  • I used to work retail and was helping a college aged guy pick out some new headphones. He was deciding between some Beats and some Bose headphones. I literally asked him "do you want something that sounds good or looks good" and was amazed he actually said "looks good". So I reluctantly sold him the Beats.

  • The cell signal at my office is so bad it barely loads anything, so I use work Wi-Fi. But I wireguard VPN all my traffic to my home network so I can make use of my pihole and get to my home server more easily.

  • Open the Google Home app, go to " Automations", and make one for the household for when someone says "turn everything on" and any other variations you want, then just make it respond with something instead of actually doing the thing.

  • My wife refuses to let me pirate books for her. She wants to support the authors she reads, which is fair. But she decided she wanted to try the Harry Potter books, and asked me to pirate them for her to make sure JK Rowling didn't get a penny out of her.

  • So true...

  • Just rewatched that episode. She goes into the cellar of a convenience store and finds a trapped zombie and cuts into its skin, then comes out with a box of tampons. Nothing really too crazy happens even though they make you think it will.

  • Hue bulbs are just zigbee. You can get an offline zigbee hub, plug it into Home Assistant, and control it without needing the Hue hub anymore. Then just keep using your existing bulbs and buy generic zigbee ones as needed to replace when they fail.

    Any tips for switching Hypervisor from Hyper-V to Proxmox?

    I'm thinking about making some changes to my home server to make it a little more robust and let me do some cool new things with it (like actually trust it for backing up data to with NextCloud, replicating VMs or data across sites, etc). I'm just looking for any advice people might have for this process to migrate hypervisors.

    What I currently have:

    • Windows 10 Pro OS with Hyper-V
    • Running some applications on the host OS (Plex/PRTG/Sonarr/Radarr)
    • Running a few VMs for things I set up after I realized "I should be doing these in VMs..."
    • 4 HDDs for data, each just mounted individually. 2 for TV, 1 for Movies, 1 for Backups

    What I'd like to have:

    • Better OS for running the hypervisor (Proxmox is what I'm reading may be best, but I'm open to suggestions)
    • Nothing running on the host OS other than a hypervisor
    • All my services running virtualized, be that via Docker in a LXC or a guest OS.
    • My Drives all in a RAID 5. Planning to add more drives at some point as well.
