I’ve also been running nginx in an unprivileged LXC container. I haven’t used fail2ban, specifically, but crowdsec has been working without issue.
You can mostly just treat an LXC like a normal VM.

I know you said you decided against it, but perhaps reconsider USB?
I was facing the same dilemma a few months ago, and ultimately decided that trying to break out those internal connections wasn’t worth it. The problem with these tiny PCS is that they are not designed with arrays of drives in mind. There’s typically not enough room in the case to properly add an additional drive, so you end up running the sata cord through a hole in the case and using an external drive and power supply anyway.
USB on the other hand, is intended to connect to an external device. The connectors themselves are more robust and they can even supply power.
I use my external drive for data I don’t have to access constantly, like templates and backups. 90% of the time it’s just sitting in standby. If you need to access a lot of data constantly, you might start to notice the slower USB speeds; if you can segment your data, keeping your “working” files on the internal drive and just use the external for storage, you probably won’t notice the USB at all. It’s certainly not the perfect solution, but with your particular restrictions, it might be the better tool for the job.
The other option would be Network Attached Storage, essentially a low power computer that just exists to allow other computers to access its storage. You can probably find an old, cheap desktop PC for sale locally, likely for less than it would cost you to bring out those internal ports and buy a drive enclosure and power supply.
I’m using cloudflare as my nameserver and the free API seems to work just fine with ddclient.
I do occasional smaller “takeouts” and haven’t had any issues.
I have an “automatic album” (or whatever they call it) where all the photos of friends and family (even pets) get automatically added to it. Then I can just request a “takeout” for that one album, since those are the photos I actually care about. It’s a much smaller download than the entirety of my Photos account.
I have a couple Libre Office files where I document the non-technical stuff for my own quick reference, like network layout in Draw, or IP and port assignments in Calc. I use a git repo to store and organize podman scripts, systemd unit files, configs, etc. Probably not the most elegant solution, but it’s simple and FOSS.
Reverse proxy is Nginx Proxy Manager.
I have the older “Google WiFi” mesh and I was able to install OpenWRT on them. You might want to see if that’s an option for yours before spending money on a new system.

Another option would be to redirect logs to a ramdisk. That’s what I’m doing on a RPI to try to minimize writes on the sd card. The biggest downside is that you lose your logs when you power off the device, but if the alternative is not having logs at all, I think it’s still a better option.
Of course, installing a proper drive is still the best solution.
It never stopped working for me, besides the outage the other day. I’m guessing it’s because I’m a mod for a sub. They said from the beginning that they wouldn’t break things for mods, and surprisingly, it seems that they’ve kept their word on that.
port the Pokémon to Pokémon violet.
After beating the game, I spent the rest of my time trying to break it. 😁.
Missingno, ■'m■, infinite items, lvl 200+ Pokemon and various other glitches have wrecked havoc on that save. I’m not sure Violet can handle it!
Well, if you add in the hours I put into Yellow and then Gold, I might be pretty close. Lol
I have! That actually is a restored file.
I used to back up my save and then start new games to help friends collect the starters. After I traded away the new starters, I’d restore my original save and keep playing, so that save has been backed up and restored a number of times along the way.
I’d like to actually get a dumper at some point so that I can more securely save the file, but for the time being it’s saved on the same Mega Memory Card I was using back then.
I think so.
I can’t actually remember, as I have had it for about 25 years. I assume I probably replaced it at some point, but batteries in the first Gen games tend to last longer than the later gens, so it might actually be the original.
Jerboa for now.
Definitely switching to Boost ASAP, though.
Still working fine here, too, but only on my two mod alts. My non-mod account just gets some kind of “request exceeded” error.
I know I’m a bit late to the conversation, so I don’t know if this is still helpful… But I have a camera with “AI Detection” built into it and it appears to send alerts via its ONVIF connection. I’ve disabled motion and other detectors on my NVR (AgentNVR) and instead configured it to just wait for an alert from the camera itself to start recording. It’s been working quite well.
My initial plan was to use a coral TPU and frigate, but the Coral/Gasket drivers appear to be pretty old and I couldn’t get them to work properly, myself.
