ArchiveBox is great.
I’m big into retro computing and general old electronics shit, and I archive everything I come across that’s useful.
I just assume anything and everything on some old dude’s blog about a 30 year old whatever is subject to vanishing at any moment, and if it was useful once, it’ll be useful again later probably so fuck it, make a copy of everything.
Not like storage is expensive, anyway.
Honestly, I think we’re 3 years out from Windows being replacable for a gaming platform.
Anti-cheat is a big one (sure, there’s “support”, but if none of the games people play are supported, is that support?), but VRR and HDR are also huge.
That trifecta is the only reason I’m still sitting in Windows, and I find myself hopeful we land there sooner rather than later so I can dump Windows and never have to think about whatever dumb crap Microsoft is going to do next.
It is mostly professional/office use where this make sense. I’ve implemented this (well, a similar thing that does the same thing) for clients that want versioning and compliance.
I’ve worked with/for a lot of places that keep everything because disks are cheap enough that they’ve decided it’s better to have a copy of every git version than not have one and need it some day.
Or places that have compliance reasons to have to keep copies of every email, document, spreadsheet, picture and so on. You’ll almost never touch “old” data, but you have to hold on to it for a decade somewhere.
It’s basically cold storage that can immediately pull the data into a fast cache if/when someone needs the older data, but otherwise it just sits there forever on a slow drive.
nVidia released drivers that aren’t a complete tire fire under Wayland.
(It’s more of a regular pile of discarded tires now, but it’s still dramatically better.)
…depends what your use pattern is, but I doubt you’d enjoy it.
The problem is the cached data will be fast, but the uncached will, well, be on a hard drive.
If you have enough cached space to keep your OS and your used data on it, it’s great, but if you have enough disk space to keep your OS and used data on it, why are you doing this in the first place?
If you don’t have enough cache drive to keep your commonly used data on it, then it’s going to absolutely perform worse than just buying another SSD.
So I guess if this is ‘I keep my whole steam library installed, but only play 3 games at a time’ kinda usecase, it’ll probably work fine.
For everything else, eh, I probably wouldn’t.
Edit: a good usecase for this is more the ‘I have 800TB of data, but 99% of it is historical and the daily working set of it is just a couple hundred gigs’ on a NAS type thing.
I’ll admit to having no opinion on windowing systems.
If the distro ships with X, I use X, and if it ships with Wayland, I use Wayland.
I’d honestly probably not be able tell you which systems I’ve been using use one or the other, and that’s a good thing: if you can’t tell, then it probably doesn’t matter anymore.
Oh, that makes sense. I was trying to mentally imagine what kind of FDM printer could possibly need that much power and was very much coming up with a blank, lol.
So uh, if I can ask, why?
Like what are you doing that needs this kind of uh, upgrade?
One thing you probably need to figure out first: how are the dgpu and igpu connected to each other, and then which ports are connected to which gpu.
Everyone does funky shit with this, and you’ll sometimes have dgpus that require the igpu to do anything, or cases where the internal panel is only hooked up to the igpu (or only the dgpu), and the hdmi and display port and so on can be any damn thing.
So uh, before you get too deep in planning what gets which gpu, you probably need to see if the outputs you need support what you want to do.
Shit, we didn’t even need an argument to stab each other.
I’ve still got bits of pencil broken off in my limbs from school.
It’s viable, but when you’re buying a DAS for the drives, figure out what the USB chipset is and make sure it’s not a flaky piece of crap.
Things have gotten better, but some random manufacturers are still using trash bridge chips and you’ll be in for a bad time. (By which I mean your drives will vanish in the middle of a write, and corrupt themselves.)
Am I missing something, or is this just the argo tunnel thing Cloudflare has offered for quite a while?
10000% this.
Tell me what it does, and SHOW me what it does.
Because guessing what the hell your thing looks like and behaves like is going to get me to bounce pretty much immediately because you’ve now made it where I have to figure out how to deploy your shit if I want to know. And, uh, generally, if you have no screenshots, you have no good documentation and thus it’s going to suuuuck.
It’s because of updates and who owns the support.
The postgres project makes the postgres container, the pict-rs project makes the pict-rs container, and so on.
When you make a monolithic container you’re now responsible for keeping your shit and everyone else’s updated, patched, and secured.
I don’t blame any dev for not wanting to own all that mess, and thus, you end up with seperate containers for each service.
The best way I’ve heard that described is that for the Bambu stuff, you spend your time fiddling with the thing you want to print, not your printer.
I love my p1p (and it’s several thousand hours and 100kg of filament into ownership and all I’ve had to do is clean the bedplate and replace a nozzle), and really wish there was anyone who was making an open-source printer that’s as reliable and fiddle-free as this thing has been.
I’d probably go with getting the ISP equipment into the dumbest mode possible, and putting your own router in it’s place, so option #2?
I know nothing about eero stuff, but can you maybe also put it into a mode that has it doing wifi-only, and no routing/bridging/whatever?
Then you can just leave the ISP router in place, and just use them for wifi (and probably turn off the wifi on the ISP router, while you’re in there).
Then the correct answer is ‘the one you won’t screw up’, honestly.
I’m a KISS proponent with security for most things, and uh, the more complicated it gets the more likely you are to either screw up unintentionally, or get annoyed at it, and do something dumb on purpose, even though you totally were going to fix it later.
Pick the one that makes sense, is easy for you to deploy and maintain, and won’t end up being so much of a hinderance you start making edge-case exceptions because those are the things that will 100% bite you in the ass later.
Seen so many people turn off a firewall or enable port forwarding or set a weak password or change permissions to something too permissive and just end up getting owned that have otherwise sane, if maybe over-complicated, security designs and do actually know what they’re doing, but just getting burned by wandering off from standards because what they implemented originally ends up being a pain to deal with in day-to-day use.
So yeah, figure out your concerns, figure out what you’re willing to tolerate in terms of inconvenience and maintenance, and then make sure you don’t ever deviate from there without stopping and taking a good look at what you’re doing, what could happen if you do it, and coming up with a worst-case scenario first.
What’s your concern here?
Like who are you envisioning trying to hack you, and why?
Because frankly, properly configured and permissioned (that is, stop using root for everything you run) container isolation is probably good enough for anything that’s not a nation state (barring some sort of issue with your container platform and it having an escape), and if it is a nation state you’re fucked anyways.
But more to your direct question: I actually use dns scopes and nginx acls to seperate public from private. I have a *.public and a *.private cname which points to either my external or internal IP, and ACLs in the nginx site configuration to scope where access is allowed.
You can’t access a *.private host outside the network, but can access either from inside it, and so (again, barring nginx having an oopsie somewhere) it’s reasonably secure and not accessible, and leaves a very clear set of logs (and I’m pulling those logs in and parsing them for anything suspicious and doing automated alerting if I find anything I would not otherwise expect) so I’m happy enough with the level of security that this is, when paired with the services built-in authentication options.
Uhm, you can buy dildos at Walmart?
Why has nobody told me before now?
You can share your wisdom and be of great value to the public without being in public office.
At some point, though, you’ve gone from useful adult into honored elder, and while I’m not suggesting we put them all on ice floes, they shouldn’t be running the country, especially since more than a few of them clearly don’t even know which country they’re in, let alone how to run it.
If you can’t walk, are having strokes, have developed dementia, and generally just sit around staring at the wall like my cat, perhaps it’s time to gracefully retire and go spend the rest of your life doing conferences and speaking engagements and whatever the hell else you want, not trying to legislate.
