In hindi we call it “old lady hair”

If going for an inverter try a sin wave one if it’s in your budget.

This usually depends on the country/region. For example in India ikea is obscenely expensive for what they are selling when you can get a miles better product at a similar price.

At least in Delhi you can get really really good furniture at a fair price.

You can get pretty sleek mini-pc in the price but, there performance is sub-par compared to the price they are asking for.

While itx for factor is very expensive, m-atx is cheaper and there are quite few sleek cases for them.

If you are looking for prebuilt mini pc, asustor flashtor is pretty sleek if you only want m.2 storage.

Why not build a new PC or buy an old pc? One with ryzen 5 5600G, 8gb Ram, 250GB ssd should cost ~250USD whether you buy new/old, i recently checked the prices, cause I needed one and they were similar. This should take you a long way. As for storage just pick a case with enough ssd/harddisk slots.

You can also go much cheaper depending on what you get.

The advantage is you can add a GPU like the intel A380 for av1 encoding of video if you feel like you need it.

For OS depending on what you are doing there are a few choices:

• True nas: mid difficulty
• debian: i just use this with docker, does the job
• alma linux/Rocky linux
• ubuntu
• yunohost: if you would be interested in hosting activitypub apps, easy
• casaos: easy

I don’t know why people keep suggesting reverse proxy when this is what OP is looking for.

I had a question about email.

I am currentl, routing(Cloudflare Email Routing) my email to a Yahoo mail account, basically all incoming email gets routed to my yahoo, and from Yahoo I can send email with my custom address as the sender address.

As far as I am aware I have a daily limit of 200 emails and 1tb storage, all this for free.

Would such a service not be better for your purpose too? Are there certain advantages to paying for an email provider?

Just go Cloudflare. The dot.win told they have is incredible value ~3$ per annum if i remember correctly.

Other pros of using Cloudflare:

• Cloudflare ddns
• Cloudflare tunnels
• Cloudflare proxy

It does a a few cons, like not being able to use custom nameservers if you aren’t paying 200$ a month. Also the fact of Cloudflare being an internet gatekeeper may not be to your liking.

I did not know this, I thought there were being done here. Sorry if this troubled you, will keep this in mind moving forward.
