Why not use Joplin? Open-source, very flexible, I run it on a bunch of devices and sync it via a EU cloud provider over S3 in an encrypted bucket…

I’m imagining Data from Star Trek being deleted…

Captain, this is most illogical.

Seconding Hetzner. I recently went on a bibge and moved as many services away from US based companies over to EU based ones, Hetzner being my choice for webhosting, S3 storage and VPS (which I rarely need thanks to my homelab).

Besides a bit of the fediverse, I’m back at reading blogs via RSS. I’ve never stopped using RSS and it’s just so nice.

Yeah, there are quite a few Hall effect controllers on the market, from what I’ve read they’re quite good…

I can understand that. Maybe check the list I noted above, I’m pretty sure quite a few can do handwriting recognition (doesn’t the iPad’s native handwriting recognition work with Obsidian?). Though I understand the ‘don’t fix it if it ain’t broke’ inclination as well…

To follow up on this, I'd look to network segmentation as another useful security barrier. I've just started playing around with VLANs, but the way I plan on setting things up is to have individual VLANs for services, management and IoT, with the LAN for all other user-land devices. On top of this you add strict firewall rules to what can talk to what, on which ports, etc. So all devices on the network can do DNS queries to my two DNS servers, for instance, but things from my services VLAN can't reach anything outside of this VLAN...

There are boatloads of various note-taking apps, both open-source and not, that are much better than OneNote. Take a look at https://noteapps.info/features, where you can browse by specific features you're interested in. I've just recently switched from running DokuWiki for my homelab documentation to Joplin and I'm really loving it so far (I've setup sync to Hetzner's S3 service).

Seconding this, I'm currently running Proxmox on 3 small NUC-type PCs (two Dell Optiplexes and a Topton from AliExpress). The Topton has a slower Celeron, the two Dells have a i5-6500 and i3-8100t and are both very snappy running a few different containers and VMs (including HomeAssistant).

I remember playing both Morrowind and Oblivion with like a ton of notes on how exactly to level up my character, not to min/max but to keep the game from scaling the difficulty too much.

I’d rather see a remake of Morrowind over Oblivion, though. I have the game on GOG but I don’t have the time in my life to go through all the mods to make it playable (especially getting the journalling system up to par with modern games).
