Old DDR3 ECC is actually cheaper than regular DDR3 RAM, and it generally works with AMD CPUs (who unlike Intel don’t artificially restrict ECC support to their enterprise offerings).
But tbh, ECC is generally not needed and I wouldn’t bother designing a system around it. Use a file system with checksums and regularly scrub the drives and you should not have any major issues with random bit flips that ECC protects against.
No, typically you use the DNS server of the domain provider.
Hosting your own DNS server is possible, but if you don’t have a static IP address the other DNS servers will have no idea which server to ask when your IP changes, so in this specific scenario it wouldn’t work. And in general it isn’t really worth it as you get a DNS server with your domain included.
DynDNS short for dynamic DNS is what you want. But IPv6 only websites are unfortunately even in 2026 still not accessible by many people due to their ISP only supporting IPv4.
ionos.de has VPS for 1€/month, which are not that bad. Server locations are Spain or Germany afaik.
Because you usually don’t want to do automatic upgrades across major versions. There is a “latest” equivalent for each major version release though.
Install a newer Linux distro on it and run a Luanti server for the kids to play on.
I ran into similar issues before, but adding a passive cooler brought the temperatures down sufficiently.
However when researching the issue there were several people that claimed that ~70° C is actually the design temperature for these SSDs, which would explain why they usually don’t come with a cooler.
Not too many 8 port managed switches out there with an sfp+ 10gbe port for 50 bucks
Easy to get these days actually, with 10gbit sfp+ and 8x 2.5gbit, managed switches. About $60.
But my actual argument was that your 48 port switch eats electricity like crazy. That aint a cheap switch at all.
But you seem to only need a 8 port at most 🤯
Way too professional looking for this thread.
Also, you got a link to that sticker? Maybe I’ll add that as an ironic reminder to my “Kabelsalat” 😅
That 95% unused switch 😱
Such electricity waste. Much unclean.
That’s very much part of the experience you seem to crave /s
You could also use them with https://www.filestash.app/ for example, but you still need something to actually store the files.
When building you own servers from consumer hardware this is a bit difficult, but getting a PSU that actually fits to the power use profile of the server seems to make a difference. Sadly it is hard to get small PSUs with sufficient SATA power connections.
Sadly this. I have a graveyard of nice server boards that I got cheap before realizing how power hungry they are.
For CPUs basically anything older than gen 6 intel is too power hungry (although be careful with Xeon and xeon derived cpus, that are sometimes older gens rebadged as gen 6).
Cockpit is nice for that. The Podman integration of it is also useful.
It is explained in the readme linked in the OP.
tl;dr: they were using it before, but the codebase is old and hard to maintain and also doesn’t scale well in an online cloud office context.
Personally I have been using both (ONLYOFFICE and Collabora Office), and I can see why people prefer the former, even though for small personal use the latter is also ok.
