&lt;p&gt;Every Gaming Linux France show is an opportunity to dive into fascinating discussions on a variety of topics. This episode, available on YouTube, covers some captivating current topics:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For a few weeks now, I have had the pleasure of taking part regularly, as a homelab and privacy columnist, in the monthly Gaming Linux France show. This unique discussion space brings together Linux, gaming and open-source enthusiasts to explore a wide range of topics, from the latest technological innovations to more philosophical questions.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Nextcloud: From Theory to Practice with Gaming Linux France</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/nextcloud-from-theory-to-practice-with-gaming-linux-france/</link><pubDate>Thu, 09 Jan 2025 13:28:58 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/nextcloud-from-theory-to-practice-with-gaming-linux-france/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Gaming Linux France (GLF) community keeps proving that a passion for gaming and a commitment to open source can go hand in hand. Through a series of insightful videos, Cardiac and I explored the many benefits and possibilities offered by Nextcloud, a powerful open-source solution for online storage and collaboration. A self-hosted solution that homelab enthusiasts will love :)&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Saving Bandwidth with a LanCache Server for Gaming (Steam, Epic, Battle.net...)</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/saving-bandwidth-with-a-lancache-server-for-gaming/</link><pubDate>Wed, 18 Sep 2024 10:06:04 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/saving-bandwidth-with-a-lancache-server-for-gaming/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In modern gaming, games are getting ever larger, and so are their updates. Every download can quickly saturate an Internet connection, especially when several devices share the same bandwidth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take mainstream and AAA games, which easily go past the 100 GB mark!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The bill quickly adds up if, like me :), you have several devices used directly or indirectly for video games. I count four: my desktop PC, the living-room &amp;ldquo;console&amp;rdquo; running Bazzite OS, the Steam Deck and, more recently, a mini PC for remote play.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>CasaOS: Your All-in-One Home Hub for Simplified Homelabbing</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/casaos-your-all-in-one-home-hub-for-simplified-homelabbing/</link><pubDate>Wed, 27 Mar 2024 12:12:06 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/casaos-your-all-in-one-home-hub-for-simplified-homelabbing/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are a beginner, or if, like me, you have friends who want to get started with homelabbing, I cannot recommend CasaOS enough.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most people are interested in a Plex server, or maybe a password manager, but rarely in the complexity that can come with setting up self-hosted services.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Split DNS: Reaching Your Services by Domain Name, Inside and Outside</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/split-dns-reaching-your-services-by-domain-name-inside-and-outside/</link><pubDate>Wed, 27 Mar 2024 10:21:35 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/split-dns-reaching-your-services-by-domain-name-inside-and-outside/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;h4 id="why-should-i-care"&gt;Why should I care?&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Split DNS is a clever strategy that lets you reach your self-hosted services the same way, whether you are on your local network or on the Internet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In short, when you are at home you can access your services through their IP address and port number. But an IP address is harder to remember than a domain name, and a domain name also spares you invalid certificate warnings.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Decoupling My Homelab Infrastructure</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/decoupling-my-homelab-infrastructure/</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Mar 2024 13:04:38 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/decoupling-my-homelab-infrastructure/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;For technology enthusiasts and homelab architects, the quest for a resilient and efficient home network never ends.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Through trial and error, I have refined my homelab infrastructure into a finely tuned system that prioritizes both reliability and modularity.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The core of my approach is strategic decoupling, a principle I have used to make sure critical services are not affected by single points of failure.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Planning Your Homelab: A Complete Guide</title><link>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/planning-your-homelab-a-complete-guide/</link><pubDate>Tue, 26 Mar 2024 12:34:47 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://blog.liberix.net/en/posts/planning-your-homelab-a-complete-guide/</guid><description>&lt;blockquote&gt;
