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 There are many different tutorials not by promox that are outdated or may not work.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.

not sure if this fits your usecase, but nixos-mailserver

I used nixos-mailserver with success, and very little configuration. Most of it was dns, and thr guide walked me through it. You would have to a nixos box somewhere though. I spun one up on my vps for it.

What database client do you use? Maybe a plain database is enough with the right client.

Doesn’t need to. That’s a plus though. I think the features I like the most are dropdowns for foreign keys and more specific column types. For instance, a date type gives me a calendar picker, and an image type lets me upload and image and then see it as I browse the data.

Yes everyone would need a client (probably?) but after having recently set it up the first time, its incredibly simple.

You can also use p2p mesh vpn services like zerotier or tailscale to establish a direct connection without opening any port in the router at all.

Ive been playing with the nixified.ai project, which packages two web interfaces for LLMs and image generation. Im also looking into Tabby.ml for code assistant as well. I haven’t gotten deep, but these all look like promising options for utilitizing a server’s hardware but offering the functionality across the network.

First wow character. Not sure how I came up with it. I knew I wanted it in “two parts” so I could name all my wow characters the same way: rutrum, vinrum, seprum…and many others Im sure. Havent logged into world of warcraft in many many years.

I use Vutlr. They have a nice UI.

Whats the name of the process monitor? The fade on the process list is awesome.

I’ve never thought of mixing something into the grounds. I’ve tried adding things like nutmeg/cinnamon into coffee never getting good results (gritty!). I’ll have to try this technique.

I think Bulletproof coffee goes a step further and adds some kind of oil as well. I’ve seen it made with coconut oil and butter. I’ve never blended it either. When I add butter, a lot of it floats on the top, which adds some changing flavors as you drink off the top.

Not as out of the ordinary: butter. I prefer grass fed cow’s butter.

One of my regrets was buying a particular hario hand grinder. To adjust the size, you had to rotate a little knob underneath the burrs and it didnt have numbers, and didnt always “notch” and would spin freely, so I couldnt even count the discrete bumbs I would turn the screw.

I’ve since bought an encore, and I have a lot more confidence and convenience with my grinding.

What software did you use to make this image? Its very well done

I’ve been using OpenMediaVault inside Proxmox.

I’ve been very happy with OMV, for the short time I’ve been playing with it. Its FOSS and the web interface makes it very clear all the layers of abstraction you can use to manage a NAS. I highly recommend it.

And proxmox is good too, also FOSS (proxmox VE). I also has another slick web interface to manage stuff. I like the web interfaces because, albiet intimidating, it exposes alot of options available to me, which give me opportunities to research and understand how it works.

But I’m still working on getting everything with it set up, so take my suggestion with a grain of salt!

Programs like paperlessngx do a great job for cateloguing and indexing documents. I would like something similar for tagging personal photos and videos. But I would think the idea behind paperless would generalize relatively easy, and there would be something like paperless thats more general purpose and not just for documents.

You could technically make paperlessngx work, since you could catelogue photos, for instance. But it’s not flexible in the types of tags you can assign to it.

Something like metabase baserow, like a database client with quality of life UI features, might also work for you. You could build your own table for articles of clothing, name the tags you want, and even add images inline with each row.

EDIT: sorry, not metabase. I meant baserow⋮ baserow.io

Thats a really cool look, bright mode and borderless. Have you edited things like firefox to share a similar theme?
