I used Zola for a while, but at the end of the day there wasnt enough themes available that fit what I was looking for. I ended up messing with the templating engine to get what I needed.

I suggest OP choose Hugo over Zola, in the hopes that they find a theme that suits them best and for the most part prevents them from having to touch templating to begin with.

Paperlessngx will store pdfs and index their contents for searching. It’s not necessarily meant for books but I think it would work.

What cad software did you use?

I recently built a site with hugo. Its very easy. You pick a theme, then write some markdown files. And when you need flexibility, you have it for later. I also think it’s the most popular right now, which lends to a lot of themes to pick from and a lot of cpmmunity support.

Really love the side panel. I dont see those done vertically very often, and yours looks good.

Can you share pics with this door? How do you walk outside and have it lock behind you?

I’ve used minio briefly, and I’ve never used any other self hosted object storage. In the context of spinning it up with docker, it’s pretty easy. The difficult part in my project was that I wanted some buckets predefined. The docker image doesn’t provide this functionality directly, so I had to spin up an adjacent container with the minio cli that would create the buckets automatically every time I spun up minio.

But for your use case you would manage bucket creation manually, from the UI. It seems straight forward enough, and I don’t have complaints. I think it would work for your use case, but I can’t say its any worse or better than alternatives.

You could probably find $3, but no less. And if you went to a nice coffee shop, that did a pour over or something, I’d expect $5-$7.

Inpsired by the mixed ice drinks at the chain “the coffee bean and tea leaf” (I only see it when traveling, not native to hometown) I just make coffee and chai tea, mix it together with butter (hot). Their iced drinks are amazing, and besides the large amount of sugar, Im certain its the mix of coffe and tea.

Thanks for sharing! The band poster is particularly very cool :)

I wonder if someone would go so far as to put tags on each of their record albums to do the same thing (kind of odd not actually playing the vinyl, but it’d be easier to play an album!)

Not an answer: whats your setup for your cameras/security?

Ooh, Ive heard of these. Can you name some of the ways you use them? Do these effectively work as a cheap alternative to a physical switch or can they be used more creatively?

I think containers get seen as overhead unfairly sometimes. Yes, its not running on bare metal, so theres a layer of abstraction, but I think in practice the performance is nearly identical. Plus, since AIO does things out of the box for you (like a redis cache for instance) it ends up being more performant than a standalone nextcloud instance that isnt configured properly.

That is to say, I use AIO without issues.

Its a online subscription service but they give you bags from roasters around the world. I see it advertised in youtube videos, and wasnt sure if people had used it to find new brands of coffee they liked.

Today, I was trying oolong. But I have black tea as well. No herbals or greens (I think those are the main families, right?)

Anyone ever done trade coffee? Is it worth it?

Im using nextcloud news and the associated app. I like it because it lets me play podcasts in a player built into the android app. I havent found an up to date rss reader for freshrss that does the same (read you is beautiful, but doesnt have this feature.) And I have nextcloud already up so its easy to start with.

Theres also many plugins for freshrss, including one for rss-bridge that turns urls into rss feeds. I use this for youtube subscriptions. You could also use rss bridge independently, which is what I use for nextcloud news.

I really think the learning curve will be less than you think. Please consider at least reading the installation instructions. Here’s the page for linuxserver.io’s maintained plex docker container. I’ve linked to the usage section, where you can copy the compose file to deploy it. https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-plex?tab=readme-ov-file#usage

If you use docker, it doesnt matter the distro. And to use docker, you dont really need to understand how/why it works. As long as you can take an example compose file and spin it up (docker compose up) it’ll be less complicated in the long run than managing plex on the host machine (or most software for that matter, which is why containerization is so popular.)

It seemed nice at first, but one major issue: GPU passthrough was a nightmare. It cant be done in the UI and I didnt understand fully how it worked. There are many different tutorials not by promox that are outdated or may not work. It was frustrating enough I jumped to NixOS. Other hiccups included having to go to the terminal to passthrough drives for openmediavault, but that one was kind of straightforward atleast, and it worked first time.

In hindsight, I didnt actually need to virtualize everything at that level, so I never really had a good use case for it anyway. I use containers over entire VMs.
