another roart of the thread suggested using the Celeron box as an OPNsense router

OPNsense is a gateway/firewall/DHCP/router my network looks like this

optical to Ethernet conversion (the isp’s things) -> opnsense box -> network switch -> all other device (including wifi APs)

all traffic gets routed thru the opnsense box as it is the gateway to my network, runs the ipv4 nat and DHCP server

router in their comment refers to the the one that actually touches the Internet

what do you mean? they’re fine unless you want to read or write to them… wait a minute

one of those pi kvms or the like could turn on any system even if it doesn’t support wake on lan

risk of rain 2, game is sooo good just pickes up the dlc survivors of the void and it adds so much new stuff, def recommend if you like third person shooters and rougelites, it’s quite hard tooo which makes wining all that more satisfying as well as endless mode as an option

babyrage

systemd is an init system that is super popular because it is so not shit and does what people want, and has adjacent projects that interface with it nicely

some people want more variety but put their effort in an unproductive direction

ram matters because the CPU will use the worse speeds and worse timings of all the sticks, drive reads and rights are buffered so it doesn’t really matter

well yeah arm is definitely the future, but edge cases and undefined behavior make parity between the instruction sets a major pain

ah, classic isp dumbassery

wdym except Verizon? I have a whole section of /56 for me in ipv6, tho the Verizon website is ipv4 only

ah the classic html date input matches your browser localization not whatever the dev was doing

ah ok so I would think you would want to set that to 127.0.0.1:5353 if it is on the same machine as the router an just use the router as the DNS server in wireguard

that would have traffick like this:

client > 192.168.1.1(router) dns server > loopback to adguard

5353 is not the port that most devices use for dns,.that would be port 53, so if it’s not listening there the no connection would be made

I do 3 and have encrypted backups to Dropbox so I can easy restore/spin up a cloud server if I need to

well using someone’s code properly licensed isn’t plagiarism

a fair few of my uni classes were like take this guys code and make it do this, which were like 4 lines changes

I think you can run a ceph or glusterfs cluster for sharing files in a cluster

just need the USB 3.2 2x2 gen 2 thing (thanks USB for that fucked up name scheme) that the USB spec mangled for the 40 Gbps transfer speed

the 2 week Minecraft binge is so much fun, tho it only lasts for like 2 weeks then everyone gets bored, but that happened like once or twice a year

ram is really the limiting factor for most servers

if you’re gonna have less than 5 users on the services they’re probably not all going to be used at the same time so cpu usage will depend on which are being hit at the moment

none of the services you’ve listed are particularly heavy so you’ll be good for those and a bunch more no problem

I’m currently playing though The Messenger, it makes me feel dumb sometimes because some of the backgrounds look like foregrounds
