- Comment on What should I run and why? 1 month ago:
I highly recommend using Docker/Podman, even though you say you don’t want to. It is trivial to start up a new service using docker-compose once you get the basics down.

Home Assistant can be installed as a Docker container instead of going with the whole dedicated machine route.

- Comment on Docker - what use is it? 3 months ago:
Aside from the technical explanation that others have given, here’s how I use Docker:
MeTube to rip videos and stuff easily. Just plug in a link and most times it’ll work. Here’s a list of all the supported sites.
I use Sonarr/Radarr and qBittorrent with gluetun to search for and download TV and movies that I watch on Plex.
I host my own Immich server that will automatically back up my photos from my phone just like Google Photos, except I own it all and it’s all kept private. It has its own machine learning and facial recognition, so I can search for “dog” and get all the pictures of my dogs, or I can search by person.
I use Docker for all this because the images come in little prepackaged containers. It’s super easy to get into once you figure out some of the basics.
Another great benefit of these containers is that you can transfer it to another system if needed. Just copy the config and data over to the new system and point the container in the right direction and it’ll pick up where it left off.

Stop using that app and find a different one.
- Comment on Am I in over my head? Need some encouragement! 5 months ago:
Seconding the other user’s post, it’s just storage. You can use it temporarily for the Plex server but I highly recommend offloading that task to a real computer.
A used Optiplex is usually the go-to because it’s low power and capable of doing the job. Just make sure it has enough RAM to handle the containers you wanna put on it.
Docker is a little bit of learning but you’ll get the hang of it. I found docker-compose to be much easier to learn. Portainer or Dockge can help by giving you a GUI, if that’s your preferred style (like me).
- Comment on How to keep carpet clean? 5 months ago:
For stain removal, having a proper carpet cleaner is worth the money. We have one almost always ready to go. It sits in the closet loaded with the water and cleaning solution mix and as soon as a big spill happens we can just clean it up.

- Comment on 6 months ago:
Lethal Company, a PC game, is currently hitting the charts. It’s a horror game kinda where you have to find scrap metal. It’s got some of the best AI enemies and they make it a challenge. I think it supports LAN but it’s not tagged in Steam.
