My personal pet peeve is people using “societal” when “social” is just as appropriate.

Social media’s impact on society is relevant to technology. I would even say it is one of the most important questions in relation to technology today. So, how an owner tries to silence criticisms of his social media site for spreading fascism seems relevant to me.

Maybe op edited the comment, but they did end it with this:

Secular France has this kind of chaplains, and it’s great; somehow I don’t believe it’s possible today in Florida.

I’ve got a Frankenstein setup that wasn’t really thought out that well when I started. I’ll probably end up changing it later. If you go the Proxmox route, check out the partitioning suggestions carefully before you begin.

I’ve got an old minitower that replaced a mini PC setup. I wanted to bring my hdd into the box and connect via SATA instead of an external HDD on USB. I’ll probably get a bigger case to make installing HDDs more convenient.

I don’t really understand the partitioning to be honest. I have a 512gb nvme that is split up into a couple of partitions for VMs, ISO’s, backups and things for Proxmox. Then I have some other HDDs and SSDs that I use for files. Nothing in raid yet, but I’m hoping to add a couple of more HDDs. Then I’ll connect them to OMV and put them in raid.

I’m currently hosting radarr, sonarr, prowlarr and overseerr. It’s really convenient.

When I was in your shoes about 8 months ago, I opted for Proxmox and don’t regret it. Since then, I’ve been able to try different NAS OSs, experiment with different hosted services, etc. it gives you a lot of freedom to set up a VM, try a bunch of stuff, and then delete it and implement a fresh solution when you’re satisfied with something.

If you do that, you might consider having the operating system and VMs on one disk. If you decide on NAS software, many pass through the storage drives to the NAS directly.

I’m probably going to end up with the following:

  • Base Proxmox
  • NAS VM - OMV with NFS shares available to other services, SMB for the network
  • VM for -arr services
  • Plex on an LXC - a script helped me set the up
  • (Maybe) VM for home assistant
  • VM for other home services I need, like Immich
  • Maybe a VM for hosting things publicly
  • Testing VM

I hope this is helpful!

So hard to tell if this is sarcastic.

Well done!

I have an off-site Synology that is also killing me trying to get it connected. Did you realize they don’t allow ssh on their VPN service?

Do this in tandem with Biden taking full advantage of the current immunity to utterly destroy the Trump campaign since it is a threat to democracy. We’ll get that amendment passed in no time.
