  • not knowing what I should do.

    Clarify for yourself: what is your responsibility.

    Not what others think what you should or “should” do. Only what’s real.

    If in doubt, write it down as precisely as possible and then ask friends for confirmation, or a counselor.

    From there on, you can let go of the other things, for which you are not responsible. This will make life easier, and stop the brooding.



  • This will be the spec for my next server. The current one is smaller, and several years old

    I have several different requirements for my server, for example, my son does video editing and needs lots of storage. I want to experiment with more VM’s and containers, therefore RAM and threads.

    Do you think people just beginning could get buy on 4 cores and 8 GB RAM for a while?

    For most people I think they just want to have some NAS and a reliable machine. But please grant them 16 GB, otherwise they would ask why their laptop has so much more than their server :-)
