It turns out that without photos (in immich), my filesync requirements are much smaller and I could get away with a cheap cloud storage offering.

Still using sync thing for obsidian notes and pc <-> phone stuff.

The oceans heating up is half of the problem, that’s the cause of a lot of the extreme weather increases.

My phone almost always has a Vpn on to my home network (gets me pi-hole goodness)

Other than that, very occasionally use the Firefox built in one + the one for my “Linux iso” torrenting container, that’s not on most of the time though.

I assume the difficulty is the refrigerant plumbing? And integrating between different systems?

They might mean ground source heat pumps?

Yes, Finland was a bit of a shock!

Going for a naked swim in lake after the sauna was nice though.

Has a nice UI, let’s me mix and match disks, let’s me host docker containers plus a VM with gpu pass through.

All basically out of the box. (Ok - Pass through was a bastard) All for a one off price.

I don’t know if there are other options that let me do all of that, unraid has always been the one mentioned.
