I have some misconfigurations I need to sort out between my router, switch, and endpoints. That’ll be a project for this weekend though, not tonight.

The Playlist Playground beta creates Apple Music playlists using AI based on text prompts, but doesn’t understand genre, time, or much of anything.

@thibaultamartin @bpg *adds this to the homelab backlog of things to check out*

On my Proxmox, I used to create VMs for k3s with massive disks to have enough room for my volumes. That was before I learned about the Proxmox CSI Plugin

TIL that Proxmox can provision Kubernetes Persistent Volumes

Proxmox can spin up VMs to build a Kubernetes cluster, but it can also provision Persistent Volumes for the cluster, opening the door to volume snapshots and better storage management.
