[66.52 --> 72.20] But I decided that I wanted something that was a little more future-proof in terms of expansion and stuff like that. |
[72.28 --> 81.74] And the ITX board that the UNAZ case can fit only has one PCI port, which is taken up with the HBA disk expansion card that I have. |
[81.74 --> 82.46] Right. |
[82.82 --> 90.88] And so if I wanted to put, say, OpenSense as a VM on top of Proxmox, I don't have any PCI ports to add an extra NIC to the motherboard. |
[91.52 --> 99.50] So anyway, I decided to take my desktop motherboard and put it into my Rosewill server case that was housing my Dual Xeon system. |
[99.50 --> 108.08] Basically, all this comes as a result of me finally deciding to break up with my Dual Xeon system and go all in on QuickSync. |
[108.26 --> 112.12] It's worked really well for the last month or so as I've been testing it in the UNAZ build. |
[112.30 --> 113.52] So I'm going all in. |
[113.66 --> 119.28] My home lab's going to be an i5-8500 and my NAS is going to be also an i5-8500. |
[119.28 --> 123.92] So, yeah, I'll have two of those QuickSync capable systems in the house. |
[124.24 --> 136.12] And the idea is that I've got one system that is just sort of always on bulletproof and is running Blue Iris and Home Assistant and DNS separate from the storage, |
[136.30 --> 142.36] which will be running on the other system, which is housing Plex and media apps and that kind of stuff. |
[142.86 --> 146.54] Because the one you take offline most of all is the one with the hard drives in it. |
[146.54 --> 154.86] And it's not like I take it offline a lot, but when I do, it takes everything out because I've got, you know, all of my services running on one box. |
[155.12 --> 163.04] So it's been a pain because I've had to move all of my desktop out of its case and my server out of its case. |
[163.26 --> 171.32] And I've got literally four or five computers worth of parts around me and I'm selling stuff off to people and it's nuts. |
[171.94 --> 174.94] And doing the day job all off a laptop in the meantime, I suppose. |
[174.94 --> 181.98] Yes. Yeah. And the worst part is my IRC bouncer for Red Hat is currently in pieces on the table behind me. |
[182.02 --> 184.08] So I haven't been on IRC all day, which has been a bit bad. |
[184.08 --> 193.24] I was moving offices recently and like literally like my priority was get the desktop, reset up, get everything connected, get it powered on. |
[193.66 --> 194.76] It's got to be online. |
[195.16 --> 199.82] The best part was as well that my laptop decided it was going to screw up and I had to reinstall that today as well. |
[199.90 --> 204.88] So I've completely nuked and paved seemingly everything in this house and I'm starting from scratch. |
[205.22 --> 205.62] Wow. |
[206.16 --> 206.94] That's going to be fun. |
[206.94 --> 210.74] I haven't yet found out what I've forgotten to back up yet, but I'm sure there'll be something. |
[211.36 --> 214.58] And days of setting small little things up as it always goes. |
[214.78 --> 215.02] Yeah. |
[215.08 --> 220.82] Just before we were recorded, for example, I'd turn off Turbo Boost on my Mac so that the fans weren't spinning up. |
[222.02 --> 222.94] Oh, Max. |
[223.02 --> 230.56] Well, let's take a moment and say that this episode is brought to you by the all new Cloud Guru, the leader in learning for the cloud for Linux and other modern tech skills. |
[230.56 --> 233.14] They have hundreds of courses and thousands of hands on labs. |
[233.24 --> 238.44] So get certified, get hired and get learning at a cloud guru dot com. |
[238.78 --> 249.14] One of the things I have in my new office is a bench for projects and I have the new Home Assistant blue hardware on there, which I'm going to be talking about in a little bit in the show. |
[249.14 --> 264.14] But in the meantime, before we get there, Alex and I kind of wanted to do a PSA on the show and talk a moment about HedgeDoc, which might be a solution for anyone out there who wants a really modern Google Docs alternative that you can self host. |
[264.50 --> 266.84] And it happens to be an excellent markdown editor. |
[267.80 --> 271.34] Real time collaborative editing for markdown documents. |
[271.60 --> 272.48] It's great. |
[272.72 --> 275.04] You know, we've used it at JB now for how long? |
[275.14 --> 275.68] Two years? |
