Are you in the US? If so, what state? This might be one of the few things I would never consider self hosting. There are so many legal issues you could run into, and if your self hosted solution fails, you’ll be fucked (to put it lightly). I’m an HR/payroll professional by trade, in case that helps.

I’m also a person that has always struggled to learn by solely reading. Typically a combination of video tutorials and documentation, while actually doing the work on my end, is how I usually grasp concepts.

This is something I have on my to-do list. I just need to figure out which router to go with.

Hack The Box looks like it could be quite interesting and fun. I think I’ll start there. I appreciate your feedback!

- Comment on Samsung’s $1,300 phone might someday have fees for AI usage 10 months ago:
What’s the issue with the Pixel cameras? I thought they were typically one of the selling points of the phone? Maybe I haven’t paid enough attention to recent reviews (been on iOS for a few years now, but want to switch back to Android).
- Comment on NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations 10 months ago:
I was originally thinking at least 4 drives (4 if I went the synology/other of the shelf option, or more if I went the DIY route). Not opposed to a secondhand computer, especially if the price and performance is good. It seems like a brand new NUC can get fairly expensive.
- Comment on NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations 10 months ago:
Based on some of the other comments, it sounds like this might be the way to go. What NAS are you working with?
- Comment on NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations 10 months ago:
You know, I’m not sure why this didn’t cross my mind as I started doing research. I have seen this recommendation countless times around here and people seem to have great experiences going the mini pc route. Thanks for your insight. Do you have any specific mini pc or NAS in mind that you would recommend?
- Comment on NAS/Media Server Build Recommendations 10 months ago:
I wouldn’t say energy usage/efficiency is super high on my list, but I am also not opposed to being somewhat conscious about that. Basically, a little bit extra on my electric bill won’t kill me.
Separate servers is also something I would be fine with. The Pi has been great, and I figured I could keep utilizing it the way I have been with some other services. It is currently running some form of Ubuntu server (can’t remember off the top of my head), and everything is containerized.

- Comment on Firefox Nightly for Android lets you install add-ons from files 11 months ago:
The iOS version certainly works without issue, but it is extremely barebones. Basically no features you’d expect from Firefox. Mostly due to Apple requirements. That being said, I am so thankful I can use Firefox as my desktop browser every day. That’s what really matters to me at this point.
- Comment on Firefox Nightly for Android lets you install add-ons from files 11 months ago:
That is my understanding of how it works. I have Firefox on my phone, but mainly use it to interact with my home server/bookmarks. Everything else is done through Safari for ease of use.

I wish the Firefox experience on iOS was as good as it appears to be on Android.
- Comment on HBO Max Shrinkflation: Removing features from my plan, with no reduction in price 1 year ago:
I canceled my subscription right after I got that email. I don’t use it enough anyway. I’ll just sail the high seas if a new show that I want to watch ends up there.
- Comment on Do any of you use Raspberry Pi’s ? 1 year ago:
I have been for about a year with one 8gb Pi 4 with a 500gb ssd. I bought it as a way to dip my toes into self hosting. Started with Home Assistant OS, but now I have a bunch of containers set up, such as Home Assistant, Plex, Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, qbittorrent, and a few others. I will eventually get something a little beefier to host my media, but will absolutely keep the Pi running.
