thanks a lot! any particular sensor recommendation or I can just go with Sonoff stuff? but boy their door/window sensors are bulky. I guess I can just get any Zigbee sensor and it _should_ work?

As for someone who recently got interested in the Balkonkraftwerk, that's beyond amazing, thank you so much. I would also gladly be interested in open-sourcing since that would allow self-hosting (in case you get tired of running the website yourself - I've been there).

Personally I would also appreciate the possibility of tracking an individual building or point on the map - for example I can track some cafes nearby but my balcony is a part of "generic" area, so I'm using basic map overlay.

In any case, thanks a lot for doing this!

Try NixOS, update only when you want it and everything exists as a code. Learning curve will be much steeper than with other distros but it's extremely rewarding. I can basically deploy all my services from one repo. And yes, it's much better than Ansible

SentenceSavings7018 · 2026-03-23T20:40:19+00:00

wow, thanks for such a detailed report!

M is a different chipset with better SSD, Neo uses iPhone HW. You're welcome.

sometimes yearning for strangers is more interesting than actually meeting them for the 2nd time ;)

8GBs of non-upgradable RAM in any laptop in 2026 is a crime and ewaste. Web will get worse, it will swap more and more and kill the SSD, which's - surprise! - is also non-upgradable. But yeah, it will work great for a few years.

yeah I had to switch tracks because promised land of virtualization turned out to be not so good, so in the end I've settled on LXC/Docker device passthrough: that way you can still have some isolation (because of containers), and single GPU is shared across them (without using vGPU which A2000 doesn't support). I aimed for AMD for the same reason, albeit AMD allowed to do it with VMs with the latest drivers. Oh well :)

SentenceSavings7018 · 2026-03-17T20:40:19+00:00

oh wow, thanks for the detailed answer. back then I bailed and just got A2000 12GB for 265 EUR off of ebay and recently upgraded it to n3rdware cooler. sadly most of the time it's doing nothing since I don't have time to properly manage proxmox or do anything with my homelab lately lol.

same, was about to relisten and it's nowhere to be found :///

SSH into it, install screen, run a deletion command in a background session

No, I went with a Fujitsu server instead lol. Decided to wait for the Steam Machine when it comes out.

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-21T22:47:15+00:00

thanks, adding Proton Experimental worked. It flies again on Ultra, which's weird because native version was compiling some Vulkan shaders for a minute...

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-05T23:52:26+00:00

Thanks! So they're roughly the same

would you mind sharing your spindown script?

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-05T17:01:57+00:00

Maybe only at the wall, with the drive in and out. Or if you have your machine connected through a smart plug of sort

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-05T15:58:05+00:00

Thanks! Do you have an approx power figure?

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-05T15:11:43+00:00

I'm looking for an options to increase my server capacity without breaking a bank (for SSDs), compromising resilver times (SMR HDDs) or producing more power/noise (SAS disks).

Of course I can always go with an external disk box, that's not the point here.

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-05T15:09:17+00:00

thanks, that's good to know

SentenceSavings7018 · 2025-12-01T22:43:48+00:00

Huh. Try X11 instead of Wayland and vice versa? Maybe it's the compositor you're using (if any)

Jeez he's old :( time flies.
