That’s good as well, of course. I use QEMU with virt-manager and cockpit on my office workstation running EndeavourOS and it’s glorious. Keeps Windows from ever being installed on the bare metal.

From a usability perspective, though, I think Proxmox lowers the barrier to entry, as the web UI feels considerably more powerful out of the box than cockpit. An interesting bonus is that you can add it to an existing Debian install, including one with a DE, though it’s not something one would want to do in production.

Bitwarden is the shit. As if the free tier weren’t good enough, the annual subscription is dirt cheap and you don’t have to remember more than the master password anymore.

TrueNAS Scale. It’s based on Debian instead of FreeBSD (like TrueNAS Core) and has KVM virtualization and k3s containerized app support built in, in addition to being a NAS operating system.

Proxmox VE makes this easy. Also makes building a cluster of such hypervisors easy. There’s a free version that gives you the entire feature set but you need to pay for support and access to the Enterprise repository.

It’s not the only option, and it may not even be the best option, but it’s pretty damn good.

Single-node k3s deployment with Pi-Hole, then?

It would be if nazis were capable of valor. This is just a lying Florida man who switched from bath salts to meth a few years back and tried to take it to the bank.

I’ve had decent results with my Brother MFC-L3750CDW. This one has a scanner because my use case is a bit different, but it definitely ticks the color laser, wifi, and Windows/Linux boxes. I wouldn’t necessarily use it to print photos, not because they’re bad, but because the colors tend to show up dark.

I use Docker inside Debian LXC on Proxmox, there’s a way to avoid the crazy disk usage and it works really nicely. I followed these blog posts:

I’m certainly not using it in production but it’s great in the home lab.

It’s the default browser on my computer, and it doesn’t suck, so I’m not motivated to seek an alternative.

All the extensions GNOME 44 users installed to make it usable are now broken.

Sweet. First line of the neofetch logo is still off doing its own thing, I see…

Any one of ‘em in the “Commercial Monitors” section of your preferred electronics vendor. I have a Samsung BE43T-H from B&H. Has smart features but I never gave it my wifi password or connected it to an Ethernet jack (I was amused when I saw it had one), and it has never once nagged me. Have had a Chromecast, Apple TV, U-Verse box, and PC connected to it without issue. HDR works. External soundbar works. I don’t have to worry about the interface slowing down or shoving ads in my face, it displays the content I ask it to and that’s it.
