Sorry, forgot to reply. I plan to reply then 5 minutes my head drifts off 🙂

Anyhow, my plan is to get below £1 per day electric usage. Pi’s are the only way I can achieve this. I am going to use a few pi’s around the house to achieve this. But I am also going to build a special pi system into my own custom-designed case with customised components. Something really nice and polished that can serve as everything. That is everyday pc, media centre and server, retro gaming, hi-fi, Freeview, DVD player and so on.

Great to see you back Bob. PM me if there is anything forumite can do for you going forward.  I thought I was loosing the plot when I saw your donation “Thanks” today as was 100% sure it had been cancelled but I then noticed it was a one off.

I dont have any hardware, the site is not being hosted from under the stairs. 🙂 I guess I am missing something.

I’ll be finishing most of it off tonight. The site will have mostly the same things as before but in a toned down and much less resource hungry.

Much easier to work on as well with the dark colour.

As you can see, just enough to get the forum functioning. I’ll do the rest when I have had some sleep.

Its not really about server specs and donations and costs although all three are a minor part of it. I want to just strip it back now so less management is needed. I am trying to get all my ducks in a row so everything going forward is cheaper and just easier.

Some changes being made. Firstly I am going to be stripping back as much as possible of the site and try and make it is less resource hungry. Once this is done I am moving the site to a new server. This is due to the noticeable drop in visitors and obviously costs. I am cutting back on everything I can. I am looking to replace my greedy, power munching PC’s and laptops with something like PI 4’s and lesser models for lighter network stuff.

Anyhow, I will be dealing with this site this weekend so expect some issues and down time.

It’s not cancelled, it’s just paused!

It’s just heartbreaking. Not sure what else to say at the moment.

:good: You’re welcome. The donations helped. The site has not done too bad this year. No downtime from what I can remember. I’ll be starting 2021 with a video court hearing on the 6th of January.

Well like the general feeling, hope it’s a better one for everyone next year but I think we all know what’s coming after the New Year. None the less Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year from me and the cats.

As for me, same as the rest of the year, talking to the cats. :wacko:

Oh well, never mind. I looked on the back of the case and it just say’s out so Zorin must be confused. It was only so I could listen to my cd’s over Christmas. My separate amp is broken and the cd player is optical out only. And it goes without saying that both my cd/dvd drives are broken too.

I keep going through this thread and still can not make out what you’re wanting. This is my fault, not yours. Anyhow, I’ll just type some stuff.

Local email server: Webmin is my pick. It mostly sets it all up for you.

IMAP: If you want an IMAP address I can set you up a forumite email address for free i.e drezha@forumite.co.uk

Transfers: In most email apps, create a local account, drag all your emails into it, and then do the same to move them to a new account.

A few little jobs were some of them but the next few weeks is more promising. But my main project was rebuilding my business site plus as mentioned retro gaming, burning a ton of furniture in the garden so it looks somewhat normal and a few other inner things. Nothing Important.
