My best guess is there’s a permissions issue with whatever you have the ISO stored on. Try copying the iso to somewhere in your home folder.

Debian because it just works. I am interested in trying NixOS though.

Sometimes (not in this instance) the error message is completely worthless. I remember one time trying to configure automatic backups in Cloud Native Postgres and it just wasn’t working, the errors were opaque. So I asked on the project’s github what the problem was and the devs were quite unhelpful. Some random user came along and said “Oh you need to set the S3 region like this…” and backups started working.

For starting out I would suggest Longhorn, I’ve had several issues with it but maybe they’ve been fixed. I also used Rook Ceph which is overkill but neat to play with. Techno Tim has several videos on Kubernetes including setting up a cluster (he has an ansible playbook for it) as well as how to set up Longhorn.

Cryptid. I’ve tried Bunco but found it pretty buggy. There’s also UnStable

Modded Balatro

Does Pihole still not support VLANs or DHCP options?

Yeah the Canadian dollar isn’t great.

I made my own solution since I wasn’t impressed by projects I had found. There’s two parts, the backup image and the restore image.

I use it like so:

services:
  restore_sabnzbd:
    image: untouchedwagons/simple-restore:1.0.5
    container_name: restore_sabnzbd
    restart: no
    environment:
      - BACKUP_APPEND_DIRECTORY=/docker/production/sabnzbd
      - BACKUP_BASE_NAME=sabnzbd
      - FORCE_OWNERSHIP=1000:1000
    volumes:
      - sabnzbd:/data
      - /mnt/tank/Media/Backups:/backups

  sabnzbd:
    image: ghcr.io/onedr0p/sabnzbd:4
    container_name: sabnzbd
    restart: unless-stopped
    user: 1000:1000
    volumes:
      - sabnzbd:/config
      - /mnt/tank/Media/Usenet:/mnt/data/Usenet
    depends_on:
      restore_sabnzbd:
        condition: service_completed_successfully
    networks:
      - traefik_default

  backup_sabnzbd:
    image: untouchedwagons/simple-backup:1.1.0
    container_name: backup_sabnzbd
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      TZ: "America/Toronto"
      BACKUP_APPEND_DIRECTORY: "/docker/production/sabnzbd"
      BACKUP_BASE_NAME: "sabnzbd"
      BACKUP_RETENTION: "24"
      BACKUP_FREQUENCY: "0 0 * * *"
    volumes:
      - sabnzbd:/data:ro
      - /mnt/tank/Media/Backups:/backups
      
networks:
  traefik_default:
    external: true

volumes:
  sabnzbd:

The restore container looks for a file called RESTORED in /data and if one isn’t found it’ll try to restore the latest backup (if available) and then create a RESTORED file. The backup container ignores this file during backup.

JDownloader 2 has never let me down.

I think it started with Linus and Luke of Linus Tech Tips doing a 30 day linux challenge to see what it’s like daily driving linix. Jeff of Craft Computing did one recently as well.

Zsh + oh-my-zsh

I’ve got a t14 and it works perfectly under fedora 40. My only complaint is that the Left Ctrl key isn’t in the corner.

I remember watching a youtube video about UI design on computers and the lady narrator said that the corners of the screen have effectively infinite size. I don’t remember anything else but that line stood out.

Oh cool I’ve been looking for something like mobaxterm but for Linux. I’ll definitely check this out.

Everything went smooth for me though my install is fairly pedestrian.

Where are you expecting to see the host in windows? In the Network window? If so you’ll want to install, enable and run wsdd2

My internet is 500/500.

I’ll vouch for airvpn. I’ve been using it for probably six years now with no issues. When using wireguard I can download Linux isos at 500mbps.
