So I'm wanting to get into self hosting, and I could use some advice! I'm not sure which device to use for what. There's a lot I'd like to do, and I don't know how I should divide everything up by use case.
Should I have a dedicated network device for security, handling domain blocking and VPN?
Roughly how much processing power should I be devoting to this?
And how should I deal with gaming in two locations? (It seems like it would be annoying to have to start up my desktop PC every time I want to play games on the couch. Is it viable to just run everything from the PC and use a thin client for desktop and couch usage, or is latency going to be a huge issue? It's probably not good for stability, either.)
My list of devices I can use:
Desktop PC, RPi, Intel compute stick, and an old laptop. I'd be willing to get more hardware, but not looking to spend big.
The full list of what I'd like to do:
Pihole/adguard, wireguard VPN (I'd like to route my phone traffic through my home network. Currently using TrackerControl, but I'd like tracker/ad blocking with a regular vpn too, and it would also be nice to be able to manage things remotely)
HTPC interface, with the ability to play games from desktop or couch
Home assistant (Maybe with voice recognition? That's a low priority though)
Nextcloud and/or NAS, Media management with *arr, as well as some easy backup solution
And some headroom for a few other miscellaneous things. (Minecraft server? Website / email? All low priority.)
Sorry for the long post, and thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. I wrote out as much as I can to hopefully avoid the XY problem. I just don't know where to start, and I don't want to set everything up and then immediately realize I should have done it all differently!
There's no set plan or prescription, and no guide. You just pick the smallest set of resources you may have lying around, install what you need on it, then don't think about it until you need to. That's it.
Don't go out and buy a bunch of hardware in anticipation of some big thing you MIGHT want to do. Just use the hardware and tools you actually need to use, then move on until you actually do need hardware for a specific something.

On a related note, I don't think he thinks Trump is "smart", @Joyce Donahue, I think he thinks trump is the path to power.
Vance is not an idiot, he's evil. And unfortunately, he's comparatively smart. What he lacks, but Trump has (at least among some people whom I barely understand) is charisma.
I think Vance realizes he can never make it in politics on his own because of his personality, but he attaches himself to Trump because Trump innately knows how to wield power.

Je pense que je ferais tout pour voir ce film même si ça sera douloureux
D’abord parce que j’adore l’acteur Roschdy Zem que je trouve excellent
Dans indigènes …. Waou même Jamel Debbouze y était excellent puis l’histoire aussi elle prends aux tripes
Mais là…. On a tous vu ces images terribles 😢 moi je pleurais devant ma télé
L’occident et surtout la France est responsable de ce qui est passé
Nous avons lâchement lâché Massoud, le commandant Massoud
Je me rappelle qu’on avait refusé de l’accueillir !!!
Lamentable comme toujours
Tout ça parce que Massoud ne correspondait pas vraiment à nos critères
On voit aujourd’hui le résultat !!!
Les afghans et surtout les afghanes nous remercient 😡 et l’histoire nous jugera
Tout ça donne la gerbe 🤮
Et après nous sommes surpris et vexés
Mais comme t ? Mais pourquoi on nous aime pas ?
À ton avis connard
Il faut voir ce film finalement
Un devoir de mémoire
Oui oui j’ose

🐭 Paris: Man booked the whole of Disneyland to marry 9-year-old girl there
A foreign "groom" had the entire Disney park in Paris blocked off for two days - in order to marry a child. The "bride" was just 9 years old.
A real incident, confirmed by the police and Disneyland itself.
The guests were already lined up. Everything was booked. But when the "bride" arrived, the staff were left breathless. A child. NINE years old. Immediate cancellation. The police were alerted by staff and a total of four people were arrested.

INFO LE PARISIEN. Ce samedi, le parc d’attractions devait accueillir un mariage. Mais à l’arrivée de la « future mariée », de nationalité ukrainienne, les équipes de Disneyland ont découvert qu’elle n’était qu’une enfant.Guénaèle Calant (Le Parisien)
@Kuenga> They also said that they were not ruling out that the event may have been a prank, with the guests attending as possible 'extras'.
> A police source later told Le Parisien that the groom had said that he was the director of a production company and that they were shooting a video. ...
> 'So it wasn't a wedding, but a staged wedding filmed with around a hundred extras. They privatized Disneyland Paris, pretending it was a real wedding,' the prosecutor's office later explained to AFP.

Sometimes, when I'm feeling down. I laugh knowing they worship at a shitter. Much like Indians in that way. Oh, and they try to bang it.
The delusion of the jew is pretending that a well known wall of a Roman fortress, their eternal oppressor, is what they pretend is their Temple, so they pray to it.
They hate Jesus THAT much, they will pretend a Roman wall is theirs.

I wonder even what's point of buying it? And isn't NTFS 3g is open source version created by community by reverse engineering ntfs
EDIT: if anyone need paragon tools for checking NTFS I can share them easily I extracted them from their apk which they were selling on Google play and there tools for almost any architecture x86,MIPS,arm
I dual boot and and I have 4TB HDD that is also formatted to NTFS. I can access both from my Linux system, and move files between the two, with ntfs-3g all the time. I even have them both automount on boot and have never had an issue.

That we are currently in a black hole.
There's a famous argument for the existence of God which goes like this:
1. Everything has a cause
2. The universe exists
3. Therefore there must be some cause of that existence that is outside of the bounds of the universe.
This argument works until you ask what created God? So there has to be something eternal. As an atheist, my opinion is that the universe is eternal. Most people will then point to the big bang, saying "well the universe can't be eternal because we know it had a beginning". But that's not entirely true. The big bang was a singularity, meaning all the mass was concentrated into a point. Not a point in space; space or time doesn't even make sense in a singularity. It's just the farthest back that we can possibly know about. We know of one other type of singularity and that's a black hole.
My crackpot theory is that everything ingested by a black hole over it's entire life becomes a universe within the black hole. The timeline would be entirely separate from our timeline and they would see the origin of their universe the same as we would. They would have the same vast space that we would no matter how large the black hole. It would follow that we are in a black hole with potentially infinite black hole layers above us.
