Is there a reason to avoid Nvidia cards on Proxmox still?

You probably only need the iPad. The iPad is great for giving you access to most stuff until you get home and can do the more serious work. If you absolutely must do your work away from home, get the Macbook Pro, because iPads are great, but as you mentioned, they don’t have a desktop OS, and that’s a limiting factor.

ClamAV has a maximum size for files that it will scan, which I believe is 20MB. I can’t tell if clamxav has the same size limit baked in, but it might! So it may not be the best solution if you have large files in your system.
First things first: Synology as a beginner NAS is perfect! It’s what I recommend to everyone that is getting started out. So good move there.
I think you should get a four-bay NAS. You don’t have to put four drives in it; you can put two drives in it and have an upgrade path for later. Plus the drives are far easier to install and remove. The processor will also be better in a four-bay NAS, which will give you more options if you want to play around with a docker container or run a VM.
To answer your questions:
However there is already at least one third party app that plays SBS video just fine.
Which app?
You can also convert SBS video to MV-HEVC, which is arguably a better 3D format, and use the built-in player.
I investigated this and couldn’t find a tool to do this. Which tools have you seen that do this?
Totally unintentional. I’ll edit it.
Porkbun is sort of the darling of the self hosting community. I settled on them after doing a huge comparison of prices and features of all the different registrars available to me. Porkbun was by far the best.
Readers will be available for $99
Has anyone here used a different VR headeset who also needs reading glasses? I use readers (I had laser eye surgery, which made me need reading glasses much earlier than usual). I tried the Meta Quest 3 over the holidays and was surprised to discover that I didn’t need reading glasses to see things “up close.”
Don’t forget spatial video. A minute of spatial video is approximately 130MB. 256 GB is going to fill up fast.
What bothers me is that Apple doesn’t document its features very completely. Here’s an example:
In CarPlay, I do a lot of navigating using Apple Maps. I discovered years ago that I could say “Details” to Siri to get the map to zoom in to allow me to see upcoming turns. I could say “overview” to get it to zoom out to show me the whole trip on the map. Very useful! I had to discover this feature by accident, though. As far as I know, there’s no button in the interface to do this, and there certainly isn’t a list of commands that Siri users can use, CarPlay or otherwise.
Even more infuriating is that this feature was removed about six months ago. Does it exist under some other spoken command? Who knows? Apple doesn’t document anything!
How advanced of a calculator do you need? You can do a lot with the search bar.
Seeing people recommend nginx proxy manager, I’ve tried to set this up but never managed to get the certificates to work from letsencrypt (“internal server error” when trying to get one). When I finally got it working a while ago (I think I imported a cert), any proxy I tried to setup just sent me to the Synology login page.
I think WebStation is causing this. I just investigated my Synology NAS and discovered that the default web portal is redirecting ports 80 and 443 to the synology login portal (which lives in ports 5000 and 5001 depending on whether you use SSL or not.)
My homelab started with a Synology NAS as well. At first I put a few VMs on the NAS, and then I expanded the homelab to include a single PC. I almost bought a NUC instead. I’m glad I didn’t, because the NUC only offered one advantage: it was small. Beyond that, the PC was better in every respect. More expandable, more configurable, etc. I decided to get a really small PC case intended for home theater PCs to get some of the smallness offered by the NUC and called it good.
I give them three months before the new society collapses due to arguments over age of consent.
Thank you for going to the extra trouble to explain this! This is why I love communities like this.
I fully admit I’m not the most talented linux person, but you say that you created an smb share on Unraid, but you mounted it as if it were an NFS share. Is that just a typo, or could that be the root of your problem? I could imagine Synology Drive not letting you interact with files in the mounted folder if the permissions and ownership weren’t set up right.

The Homelab Show frequently explores the topic of security in a homelab. I’m a big fan of Jay LaCroix, since I learned how to use Proxmox from his fabulous Proxmox course. They touch on security from the broad to the specific, and talk about incidents, as well. You do have to search through it to find the episodes where security is a topic, but they are there.
This looks amazing!
If you have Hue bulbs, you can buy little radios that attach to your light switch (or replacement light switches) that will still operate your lights when the server is down or the network is unavailable. It’s a worthwhile upgrade.
