with the way I do it, you can also use NFS as a backend

https://docs.docker.com/reference/compose-file/volumes/

but you shouldn’t be building out new applications and new environments on VMs or LXC

That’s a bold statement, VMs might be just fine for some.

Use what ever is best for you, if thats containers great. If that’s a VM, sure. Just make sure you keep it secure.

If you use a volume, you can mount that anywhere.

volumes:
  lemmy_pgsql:
    driver: local
    driver_opts:
      type: none
      o: bind
      device: '/mnt/data/lemmy/pgsql'

Then in your service add a volume

    volumes:
      - lemmy_pgsql:/var/lib/postgresql/data:Z

I will be looking for cheap dishwashers when we need a new one, that don’t even know what the internet is.

Or making a shit appliances network, all the WiFi crap can live on that

I’m with him, what happens when my internet drops out (which it does on the reg)?

I can’t run the dishwasher cuz AWS us-east-1 is down

Yes, but no. There is still a lot of places using old fashioned VMs, my company is still building VMs from an AWS ami and running ansible to install all the stuff we need. Some places will move to containers and that’s great, but containers won’t solve every problem

would agree the hardware would run everything fine

right tool for the job mate, not everything works great in a container.

Also Proxmox is not legacy as its used a lot in homelabs and also some companys

I use proxmox to carve up my dedicated host with OVH, 3 of the vms run docker anyway.

If your router is setup to only allow in the ports with a service hanging off it, like SSH. Then a firewall wont add anything your router doesnt.

On the flip side, if your running any kind of VPS or directly accessible server, like a VPS or dedicated server. Then a firewall is required.

Now protecting your server from other things on your local network might something you want to do, think IoT stuff getting popped and being used to hack other things on the network

If you looking for fitness tracking, your in the wrong place. Fitness was always an after thought. That’s why I have it

Cycle Use New Think

Get both, report your fundings if and when they turn up?

Keycloak here, I plugged my keycloak into my Google workspace. Yes I know Google!!

But the login flow is amazing and I get all the MFA without the faff

Nice, what version did you pick?

That’s something, someone should fire musk out a cannon

Might do the same, the next batch might be more polished

You can place a pre-order today at store.rePebble.com.

I can’t wait that long

The morale of the store is, read the release notes to see what’s changing.

I don’t blinly update everything, but I do try to be on the more up to date end of things.

Case in point is nextcloud, that’s now on 31.0.0. I don’t ever jump to the latest untill the first point release is out, as nextcloud 31.0.1 is now out Wednesday night is nextcloud update time

If you run home assistant, that has a shopping list. We use that, most other things have a full on meal planner that I don’t want

If you run a single DNS server, you will always have downtime when it’s restarted.

The only way to mitigate that, is to run 2 DNS servers.

I setup my network to use pihole as the first DNS and the router as the second, most of the time pihole is used. Unless it’s down
