Almost forgot before going to bed but I feel bi-weekly is a good rhythm for this.
Let us know what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you found.
I’m currently looking to connect an NVMe SSD to a Pi 4 I have in a differences location to finally have proper 3-2-1 backups. I’m trying to find a NVMe to USB adapter that will work though.
Just swapped VPS hosts from ssdnodes to MassiveGRID. Got a pretty sweet deal, so I’m pretty excited.
Got my services transferred over this week and it’s been fun as hell. It’s interesting because I was discussing Portainer with my buddy and he has Portainer on his local PC to connect to his remote instances and with hindsight it sounds obvious of course, but it’s such a nice little setup. Just finished setting up my Jellyfin reverse proxy so I’m gonna watch a movie and chill.
I used Portainer for a while and still like it for checking out networking stuff, but try out Dockge! It’s more open sourcey and basic, but makes updating easier.
I spent half a dozen hours this weekend trying to get Proxmox running on a 2nd hand laptop, but I can’t get it to run without sounding like a jet engine. The machine did fine when I ran Mint and used it as a laptop - but even after blacklisting the dGPU and forcing all the CPU cores to powersaving, I’m still making heat like crazy.
Plan B is to put Mint back on it and install podman and see if fan noise is a problem then. But I’d rather have podman running in an unprivileged LXC.
Hmmm you might be able to first install Debian 12 and make sure the fan control works properly, then just install the proxmox application inside of that

I feel bi-weekly is a good rhythm for this.
What does biweekly mean to you? Twice a week, or once every two weeks? If it’s the latter, I prefer to use fortnightly, since it’s not ambiguous.
I mean every other week. I wasn’t aware of the other interpretation, but I think in combination with “The Sunday thread” it’s unambiguous?
I have never heard fortnightly, but then I’m not a native speaker. Is that commonly used?
I have always heard bi-weekly be every other week, and semi-weekly be twice a week
