Dynamic dns. Use it.

I use afraid.org.

Another option would be to just use tailscale.

But if you want unlimited tailscale you will have to host that too and also dynamic dns. Important note, idk what firewall you have, I have a UDM Pro, so that updates my dynamic dns automatically, yours may have something similar.

Someone has done this with relays so I don’t blame you for asking.

I think merging Linux with BSD would accidentally create the most powerful version of LSD ever created.

Sorry, I thought you were saying it was a pain to setup and run anything else, I disagreed with that. It is performance limited because it is a NAS after all, but still completely functional. I’ve never installed anything on one that it couldn’t handle, but perhaps someone else has. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I disagree. Docker containers are pretty easy to set up on it, though I admit that the small memory sucks in terms of performance.

Probably an *arr stack, nextcloud, and tailscale.

I’m working on a project involving home assistant, zigbee, and Google home. In a perfect world the doorbell would make all the Google homes chime. Not sure if it is going to work, but I know that I can simply hook up a Bluetooth speaker to the brains of it and it’ll work.

Software

My home assistant will be a docker container. In order to make this work, I will be installing esphome on the esp32. I got an esp32 screen because it will also operate a self watering garden, but you don’t need to. It will need to be configured as a zigbee proxy for home assistant, but seems pretty straight forward.

Huh, I didn’t realize there was an AUR for it already. It would only take yay -S linux-cachyos.

But I need to fix my btrfs/snapper anyways.

I broke it after reverting by messing up my subvolumes. Swap was not properly setup and somehow reverting also broke my snapshots subvolume.

I also want time to test on my spare laptop first so I can create a script/config for it to deploy to my school laptop and gaming rig. But it’s exam week for school and I need to finish transferring a 25TB VM to a hardware server.

I’ll mess with it over spring break.

Thanks to hyprland, I’ve fallen in love with Arch. Sure it works on other distros, but the AUR is great for easy configuration. I’m running it on my container server, my laptop, my gaming rig, and my OneXPlayer(portable gaming rig). That said, I have been eyeing CachyOS because of the kernel optimization plus it seems easier to install.

I’ve been in a similar position to you. I was in an accident and woke up missing a quarter of my skull.

Props for getting back to servers and code as a part of your recovery. The recovery process for me took a long time and a lot of work. I imagine you are in a similar position and question whether things will ever be the same again, the same way I have. I don’t know your particular situation very well, true. But for me, recovery not only took a lot of exercise, balance routines, relearning vocabulary, and a couple of surgeries; but it also took a lot of faith.

Shoot, you mentioned your projects, I did something similar. I found a hypervisor on Craigslist and set up Apache Cloudstack. I pushed myself to learn DevOps skills on it, Jenkins, terraform, cloud-init, and I’m still working on a AWS DevOps Cert.

But I would like to say kudos on your work. I think that doing it during your recovery is an extremely difficult prospect, but I do think that it pays off in the long run.

tldr; I think your recovery is coming along great. You may have quite the ways to go down that road, we don’t really know. But until you’re fully recovered, you will be in our hearts, minds, and prayers.

I mean, true, but most of the things I do that with are private scripts that I wrote. I think the main exception to that is Oh-my-zsh.

Also it’s not really a full pipe…

bash <(curl cht.sh/curl)

That’s saves the URL as a temporary file and opens it with bash. Frankly, the URL I gave you is very bad because it is not actually a script, just the help page for curl. Frankly, it would better if it wasn’t nested.

Same.

I see you’re on the right path… If you need any help feel free to reach out to the community and we got your back.

Side note, you could run it as a VM on proxmox and still get it to work… I think… But again network connection.

So this is a difficult question. Yes, you could use a VM if you have the hardware. The only downside is needing network connection in order to connect to it. If you are away from home that may require opening a port, or preferably a VPN.

Alternatively, I have winapps installed on my Linux laptop. Now, that is designed to run Windows as a VM within docker, podman, or libvirt. The reason I like it is that it doesn’t just use a full rdp session. Do you remember remote apps from back in the day? It is not a full rdp session, it only connects to the app you’ve launched and it appears on your Linux machine as just another window.
