A hopefully “success in progress”: I am building a new trueNAS server for storage. I have a k8s cluster and am currently using rancher for storage, but I decided at my scale central storage made more sense & would be easier to manage. I am also using that opportunity to upgrade from 2TB usable storage to 44TB usable storage. Fingers crossed everything will work 🤞
I finally set up a VPN instead of exposing unnecessary ports to the wild!
I solved my no display issue on my server. I couldn’t even get the BIOS on output. After taking the entire thing apart and testing all the components it turns out my Tv broke itself with a firmware update and couldn’t receive input on any of the HDMI ports…
Name and shame the brand?
LG OLED ~2019. Nintendo Switch video wouldn’t even come through, which is how I figured it out

Reinstalled Dropbear for remote LUKS unlock after a SSD failure.
SSD failure was two weeks ago or I’d say rebuilding the server from backups and further polishing my Ansible playbook.
I survived another week without using LLM in my self-hosted servers.
Started running arr stack, started running music assistant, improved home assistant dashboards, and fixed uptime tracker
I finally buckled down and built a music server. I had a ton of FLAC from before sources but never found the right software stack to make it a good replacement for the typical streaming services.
It took about a month of beating/breaking/resetting and removing unnecessary software. In the end it was way simpler than I originally thought and required very minimal resources.
Building to this week. A few months ago, I was given a broken nas. I took it, thinking I’ve at least got 16TB of storage if it won’t work. Fixed it. Saw the software includes docker, and then saw it has just 2GB ram and before I installed anything it would complain about low memory. Got 16GB, and installed it last weekend.
Spent the week installing and setting up Immich, navidrome, and integrating my other server running arrs.
16gb. So you got a $300 nas
Pulled 8 out of an old laptop, and bought 8 for about 30€.
I dockerized FileHunter and workflowed it on project updates: https://github.com/ikidd/file-hunter-dockerized
Seems to work fine, idk why author didn’t have it dockerized already, seems like a project ready made for that.
This week - Apache Airflow setup to automate running backups (replacing cron).
Nothing broke
I cannot claim the same.
The truest answer :)
SetupSet up my audiobookshelf server successfully. Also, just realized that the Synology NAS that I’ve had running for a couple of years now without really using it much, can be mounted onto my Debian server, that I use a lot, as a mass storage and will work just fine. Mind blown. I now have plenty of storage after struggling for a while. Lmao.Set up my audiobookshelf server successfully.
I’ve been meaning to do this for a while. Do you put ebooks in it too, or just audiobooks and podcasts? I’ve been using BookLore for my ebooks, and really like it – I just wish it was a little faster.
Strictly audiobooks. Mostly for my wife because that’s all she listens to. For me, it is 90% ebook on my kobo and 10% audiobooks. Only when I’m doing something around the house or driving do I listen to an audiobook. I’ve also built my own android ABS client that I made to my liking.
I just replaced the piece of junk XFi router with a proper Ubiquiti dream router 7. I didn’t think it would make this big of a difference, but wow. Had to keep the old thing in bridge mode though. I want to next replace the cable modem built into the thing, but Comcrap requires you either use their equipment for $20/mo or you have to pay for unlimited data for $30/mo. They actually change you more to have the pleasure of not using their junk equipment.
