- Comment on choosing a NIC for OPNsense 1 day ago:
Wouldn’t all my consumer grade switches need to support vlan tagging? I’m pretty sure a bunch of them dont
- Comment on choosing a NIC for OPNsense 1 day ago:
My proxmox “cluster” is a bunch of old laptops with a single consumer grade NIC in each. I wanted to isolate the VM network from my main home network (have it on a different range) while still allowing all the VM’s to transparently talk to each other regardless of which physical host they happen to be on.
Could I have achieved this with normal vlans? I wanted an overlay network on the VM side but they still need to use my main home network to get internet and I only have a single physical interface.
The OPNsense VM routes between the two networks (the virtual vxlan within Proxmox + my physical home network)
- Comment on choosing a NIC for OPNsense 3 days ago:
Proxmox requires subtracting 50 from the MTU so it can store it’s vxlan information in the packet.
From the docs:
Because VXLAN encapsulation uses 50 bytes, the MTU needs to be 50 bytes lower than the outgoing physical interface.
It’s super annoying but I couldn’t see another way of having vms be able to talk to each other transparently regardless of which node they are on
- Comment on choosing a NIC for OPNsense 4 days ago:
I just attached the host NIC to OPNSense and then have a vxlan in proxmox to make the VM network separate from the rest of my home network.
The OPNsense VM acts as a router between the two networks. I host all my shit on the VM network under *.internal.legit.tld and use LetsEncrypt + Traefik to issue SSL certs which work without having to load a CA cert everywhere because I own legit.tld

- Comment on Homarr - A modern and easy to use dashboard. 30+ integrations. 10K+ icons built in. Authentication out of the box. No YAML, drag and drop configuration. 1 week ago:
Yep this for me too. Thankfully VSCode allows comments in its settings.json / launch.json files but most programs use strict JSON which doesn’t allow comments

I used to think that until I figured out yaml and now yaml isn’t so bad.
It helps that text editors know what yaml is now so insert spaces when you hit tab etc
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 week ago:
Ah, yes, you’re right. If the focus is just on not giving money to Google then SponsorBlock is unnecessary.
However, I also find most sponsored segments obnoxious as hell so SponsorBlock still helps with making the YouTube experience better in general
- Comment on AI Is a Total Grift 1 week ago:
What’s currently being marketed as AI proves that there’s always someone who can do your job worse for cheaper
I’m just waiting for the “cheaper” part to change. Surely these VC’s will want to see some ROI on the stupid amount of money these hosted models cost. There’s no way the subscription fees being charged cover the actual cost of running the models, so something will have to give eventually
- Comment on Microsoft Is Now Being Sued Over Sunsetting Windows 10 1 week ago:
Nvidia on modern Linux (Wayland) is garbage and I’m buying AMD next time.
Like seriously, people will try and tell you “oh you can install the proprietary driver easily now and they’ve come a long way”
Sure, but it’s still garbage. I can’t even full screen a video in Firefox without a it crashing and a bunch of apps simply refuse to work without shitty environment variable hacks to drop back to software rendering
I’m not a noob either, I’ve been using Linux as my primary OS since 2008

Nah win2k pro was really, really slow compared to xp
- Comment on YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround 1 week ago:
I mean, Firefox + uBlock Origin + SponsorBlock makes YouTube usable without giving Google more money
- Comment on Why Americans Can’t Buy the World’s Best Electric Car 1 month ago:
I can afford neither, but if I had to save up for one it would be the BYD.
American cars are just large, stupid and inefficient. Also the parts are very expensive here in New Zealand
