It’s not NAS specific, it’s platform independent - that’s the whole point. You have an application you want to run, and you package it all up into a docker image which contains not only the application but it’s dependencies and their dependencies all the way down to the OS. That way you don’t need to worry about installing things (because the container already has the application installed), all you have to do is allocate some resources to the container and it’s guaranteed* to work

*nothing is ever as simple as it first appears

One area where this is really helpful is in horizontally scaling workloads like web servers. If you get a bunch more traffic, you just spin up a bunch more containers from your server image on whatever hardware you have laying around, and route some of the traffic to the new servers. All the servers are guaranteed to be the same so it doesn’t matter which one serves the request. This is the thing kubernetes is very good at.

Edit: see caveats below

Fair enough! Do you cover your costs for it? I see you’ve got live stats - what’s your monitoring stack?

This is just really cool, I’d love to build an actually useful service like this and have it at least pay for itself but so many things are so daunting! (Payments, SRE, having a nice front end, …)

Wow really nice project! Do you work on this full time?

It’s absolutely orientalist, similar to Zelazny’s Lord of Light but for Islam instead of Hinduism. For these, I was able to view them as a product of their time and enjoy the story even while recognizing some problematic elements.

I found the 2nd book to be a bit of a slog, and I enjoyed the 3rd a lot more again. Since it was about new characters once again coming of age (… kind of), it has that same sense of exploration and discovery as the 1st. The 1st is definitely my fave so far though.

Wage Labor and Capital - Karl Marx. It’s very small but I’m taking my time with it

I’m in kind of a rotation of Sci-Fi (last: Children of Dune), classic novels (Dune kinda counts but my last from this category was Lord of the Flies), and nonfiction/leftism

What exactly is Hyprland? I looked at the site quick but I couldn’t quite figure it out from the description.

Disclaimer: I’ve only ever used Linux servers, not really as a desktop beyond vanilla Ubuntu

This is definitely a job for templating, seems you’ve got the right tool to me!

So far I just hand roll my docker-compose (at home, anyway). However, docker-compose does also support overrides via yaml merging, maybe that’s worth looking into?

My idea with that is to have a base compose that configures also my services and then to have a few override yamls with environment specific stuff (like prod, local, …)

This is similar to Kustomize from kubernetes land which I’ve worked with in the past

sir this is a capitalism

Als je niet revolutionair denkt dan is dat inderdaad de enigste optie. Vraag is alleen hoe ver je daarmee komt - zal je uiteindelijk je doelen bereiken of wordt het gewoon en pendulum?

Ik zou iig altijd voor het verzachten stemmen (mocht ik überhaupt stemmen) gegeven dat er geen andere opties zijn, maar het “dit is niet genoeg” gevoel zal nooit weggaan denk ik.

Well it looks sweet! Is there also support for the handful of metrics that Heimdall exposes? Like number of series in Jellyfin, etc
