I think the next thing I plan to tackle is #HomeAssistant - most of my smart devices are now communicating on WiFi, and controlled using multiple proprietary apps.

I plan to deploy HA using
#Docker (so it's portable and easy to contain) - either on a #RaspberryPi, or on my #Proxmox #homelab server (perhaps on an #LXC container, assuming that's possible).

I also plan to replace some of these smart (WiFi) devices with
#Zigbee devices - I'm a commmmmpleeeeete noob when it comes to #SmartHome stuffs, but I think that's the recommended way of doing things...? There's a lot of talk about #Matter too from my search, no idea really what these jargons are.

Anyway, I just wanna grasp the concept first - assuming I deploy HA as planned i.e. on Pi 4 or LXC container (or VM), what is it that I need to purchase to make it work (i.e. be able to add these Zigbee or Matter-compatible home devices/appliances)? cos I assume the platform I'm hosting HA on would need some sort of hardware to be compatible with any of them that aren't communicating merely through WiFi/LAN?

Had two power cuts yesterday and it killed the SSD in my HomeLab #Proxmox server i recently setup. Thankfully my vms were on second drive. Had fun today workout how to recover them. Will have to sort proper backup soon need something to copy them to first.

Um die virtualisierten Win10 Arbeitsplätze auf Win11 zu heben vom AMD Proxmox Server auf den Intel Proxmox Server umziehen müssen, damit die leidige CPU Kompatibilitäts Erkennung grünes Licht gibt. Danach läufts natürlich prima auf der AMD Kiste weiter... Sämtliche mögliche CPUs in qemu halfen nicht weiter. Jemand das anders gelöst bekommen ? #proxmox #Windows10SupportEnde #windows

Mal angenommen Euer 11-jähriger käme mit der Idee um die Ecke, dass er einen #Minecraft Server für sich und seine Freunde haben wollte.
Wie würdet Ihr reagieren? Stellt man sich sowas ins Homelab? Lieber 4€/Monat für den Microsoft-Service? Muss ich die Ports voll durchtunneln? Muss ich Sicherheitsbedenken haben? Läuft so ein Server auch in einem #Proxmox Host oder besser dedizierter Rechner?
Ich lernte schon, dass es ein #Bedrock Server sein muss, damit es mit der #Switch funktioniert.

I have no IT background. Just like to tinker. Started running #fedora kde plasma on my laptop. Ran some VMs. Just installed #proxmox on a mini PC. Latest accomplishment: #tailscale. Just getting by with YouTube videos and searches, but having fun mixed with frustration. I don't interact much here. Still, I wanted to shout out my excitement into the "abyss".

If I wanted to run a Linux GUI application in a container on a headless host, what's the best way to do this?

I have a host running #Proxmox. The Debian/Ubuntu VMs are very slow at doing this thing that seems much faster in Debian on LXC (device virtualization, maybe 🤷‍♂️) However, the app I want to run has a GUI, which is useless in LXC, which doesn't have any sort of display.

macOS stopped bundling an X11 server and I don't feel like doing some wild "X11 on macOS" adventure today.

Nachdem ich mit der hosted @ente wirklich nicht glücklich werde (die Performance ist einfach zu schlecht), überlege ich jetzt wirklich, die Familie nochmal umzuziehen, auf eine lokale #Immich Instanz.

Dazu brauche ich in meinem #Proxmox Cluster aber wohl einen Node mit etwas mehr Power.

Ich denke an einen sparsamen MiniPC mit 32-64 GB RAM und mindestens 8 Cores.

Jemand eine Idee, für eine bezahlbare Lösung, idealerweise lüfterlos?

Hmmm. Ok then. I seem to have broken my #opnsense configuration and cannot access anything. Like anything at all. WTF.

Even plugging my laptop directly into the #proxmox server nic, and setting my laptop nic settings to what should be the network, I can't get to the proxmox or opnsense servers.

Am I going to have to completely rebuild and configure the whole setup again? I cannot believe I did this. What a bonehead move. I don't even have a spare router handy I could use temporarily. Ugh.

Guess it's time for a new #introduction, post instance move.

Hi! I'm Crabbypup, or just 'crabby', though only in name most days.

I'm a Linux flavored computer toucher from Kitchener-Waterloo.

I tend to share stuff about the region, Open source software in general and #linux in specific.

I like to tinker in my #homelab, where I run #proxmox, #ceph, and a bunch of other #selfhosted services including #homeassistant.

I'm a rather inconsistent poster, but I'm glad to be here.
