3G/s and a SSD might be able to saturate it f you’re lucky.

The one is bits the other is bytes ;)

Network…3 gigabits, while a decent nvme gen 4 can do 4-5 gigabytes

Even old SATA connected SSDs should be able to keep up if you don’t buy trash.

Proxmox backup server on HyperV

Saves me an extra device basically.

Occasionally WSL for AI stuff but it’s annoyingly fragile frankly.

Expecting a minor revolution on the intersection of /r/selfhosted /r/LocalLLaMA and /r/homeassistant

The self-hosted AI tech is slowly but surely getting to a stage where it could pull all of this together.

What required siri/alexa last year will soon be on /r/selfhosted turf

Worth noting that mx renewals honor BF pricing.

I’m still cruising on my 2019 era BF deal lol…

I was looking at their policies, and I am worried about the “Forbidden Services”

Bulk email providers need pretty tight and aggressively worded ToS by necessity because they’re a target for spammers & abuse. The owner of mxroute has been around on various forum for years & consistently strikes me as a very reasonable bloke that won’t cause you problems if you don’t cause him problems.

I have 5 domains… Any idea what “massive numbers” means?

Maybe I’m imagining this so please don’t quote me on this but I vaguely recall hearing them answering a question around what constitutes reasonable in the context of unlimited domains as “if you needed a script/automation to create them then you’re probably over the line”.

[Note that this is purely my impression as long term customer & I have no special insight/connection to them. Legally they can enforce the ToS]

Opnsense firewall at perimeter…and that’s about it. Chances of anything getting in with no exposed ports is pretty slim so I don’t really bother with anything more.

For SSH exposed servers/VPS I do change the port though. Cut down log noise & maybe dodge the odd portscanner or two

Might as well if it is available.

Think it’s going to be expensive to kit of the home in a way that can actually make use of it.

…and then find a server serving anything that fast.

Not much - it’s been a pretty organic learning journey.

Very much a crawl > walk > run thing. Can’t necessarily jump straight to the end.

Opted for loki since it allows using the same interface for multiple purposes
