- Comment on Eve Online developers CCP are being sold off, according to reports 3 days ago:
My sort of turning point where I stopped playing was when they added the ability to pay IRL money or ISK for skill points.
It was a much more interested game to me when there was no way around the time investment of learning skills.
- Comment on Is there any softwares to download and sync with YouTube/PeerTube/Lbry? 4 days ago:
Pinchflat is what I use.
- Comment on ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP? 4 days ago:
You can either:
A) Use a different port, just set up the new service to run on a port that’s not used by the other service.
B) If it’s a TCP service use a reverse proxy and a subdomain.
- Comment on PSA: filebrowser is no longer being actively developed 5 days ago:
It’s just YAML, if you do
FILEBROWSER_CONFIG:“/config/config.yaml”instead it might work with quotes. - Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top? 6 days ago:
It’s interesting because you’re not the first person to complain about getting ISOs in Proxmox, but on my instance if I click on my local storage it has an upload ISO button, and a download ISO from URL button right there, so it’s really simple.
- Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top? 6 days ago:
Is it all automated with versioning intervals and stuff? Or is restic required as a third party step and maintaining a duplicate of data on the server for it to grab?
Overall it sounds like a decent VM manager but is meant for enterprise stuff where they’ll be building their own backup systems.
- Comment on The "standard" car charger is usually overkill—but your electrician might not know that [32:26] 6 days ago:
How would it increase chances of burning the house down? Outlets are rated for a specific current draw and will have a matching breaker on the circuit, if your outlets are worn out or the breaker or wire is not matched correctly that’s not the fault of the charger.
- Comment on Google’s Advanced Protection Arrives on Android: Should You Use It? 6 days ago:
If you uninstalled the app or disabled it, then it can’t run in the background.
- Comment on Firefox is dead to me – and I'm not the only one who is fed up 1 week ago:
I’ve been using Zen which is nice and has some stuff removed that we don’t want.
But it’ll only be around as long as Firefox is around.
- Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top? 1 week ago:
That’s what proxmox has too, but snapshots aren’t backups and aren’t being sent to a remote backup server… You’re also not supposed to keep snapshots around for very long, whereas I have backups going back several months.
Or are you sending snapshots to a remote server? I think ZFS can do that, so maybe that’s an option I can look at.
- Comment on The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible 1 week ago:
That’s also how you know it’s a cheap chinese phone lol, because all the high end flagships don’t have headphone jacks (other than Sony I suppose).
- Comment on Fresh Proxmox install w/ full disk encryption—so install Debian first, then Proxmox on top? 1 week ago:
This looks interesting, how do you handle automated backups of all the VMs/Containers? Their docs kind of seem to say “stop everything and figure it out”, but with Proxmox I’m used to it handling everything automatically to my PBS server every night.
- Comment on xAI Data Center Emits Plumes of Pollution, New Video Shows 1 week ago:
That’s what I’m wondering as well, how do we differentiate cooling towers and the heat from those vs actual exhaust emissions…
- Comment on Docker is not available in RHEL10 1 week ago:
It’s definitely not an easy migration in my experience, because they run rootless and they cannot auto-start without making a system service for every stack, there is a lot that needs to change in a compose stack, especially with file permissions for shared mounts.
- Comment on Drivebender replacement 1 week ago:
Doesn’t windows have storage spaces or something like that? I’m not familiar with windows for any kind of server stuff but I remember reading some things.
- Comment on Drivebender replacement 1 week ago:
It’s a drive pooling application for windows, lets you merge multiple drives into a single mount.
- Comment on slrpnk.net is back 1 week ago:
They had a hardware issue, I believe with the firewall on the rack setup it sounded like?
- Comment on How to move OwnCloud data? 1 week ago:
It’s just a folder of stuff, so copy it to the new location you’re going to use on your fresh instance (which would be where your bind mount is in your docker-compose project). Then once up and running you’ll need to run the command to manually scan existing files.
- Comment on Smartphones are Designed to Fail Us (and We Have to Change That) 1 week ago:
There are tons of rugged smartphones out there, also some brands that focus on easy to repair phones.
The fact that they’re not well known kind of shows that the majority of the market doesn’t really care about those things.
- Comment on The Outer Worlds 2 Can't Be Anti-Capitalist When It's Charging Us $80 To Play It 1 week ago:
That’s sort of how it works though isn’t it? If games at $80 are too much then less people will buy, profits will drop and publishers will either lower prices, or vanish and get replaced by ones that lower prices.
- Comment on The Arc Browser Is Dead 1 week ago:
This was the browser that required an account to even start using, it was just ridiculous.
- Comment on The Arc Browser Is Dead 1 week ago:
Number of external connections means little without context of the content and what they are for.
- Comment on Bambu Lab’s Controversial ‘Authorization Control’ Hits Budget 3D Printers 2 weeks ago:
Yeah it’d just be nice if they weren’t trying so hard to emulate paper printer companies haha
- Comment on Bambu Lab’s Controversial ‘Authorization Control’ Hits Budget 3D Printers 2 weeks ago:
I’m happy I built a Voron Trident a few years ago instead of going for the Bambu Lab printer. It’s more work of course, but I also know what parts are in it and how to fix it or upgrade it.
- Comment on What load balancers can do HA (preferably open source, web gui) 2 weeks ago:
Opnsense kinda has a webUI for HAProxy, but it’s also not very good.
I recommend learning the config files, since HAProxy is probably the best option for a HA load balancer.
- Comment on Bambu Lab’s Controversial ‘Authorization Control’ Hits Budget 3D Printers 2 weeks ago:
I remember people warning this would happen years ago on various online threads, and getting ridiculed for it.
- Comment on I got a free HP DL380 G5, so I blogged about it ! 2 weeks ago:
Yes some, but the power consumption is extremely high. A cheap $40 PC with an i5-6500 CPU would out perform it at about 1/10th the power draw.
- Comment on Slrpnk instance is down till mid July; they might relaunch their server on piefed. 2 weeks ago:
Probably quite expensive, and when doing something as a hobby it’s often hard to get the funds.
- Comment on Is there any good decentralized cloud storage for personal backups as a self-hoster? 2 weeks ago:
when selfhosters can just help each other storing parts of others backup.
That’s essentially what Storj, Sia, etc… are for, they’re decentralized storage systems where users can contribute storage to the network which automatically distributes data over all the ‘hosters’.
- Comment on True Wireless Power is FINALLY here (building a TRULY wire-free desk setup) 2 weeks ago:
The power draw will go up when a device is drawing power from it, but there will be base/idle draw of course as well.
