Bike

I love riding a bicycle. I built my bike myself, choosing every single part one by one. It is a titanium touring bike with 29-inch wheels, an Enviolo hub, and a Gates Carbon Drive belt.

I enjoy riding around the city and try to do it every day when the weather allows. I usually avoid riding far outside the city, but in a few years I plan to do solo or group cycling trips.

Homelab

My second hobby is homelab. I run Nginx Proxy Manager, Immich, Paperless-ngx, Homepage, Gitea, Vaultwarden, Transmission, Jellyfin, and some small websites and mini-projects.

On the hardware side, I have a Mac mini M4, a Mac mini M4 Pro, and a Windows Server build on AM5 with a lot of NVMe storage and even two Intel Optane 5801 E1.S drives. I also have an AM4 Linux mini PC, four routers, and a MacBook Pro M1, plus several VPS instances and domains.

All of this runs 24/7 and can handle a power outage of about 10 hours. I should also say clearly that I do not have a smart home and I am against that idea for many reasons.

In my free time, I study house construction technologies and all the details around them. It is not certain that I will build a house in the next 10 years. The more I learn about it, the less I want to build one.

I try to spend the rest of my free time with my family.
