I've currently got one larger VM for my docker apps and use Traefik labeling to get it proxied with SSL. My next #homelab project is I'm going to spin up a few VMs on different machines so they can all be smaller and a little more distributed, then get Traefik hooked up to them.

This thing is so awesome, I've been using it for all sorts of things to help diagnose issues or make recommendations about managing my Nx workspace. Awesome work by the @nx.dev team! 🎉

Sometimes you crave cheap pizza. It's a different mood than when you want high quality. I can't stop buying Little Caesar's. Why do I do that to myself, when the vast majority of their pizza is either mediocre or straight up cardboard terrible? Because sometimes I get an absolute God Tier pizza.

The irony of me doing this one day after posting this meme. 🤣

Your Outie has a fully implemented and regularly tested 3-2-1 backup strategy. #homelab

Finally deleted my Twitter account. Kept meaning to over the last year, but never got around to doing it. It was a long time coming. The Bluesky community and platform is better in every way. Excited to be permanently away from all that.

Ah, the weekend. I bought Manor Lords, it was on my Steam wish list for a while and went on sale. Stoked to start building my quaint medieval village. I'll post back with my initial thoughts after I've played for a bit.

This mini rack project is so cool. If I was starting a homelab today I would 100% go this route. Not to say my route (or anyone else's route) is bad, but this is awesome having so many amazing options for a compact and low-powered #homelab. github.com/geerlingguy/...

I love how Nintendo quietly dropped this Switch 2 Trailer like "yes all the leaks were right now shut up and wait for April" 😂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=itpc...

Any suggestions on the best filament respoolers to purchase? I know I can print one of the many designs but honestly that's one thing that I don't really want to print myself. Too many other fun things I want to do to spend all the time and effort to print and assemble one myself haha. #3dprinting

We’re showing my son The Lord of the Rings movies for the first time. The absolute joy I had finally being able to tell him that Viggo broke his toe when kicking the helmet was nearly too much to bear. IYKYK. I’m in heaven.

I'm going to give Cursor a proper try for the next couple weeks I have off and use it with my side projects. I'm always less inclined to try new tools at work because I don't want to negatively impact my output while figuring things out. Hoping I'll be blown away and make it my primary tool. 🤞

I printed my 10y/o son a chess board, he had so much fun picking out the colors and pieces he wanted. Once it was finished then we of course played a game with it together. Listening to cozy music at night near our lit Christmas tree. My favorite use of #3dprinting is things to use with my family.

All right I've got a good start put together for an EOL file for my wife in case I pass away unexpectedly. I hope to continually add to it over time as I think of more things I missed, but I believe if I were to get hit by a bus tomorrow she would have the most important things she needs.

I've been slowly migrating VMs from my R720 over to my R730 in my #homelab. My eventual plan is to decommission the R720 so I'm not running two power hungry servers to inflate my electrical bill. My "critical" workloads will run on the R730 and I hope to get a low powered box for the rest.

One of my favorite things to 3D print is board game box inserts. There are tons of fantastic models out there for organizing and separating pieces and cards that would otherwise have to go in separate bags or just be thrown in the box. So great. #3dprinting
