Yes, that’s what I meant, thanks for the clarification.

I tend to use /opt/[service]/, like for example /opt/forgejo/. It’s outside of any user’s Homedir and it seems to fit into what the FHS 3.0 (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard) defines.

Shit, I just read the link name and was hoping for a list of AI companies that have died.

This shit’s dark…

If it’s a Corgi, I would estimate the power output at .1 horsepower max. But if it’s a small dog the size of a large dog, then that’s something entirely different.

This is the way! At least install security upgrades nightly using unattended-upgrades and reboot from time to time to get the latest Kernel version.

Want to get REAL technical? Try a Ceph MultiSite Setup. I’ve only heard about it quite recently myself, so I don’t have any experience yet, but I think it might fit your needs. It would replicate your data over all locations though, so you would have to have enough storage everywhere.

Not OP, and haven’t done that (yet), but I think we really all should.

Very much this.

It’s called opportunity cost.

Shocked, shocked I tell ya.

+1 for Fractal Design Node cases. I’ve used the 304 (it’s Mini ITX, Mini DTX) for years as a NAS case and I love it!

I mean, wouldn’t you anyway? You don’t wear your good Sunday tinfoil hat to work. That one’s for church and swinger club visits only!

I run a J5040 ITX board for my homelab needs, which has been released a few years ago and has served me well, even through I run it with more RAM than the board specs allow. The natural successors of that are the Atom N100/N105 and the i3 N300/N305 (all 1 Gen newer than J5040) and AFAIK the Atom N150 and i3 N350 (2 Gen newer), all of which are available on ITX boards. Models for the latest chips might be a but rare though, and you might have to go to AliExpress to get one, but for the N100/105/300/305, there’s a wide variety available. Just make sure to get one with enough SATA ports for all your disks, so you can use it for NAS as well.

Disclaimer: I’m quite sure this is enough for your homelab/NAS use-case, but I’m not familiar with Minecraft requirements, and you might need beefier hardware for that. However, the above boards leave enough room in your budget for RAM, NVMe and HDDs, should deliver quite some bang for the little buck you have, and will barely sip energy, making cooling easy.

Interesting option, I’m familiar with Git, YAML and yq. Thank you!

Well, I do have a PaperlessNGX already, so I could use a custom field for SerialNo or something like that, but I just feel like PNGX isn’t really designed for this task.

Not at all, I like .md, and I’m familiar with Git. A spreadsheet is not something that I would throw into Git, but an .md…

Thanks, that sounds really nice!

HA, the term I was looking for is even on their website: “Asset Management Software”. My non-native speaker ass didn’t come up with this.

Thank you, I will check those out.

Though it sounds interesting for tinkering, I’m probably not doing down the NoCode route. You make it, you maintain it forever, and I don’t have that kind of time.

Sorry for being unclear, that’s what I meant. Set rules using the Ansible module, make them persistent by notifying a handler that makes a cmd call.
