&lt;p>I&amp;rsquo;ve always been fascinated with computers and technology, and it&amp;rsquo;s been my outlet since I was very young. Ever since I&amp;rsquo;ve started University (and a little while before that) I&amp;rsquo;ve been exploring networking, server administration and security.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>I first started exploring servers in 2022 on a Dell R420, &lt;a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/homelab/comments/t9pa13/dell_poweredge_fan_control_with_ipmitool/" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">probably the loudest computer to have in your living room&lt;/a>. It did however allow me to explore UNIX through the BSD based &lt;a href="https://www.truenas.com/" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">TrueNAS&lt;/a> and virtualised deployments. From there, I eventually built my own server, on which I installed &lt;a href="https://www.proxmox.com/en/" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Proxmox&lt;/a>. This led me to dive deeper into ZFS, basic networking principles such as firewalls and containerisation through docker.&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
