Morning #nostr

I've been quiet lately.

Finally migrated my raspberry pi to proxmox.

Got the #Bitcoin Super Node running

What is a proxmox and what's the big diff?

Proxmox is made for virtualization.

You can run any OS side by side without having hardware dependencies, thus treating the OS has a file.

My main concern for LND was availability and redundancy.

on proxmox you any image

and you can use every desktop PC for that

so the computer got more CPU and RAM

Dead cheap, already running multiple system.

If only I had more RAM... 😆

Thank you, squire

cool, i can see the bitaxe and a router and the APC

but where is the node?

The node is in the box, originally to protect the 2 PIs.

It is a barebone PC with a terrible cable management. So far refurbishing all my drives.

yeah a good case and cable management is very important for a decent node

Yeah, the work isn't done yet.

My main struggle was my inetrnet speed connectivity, it was terrible with the previous router'

The major improvement is now I can zap in a sec instead of a minute ⚡

cool, happy you could fix it

That's mine. 😉 #Proxmox rocks.

It is a #Bitcoin #Nostr #ckeck_mk #node. Many more for the future. 👊

Is the firmware open-source? Why would one not trust pi bit trust this?

By trust, I meant by holding fund on LND.

The drive attached to my pi crashed once while having pijuice attached to it. The pi was still alive but the drive gone 🥶

A good and reliable UPS is important

Was it easy to migrate your lightning channels?

When I can be arsed, I am going to change it too. I'm tight as fuck though!

Any old laptop and cheap mini PC could do the job. In my case, even though I really like #raspiblitz, I never fully trusted my pi.

Yeah, if I had an old lappy. I have looked at old mini PCs but a mixture of apathy and frugality keep holding me back. My node (umbrel on a ras 4) has been running for 4 years with little problem. If Umbrel was open, I'd not change.

GM cool 😎

Why did by you trust pi? And why do you trust this one? I'd tge firmware open-source as opposed to pi or IRS just performance based opinion?
