- nsomaru 6y agoI’m starting with a NAS for my music and select media so I can get off Spotify and Netflix. After that it a GPU gaming server that will train ML models for me too. The NAS will store datasets. Finally, maybe next cloud.
- thejosh 6y agoi'm always curious what people are training ml models on, and what they use it for?
- darknavi 6y agoStreaming your own media (Plex, Kodi, etc.), hosting your own password manager (BitWarden), home automation (Home Assistant, Node-RED), torrent seed box, a VPN so you can remote into your own network (OpenVPN), security NVR (Unifi Protect, Shinobi), a general file backup server (which can mirror to Google Drive, DropBox, etc. automatically with RClone), etc. Really just depends on how much work you want to put into it. Pretty much any service you use online you can self-host a version of it. That's not to say I don't pay for any online services. I still use Google Drive, Netflix, and Spotify, but self-hosting is getting me closer to "cutting the cord" with some of these.
