You are one of those hardcore the uglier the better. I respect that.

No, no and… yes.

I thought that was honestly the joke.

Thanks for the heads up, yea I’m well aware of that, I use it to, well… sync, my phone pictures with my PC.

I will probably start with this approach and see where it leads me, thanks!

Docker configs, sensitive documents, pictures, a limited amount of video files…

Notwithstanding that running an LLM is still more expensive than a search engine, in any reasoning around running an LLM you must include the training and, most of all, the incentive as a consumer you are giving to further training.

It’s like arguing that cooking a steak has negligible environmental impact. The point is the whole industry meant to provide you the steak in the first place.

Memes came and go and this picture is still somehow relevant. How old is it? I wouldn’t be surprised if it was 10+ years!

No I’m not. Other questions?

Sure, or you could send an email to the leading international institution on the matter to get a very accurate answer!

Is it the most reasonable course of action? No. Is it more reasonable than waste a gazillion Watt so you can maybe get some better keywords to then paste in a search engine? Yes.

I need to throw random spare old HDs at it, I expect failures, I expect expanding it, I expect very different sizes between the disks.

I’m very new to the whole ordeal but to my knowledge ZFS and, less so BTRFS are a bit too rigid for my setup, I’m personally looking at Debian with mergerFS and SnapRAID.

A privacy respecting search engine.

There are a huge number of vastly better solutions to get that…

I was hoping for some Proxmox magic dynamic allocation of resources, CPU cores and RAM between the two VMs. I have 16Gb RAM anyway so I should have plenty…

I guess I’ll play around starting from those much needed USB to SATA powered cables.

There a dozens of us!

So I guess I can build a new VM and this won’t impact too heavily on my computational power (mostly Jellyfinn streaming 1080p stuff), correct?

Is there any way around the impending… running out of USB? Would a usb-C dongle be a nono?

Either way, thanks for the great answer.

I’m pretty sure Shelter is better than Island, but I forgot the reason xD

Obtainium to grab apps and updates straight from the repositories.

GPS Logger is neat if you want to keep track of your movements now that Google won’t track you anymore.

You do not, in fact, understand correctly.

“Paranoid”, “Pointless”, “Basement”, “Obsessive”, “Hackers”, “nerds”.

It is still a very very very very marginal and marginalyzed topic unless your social cyrcle is a very specific one.

In my experience the positive and/or effective ones are “GDPR”, “Snowden”, “Surveillance”, “Freedom”…
