Nice read. I did similar hacks in the past but I have less time lately.

Pipewire fixed some Bluetooth issues for me.

You should open a PR. 🙂

It’s not automated. I just have the most important commands to fix/rebuild my sever in case of disasater.

I don’t save all my documents. Just my self-hosting, servers infraestructure notes. I don’t want to have the recovery intructions in the same machine I’m recovering

The only thing I save in Google Drive are my notes just in case of disaster.

I use just 1 Traefik instace to manage all my subdomains, certificates, RPs, IP filter, rate limiter…

I recommend you all to switch to Pipewire. Most bluethooth problems are fixed.

Alpine uses musl libc + busybox as GNU replacements. They have less code base and they are more lighweight. GNU code is really old and some power users say the code is bloated and poorly maintained.

I read that too but I had 2 external cases (fatenc and yottamaster) for more than 7 years and 0 problems.

Custom build. Intel Nuc i5 + USB 3.0 external Raid 5 case with 3 HDD + Router/Switch. The Intel nuc is really power efficient ~10w. It’s comparable with RPi 4 ~5w but 3 or 4 times more performance with hardware video decoding.

I understand. There are Anker power banks for laptops with 65w. They should be more efficient but I don’t have data about the long term use. I guess the battery will last less than the UPS batteries.

There are some OS like Alipine Linux that relay on the Linux kernel but don’t use GNU userland.

I will have a power load of 35W 24/7 for years. I’m using the unloaded power consumption as a proxy to measure the UPS consumption/efficiency. In my case a total power consumption (UPS + 35W load) of 40W will be acceptable, 55W won’t.

The output is DC 9V/3A - 12V/3A - 15V/2,4A - 19V/1,89A. I will need extra adapters for other voltages like 5V.

Thank you for the link but I can’t see the unloaded power consumption in the specifications.

I read about different UPS topologies and the model you suggested is “standby”, the most power efficient => https://unifiedpowerusa.com/ups-topology-optimal-environment/

But some users report the “Cyberpower ValueUPS 600” (similar model) consumes - idle with nothing connected - 20W exactly
