I have both the #lufc feed and a lufc followers list

Partly because

the #lufc list was sometimes a bit slow to update and

I'm interested in some of the other non lufc musings. (We're generally a good bunch)

Been on a few more months I think.

Generally it's good. There seems to have been a drop off in responses (or maybe I'm just talking more rubbish)

But not being fed shite adverts, bot nonsense and trolls is a good thing

It's be good to do more follow backs starter packs amongst #lufc contingent

It seemed like emery was saying to Malen get into their left back position cos we can overload them and get a cross in

All teams are doing it to us

The thread got messed up as, I'm still getting there with bluesky threads.

Status update is

File shares working
Remote network access set up
Network printing and scanning
Ad-blocking set up not configured

If I'm away from home I can access music, files and the printer scanner

#homelab

Mainly file storage to begin with.

Vpn for remote access

Also some containers for pihole, immich etc

For me I used an old WiFi extender with ethernet to the server so the HP could sit upstairs This is more for initial tinkering,

but if you are planning to do a #homelab think of where it will live, will it be noisy, ugly, piss off others in the household

Also, don't put it somewhere cold damp

When you look at a home server or #homelab as some call it, you also need to think of where it will live and how to connect it.

Basically an ethernet cable straight to your router (normally this is the kit from your broadband provider) is the way to go 4/n

Step 1 is the first build of the server. For this I'm using a relatively low spec hp proliant micro server (gen7) whilst this is quite under powered it'll do for the first iteration.

My plan is, in time to use this as the network storage component, and swap out the"server" but for a mini Pc 3/n

So first off what's the basic plan.

A home server with backup storage

Connectivity when away from home

Minimal investment and ongoing costs
