Most of them are very small.
A couple of them are not as small.
And in addition to Home Assistant, in addition to Piehole, and it's been working great, and I'm really, really happy with it.
Proxmox has a bit of a learning curve, but it's also really good.
There's a listener to the show whose name is escaping me.
I'm so sorry.
I don't have it in front of me, but I will link their website.
I believe I brought him up earlier.
He has a bunch of really great information about Proxmox and Home Assistant and these sorts of home labby things.
So I will put his website into the show notes as well.
But between all these things and between Alex's, you know, tutorials on YouTube, I've been able to stand up this little Proxmox node.
I have now decommissioned every single one of my Raspberry Pis.
The one in the garage got decommissioned a couple of years ago because there's a home assistant integration for my garage door opener.
So I didn't need that anymore.
The one in the bedroom, uh, or I should back up.
The one in the office was running pie hole and little else that got decommissioned once the pie hole moved to the knock.
And then finally the one in the bedroom was running the little led attached to my bed and that got decommissioned for an ESP 32, a dev board that's running ESP home.
Uh, so that's driving the led, which I presume takes even less power than the, uh, pie zero that it was previously running it.
So I'm really, believe it or not, mostly simplifying my life in terms of computing equipment.
