I sent them an angry email and you should too.

Looks nice, gonna try it later

I personally think this is a better idea than an old laptop. Easier to work on if the fan or SSD ever dies, and the cooling is a little better than any cheaper laptops I have worked on. It also wouldn’t need to be a NUC, basically every PC company makes a SFF or 1L sized computer, I’m partial to the Lenovo but the Dell’s are pretty nice too. I have about 8 Lenovo that are used as mini servers between home and work, on 24/7

I understand what you’re saying, but I think the user counts and usages would matter big time. I used to run it on the smallest plan DO offered, but I haven’t in a few years now. No idea if the usage requirements have grown over time, and that was just for 2 users. I know a lot of people run it on a NAS in a VM or container, that’s not exactly a dedicated machine either.

Look into digital ocean. They have pretty cheap hosting, like $6 a month last time I checked. You used to be able to get a month for free too. If it looks like a good option I can probably rustle you up a referral code.

I have to use SQL at work enough that I just use that for any database I need for personal projects, almost always MariahDB. Helps me stay current on my skills I guess.

I have one of these in a box somewhere, maybe I should dig it out and see if the battery is still good.

As someone who just started their container adventure by setting up rootless podman on arch, it wasn’t terrible but I think I agree. I think I’m going to go check out some vanilla-ass docker until I can understand everything better.

I’m no expert, but as far as I can tell yes. It also seems a bit easier to have a rootless setup.

I also miss the days of fat dumper laptops

jjjjjjjjj

That’s a big oof
