze, Tailscale, 2.5/10G. Opentofu for IaC.

It just works. Supports upgrading better than own-rolled k8s. Failover.

How's hosting with #cloudflare going for everyone? 😏

@simendsjo Why not a cluster? Harvester/k3s or eve Proxmox would help you expand horizontally and then the metal just becomes a resource you can expand/shrink/upgrade as you go along.

Asking everyone:
Is there a complete guide on how to install, register and use
@signalapp without ever having to connect it with a phone number?

(Closing in on the old 'iPod touch is the safest phone there is' way of thinking...)

@digitalkrampus These days, after going docker stack, Unraid, proxmox, Nomad and now k3s, I feel like you’re on to something.

My only concern would be updating each container’s packages etc.. managing that might be tricky. I suppose you could use cockpit or something and bake that into a template. Making a HA cluster with proxmox is also super easy and the backup server works a treat.

You’re honestly helping me convince myself to go back 😅

@gary_alderson Thanks! Yeah I had heard that this was a possibility and perhaps something I’ll look into in the future. I didn’t mind splurging for a 5 pack on the kickstarter though.

I’m hoping my node count will be less than that number so it wouldn’t matter anyway 😅

@Drooopy27 @tuxedocomputers Interesting! I’ve left it mostly stock and haven’t had any software issues recently. The battery life seems to have improved for me, after some initial settling in.

It’s not great but it’s better.

Would I buy another? Probably not, to be honest. Was it worth what I paid? Yes, I think so. The specs are great and the customisation that Tuxedo provided was great. Perhaps there’s room there for improvement regarding what items affect battery life more.

Finally getting around to connecting the #jetkvm units I ordered ages ago! They’re slick little things and I’m impressed with the lack of fuss.

Got this one connected to my #NAS box below it.. will probably connect the others to a couple of my mini PCs and eventually a Mac Mini M4 for inferencing. Bonus is that these trigger the video out which can be tricky for some boxes if there’s no display connected.

Another old school game for the collection! Super happy I found a decent copy of GTA 1 on eBay.. this seems to be in pretty decent condition and with the maps too.

There goes another #unraid instance 😄

Killed 2 servers within a month of each other. My new main instance is still going strong with 220TB usable, so these smaller ones aren't really needed anymore.

That, and this particular unit is a 4U 80cm deep monster chassis that is loud and takes up a ton of room in my office. The newer unit is racked so I can get rid of this one finally..

Another “big” box to the collection.. RollerCoaster Tycoon! Loved this game, and still play it and RCT2 to this day. Almost slept on this one but the feelings just the cover brings back are incredible.

The specs are a laugh as well..

@Drooopy27 @tuxedocomputers Fair enough! Are you happy with the Stellaris? I guess you went from 14 to 16”?

For me I think 16” is too big these days.. I carry mine around a lot and want something small.

But good to know that you liked it and stuck with Tuxedo anyway.. I’m excited to be getting mine.

Placed an order for a @tuxedocomputers InfinityBook, finally, after a ton of deliberation 😄

Took a moment as I wasn't sure if I was going to grab a Macbook or this, as I'll always eventually need a Mac for a complete workflow. That being said, I prefer Linux for a lot of things and I'll probably not be using it as much as my primary work machine (MBP M3 14") that I use daily.

The InfinityBook looks awesome, has great specs and was an incredibly good price (not least when compared to the Macbook).

Has anyone got one of the gen 9s? Are you running the Tuxedo OS on it or did you throw something else onto it? I'm considering using Fedora.

That’s that then. #selfhosted

@ironicbadger Thanks for the many hours of great listening. It’s been the sole podcast I’ve kept on with, and so this will probably mark the end of podcasts as a medium for me. There’s very little that’s as cohesive and interesting as Self Hosted, and few hosts that seem to work this well together.

Sad I didn’t get to make it to any of the meetups but who knows what the future holds.

Cheers!

Almost done wiping one of my older #unraid servers.. Time to pack up the older hardware in favour of the new box. It's.. pretty slow though 😅

#homelab #nas

Haha, this is hilarious. Medium is one of the worst offenders too imo, considering they publish so much, push for high SEO scoring and then subject the reader to this..

Google is fighting Nextcloud by harming our Android app. Nextcloud now has less functionality than Google Drive. This is clear anti competitive behavior. https://www.theregister.com/2025/05/13/nextcloud_play_store_complaint/ https://nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-android-file-upload-issue-google/

@mr_daemon Haha, I must’ve missed that one.. But yes there’s something to be said for the artwork and effort that went into big box releases.. or even the lack of effort (resulting in quirky designs that make them even more desirable to collectors today).

Just regret not keeping more when I know I had quite a collection. Hindsight right?
