Hey, I'm always searching a home server (already post here https://lemmy.ml/post/15083947), I was thinking about a Lenovo P500, but maybe the PSU is a bit too special... My budget around $140, will buy used parts and one of the most important thing is the power efficiency (don't care about the peak wattage but want to stay around 50W idle and settling at about 70W when doing some work). Preferably I wouldn't like to buy mini PCs. 😃 Thx!

Just a simple question : Which file system do you recommend for Linux? Ext4...?

EDIT : Thanks to everyone who commented, I think I will try btrfs on my root partition and keep ext4 for my home directory 😃

SOLVED : That was a misconfiguration.. (https://piefed.social/comment/1218522)

It's strange.. I cannot see some of my recent posts. If you go on my profile, you cannot see the recent posts, the last on is about 2 weeks.. If someone has a solution ! thank you

EDIT : I can see this post on my profile but it's missing loads of others between two weeks and today...

EDIT : I'm going to use a Lenovo P500 (at around $130) with 8 threads (will upgrade it later) and 64gb of RAM. It support the E5 v4 family so that's great. If someone knows the power consumption, that would be cool!

Hello, I want to build a "homelab" and I'm searching for a server, what do you propose me as good options? I need something with at least 64gb RAM, can buy used, and minimum 16vcores.. Around 150$ If you have any good options let's comment below 👇 THX ❤

Hello, I want to self-hosted apps get requests from the users (mainly movies), and then I can find a download for it to move it to a jellyfin server. Maybe after that, it could be a little more automated to download stuff automatically 😃 Thx

Hey, I'm in the way of building my homelab already thinking of some apps to run on it... Truenas in a VM, a Debian VM to run docker. And on this point, do you a have some docker apps recommandations? Write down all the apps that worth looking at them 👇👇

Hi, I would know what are the differences between the vm-designed Kali Linux ISO and the "normal" one. Yes the vm-designed one is as "vm ready file", already configure and all the stuff... but what are the real differences, for example it says on the website that the vm one is isolated, but is this already not the case of a vm? And what is snapshots and vagrant image? thank you

Hello, I'm a bit new to advanced linux and programming stuffs... Can someone explain me why compiling exists and what this process does and how to do it in the principals situations (I've heard that you can use the "makepkg" command). Thx to everyone who replied.

Do I need to install the desktop env when installing a distro or do I need to install blank Linux and install a clean desktop env later? Thank you! 😃👌

I have some concerns about this app and I'm asking if it's useful or not, not the app itself but more the 3 protocols included in it. I2P, DNSCrypt and TOR. What is you opinion?
