  • This is insane. You want to send kids to the frontline? No? Then how is this going to help?

    If your army needs more soldiers, maybe try a compulsory military service again. You don’t need to get little kids all excited about guns, the military and the possibility of war.

    Look at those happy faces and sparkling eyes, they’re all feeling so strong while fantasizing about real combat and asking themselves if they would shoot someone. Horrible.

    I’m not saying that we (speaking as a EU citizen) don’t need a strong military to defend ourselves, we definitly do. But teaching young children how to operate assault rifles is not the way, it’s dangerous symbolism at best and bleak warmongering at worst.









  • Having a solution that works for you is never a bad thing.

    Now it comes down to what you want to archive: Do you want something that just works? Great, you’re done - now go on and do some other things that you like, that’s perfectly fine. Or do you want to learn more about servers, virtualization, linux, networking and selfhosting in general? Then there are a million ways to get started.

    I’d suggest to setup a little lab, if you haven’t already. Install Proxmox on your server and run CasaOS inside a virtual machine. Now you’ve learned about hypervisors and virtual machines. Afterwards you could create a second virtual machine to play around - maybe install debian and get used to the linux cli. Install docker manually, run some apps using docker-compose. Now you’re already doing some stuff that CasaOS does under the hood.

    The possibilities are endless, the rabbit hole is deep. It can be a lot of fun, but don’t force youself to go down there if you don’t want to.
