You’re correct, imma let voice-to-text take the blame there.
- Comment on What's the real danger of opening ports? 6 days ago:
If you are trying to access several different services through the internet to your home network, you are better off setting up a home VPN then trying to manage multiple public facing services. The more you publish directly to the public, the more difficult it is to keep up with everything; It is likely needlessly expanding your threat exposure. Plus you never know when a new exploit gets published against any of the services you have available.
- Comment on rootless backup or rootless podman volumes? 1 week ago:
Sounds legit to me. Padman could be seen as a separate Unix system or the programs to live in, and therefore would have its own set of user and group IDs. As long as the created files have permissions that are different from The host permissions and they will still be inaccessible without some permission manipulation.

This is not the simplest answer at all but FYI you can also self host gitlab
- Comment on Confirm passthrough understanding for proxmox 4 weeks ago:
It even sounds like this is handled on proxmox’s side, no need for iommu stuff
- Comment on Confirm passthrough understanding for proxmox 4 weeks ago:
I did just find this quote on reddit:
A GPU can only be passed through to the a single VM at time though Proxmox can pass it through to multiple containers (LXC) but they can only run Linux instances.
I’ll have to look more into this but sounds promising

- Comment on so I'm thin skinned and cannot get over established coworkers lazying around massively while I toil. Kudos to all of you who can. I want out. 4 weeks ago:
This is always a management issue. If the so-called lazy persons are not your management then You should be having a discussion with management about them, though I would still make great effort to not make it trash talk. You should make sure your hard work is being recognized and compensated for.
Of course, if the lazy persons are management, then the job itself was doomed. Remember that most people quit managers, not jobs.
I am not saying you should stick around, just keep this in mind for the next round of employment.

AWX is basically Ansible as a service.
Wait. That sounds dumb. Hosted and centralized Ansible?
Idk. Brain not braining. Just saying, it’s worth checking out.

I doubt this would fit your use case but wake-on-lan could keep power draw stupid low when nothing’s being used, at the cost of boot time.

I heard something about cloudflare not being stream friendly. Guess jellyfin doesn’t count?
- Comment on Leaving GitHub. Music server alternatives? 2 months ago:
Clarifying, your looking for a new music streaming service that has a code base not hosted in GitHub? Otherwise it sounds like you are somehow hosting your music in GitHub.

- Comment on Hypothetically, if the police seized your electronics (for an unrelated investigation) and found out you have a lot of pirated content, what would happen? 2 months ago:
Not a lawyer, but my understanding is if they find illegal stuff during discovery for an unrelated charge, you can be charged for that as well. One caveat would be if the original search was illegal, so say you see some police in public and you start recording them, then they come and take your phone away as evidence for the crime of recording police, which everyone knows is not actually illegal. They did not have the right to take your phone to begin with so anything they find on your phone then should be not admissible as evidence against you. Again, not a lawyer.
- Comment on Realities of hosting a tor relay node at home 3 months ago:
I feel like I should mention the Snowflake browser plug-in, which to my understanding, creates a relay in your browser basically.
- Comment on Encrypting without full disk encryption question 3 months ago:
Yes, you can have docker scripts decrypt a drive/storage. You might also consider an encrypted home partition separate from the root partition, or user space encryption of your home directory.
- Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top? 3 months ago:
I think when people want to remotely decrypt fde the usual advice is installing dropbear SSH to remotely enter the password. Sorry for not providing links but it should be easy to find.

- Comment on IPv6 for self hosters 4 months ago:
Thanks for posting this. The idea of individual services having their own IP address had never occurred to me and would solve so many issues.

I have not tried Matrix yet but I hear it’s a good replacement, fashioned more to the likes of Discord but I think it has everything you’re looking for

- Comment on Using DVD slot for second 3.5" drive? 4 months ago:
Occasionally some manufacturers use some weird proprietary connection but usually both DVD drives and 3.5" disks use the same SATA connectors. Heck, even in the old IDE/PATA days you could use the same connection on either.
So yeah, the connection is the same and probably will plug and play without any configuration needed

- Comment on How to self-host a distributed git server cluster? 5 months ago:
So, to be clear, GitHub is not git. Git is intrinsically distributed. GitHub is basically a repository Management service.
I did some googling for about 10 seconds and afaik GitHub does not support any type of self hosting. I know you can selfhost gitlab , but I don’t see a project for either GitHub or gitlab called spokes.
Not knowing anymore than this about what you actually want to accomplish, my advice would be to just figure out how to run your own git server (without the management fluff) and do a 3-2-1 backup scheme. You could of course also create a gitlab instance with an HA set-up, plus backing that up to the cloud.

I just bought some PoE hats for my rpis, and have a managed PoE switch; rumor is, this combo basically translates to rPi WoL.
