When you make a potentially system breaking change and forgot to make a snapshot of the VM beforehand…

Truly the horseshoe crab of websites. Why change when you’re already perfect?

Just run Pi-Hole in a Docker container on your machine. Point your nameserver to localhost and reap the benefits.

In Proxmox they have VirGL-GPU and Virtio-GPU. They allow VMs to pass work to the GPU without being dedicated to one VM. I don’t think gaming was the intended use case and don’t know what kind of performance you would get. My uninformed guess is that it would not be great.

I’ve been a chaotic neutral more times than I would like to admit.

Build something that you want. Find that niche that isn’t well served by existing projects and fill the void. Either by making something entirely new or adding a feature to something already out there.

Thanks for the insight. I think I understand what he is trying to do but is a little too low-level for me to really grasp the technicalities.

Is there something wrong with doas? I thought doas was smaller with less of an attack surface.

They have a pretty good catalog of pre-built Docker containers. You don’t have to use their version of things but there is a lot of software that I was previously unaware of that I learned of through them.

For some reason my DNS tends to break the most. I have to reinstall my Pi-hole semi-regularly.

NixOS plus Docker is my preferred setup for hosting applications. Sometime it is a pain to get running but once it does it tends to run. If a container doesn’t work, restart it. If the OS doesn’t work, roll it back.

Does it increase your attack surface? Yes. With proper precautions is this level of risk negligible? Also yes.

You will be opening a port to the outside world. Anyone can try to use it. But if you are using key authentication it will be fine.

I’ve been an actual janitor and a sysadmin… they’re not dissimilar. You clean up other people’s shit for a living.

Those aren’t real classified documents. They aren’t marked correctly.

That’s good to know. Thanks!

His example doesn’t seem to perform any comparisons to determine what to name the file. If the text file is just a list then something like this could work:

$file = Get-Content -Path .\individuals2.txt

foreach ($line in $file) { Copy-Item -Path .\template.docx -Destination “.$(2 + $line + ‘.docs’)” }

Edit: Wow, Lemmy destroys formatting.

I’ve been with Porkbun for over a year now. No complaints.

My GPU is quite literally 15 or 16 years old (I pulled it out of an old server that was being trashed). If you aren’t going to do heavy graphical work and just want to spruce up your desktop performance then really anything is probably fine.

I think both these options require downloading additional libraries on your Proxmox host to work.

Cat tax paid.

Under hardware > display there is an option for VirtiO-GPU and VirGL-GPU. I’m not super knowledgeable but I think these options allows VMs to make system calls to the GPU. I put an ancient Quadro in my server and my RDP sessions were noticeably better.

Setup a virtual desktop on your server and RDP into it to access the web interface. Here is me doing that using my cat as a stand lol.
