Goofed Home

I'm using my home server and coding to rebuild my brain after a stroke.

Please forgive any typos, my brian is still very much recovering. I’m not promoting anything cause nothing I’ve made yet is really worth much to anyone but my self,and everything is far from polished. I’m just sharing what I’m doing. In November ‘24, I had a mid level stroke. I’ve had issues with motor skills, headaches, and short term memory, but for the most part I’m doing quite well. For the last 6-8 months, I build a home server, (AMD 3700x, 64GB of RAM, 6TBNvME, and 2x 12TB HDD, old NVIDIA 2060. I setup up Jellyfin, ripped our 400ish Blu Rays, DVDs, and TV Shows. Setup Navidrone, and ripped our CDs, Home Assistant, AudoBookshelf, ConvertX, MeTube, and several other apps mostly discovered here. I also wrote my own app to track our large physical Media Collection that has a few api calls for pulling info about the items., a dashboard app in the style of the old iGoogle, and I’ve started working on 2 other apps, one to track medical information like blood pressure, glucose, doc appts, care team, medications, etc. The other app is for TTRPG GMs to run games that will basically be a digital GM Screen with a dozen or so tools.

I was a web developer for 20 years before the stroke so I had some previous entry level experience with this type of stuff, but not on this level. Mine was more for like corporate websites. My doctor believes this process has indeed sped up my recovery significantly. So this is just a post to say thanks for this community that has given me tons of ideas for things to try.

I hope you get better! Im not active in community, not even a tech savy. I also didnt come up with something to share with community but I like the homelabing hobby (or movement if I can call this like that).

Jellyfin is such a badass app! I borrowed huge DVD’s collection from my grandpa (he had a store back in days) so I have like a bunch of movies only on my Pi5 with Radax (wchich is my only homelab device lol).

Again. I hope you get better fellow stranger from the internet!

Been there done that. It’s much harder than it seems from this post. Your brain suffered severe damage, getting it to work again as good as possible takes huge amounts of energy and will power. Good job bro! (Watch yourself, don’t over do it)

That appears to be a troll account from my instance that was created just to do that, but by that behavior they are almost certainly a hexbear. They’ll never change

One might think so because the image is https://hexbear.net/PPB, but the person was responding to defenders of Zionism. So a Hexbear-hating Zionist seems more likely.
