In time,

I hope to set up a tiny self hosted instance running on a Raspberry Pi. Containing my personal bubble of interests. In other words it will be my virtual cyber essence.

My cyber-sole/soul if you like, the best bits. Calling my Lemmy/Fediverse instance, Operation Horcrux.

IT is a dream. Expecto Patronum …

Thanks for the feedback guys. ❣️🫵🙏 I am calling my soul server OPERATION HORCRUX. Really in honour of the presently unfashionable Black Hat Death Eaters …

Obviously I hope in time to have several instances. Possibly on a quantum or organic neurone chip if available. Maybe in another dimension/dream world.🤩

But for now before I am overtaken by my dank side:😇

Have a raspberry pi 3 available, could not find the right cable for the pi 4
Trying to use my existing hardware for my first piece/peace/instance
Am plugged into home ethernet and a relatively fast fibre optic cable service

My next tasks: To prepare/format a micro SD card and find a one piece raspberry pi solution. Not sure if I want a Virtual Box/Machine solution. Probably a dedicated Pi Server would be best? I could then white list a savvy friend and MAYBE family … in which case would maybe start with a HTML page and passwords to be given out personally. Wot fun! (I iz such a computer nerd)🤗

Sadly only Herpo the Foul and Tom Riddle know how to make HorCrux. Fortunately I am not daunted by fantasy … 🤓😁🦞
