Once configured and up and running, it can also serve as the foundation of your home lab, smart home, and self-hosted empire. One of the many questions you may have when looking at the best way to manage all of this is "Which protocol is best?" Server Message Block (SMB) is one of the available options and is likely what you've come across and used with Windows systems.

The Blue Origin New Glenn rocket lifts off at Launch Complex 36 in its second launch attempt at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station on November 13, 2025 in Cape Canaveral, Florida. | Miguel J. Rodriguez Carrillo/Getty Images SpaceX has the most internet-beaming satellites in its constellation, but the competition is coming, and now Jeff Bezos' space company Blue Origin, has announced the TeraWave network.

Podman solved problems I didn’t know I had with Docker

Docker has been my faithful companion ever since I jumped into the self-hosting rabbit hole, and for good reason. It has tons of third-party tutorials to help beginners get accustomed to containerization, with most FOSS tools including detailed deployment procedures for their Docker images. And that’s before you factor in...

Stop putting “Smart” tablets on your walls; use physical b***ons instead

When first implementing smart home products into your home, you may be aiming for that sci-fi fantasy feel that you see in a range of different movies. You want the ability to walk up to a sleek wall, mount a tablet, and control your home. It looks super cool in...

You want the ability to walk up to a sleek wall, mount a tablet, and control your home. It looks super cool in photos and videos, but in practice, it is a usability nightmare and can be expensive.

Your productivity system doesn’t need AI, it needs fewer features

Productivity tools keep getting “smarter”. Things like auto-tags, AI summaries, suggested links, and predictive dashboards promise to save you loads of time. But in practice, these features often end up adding more clutter and friction, which completely contradicts the whole point of a productivity system. Every suggestion or auto-classification requires...
Productivity tools keep getting “smarter”. Things like auto-tags, AI summaries, suggested links, and predictive dashboards promise to save you loads of time. But in practice, these features often end up adding more clutter and friction, which completely contradicts the whole point of a productivity system. Every suggestion or auto-classification requires a decision, and when the tool guesses wrong, you’re left having to fix it. In a way, AI tools can make you feel like you’re constantly babysitting your setup.
