This is an abstract curiosity. Let’s say I want to use an old laptop to run a LLM AI. I assume I would still need pytorch, transformers, etc. What is the absolute minimum system configuration required to avoid overhead such as schedulers, kernel threads, virtual memory, etc. Are there options to expose the bare metal and use a...
Given the repeat questions you can find here on basics, it’s kind of surprising there doesn’t appear to be a commonly shared FAQ, website, or book going over some of the basics....
I’m interested in running a service like homarr. This would give my family access to view stuff easily, and I could link to the rest of my services. My main concern is linking jellyseerr, and giving what could be strangers access to make requests....
My current setup is that I have a home server running a number of services that are only accessible to myself on my local network (Jellyfin, Home Assistant, etc.) and a DigitalOcean droplet I rent that runs a number of public facing items (personal websites).

I don’t know if this is the right place, I don’t even know if this will post but I had a Jellyfin server setup with a router and static IPs however with my ISP supplied router I have to use my router as an AP or I’m double natted, no IPV6, the dumb thing is that I can’t set IPs static on ISP router. There’s got to be a...
I’m looking to create an image gallery, to show images I have taken. Is there any software that would be great for this? I am open to any suggestions....
I'm currently planning to build a new server after I discovered what my system uses in Idle. As I have to set up a new system anyways I would like to add a NAS to it to manige my storage.
