± CentOS uses SystemD non-optionally. :P
± It's Ubuntu, or more specifically Mythbuntu, because it doubles as a DVR/media centre PC. It's better for hooking up to the TV this way.
– The whole thing should probably be more containerized, but the equipment is old and doesn't have a lot of room for overhead.

I wasn't aware of that, I never used that distribution.

Ah okay, but... you have your computer plugged into a TV ?

How old ? I'm curious to know what equipment you use?
-Lone, but I have a cool signature idea.

Well, the computer I'm posting this on is connected to a screen, but the other computer is indeed connected to the TV. It basically does everything I need to be always-on, i.e. recording television on-demand (though that sometimes screws up too, think it's a hardware problem), my webserver and my mailserver.

The present form of the server is a mish-mash of components from a few different computers that I built way back in 2008 and 2009, so quite old. The motherboard (read: old Intel chipset) can't handle more than 4 GB RAM, which is the source of my main concern about overhead. Though, thinking again, containers are supposed to have much less overhead than more traditional sandboxing, I guess. Don't know if it'd make much of a difference though.

You should get into Raspberry PIs, you can have all the parallel processing power you need, little space, and you could even make a media center with it, although if you plan to make a Media Center I would advise you to choose the UDOOx86
You have a pic of your installation ?

A Pi (one of the newer models) would be good yeah, I guess. Still, I don't like the idea of having everything on a USB hard drive, since USB is, well, slow…
– My LAN is routed through the house's power wiring, which osccasionally locks up or goes ridiculously slow.
+ At least it works, even though when you think about it it sounds like some kind of witchcraft! Technology!

I even wonder what you do plug into your computer now.
- I've met someone I haven't seen since a year now, he told me I look a lot older, did all that crap had such a negative impact on me ?

Happened to me a few years ago, but it was a crow. For a while after that I just wanted to shoot every crow I saw. :P

Boring jobs have something cool, if you're a computer consultant as an example, you basically only have to handle random events and you spend all your day doing pretty much nothing when not asked to do something and here you can make it cool... :hehe:
- However, it is still a great responsibility, and can get kinda stressing sometimes...
