In my experience, people want “it will work.” They will not accept “it could work” at all.
“It should work” is the perfect amount of hedge, even when you know “it will work,” because all of us have been burned by simple assumptions that were right 1000 times before and were somehow wrong this time.
This is why “sure” or “yes” are not part of my IT vocabulary. “Should” is king. “We should be be able to do” or “that should work.”
In the idiocy of stakeholders that want IT to be a magic wand to fix their ineptitude instead of a helpful contributor to their well thought out process, you have to coach everything in the polite “no” that is “maybe” or “should.”
I had the hardest time with this. What I ended up doing instead was provisioning a dedicated vm to run as a tailscale subnet router, then just advertise my gateway and the applicable container IPs via /32 CIDRs. Tailscale will let you do multiple comma separated IPs when advertising routes, so it’s easy to append a new service via IP.
If youre using podman quadlets, this config in the systemd service file does the same:
[Service]
Restart=always
Just POSIX and no other compatibility? Pretty niche, man.
A lack of niche OS compatibility isn’t much of a downside. Working on 99.9% of all active OS’s is excellent coverage for a skftware suite.
Besides, freebsd has podman support, which is something like 95% cross compatible with docker. You basically do have docker support on freebsd, just harder.
Id be pretty wary of using any system that “cooked” an nvme. That not the sign of an actual healthy system.
Was the failure just heat damage?
They sent out a lot of review samples to different serious tech youtubers like wendal at level1 and jeff geerling. They were all big fans.
Look for the “vanilla expanded” mods.
It is a dedicated and organized team of modders that has output a stunning amount of content, all of it cohesive, and what many would consider required “base game” content.
They have literally put out dozens of mods that could be standalone DLC, all for free.
The talos principle 1 & 2. Playing through 1 now, and it’s excellent. Some of the puzzles are complex, but most can be solved in 5-10 minutes and give a nice “ah-ha!” moment. It reminds me of portal 2, but with a heavier and more ambiguous story about the nature of life and consciousness. Highly recommended.
Also been playing some Dome keeper and Peglin. Both also excellent in their own ways.
2d isometric vs 3d first person. One format clearly lets stories breathe better, but that doesn’t mean half life isn’t story driven.
Rogue tower is another great game with rogue in its name.
Fantastic tower defense.
Not just per core, but with a core minimum. We had some edge servers that are low power hosts that we now pay 5x on because of the core minimum.
Our main vmware license is still under the old pricing due to lock in, but that expires in a few years. We will be moving off vmwaew, and by then hopefully improvements like this bring proxmox into the competition.
Good to see proxmox adding a vsphere style interface. It should help adoption in the enterprise, especially as broadcom continues to turbo fuck vmware.
Tailscale is an excellent answer here. They use wireguard as the vpn protocol, but add layers of extra control.
You can use it in sidecar config for each container, or setup a subnet router, which lets you route any IP over the VPN. Just target that IP with a /32 cidr, i.e tailscale up --advertise-routes:192.168.1.100/32.
I’m here for it. The 8 disc server is normally a great form factor for size, data density and redundancy with raid6/raidz2.
This would net around 180TB in that form factor. Thats would go a long way for a long while.
Not sure what you’re going on about here. Even these discs have plenty of performance for read/wrote ops for rarely written data like media. They have the same ability to be used by error checking filesystems like zfs or btrfs, and can be used in raid arrays, which add redundancy for disc failure.
The only negatives of large drives in home media arrays is the cost, slightly higher idle power usage, and the resilvering time on replacing a bad disc in an array.
Your 8-12TB recommendation already has most of these negatives. Adding more space per disc is just scaling them linearly.
I wouldn’t believe the cops without some evidence either way.
Their hacking teams will still be connected.
Its been what, 8 years since the original switch was released?
They had plenty of time to decide on a better name.
