I run one huge media server, one backup, three mini optiplex server (one public, private, and local), and one off site.

  • Is there a cheap Pi or something similar I could bring for the optiplex servers and then just let go of the others until I’m back?
  • Do I just throw everything in a VPS except for local stuff?

    I am administering several other docker servers and a k8s cluster from the command line, so I’m well aware what I’m missing 😀 - in this case, I was hoping for a higher wife approval factor, which is at least partially there.

    Thanks for the portainer on unraid tip. I set up portainer itself yesterday but will have to get around to migrating the 30 or so already deployed containers to it.

        I’m taking care of a newborn and doing some FOSS work, so that project has been deprioritized for now 😅

              Haha that looks big! Did you start that? Why they over Vaultwarden?

              I know that’s hard! First few months were hard for me. Is it your first?

                I prefer KeePass over Bitwarden because it is just a simple database file, less that can go wrong (no server component).

                I am the original author of the Rust library for decrypting and modifying KeePass databases.. The current best implementation of KeePass, KeePassXC, is written in C++, so there could theoretically be security-relevant memory corruption bugs in it (though the developers of the project are excellent and I don’t think it is super likely). Rust is a language that does not have that class of issues by design, so I thought it would be interesting to see how far I could get. So far, I am still having fun and adding features bit by bit, and it is quite cool to me to be able to write one codebase that deploys to Windows, Linux, MacOS, Android (potentially iOS), and any modern web browser.

                Our son is fortunately very relaxed, he eats and sleeps a lot so I can get some coding done while he is sleeping. Germany has decent parental leave, so my partner and I are both not working the first two months of his life.
