Author here, thanks for the warning! I'm all too familiar with this kind of situation! This homelab is for fun and learning. I wrote about why I don't (want to) self-host services …

I'm not too familiar with it. Why do you want or need ECC RAM for your homelab?

Oh lord of the rings, that's embarrassing. Thanks for reporting the typo!

Author here, I completely agree. In fact, I even wrote about it: https://ergaster.org/posts/2023/08/09-i-dont-want-to-host-se... My homelab is my hobby. I maintain it for my pleasu…

Author here, indeed I didn't install a UPS. I've tried to keep my setup fairly minimal, and I'm consciously accepting that if there's a power outage my services will be down. I sel…

Author here, indeed I bought a JetKVM. A colleague had one and recommended it warmly! I'm Very happy with it so far, but my usage has been rather basic. I've heard that it might be…

That's right, I've added an errata to clarify. Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks for pointing it out! I've added an errata to the blog post

I've had similar thoughts and decided not to embed comments on my blog, but to link to social media where people can still give me feedback. One of the most positive things I've do…

Do you have specific books to recommend?

Fair questions. For the first one, the main benefits of Astro over static html and css (for my use cases) are the ability to include components and enforce the properties that must…

Author here, that's a great question. I only host a handful of services on the VPS, including Nextcloud. I was mostly interested in storage, not so much in compute power. Netcup of…

This is absolutely right, thanks for pointing it out! The post has been updated to reflect that.

Author here, thanks for pointing out the mistake! The USB controller speed is indeed 4 Gbps and not 4 GB/s, I have updated the post accordingly. > I believe the USB controller stil…

I second this wholeheartedly. Atuin is a joy to use and makes it so easier to find past commands. Thanks a lot atuin, and thanks to the colleague who recommended it!

It's exactly that. And I also have come to the realization that I don't have to give up the convenience my smartphone offers. I only need to add friction for what causes distractio…

I've found cal.com to be a more pleasant experience than calendly. The interface looks more polished, it has a ton of integrations and it works really well. I could in theory self-…

Thanks for the feedback. The website is long overdue an update, and the donation page is part of it. I'm factoring it in the requests I'm making to designers.

When I publish something I like not shouting into the void so I want comments , but I also don't want to give a platform to anyone and everyone on my blog. What works best for me i…
