First Time Using Lemmy
First Time Using Lemmy
I live in upstate New York, I have a general class license, and this is my first time using Lemmy (or any federated social for that matter).
My mobile rig is a VR-N7500 "50W" VHF/UHF. It uses Bluetooth control from my phone, and it does APRS.
My QTH rig is a Xiegu G90 on a 40m EFHW powered by micro solar. I mainly do FT8, as well as a little VARA HF WinLink. (I'm a bit mic shy and my antenna setup isn't that great.)
I'm interested in POTA (and maybe SOTA).
Hope to meet some friendly folk!

That's very cool!
It's cool to run servers at home.
Its not cool. Its very hot. Keeping them cool is a constant battle! haha
I enjoy it. Media server, home automation, virtual desktops, and now Lemmy!
For cooling do you use air, water, or both?
I want to run a home media server. Something like Jellyfin probably. Maybe a Minecraft server too.
I also interested in rolling my own VPN. So far I've just use an SSH tunnel for traffic tunneling.
I just use air cooling at the moment. I might have to get a little A/C unit for the closet though.
I run a Plex server, but I will likely be switching to Jellyfin soon.
Look into Kasm I am actually using it instead of a VPN because I can log into it, spin up a browser instance, and browse all of my local network with it directly in a web browser anywhere. I can also spin up a terminal in the browser and SSH into any box I need on my network.
For your hosting, I highly recommend Proxmox. It can do full on virtuals or containers and the interface is super easy to use.
For a little while, I had a tiny web page running on a raspberry pi at my house.
I also used that raspberry pi for the SSH tunnel.
Raspberry Pi 1 B+
Love Raspberry Pis. Recently burned up a Rpi4 and Im still sad about it... Still need to replace it.
I want to grab one of the new models and make a portable station out of it for doing digital work. Mostly for stuff like POTA.
