The world sadly needs some of the stuff only antisocial nutters can provide. If the said nutter’s gift to the world is good enough, the drama and discord that the nutter bequeaths will be forgotten and they will be given a free pass.

Hence the advice: never meet your heroes.

Think of all that money that they could have saved by even looking for those security issues once reported.

Fuck you Ubuntu people, typical crap corporate move. Is it even not opt-in?

Logseq to Obsidian.

Logseq’s markdown is weird and not standard. Everything is indented and in a list, even headings. I love me some open source, but this is a hard no.

Open your logseq files in a plain text editor and compare with the standard. I spend much of my time editing them back to Markdown.

Syncing logseq is easy on Syncthing. The only issue being that one has to watch out for conflicts by not editing one on one instance before the other sends it/it is received, but that’s a sync issue not Logseq.

Use rsync or rclone. rclone is less often used but multi-threaded so it will be faster.

It’s even easier if it’s closed source.

I’m not criticising you. I cannot validity criticise you, even if I was so inclined (I’m not), because I cannot proficiently grasp the subject matter. I would like to understand, NOT criticise. You’ve written an engaging piece which is opaque to me; apparently a contradiction. Hopefully I’ve rephrased that enough times to get across that no criticism is intended. 😁

I don’t know the product names. I don’t tend to be focused on product names because they come and go. Your first message didn’t help me.

Your last precis is just what I needed. Ideal. Thank-you. I now know what you’re trying to achieve.

Wasn’t being critical at all. Not expecting you to write for anyone.

I wondered what this actually provides. If you were explaining to someone with a good knowledge of the world, not grandma!!

Thanks fella. What do they actually do? Elevator pitch stylie!

Excuse the ignorance, what am I actually reading about here?

I read the first few paragraphs and an out of my league.

What are ‘we’ trying to achieve?

UniFi seem to have dabbled with 2.5 GBE briefly and then jumped to 10. I’m guessing that 10 will be the way to go.

You’re looking at cat 6A patch leads rather than 7. 7 requires different but RJ45 compatible connectors, I believe. Yes, I’m still trying to understand what the difference is.

I have a 2.5G router, the CG Max. A 1 G switch (waiting for a reasonably priced 10 G) and a 10 G WAP. It’s a bit of a mess!

Does one good to be challenged (at least) occasionally.

I learned something new.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the heads up… Really wasn’t expecting that.

Apologies to OP. I don’t know how to reference users: marauding_gibberish142@lemmybdzero

In terms of physical connections you’ve said that the card needs the x4. Not sure what there is to say further.

Can’t get a 30 cm ruler into a 15 cm pencil case.

Maybe I’ve totally misunderstood your post.

I don’t think you do.

A x1 will fit in a x4 but not the other way around.

I think you’re starting too big, to use your phrase.

Get used to the basics first: what’s different (to whatever you’re running now), what’s the same. They Linux distributions almost all have GUIs (KDE, GNOME are the main ones but there are many others).

Run a live USB version from a usb stick to get used to it until you have the confidence to install it on an old pc. Personally I do not recommend dual booting; data gets lost that way. Install it on an old pc and learn how to restore your backups to a Linux filesystem (not the fs of what you’re used to on Linux platform). I write that because you said that want to end up with a Linux server.

Choose one of the top few from distrowatch.com/

Your aim is to understand what’s going on under neither the GUI; how permissions work.

I started by installing a VoIP product into a VM on Windows 2000, but there are better ways now.

Good luck. You shouldn’t find it that difficult.

Finding out that it’s nowhere near as difficult as I supposed and is amazingly flexible. This is in 2004 when compiling drivers (kernel modules) for display and Wi-Fi was a normal thing for my laptop.

Sometimes: a laughing hyena.

If you don’t have tested backups, you don’t have a backup.

If you haven’t tested your backups, you ain’t got a backup.
