I should have clarified I don’t mean for the day, I mean for a week plus.

    stuff on ulv soc hardware i just leave on 24/7. those are < 10w or so each with a load, so nbd.

    anything i want to be able to get at remotely also stays on, obviously, as does anything required for the internet access and routing to get to it.

    everything else is stuff that even gets shut down at bedtime unless it’s “doing something”.

    everything gets shutdown and unplugged if i am going out of town for more than a weekend and have no need for anything to be on. which has happened a whole one time in the last 25 years.

      So if you need to have access to files or containers but will be gone more than a weekend would you shut it down and take files with you, forget the container servers, or leave them going?

        if that ever happens, i’d cross the bridge then. but i’d probably shut everything down. if i’m in ‘vacay’ mode and not at home, i wouldn’t care about connecting to stuff at home. if i’m in ‘work’ mode, i’m taking shit with me i might need or putting it on space at the office before i leave.

        i don’t have what some would consider ‘vital’ services running. like alert notifications systems for various ‘detectors’ (co, power, flood, fire, etc), security cam recordings, and what not.
