I use a Ryzen 5900x, RTX 3080, 2x 10Gbit sfp+ NIC, 128GB ECC RAM, and only 2x 20TB drives at the moment.
For my gateway, I have an Intel N6005 box, I have a managed 2.5/10Gbit switch, and I have a wifi AP.
I have a ton of Proxmox VMs and containers.
All that hovers between 140W to 180W
To make life easier for yourself, I’d highly recommend running Linux on a separate drive. The Linux distribution installers I’ve used will install the bootloader on whatever drive you choose to install on, but the windows installer will use the storage controller’s port ordering to choose which drive to install on.
Your best bet is to simply disconnect the Windows drive when installing Linux and to disconnect the Linux drive when installing Windows, then just use the BIOS boot selection screen to choose which OS to boot into.
You can add your Windows drive to Grub and you might be able to add your Linux distro to your Windows bootloader, but keeping them entirely separate is probably best.
I preordered the new screen for my 2nd-gen. This is all great news!
I use porkbun for my domains, cloudflare for dns, ddclient connecting to the cloudflare api for dynamic dns, and traefik as a reverse proxy to send subdomains to their respective service.
The only part I have to pay for is the porkbun domain.
$8 for a year is a good deal, but be ready to switch when that expires.
That’s a non-commercial license. It’s not open-source, just source-available.
Once HedgeDoc 2.0 comes out with the “Explore” page, I’m pretty sure that will take over for Obsidian for me. I have played around with all the fancy features in Obsidian, I just don’t think I need the majority of them.
Unfortunately, Obsidian isn’t FOSS, but I do sync it with my own server and it does store everything in plain-text, so when something better comes along it will be easy enough to switch.
Thanks for the kind words, though!
Again, with the probable ADHD, that sort of workflow would never work for us. I can understand why you want to get away from it.
I have ADHD. Setting it up took some time and effort, but I haven’t had to mess with it since.
I have been on a similar search.
I don’t think Joplin does real-time collaboration, if that is the kind of collaboration you’re looking for. If you don’t expect you and your wife to edit documents at the same time, it may work for you. For me, I almost exclusively want to real-time edit lists with my partner.
My current system gets around real-time collaboration needs by using 3 obsidian notes in a shared obsidian vault. For example, my partner and I each have a grocery list with a dataview showing the other’s list in their own. That way my partner can edit their list and I can see what they’re editing while doing the same on mine, thus avoiding collisions. Then, I have an in-store grocery list view that joins the two lists and groups by isle, and we just check off things on a single phone as we put them in the cart.
I would LOVE to get away from this system.
Hedgedoc 2.0 will have an Explore Page when it comes out, and with that, I think it will solve my use case. It has a good-enough mobile interface, and markdown isn’t terrible.
For the music festival, have you considered something more robust like a wiki?
I just switched from Nobara to NixOS on my gaming PC. I’ve had NixOS on my laptop for almost a year and decided I’m comfortable enough with it to use it full time, and it works great for gaming.
Before NixOS, I was a die-hard Arch user. The only reasons it would break were because I was trying a bunch of stuff from AUR to play around with Wayland + Nvidia when that was brand new, or when I would forget to update for a while.
It breaking was primarily due to me tinkering around and not fully undoing those changes. Now I can do that with no fear on NixOS, and it’s fabulous.
A basic, local text-to-speech app using home assistant’s piper would be great. Feed it a document and have it read the document to you, highlighting along the way.
I currently use nextcloud + todo.txt
I don’t have my todos in my calendar (I think that may be what you’re asking for?), but both are solid systems.
I sync my todo.txt files via nextcloud. I use sleek on my desktop and ntodotxt on my phone.
Also, notifications. I’m a fairly forgetful person, so I set up notifications to let me know if I left windows open or devices on before I go to bed or leave for work.
Well, hopefully my invidious instance holds up for a while
Like the other commenter said, that is correct. For SSH, I set up a VM as my SSH bastion or jump host. I connect to that, and the SSH from that to any other machine on the network.
you need a reverse proxy.
OP was asking for real-time collaboration in a package similar to Google Keep: a simple, mobile-friendly UI (my bar for this is at minimum a UI that has a dedicated button to make a checkbox, automatically adding a checkbox on the next line when hitting “enter”, and the ability to check or uncheck boxes by touching them alone) with an at-a-glance view of available notes, both private and shared.
It’s something that I want, too. I’m happy using tons of weird stuff, but I need something simple, easy to use, and with real-time collaboration to use with my partner, who is very much not interested in anything less convenient than Google Keep. The closest thing I can see coming is HedgeDoc 2.0, but it would still be a hard sell.
Does Joplin actually have real-time (as in two people simultaneously editing with two cursors and changes streaming in a character at a time) collaboration? All I found was some vague language about shared notebooks and some guy’s stab at a real-time collaboration plugin that hasn’t been touched in 3 years.
My plan to handle this is to switch my VMs to NixOS, set up NixOS with impermanence using a btrfs or zfs volume that gets backed up and wiped at every startup with another that holds persistent data that also gets backed up, and just reboot once per day.
I’m currently learning how to do impermanence in all the different ways, so this is a long goal, but Nix config + backups should handle everything.
