I was going to bring up the Herman miller Arron, but that released in 1994!

That’s a lot of useful info, thanks!

What do you want to run in a VM that can’t run in Docker?

a VM with torrent client and a killswitched VPN was the easiest way to get a secure setup. also meant if it ever got virused I could just roll it back. I need to look more into what docker can actually do by the looks of it.

You are the second person to suggest unraid - is it ok to sit on the perpetual license (for a few years at a time), or are the updates really required? It supports GPU passthrough right, so I can have a ‘normal’ linux desktop for gaming while running the other stuff in the background?

TY for the response!

I only know of it from LTT videos I think, not exactly the best endorsement!

That’s a lot of data (relatively)! Are you paying for the unraid license yearly, or just sitting on an old version?

Here ya go: https://selfh.st/apps/

oooh, TY! Now to guess which ones will still be maintained in 5 years 😆

I guess I must as well have a play with some stuff like jellyfin to see if its useful. The ‘server’ in this case would have a 6 year old GPU in it, so should hopefully have enough grunt.

Thanks for the info!

ah sorry, my new ISP gave me a router, but it doesn’t have any VPN functionality on it (Edited OP to make that clear). My old one probably can’t support the speed, and for some reason doesn’t let me change its MAC address, so I can’t use it as the ISP facing device.

I’m paying for a static IP (and to get off cg-nat)

what benefit does a new router give over just putting the VPN software on the RP for example?

That’s some nice documentation - way overkill for what I need though.

Out of interest - Why is the VPS required, and why the mention of a non residential IP address? Could that not all be hosted locally if your ISP has given you a static IP address?

Ok… I will engage…

Why do they look fake?

FYI the photo on this post is from a bank run in the UK

Why would they volunteer to do up some land for you to sell for a profit though?

Seems unethical if your not telling them your plan.

Talk to a specialist estate agent. Trawl though sales listings.

I imagine the price difference will be less than the cost of improvements though.
