Seconded - just use Tailscale and SSH.

Ansible!

I second GitLab CI/CD - it's a CI/CD system that just makes sense to me. That doesn't mean it doesn't have its complexities depending on your needs, but I've overall enjoyed my time working with it.

Sorry for spamming in this thread, but if you rely on Watchtower, there's a maintained fork I recommend: https://github.com/nicholas-fedor/watchtower

Not for the latest and future versions of Docker.

This fork works, though: https://github.com/nicholas-fedor/watchtower

There's a maintained fork, fortunately!

Deepseek R1 and OpenThinker are two more examples. There's also SmolLM, which I believe also open sources its training data and ensures proper licensing for it.

I have a similar perspective. I built my own in-home AI server because I assumed if the technology had any staying power, I better learn how it works to some degree and see if I can run it myself.

Jan is another great recommendation!

I'm keeping an eye on Ollama's service offerings - I don't think they're in enshittification territory yet, but I definitely share the concern.

I still don't believe the other LLM engines out there have reached an equivalent ease of use compared to Ollama, and I still recommend it for now. If nothing else, it can be a stepping stone to other solutions for some.

In case you're not aware, there are a decent number of open weight (and some open source) large language models.

The Ollama project makes it very approachable to download and use these models.

There's not a significant amount of discourse suggesting that this is a natural cycle: https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2021/10/more-999-studies-agree-humans-caused-climate-change

Rhetoric like yours adds uncertainty where there is extremely little to be had.

These cycles also perpetrate over millennia, not decades, which is the current scope of detectable change we're dealing with.
