While not a direct answer to your question, you might want to consider M-Disc as a viable long term storage alternative. Much cheaper than tape and guaranteed to last at least 5 years (safe realistically for at least 10 years)

Always flying. Parking and starting increase wear and tear over time.

Minecraft is fairly safe. Just open the port through your router and point to a dynamic DNS (if your friend just doesn't want to use your external IP)

Just install truenas scale on bare metal. Then side install proxmox on it (since scale is just Debian). You can have zfs having direct access to the disks and have VMs, LXC or Containers running on it.

It's a complete misunderstanding of what's going on. The way the scheduler switches applications to ensure they all get prioritized equally was built with 8 cores in mind. All cores were always used.

If you have multiple services, you will need to use a reverse proxy. For instance, let's say you're running a website, a document repository, nextcloud for personal cloud, etc. They all listen on port 80 for http and 443 for https. How will you set up port forwarding to all of these servers? That's where reverse proxy comes in. You can specify specific subdomains and redirect to the correct servers.

You can also do SSL stripping and other stuff using reverse proxy.

But if you're using only one service and use VPN to connect to your network, you don't need a reverse proxy.
