Perfect application for NocoDB in my opinion. They have a relationship view like the one shown in the screenshot and a form builder for easily adding new data. Setting up the relationships is easy. I find it much easier to use than DBeaver and the GUI is more modern.

The data is accessible by programs such as DBeaver, and they have a REST API too, should you need it.

I have my Vaultwarden public so I can use it at work too, but my firewall blocks all external IPs except my work's IP.

Hey! My home server is an HP T630 with a GX-420 GI as well, but only 4 GB of RAM. I upgraded from a Raspberry Pi 3 and it's been awesome. I'm currently running 18 Docker containers on it without issue. I use Jellyfin on my primary workstation that has my media instead if this server, but I run things like Paperless, Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Gitea, Wallabag, Pi-hole, NocoDB, and many more. It's been great, I think thin clients are a great low-cost, low-power solution to x86 home servers.

I paid around $40 or $50 USD for mine, so $10 sounds great!

Let me know what questions you have. I can try throwing Jellyfin on it to see how it performs too.

I don't like Notepad++ as a text editor for code, but my god is it amazing for taking quick notes. I've been searching for a Linux equivalent but haven't found it yet. My favorite Notepad++ features:

  • Opens immediately.
  • Never loses data, and I mean never - unsaved files are restored after crashes, reboots, power outage, you name it.

For jotting down quick meeting notes in a hurry, it's great. The settings are messy and hard to configure though, so I use Vim/Helix for writing code (hobbyist, not professional).

To be fair, the first time I tried running local AI (and it actually worked), I was so surprised that I actually unplugged my Ethernet and tried again. I'm still surprised, but it's possible for the massive amounts of training data to be compressed to a model under only 10 or 20 GB.

I use Mailspring. The only thing missing from Mailspring for me is seeing what folders my emails are in when I run a search. Otherwise, it's the only non-CLI client I've found that let's me use the keyboard to select multiple emails and move them to a folder, something I do in Gmail.

If anyone knows of others, let me know! I've tried Claws, Evolution, Geary, KMail, and Thunderbird in addition to Mutt and aerc in hopes of finding something to replace Gmail.

Well put. On top of the 5 points about the target audience above, in order to make a sale they also have to:

  • Have heard of the product
  • Decide to buy it (many will research competitive products)
  • Spend the time to actually place the order

For this reason, I use kebab case for directories. But because I agree underscores show spaces better, I use snake case for files.

I agree and use Arch as well, but of course I wouldn't recommend it for everyone. For me, having the same distribution on both server and desktop makes it easier to maintain. I run almost everything using containers on the server and install minimal packages, minimizing my upgrade risk. I haven't had an issue yet, but if I did I have btrfs snapshots and backups to resolve.

I wrote my own program, filetailor. It's similar to Chezmoi but uses inline comments instead of templates for machine-specific lines. This allows me to make edits directly to my local files and then sync those changes to other machines.

I also use Ansible.

They continue to be great on newer GPUs, although the first ~6-12 months might have some small bugs. I have really enjoyed my RX 7800 XT. It's working perfectly now, but I had an issue specific to newer GPUs where every other boot would fail (Arch Linux). It was a known issue and fixed in kernel 6.7.3 (I think) and issues like that seem to be rare.

I just moved from Neovim to Helix. I think it's worth considering, especially if you don't know the keybindings yet. Plus, Helix is probably easier to learn.
