I use some of their switches using Home Assistant’s Homekit integration. Set them up on wifi in their app, add to HA, then block internet access in my router’s firewall. Kind of the best of both worlds at that point.

OpenMediaVault is a Debian server with a Web UI.

I did. This should teach me not to try and cook dinner and post at the same time. I’m NOT that good at multitasking…

AM5 sockets are now LGA like Intel. AM4 was the last PGA socket, so bent pins on the chip are a thing of the past. Make sure to leave the socket cover in place while installing the CPU. Now, the fear is bending a pin on the MoBo.

Not to sound flippant, but it seems like a solution looking for a problem. I use the --cleanup flag, and if there’s an issue, rolling back is as simple as changing dockerimage:latest to dockerimage:version that worked.

Unless I’m missing something.

I might have to downvote you. After all that, you could probably afford one. Forget a RAID though.

That looks an awful lot like what I have. I’m using the Lian Li PC-D600. I think I’ve managed to get my hands on one of the last ones in the wild. They aren’t even available used on eBay anymore.

What I like most about it (and the Tower 500 that you linked) is that the motherboard is on one side, and the drives are on the other. Keeping the drives cool is easy, I just upgraded the fans on my SATA backplanes and the case, and even under load the drives run very cool.

You can have this case when you pry it from my cold dead fingers.

Yes. They just won’t look/work the same as the native Gnome apps. I select apps based on functionality, so I have a mix of both KDE and Gnome apps on my Gnome DE.
