Ah thanks for the info.

Oh boy, just wanted to get into it. Damn sad, not of course understandable, the developers are only humans as well

I’m very happy with my ASRock N100 (either m or DC). It has sufficient performance for my needs (proxmox with opnsense, jellyfin and various other services) while using very little power

I really like the idea, but for my purpose an open case is a no-go. It’s for my Homeserver and I have two hyper active cats ;) but I was already thinking to get some kind of skeleton like this and put someone around. Is this applicable for micro ATX Mainboards?

I went with .home and so far the problems are within reason

Arrrrr and ahoi o7

Post this in a piracy community and it goes full circle

They don’t have such kits at all but I like the store really much. Thanks for the link!

Thank you, that helps a lot. This kind of hardware introduction is missing on esphome.io :)

Yes exactly, when looking for it I find only Arduino kits. Some time ago I got interested in pine64, was reading a while and bought a soc board plus some stuff around it (like a touch screen and emmc storage). Turned out that particular board didn’t come with the display output and to install a system on emmc you need an UART Adapter, so I ended up buying more stuff, which I was missing. Don’t want to do the same again ^^

With esp32 I have the problem that there are so many different and I don’t see how they differ (except the price)

Really nice project! I wanted to get into esp home for a while, but am missing some kind of starter kit hardware wise. Do you have any recommendations?

Having a reliable drive erasing setup on site is not a thing? That sounds economically better to me

Oh damn. In I was happy 20 years ago about two jet engine like coolers, which ran on 230VAC from a decommissioned computer tomograph

VPN providers usually do not offer port forwarding, so the dedicated IP doesn’t help you. I discussed that in length with a support guy from nordvpn. The dedicated IP is only meant for outgoing connections, so your IP doesn’t jump to crazy, which would cause problems,e.g., with bank logins.
