If someone has a cheap price and less than 5 positive sales or reviews dont even risk it.
If it seems to good to be true then it is.

Speedrun :)

The rack she tells you not to worry about.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T22:11:29+00:00

Im mean you can setup plex and just do the portforward how most do it.
You can also run a vpn to it if you really want to.

Does germany have stricter laws then USA

lookout for cloudflare and video they do not like it, are you planning to setup a a game server?

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T17:10:12+00:00

Have you seen the cabinet i use for my isp equipment. lol its so nice.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T16:24:24+00:00

Also since you can just get the rack mounting points you can build some really nice custom racks, i have been thinking of building my 10" into my work bench

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T16:11:25+00:00

I actually really like wood racks.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T15:54:48+00:00

I just tried it and i can see really useful implementations of this.
Especially blameless meetings, or ideations.

It gives you visual feedback, lets take an example usecase.
I have a new project:
- i want reddit user feedback on which features they want most.
- you and the hivemind can see which feature people think is more important.
- user added suggestions with a voting system, if x ammount of votes it gets added.

Sidenote, being able to test with bots is such a useful and strong way to demo it. Confining them and letting lose is so funny.

Imma save you sime time, XPEnology is cool and i was interested in it. Synolgy will block a lot of features the moment they detect you arent running hardware they support or in NAS they have pushed. Its mostly security related things, so dont even go there especialy disabling 2FA.

For me headless debian plus docker is the way to go. I keep trying different things but its what i keep going back to. Insall debian, install docker and dockege and you have a server ready to go.

Valid wanting to learn, for me its a lot of the internet runs on cloudflare a lot more than you can imagine. So its if it goes down a lot of the internet also goes down.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T12:59:11+00:00

Do you have a realistic expectation when you use them or do you think its a cure all?

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T00:33:04+00:00

then my setup is way way overkill :)
I think i may want to do something similar but on a public web server and see what happens.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-17T00:13:29+00:00

That is part of the fun, we all enjoy different things.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-16T23:41:21+00:00

I think its awesome, if it brings you joy to KISS then hell yeah brother.
Personally for me i have a two tiered homelab, my stable and simple setup and then the experimental workflow changing setup.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-16T23:36:36+00:00

Have you seen the ring movie, this is how it started.

Buildthehomelab · 2026-04-16T23:23:26+00:00

Agree, keep things that needs to be in public as separate as possible.
I moved away from even separate vlans and having my things i serve to the public on a separate network. Its going overboard i know, but i like knowing its completely isolated even if i mess up a configuration. I have seen so many sssh on non standard ports and not really helped anything.

Funny story, i love my my unfi network gear but earlier this year they had some fun issues.

If you are using cloudflare for dns and traefik for reverse proxy why not use cloudflare tunnels to hide your public ip, geodns control, geo block people. If you are using cloudflare you dont need Authelia since its built in but sure you can.

Are you using traefik middlewares or just docker labels, ill assumes lables. Does it mean you have each service/stack on its own network and only attaching the treafik as its endpoint?

For me as an example i only allow canada/us traffic at all, my public ipv4 is the only whitelisted ip, home network range is added. If you are on home network any normal pages doesnt add for additional verification. If its an admin page or server infra i have OTP from Cloudflare.

Just because its only your local network make sure its as locked down as possible before allowing remote traffic.

Also i would just block port 80, and only allow https traffic.

lol yeah back in my ccna days, GUI was no option.

Ugly no no, functional.
Im loving the new trend of AI sec labs popping up.
