7th gen, Skylake. You can get the bee link 304 with more ram if you want. Didn't think I would need more and the 16GB is soldered.

I'll see when I got it set up more. The i3 304 is essentially the successor to the n100/150/200 CPUs.

Cisco runs mostly Linux. Juniper uses freebsd and Linux.

I would install latest ubuntu server. I use dockge that provides a simple web interface to manage docker compose files, most projects provide a ready to use compose file that you can copy paste. Then you can use tailscale for remote access, expose to the internet via your router, or expose services with Cloudflared tunnel if you have your own domain, I use cloudflare zero trust just to avoid exposing the service directly, requires login via email code.

Can easily do this with AI now.

Could give it a try, currently happy with Jellyfin. What clients will you support?

Cloudflare zero trust also works for this, nice if you already use them for DNS and proxy. You install cloudflared tunnel, expose select ports as a service in zero trust, then whitelist email addresses that can log in to zero trust and when they a one time password to log in when they try it. When logged in you get a page showing the services available as clickable links.

Vibe coded a python script to configure Cloudflare, it just looks on docker annotations so I can select which containers to expose.

Just upgraded from 7th gen NUC to a new bee link with the new intel Core 3 304, 16GB ram, 500GB ssd for $469 (EU price), my NUC was struggling with jellyfin and some 4k content. The old NUC cost $410 in todays $ without memory and ssd, so maybe $550-580 with those included.

About to retire the NUC I used for 10 years running arr stack, jellyfin, home assistant, pi hole and a few more containers. Bought a new bee link mini pc, new Intel CPU, 500gb SSD and 16gb ram for less than $500.

Most of the time projects provide a ready to use compose file. I use dockge that provides a simple web interface for compose configs, so just paste in the compose file there and run it.

It's not whataboutism when you point out the hypocrisy in US foreign policy and actions. Even the Soviet example of missiles in Cuba which happened because US put missiles in Turkey, then US claiming that their missiles are "defensive" while Soviets are "aggressive". Ludicrous hypocrisy of the US continues to go on.

Plenty of dentists that are on a fixed salary and wouldn't profit from it.

Still cashless in practice, and largely has been for 20+ years so its not a surprise for the elderly.

Hikikomori — Wed, 14 Oct 2026 09:16:28 +0000

Yup, its nonsense, nobody to very few is going back to cash but may keep some cash at home as recommended. I've actually had $100 in my wallet for 3 years that I haven't used because I never pay with cash, sold a table to an american couple and they didn't have Swish.

Asus had a bunch of their own 9.8 CVEs, I don't think they worry about NSA or China, as most consumer brands.

Datacenters wont bring much jobs or money after its built though. They'll use up a lot of power though.

Excellent but expensive in my experience. If you don't want to pay you can usual take a toll free road, but then you pay in time.

With the other strait closed boats need to go around Africa taking an extra month, this is already causing a shortage as trips take much longer.

Edit: tanker hit a mine today in Hormuz, going great