[275.82 --> 276.02] Three? |
[276.62 --> 276.88] Yeah. |
[276.88 --> 276.96] Yeah. |
[277.24 --> 278.90] So it's it stood the test of time. |
[279.02 --> 280.50] Battle tested in production. |
[280.84 --> 281.28] Air quotes. |
[282.04 --> 284.80] Use it for all the LUP show notes as well and stuff like that. |
[284.88 --> 285.96] And you and Wes use it. |
[286.22 --> 287.42] And we use it for all the shows. |
[287.58 --> 290.92] And now I use it for a lot of my notes just for JB stuff in general. |
[291.28 --> 294.24] It's the project for formerly known as Cody MD. |
[294.60 --> 300.94] They went through a name change to annoy just to avoid like naming conflicts out there. |
[300.94 --> 303.02] I guess there was another project that's had a similar name. |
[303.02 --> 309.14] And so now it's called HedgeDoc and it lets you just easily collaborate on markdown documents. |
[309.30 --> 312.20] And all you really have to do is get started and you just share a link with somebody. |
[312.44 --> 314.40] And now they're in and they can start editing. |
[314.60 --> 318.50] And then if you create an account, you get kind of like a document library. |
[318.50 --> 326.84] And it supports things like tags, which we don't use a lot, but it supports things that allow you to recall documents pretty quickly or categorize documents. |
[327.34 --> 332.56] It also does real time rendering of that markdown so you can see what you're writing in real time. |
[332.56 --> 334.82] And then it gives you a bunch of shortcuts. |
[335.06 --> 338.76] So maybe you don't remember how to do a table and markdown or embed an image. |
[338.80 --> 340.04] It's got a button for that as well. |
[340.28 --> 340.62] It does? |
[341.14 --> 341.34] Yeah. |
[341.42 --> 342.06] I didn't know that. |
[342.06 --> 343.96] Right along the top there. |
[344.56 --> 344.68] Yeah. |
[344.98 --> 351.10] And Alex, you recently reset it up for us because we were on an older Code EMD instance. |
[351.50 --> 352.06] Yeah, that's right. |
[352.10 --> 354.40] There's nothing more permanent than a temporary solution, right? |
[354.66 --> 354.92] Yeah. |
[355.28 --> 358.46] Wes threw it up on a, was it a droplet or something a couple of years ago? |
[358.46 --> 362.46] We wanted to test it for an episode of Linux Unplugged or something like that. |
[362.46 --> 365.10] And then we liked it so much, we just kept using it. |
[365.30 --> 365.78] That's right. |
[366.14 --> 366.16] So typical. |
[366.56 --> 370.68] And it was just hanging out on an open port with no TLS or anything. |
[370.68 --> 372.74] So I've been wanting to fix that for a while. |
[372.84 --> 378.30] So when I saw the renaming come through on the Linux server image, I was just like, yes, |
[378.50 --> 381.54] here's my excuse to push it to Chris and say, I can do it. |
[382.00 --> 382.10] Yep. |
[382.38 --> 385.38] So yeah, Wes sent me the database. |
[385.84 --> 393.12] He zipped up the Docker app data volume that stores the database and stuff like that, |
[393.86 --> 400.38] span it up in a container on Linode with just SCP the tar.gz file across. |
[401.14 --> 404.54] Unzipped it, pointed the container at the correct directory. |
[405.20 --> 408.60] And I think it uses Postgres on the backend, our setup. |
[409.38 --> 414.34] All the infrastructure, by the way, is open sourced on the self-hosted infra wiki. |
[414.94 --> 415.36] Not wiki. |
[415.84 --> 416.16] GitHub. |
[416.54 --> 417.14] GitHub repo. |
[417.14 --> 420.88] So, but yeah, it just came straight up. |
[421.06 --> 422.30] You know, there was no drama. |
[422.50 --> 426.94] The only slightly tricky bit was that you own the domain name and we had to point the name |
[426.94 --> 432.90] service for the domain name at my Cloudflare account so that we could get TLS through traffic |
[432.90 --> 435.14] working with the DNS challenge. |
[435.14 --> 437.28] Yeah, but I love what we ended up with. |
[438.14 --> 443.06] It's a cute little URL that's easy for the team to remember and it makes it possible to |
[443.06 --> 446.92] share easily with anybody and they'll remember it as well. |
[447.08 --> 452.68] So I think it turned out to be a pretty nice setup and maybe the perfect time to migrate. |
[453.12 --> 458.68] I mean, it seems like it was nearly flawless to import a somewhat stale Code EMD database |
