• My [[Mac Mini]] is now running [[MacOS/Ventura]] and I've officially given up on running Linux on it
  • Now to get it set up as [[Boris Mann/Home Lab]]
  • Need [[Docker/Desktop]] for a bunch of things
  • Once it was updated I sat on the couch with my laptop and did a bunch of things over screen sharing
  • I posted to [[CoSocial]] Mastodon and to [[Bluesky]] and got a bunch of responses with tips

      • I have a Mac Mini running MacOS Ventura (the last Intel version).

        My plan is to run it as the main server for a home lab now that I have a 100Mbps uplink.

        I think I’m going to run Docker for some things that I currently host on Digital Ocean, and add a kind of Gateway Server on DO that has a static IP, does caching, and a few other things.

        Anyone else have ideas on what to run from a home lab, especially on #MacOS

    • [[Scott Nelson]] pointed to [[Headscale]] over [[Tailscale]] [[The Homelab Show]] https://thehomelab.show/2022/07/21/the-homelab-show-ep-64-tailscale-and-headscale/
    • [[FreedomBox]]
      • I took a look but it looks mostly out of date. Of the apps included, the blog and the wiki seem extremely basic compared to what I'm used to
    • [[Nextcloud]] was mentioned several times. I've been meaning to learn about administering this, especially in context of perhaps running it to support operations (and maybe members?) at #CoSocial
    • I don't really feel the need to run Pihole
    • [[Jeff Henshaw]] says [[SyncThing]]
      • Longer discussion here, the majority of my files sync through iCloud and... it's fine?
    • Various people pointed at [[Home Assistant]]. I live in an apartment and don't really have anything home automation wise
    • [[Jason Cornick]] gave a whole list of stuff, the interesting ones of which I created local pages for here

      • Boris I’m using [[homepage]] , pihole, [[bookstack]] , [[miniflux]] , audio bookshelf, actualbudget, [[it-tools]] and [home-assistant]([[Home Assistant]]). All running great in docker. I use Tailscale to securely connect to them all remotely, so I don’t need to open any inbound firewall holes.

      • He's running everything on Docker, and also pointed at [[Watchtower]] for automating updates to the container images

• Started having a play around with [[Anytype]].

  • A local-first, p2p, Notion-y type of thing. It's very nicely made.
  • Using it for recording structured data and relationships for [[Reclaim the stacks]]. Quicker and easier than putting it all in a hand-built DB.
  • It's making me think about how I could in theory recreate similar functionality in [[org-mode]].
  • Maybe I will try to, eventually, so everything can remain in the garden. But it'll be easier for me to do it in Anytype to begin.

• I upgraded [[spacemacs]] to latest and updated all Melpa packages to latest. Now various things in my [[org-roam]] setup aren't working. Sigh.

• Finished writing and sent [[Reclaim roundup July 2023]].
