Hello!

I attempted self hosting a while ago, but it wasn't a very smooth experience because I had no wifi, no ssd, no room and no time. I want to get back into it, and I was wondering if I would want to build a new pc. I think it's a hp compaq 6200 pro Here are the specs: I3 2100 3x4gb ram 250gb +8tb hdd

I would be selfhosting alot of projects, and will try alot of new things constantly, but I definitely want: Jellyfin Immich Password manager Pi-Hole Minecraft server(modded) Qbittorrent

And I'd possibly want: File server(Nextcloud is cool, but it's a bit too complicated for me) Gitea Code-server Llm Url shortener

Computers here are quite cheap, and I could find an old office desktop with 10th gen intel for about 100€ with relative ease. I could also build it myself, with an old office cpu and motherboard, but that would cost more. What do y'all advise? Can this all be done on a budget setup, excluding the llm? Is upgradeability a problem in office computers?

Thanks in advance!

Hello pcmr!

I have found a "broken" 4080 second hand for 200 euros in my neighbourhood. After doing some searching, I think it was a misconfigured bios and and incompatability with corsair's software, based on the description. They mentioned games crashing, corsair aio rgb not working until iCue is opened, screen flickering and random repeated reboots. They said the issue persisted on their friends computer as well after trying. Is this worth the risk? Would love some advice!

Thanks in advance

It looks like ubuntu touch on the fairphone 4 is nearly perfect, and the features that don't work I won't miss. I'm very tempted to buy a second hand fairphone 4, but I can't really find much on the experience of ubuntu touch. How do you install apps? Are there repo's that I can look at? And is it just branded ubuntu touch, or will any ubuntu apps made for arm work on ubuntu touch? If anybody has some links or personal experiences they could share, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot in advance!

I'm considering buying a pixel 7(a/pro) or pixel 8(a/pro). I was wondering if the longer updates for the pixel 8 impacts grapheneOS, and if that means I should go for the pixel 8. And have any GrapheneOS users here had any issues that they wouldn't have had on Android.

Thanks alot in advance!
