Home assistant in a podman container uses only about 400mb memory and .05% of cpu on my home server.

Put Linux on your mini PC and you can run dozens of services on it without it breaking a sweat.

Can recommend the Linuxserver.io version -- I found it easier in podman to implement nvidia hardware decoding with the linuxserver.io version than with the official image.

unfortunately there's no rhyme or reason to the naming. which came first: bookworm, buster, or bullseye? They should just use numbers.

It was 1993, so not super impressed, but I needed a tex distribution, and PC dos tex sucked. The best option was a Nextcube, but that was a little out of reach being as much as tuition. Or use the x terminals in the crowded computer lab (shudder).

But I was able to keep that slackware install up and working just long enough to get my thesis done.

Separating the function of the backend out from the frontend

this is the way.

home server in basement running almalinux, which provides mythtv, plex library, homeassistant, calibreweb, podcast management

desktop/gaming pc in home office

chromecast/google tv in living room with kodi, plex, other streaming apps, steam link for streaming games from downstairs and using bluetooth xbox controllers
