Proxmox Datacenter Manager is amazing!
Manage your Proxmox hosts, clusters, and Proxmox Backup Server from one dashboard. In this tutorial, I install Proxmox Datacenter Manager in a Debian 13 LXC container, configure repositories and TLS, connect my environments, and explore cu…
A Better Way to Run Terminal Agents!
Is Herdr a better way to manage terminal agents? I put its workspaces, Git worktrees, agent status, persistent sessions, and remote-machine workflow through a hands-on review. I also cover where plain tmux is enough—and when I’d choose a b…
Which Proxmox Storage Should You Use?
Which Proxmox Storage Should You Use? After building a three-node Proxmox cluster with Ceph, the bigger question is whether your HomeLab actually needs that complexity. In this video, I’ll compare local LVM storage, NFS, ZFS with replicati…
Proxmox Finally Runs on ARM! But Should You Use It?
Proxmox VE now officially supports ARM64—but does that make ARM a practical alternative to x86 for your homelab? I installed Proxmox on the Minisforum MS-R1 and tested the familiar workflows: installation, virtual machines, Linux container…
Your HomeLab DNS Needs a Backup // Technitium
Once DNS becomes critical to your HomeLab, running it on just one server creates a single point of failure. In this video, I build a redundant Technitium DNS setup with its native clustering feature, synchronize zones and configuration bet…
My Daily Tech Stack: Apps and Tools I Actually Use
My daily tech stack is not just a list of apps. It is a connected workflow that helps me document my HomeLab, work from the terminal, use AI with real project context, test applications locally, and safely move more complex tasks onto real…
Terraform + Ansible: The DevOps Workflow That Actually Works
Terraform vs Ansible is often the wrong debate. In this video, I’ll explain Infrastructure as Code, compare how Terraform/OpenTofu and Ansible actually work, and use my Proxmox HomeLab as one consistent example. We’ll look at where their r…
One Server vs Cluster: What Your Homelab Actually Needs
Should you run your entire HomeLab on one powerful server, or build a cluster with several smaller machines? In this video, I compare both approaches based on my experience running a large enterprise server alongside a three-node Proxmox a…
My NEW AI Terminal and Code Editor // Orca Review
I tested Orca, a new Agent Development Environment that tries to combine AI terminal agents, code editing, Git worktrees, browser previews, mobile control, and multi-agent orchestration into one workflow. In this video, I’ll show how Orca…
Better HomeLab Secret Management // Infisical Tutorial
HomeLab secrets usually start simple: one .env file next to a Docker Compose stack. But over time, those secrets spread into GitLab variables, deployment scripts, copied folders, backups, notes, and places where they should not live. In th…
VLANs for Proxmox + OPNsense: My Homelab Setup
If your homelab is still running on one flat network, everything is simple — until it is not. In this video, I show how VLANs help split a homelab into cleaner network zones for private devices, production services, public-facing systems,…
I Switched Back to Obsidian (because of AI)
I switched back to Obsidian — not because Notion is bad, but because my workflow changed. Once I started using terminal-based AI agents, local tools, Markdown files, and my own automation workflows, I wanted my notes and project management…
