  1. Migrated my homelab server from Debian to NixOS, with an AI agent doing most of the heavy lifting. 🧵

    The agent first built an inventory of everything that needed to be installed, migrated and backed up. Once the plan was in place, it took a btrfs snapshot onto my external RAID, then installed NixOS remotely over SSH using kexec + nixos-anywhere.

  4. Kleine Planänderung im Selfhosting-Keller. 😄

    Eigentlich sollte meine Friendica-Instanz als Nächstes vom VPS auf einen Rootserver umziehen. Nach den aktuellen Preiserhöhungen habe ich das Projekt aber erstmal eingefroren.

    Der VPS läuft stabil, Friendica macht was es soll – also gibt es gerade keinen guten Grund, nur fürs schönere Server-Regal unnötig mehr Geld zu verbrennen. 😅

    Heißt im Umkehrschluss:
    Ein Projekt weniger auf der Liste und wieder etwas mehr Zeit für anderen Nerdkram. :smile:

    Mal schauen, was als Nächstes eskaliert.

  9. 🤔 Packe ich HomeAssistant als podman Container auf meinen allerliebsten SPOF ❤️ oder als Image auf einen Raspberry Pi 4?

    Bisher hat jede Schreibaktivität auf dem Raspi immer früher oder später dafür gesorgt, dass die SD-Karte (egal welche) ausgelutscht war und ich alles wieder neuinstallieren durfte.

  13. Hey Kiwis,
    I have some computer hardware for sale. I’m helping a friend off-load what used to be a media server in a desktop tower format. I’ve wiped all the data for them and verified it works with an installation of Ubuntu 26. They don’t need it and just want it sold, either together or in parts.

    - 11th Gen Intel Core i5-11500 x 12
    - 16gb RAM (DDR5 I think?)
    - Intel Graphics RKL GT1
    - Roughly 80TB of storage across HDDs and SSDs (5 x 1TB SSDs, 2 of those M.2 style)

    If there is more technical info you’d like let me know. They haven’t sorted a price yet, but make a reasonable offer that isn’t silly and I can pass it on. They’re just trying to do some tidying and cleaning.

    (Fyi, I may buy one of the M.2SSDs myself, but that’s the best thing to run the OS off of so I won’t take both!)

  26. Any good idea where to still find affordable larger HDDs (that aren't about to die)? Willing to go on an EU roadtrip for it. Perhaps someone knows someone, or something fell off a truck…

    I refuse to sunset our idea of a capable family homeserver, especially now that streaming subscriptions get canceled left and right. Unfortunately we miss the worst parts… RAM and HDDs.

    I'm aware the question is crazy…

  30. Apparently you can get a 16U full-size rack for $120 now.

    I just don’t know what I’d put in it, because I don’t want to buy “enterprise” hardware.
