overview for Facebones

So many of them really just refuse to exist in public space. "The public" is full of evil undesirables, so let me go from my private space (home) to my private space (car) to go to my private space (work/school/venue) so i never have to exit in the scarrryyy public.

Even my more progressive best friends (a couple) refuse to go downtown because they can't park directly in front of where they're going, even though where they'd probably find a spot is still closer than your parking spot at Walmart or a grocery store - but I'm the crazy one for not prioritizing getting a new vehicle at all costs, sure.

Shit is bonkers.

With our current SCOTUS all he has to do is sue then ride it up to SCOTUS and have em declare it unconstitutional to have requirements for office.

Sitting in cars as a pasttime (reddthat.com)

Everyone I know, even more "progressive" people, treat me like a damn alien for not prioritizing getting a new car since mine died over covid.

Why does nobody blink an eye at this habit people have of just..... Sitting in their car in the driveway? Its not on, there's no music, they aren't leaving - they're just sitting there for an hour or more. I see it fairly often, but if I mention it being odd people look at me like I'm dumb. Are we really THAT car centric now that it's this normalized to be like "fuck my living room, fuck my TV, fuck my couch, I just wanna sit in my car all day?"

[Question] What should I look for in a mini PC to upgrade (reddthat.com)

Howdy All! I've been self hosting some services on a pi 4 for a year or two now and have been fiddling with new services lately. I realized I'm pushing 60% or so of RAM and maxing out the SWAP file while fiddling with things. I currently just set up a nightly reboot as a temporary solution but I'm thinking about picking up a mini PC of some sort to replace it with, and wanted to get input from the community (Read: people smarter than me haha.)

I'm happy to hear any preferences anyone would care to share on hardware. I know obviously more RAM is key, as far as I'm aware CPU isn't super important and any recent-ish box will probably have a fine enough processor in it, and of course I'll probably end up getting a bigger external drive to hook up to it but that's not a big deal.

Also, I'm currently running docker/portainer on an OMV core, just how I learned/got into self hosting. Should I take the opportunity to learn Kubernetes or some other big boy system? I've not done alot of reading into it but I know clusters are gaining steam these days even for self hosting, would that be valuable to learn more about as a hobbyist/enthusiast/whatever? I'm fairly competent and used to have some CompTIA certs but as such I know better than to unnecessarily complicate my life lol. It sounds cool but I don't see a use case in my personal usage.

Thank y'all for your time and knowledge!

I'm currently running: Baikal, Bookstack, Bitwarden, Duplicati, Filebrowser, freshrss , Linkwarden, Apache, Navidrome, nginx, portainer, rpi-monitor, searxng, stirlingpdf, syncthing, watchtower,

I'm considering: Nextcloud, Maybe a game server or two depending on the needs?, Whatever else seems interesting, I guess :P
