  • I'm absolutely not denying those changes, quite the contrary. It's just another anomaly that our winters became a lot warmer and summers colder (not always though). It looks like we're losing seasons completely. I remember winters here where we had snow for 2 or even 3 months, while now I'm not sure if we had at least 2 weeks of snow last "winter".

  • Meanwhile, in southern Poland, I think we had one of the coldest springs lately, and only several really hot days of summer so far.

    Right now we have barely 22 - 23C here. I'm not complaining in general, but I wouldn't mind temperatures ~5 degrees higher and more sun.

    Selfhosted virtualisation learning kit

    Hello Lads and Ladettes,

    I'm reaching out to ask for your help and to know your opinion. Currently I have a simple setup of RPi 3 that only serves as a DNS (pihole). I've read some of your posts and I got hooked. I also started playing with HyperV on my Windows PC and created a virtual linux machine (Arch btw for meme purposes).

    I have started thinking... What if I bought RPi 4B (8GB RAM) and use some kind of a hypervisor to selfhost DNS and DHCP (pihole), VPN, SSO and maybe even NAS (some kind of platform like plex?).

    It's all for learning purposes, so I'm not aiming for anything extra expensive, reliable or ultra-fast. I know the basics, though I'm still a beginner. I thought the RPi 4B would be a good choice as it's relatively cheap and not energy-hungry.

    My questions are: What do you think about it in general? Do you know any alternatives to VMware ESXi that I can use for virtualisation? Any tips and trick you have to share? Do you think that RPi 4B can handle such task?

    Mayb
