I thought of a weekly thread to post about what you set up lately, what kind of problems you currently think about or are running into, what new device you added to your homelab or what interesting service or article you read.

So I decided to just try it. Maybe we find a format that works! It doesn't have to be me, feel free to create this post on Sunday if it's not up already.

I moved my Home Assistant from Proxmox VM to a older Lenovo Laptop we had stored as we thought the charger wasn't working. We are preparing to move so it was my job to check that laptop as well as 2 others. 2 I am not going to use and e-scrap those later this week after yanking the drives out (I don't trust anyone with my old drives). It turned out, the charger works just fine! I just installed it early in the morning (Midnight) and so far, it seems just as responsive if maybe more than what I had on the Proxmox host so that's a win on my end. Plus, I was able to give it the full 8gb of RAM it has instead of the 4gb I gave it in Promxox and somehow it's showing lighter use than what I had in the VM. 2.8gb vs. 4-5gb it reported from the Home Assistant Hardware details when in the VM.
