Currently all containerised running on a debian VM on a Rockylinux Qemu/KVM hypervisor. Initially I was using rocky+podman but inevitably hit something I wanted to run that just straight up needed docker and was too much effort to try and get working. 🤷
Hardware is an circa 2012 gaming machine with a few ZFS raids for all of my Linux ISOs. It lives an extremely tortured existence and longs for the sweet release of death.
Toying with the idea of migrating it all to on-prem virtualised kubernetes cluster using helm charts to manage the stacks and using NFS mounts for persistent storage because I hate myself (and to upskill I guess)

Love keeping that old tech alive! My Core 2 Duo died a couple of years back, if I could figure out a way to leverage old mobile phones for some sort of project I would.
I’ve always called it ‘ghetto IT’ personally.
I’m not a huge fan of PC fans if I can help it, since I know they’re one of the points of failure (and they’re also loud)
I like the idea of using old smart phones too, I figure if you used something like a nexus 5x maybe you could pull it off with a powered USB-C hub?
My dream was to find a way to leverage them as poor man’s IP camera or something …one day…
I think there’s already apps for that.
