Another once in a lifetime recession

But what if I only care about sleep. Nothing else matters but sleep

When you don’t want your neighbors to sell

This is why I always wash dishes as soon as I am done with them. Sure it might take longer but it means that they always get done.

Yea that is what I have been doing. Although it seems the smaller sizes are not a great deal anymore and I am hesitant to buy anything larger due to the long rebuild times

Had a hard drive fail my main zfs array. First time I have experienced a disk failure so it was a bit worrying. Thankfully I had added an additional drive to expand the array so I was able to quickly rebuild to that drive. Currently shopping for a replacement. From now on I think I will keep a cold spare just in case this happens again. I just wish hard drives would stop increasing in price.

Also if you do go this route and are concerned about privacy and security you can get a cheap vps then setup a VPN (wireguard probably) on the vps and have your home server connect to that. Then you can forward the vps ports to the VPN IP of your home server. This means that you don’t need to have port forwarding or even a dedicated IP at home and users don’t get your home IP. Keep in mind you need a vps that is relatively close to your house to keep the latency down as this setup will add twice the latency between home and the vps to the connection.

Just an FYI getting a vps or dedicated server that is fast enough for Minecraft modpacks is going to be fairly expensive. It might be cheaper to get shared hosting for the MC server and a separate vps for the docker stuff.

I usually also backup the etc directory so if I had an issue I would at least have the config files from the old setup. This has already saved me a few times when I have really messed up configuration files.

Not sure how many people would directly seek out a website like this but if it shows up in google searches its probably useful. You could also probably also source compose files from github automatically (obviously with a disclaimer) to help quickly get examples for containers.

That’s what I have and it works great for me. Still would have been nice if it was a bit faster. I think it was recently on sale for 40 so I can’t complain
