    Pi4 with 2TB SSD running:

    • Portainer
    • Calibre
    • qBittorrent
    • Kodi

    HDMI cable straight to the living room Smart TV (which is not connected to the internet).

    Other devices access media (TV shows, movies, books, comics, audiobooks) using VLC DLNA. Except for e-readers which just use the Calibre web UI.

    Main router is flashed with OpenWrt and running DNS adblocker. Ethernet running to 2nd router upstairs and to main PC. Small WiFi repeater with ethernet in the basement. It’s not a huge house, but it does have old thick walls which are terrible for WiFi propogation.

      How are you finding the AooStar R7? I have had my eye on it for a while but not much talk about it outside of YouTube reviews

        They’ve been rock solid so far. Even through the initial sync from my old file server (pretty intensive network and disk usage for about 5 days straight). I’ve only been running them for about 3 months so far though, so time will tell. They are like most mini pc manufacturers with funny names though. I doubt I’ll ever get any sort of bios/uefi update

    1) DIY PC (running everything)

    • MSI Z270-A PRO
    • Intel G3930
    • 16GB DDR4
    • ATX PSU 550W
    • 250GB SSD for OS
    • 500GB SSD for data
    • 12TB HDD for backup + media

    • An HP ML350p w/ 2x HT 8 core xeons (forget the model number) and 256GB DDR3 running Ubuntu and K3s as the primary application host
    • A pair of Raspberry Pi’s (one 3, one 4) as anycast DNS resolvers
    • A random minipc I got for free from work running VyOS as by border router
    • A Brocade ICX 6610-48p as core switch

    Hardware is total overkill. Software wise everything is running in containers, deployed into kubernetes using helmfile, Jenkins and gitea

      Your link is not on https and asking me to download a .bin file. Extremely sus

      Edit: link looks good now

        OKey, so that’s a bit concerning… I’d love to get my hand on this “bin” file, I cannot reproduce the issue on my side… Also the site should be HTTPS only. I had a bug with caching recently that showed the ActivityPub data instead of the blog post, could it be that ? Are you on mobile, and the browser cannot show JSON data properly so it tries to download it with a weird name ?

          I’m not really a networking expert so I can’t make too good of a guess as to what happened. I’m on the latest Firefox mobile release on Android and was accessing from a Colorado IP. When I originally tried the site, nothing was rendered. It was a blank page or just a redirect for download. I didn’t download the .bin. I clicked your link twice before sending my message.

        Now I realize you may have been asking what kvm I’m using . It strapped to the bottom of my desk so you cant see it . Here is the exact one I have TRENDnet 2-Port Dual Monitor DisplayPort KVM Switch with Audio, 2-Port USB 2.0 Hub, 4K UHD Resolutions Up to 3840 x 2160, Connect Two DisplayPort Monitors, Dual Monitor KVM Switch, Black, TK-240DP https://a.co/d/epAHtkR

          Yeah, that’s what I was asking. DP KVMs are a bit of a hit and miss. Any problems with it?

            This one works perfectly was just a little expensive. I got cheap one the first time and my monitors would turn off and on with my gaming PC .

        It’s a device where you can plug in things like monitors, mouse keyboard, etc and then that plugs into both PC’s and you can switch back and forth without having to unplug anything. here is an example of one . 4K@120Hz DisplayPort KVM Switch 2 Computers 2 Monitors DP1.4, KVM Switches Dual Monito 8K@60Hz with 3 USB 3.0 Ports Share Keyboard Mouse Printer (EDID Plug and Play) and Wired Remote, USB3.0 Cable*2 https://a.co/d/h9vJ0Uu

    An old computer running on the top of a shelf that whenever I need to work with a display I have to bring it back down to the floor and borrow a VGA cable from another because the HDMI port is broken.

    Oh and it occasionally disconnects itself from the internet.

    • Server - Desktop Tower

      • Build - Intel server board & CPU based on old serverbuild naskiller guide
        • OS on SSD
        • ZFS ON 8 6TB DRIVES, YIELDING ~36TB of storage, recoverable with up to two failed drives
      • Runs (via docker)
        • Navidrome (webui used daily @ work, dsub on phone, feishin on desktop)
        • Jellyfin (used almost exclusively locally on my TV, occasionally to watch with friends on web)
        • Nextcloud (used occasionally, mostly backs up password files, etc or to share. Thinking about replacing.)
        • QBitTorrent with glutun VPN
        • Audiobookshelf - used frequently for audiobooks. Occasionally for podcasts. Often more convenient to use antennapod/pocket casts on phone for active podcasts)
        • Kavitas - used seldom. Thinking about stopping. I like using obps on my rooted kindle to access my library.
        • Changedetection.io -watch some sites for new products, etc
        • Kiwix (local wikipedia copy I use shortcuts in FF locally to search for things)
        • Homepage (local links I use on local machines to my services)

    • Raspberry pi

      • Adguard home & unbound - block most garbage for any traffic from my home

    Thoughts - I’m considering downsizing. I don’t really need all that much space, and it can be a headache at times. With drive replacement costs on top of power (~$320 a year) I consider either going to a vps or downsizing to what could run on a small compute like the n100 or a raspberry pi5, etc.
