  • Its just a dock, so no.

    It works with most laptops running Linux, but its still just a dock. That gigabit port is just a usb-c/thunderbolt device, it is not a full machine. Same with the video, its just DP alt mode, there is no GPU in there.

    If you want a small form factor machine to use a server, look for a used tiny/mini/micro workstation.










  • That are cloud-hosted, matching how many of them are operating today? No, I wouldn’t say there are, at least none that work well enough for that at this point, and are supported with mobile apps that work well. If you know some, please, feel free to share.

    I’d say it can easily be addressed with excellent open source fat clients (libreoffice for example) though. But either option is going to take substantial IT work to transition, and I think from a government and business perspective outside the US, it should be prioritized.







  • Here are a few of my favorites, some of which are exposed, some are not:

    • Mealie - Recipe management. Import recipes by URL is my favorite feature, then I tweak and try it out (I have to be gluten free, so this makes it easy to track what worked for us).
    • Homepage - a homepage to put quick links to all of my stuff, neat and clean.
    • Grafana - for visualization of current data of my systems, paired with Prometheus.
    • Technitium DNS - for all of my DNS needs.
    • Jellyfin - for all my media, let’s me pick out what my kids can see/watch without me having to look over their shoulder, along with being a great looking solution for me.
    • Immich - photo and video management

    All of these (and more, this is just a dsmple of favorites) run on Proxmox. I mostly use LXC over docker, personal preference.

    Home Assistant is probably the single most useful for me, already mentioned, just about everything at home is automated/controlled through there.
