Dead simple front end for running VMs (including KVM via Qemu) on Mac. Currently installing Fedora Cosmic Atomic for fun

as video footage files (specially) start to fill up my drives too quickly, i'm starting to seriously consider a NAS.

Recommendations?
Pour one out for the lab 😭

Today I discovered the Raspberry Pi 500. This seems so silly but at the same time I'm slightly obsessed.

Something about a Raspberry Pi in a keyboard just makes sense. If this included a trackpad to make a monitor-less laptop, I would buy it immediately.

Anyone catch the Framework 2nd Gen event yesterday?!

Framework Desktop looks super interesting and very reasonably priced, tempted to try running some local LLMs on the 128GB big boy and/or throwing Proxmox on it 👀

Finally installed Sonarr, Radarr and Prowlarr.

Running VPN inside container for Transmission is truly much better than whatever I was doing in the 2000s
Nothing says homelabs more than building an analytics server for your saas in the basement 🫡

You all get it here first. I wrote about building Orbiter's analytics server on a computer my wife brought home from her office. Enjoy! https://orbiter.host/blog/why-am-i-the-way-i-am-or-bare-metal-analytics-on-a-homelab
Saturday project: new managed switch, we setting up some VLANs 🤓

Taking recommendations for a home security system that doesn’t suck and also can’t sell my data 👇

Came home to discover that my Herman Miller chair and a bunch of computers, monitors, input devices, power equipment, CDs and musical instruments were stolen 😞

Stay safe out there, folks.
setup my first Raspberry Pi this weekend, first with a Minecraft server for my kids to play on LAN.

Maybe next I’ll try launching a self-hosted webpage.

Leveraging a lot of help from o3 mini-high. Always fun to learn through doing things.

yoooo, DeepSeek with the assist! Check out this sick ASCII network diagram it output for me 😍

Spent this weekend redoing my local network architecture (with the help of R1 and o3-mini-high!), took me 1/10th the time it would have a year ago

How are you planning to run, highest end Deepseek R1 locally?
Is the Jetson Orin Nano SDK already impossible to buy? Looks like backorders only.
