Here I’ll briefly jot down my thoughts, so I don’t forget them. Earn money automatically HomeLab’s first way to make money is through cryptocurrencies. They mine for cryptocurrencies like Monero using their own equipment. The core idea is to utilize solar energy and wait for Monero to appreciate in value within one or two years,…

Today I’ll mainly be documenting the selection of hardware and systems for HomeLab. hardware For hardware, I prioritize the Raspberry Pi. Because the Raspberry Pi has low power consumption, it can be powered by a power bank or solar energy. During power outages or natural disasters, it can be powered via a laptop’s USB port…

Document server Everything related to office work is on my Orange Pi 3B development board. Everything related to entertainment is on a mini-PC with an x86 architecture. After all, for games, video/audio decoding, music, etc., the x86 architecture has a better ecosystem and requires higher power consumption, while a document server doesn’t. WordPress is also…

This configuration struggles even to run a WordPress blog. I need to configure virtual memory just to keep WordPress from becoming unresponsive….

Cloudflare service interruption Because of issues with Cloudflare services, most websites that rely on Cloudflare are inaccessible. For example, I encountered a 500 error on a forum website I frequently visit, clearly indicating a Cloudflare error.

Raspberry Pie cm0 Its key feature is support for the Raspberry Pi Lite Server system (64-bit). However, due to its limited 512MB of RAM and 8GB of eMMC, desktop-based systems for Raspberry Pi are almost entirely unsuitable; only lightweight systems without a desktop environment are recommended. Programming System There are many precautions and prerequisites for…

Because the Raspberry Pi CM0 has relatively limited memory, I need an application with less than 30MB of RAM that can display text and…
