Homelab is an environment where you can tinker and play around with technology without the fear of breaking things or taking down a production environment. Some people consider virtual machines on their desktop to be Homelab. It has many tentacles from there, such as networking; it could be focused on hardware: "There's just so many ways to go" Tim Ferriss talks about how he got into homelab in this week's episode of The Daily Discussion.
Ok Homelabbers, it’s time to unite! Join Adam and his new friend Techno Tim for 1.5 hours of homelab goodness. From networking and WiFi, virtualizing Ubuntu running Docker containers, to Home Assistant and automation, building a Kubernetes cluster, to gutting a perfectly good machine just to build exactly what you need to run the ultimate Plex server — that’s what homelab is about. Let’s do this.
