UTM is your friend in lieu of Virtualbox

If you’re using a government run DNS, why not use the CIRA ones instead? https://www.cira.ca/en/canadian-shield/

Commander Taco?

Self hosted Sunshine and Moonlight is the way to go.

Maybe it’s time to move on from 12v being the “high power” standard in PCs to something higher. Similar to how cars are slowly shifting away from 12v accessories. 48v would cut the current on the wires and connectors significantly.

It never got over you

To add to this….ive added a layer of protection against accidental deletion and dumb fingering by making each year of my photos archive into a separate zfs dataset. Then each year I set each dataset to read-only and create a new one.

Manual, but effective enough. I also have automatic snapshots against dumb fingering, but this helps against ones I don’t notice before the snapshots expire.

I did (am doing) something very similar. I definitely have issues with my indexing, but I’m just ordering it manually by year/date for now.

I’m doing a little extra for parity though. I’m using 50-100gb discs for the data, and using 25gb discs as a full parity disc via dvdisaster for each disc I burn. Hopefully that reduces the risk of the parity data also being unreadable, and gives MORE parity data without eating into my actual data discs. It’s hard enough to break up the archives into 100gb chunks as is.

Need to look into bacula as suggested by another poster.

You’re absolutely right, I couldn’t agree with you more. My bad on “judging a book by its cover”.

I probably should tone down the old curmudgeon stuff. I’d just recently realized how much I missed very good content by Mentour Pilot just because his titles and thumbnails were also very YouTube algorithm-y, but his content is fantastic. Just need to accept this is how good content avoids being buried under all the brainrot junk.

Thanks for the reminder, cheers.

I actually do know Scott’s stuff very well and respect him alot, ever since his KSP days. But this title is still pretty click baity, and I’m rather disappointed that he along with a lot of other good YouTubers all have been increasing the baity titles along with the Face + outrageous background thumbnail thing lately just to work the algorithm.

No there isn’t. The Moon’s gravity is very lumpy and there are very few stable orbits. It’s extremely unlikely anything passive will orbit the moon more than a couple weeks. This is stupid clickbait.

The universe does seem rather badly designed these days

I think the universal consensus is that outside of a very specific use case: multiple VDI desktops that share the same image, ZFS dedupe is completely useless at best and will destroy your dataset at worst by causing to be unmountable on any system that has less RAM than needed. In every other use case, the savings are not worth the trouble.

Even in the VDI use case, unless you have MANY copies of said disk images(like 5+ copies of each), it’s still not worth the increase in system resources needed to use ZFS dedupe.

It’s one of those “oooh shiny” nice features that everyone wants to use, but will regret it nearly every time.

Neat……but dnsdist would be my go to tool for doing this instead. It’s actually built for it, has more options, and probably doesn’t have as many host networking docker deployment limitations.

Big elk stack?

Just an A record, you just need the domain query to resolve to your IP.

No, it’s Trump first, America is just a piggy bank for him to plunder.

I was in a similar boat, and ended up buying a used convertible tablet from eBay instead. Much more Linux friendly, 12” Toshiba Dynabook. Might be a better option.

Between the gerrymandering, electoral college, stacked courts in case it was close, the whole thing was rigged already. All the land outvoted the people.
