Bought a n100 mini pc with alder lake igpu today for 60 bucks :). Will set it up as a plex server with av1 decoding! So definitely doable to get something recent for 150.

Don’t see how “nice space heater” can be seen as hate, that is essentially all the we are building here. Our space heaters are multi purpose ;).

You are doing gods work, salute!🫡

I assume you have a measurement wrong, 700kwh during the night means (in a span of 12 hours) a continuous load of 58000 watts. If not, nice datacenter you got there!

I run multiple lxc’s hosting portainer, there I can manage all my docker containers in 1 web ui. Its amazing. You can share files with samba or cifs in unprivileged containers (issue 1). I use that for plex because it’s easier to use the igpu in a lxc then a vm. In portainer you can bind mount your docker volumes to existing folders in your lxc and then proceed to share them with samba/cifs/nfs (issue 2). Note that nfs mounting in unprivileged containers is not (easily) doable. Portainer fixes issue 3. I can’t help with issue 4 but aren’t nics already hardware bound?
