You're correct, imma let voice-to-text take the blame there.

If you are trying to access several different services through the internet to your home network, you are better off setting up a home VPN than trying to manage multiple public facing services. The more you publish directly to the public, the more difficult it is to keep up with everything; It is likely needlessly expanding your threat exposure. Plus you never know when a new exploit gets published against any of the services you have available.

Sounds legit to me. Padman could be seen as a separate Unix system or the programs to live in, and therefore would have its own set of user and group IDs. As long as the created files have permissions that are different from The host permissions and they will still be inaccessible without some permission manipulation.

Feel like this is one of those weird generational things, but isn't happy hotel TV just regular cable TV?

Should have at least said yes under the condition of it being after the Jan 6th plaque getting hung up.

This is not the simplest answer at all but FYI you can also self host gitlab

Oh hell yeah. They won't release Black & White again so we'll just make our own!

TBH I will probably wind up getting it only because it has headphone and SD card slot. Hopefully it is rootable too though they have been weeding that out on some models as well.

 

I have successfully passed through a GPU to a full VM for gaming, but since reverted that to a standalone installation. So I know passthrough is possible/I'm capable of implementing it.

That said, I'm trying to plan out some clustering across at least three machines, two with GPUs and only one of those has any real heft. My understanding is that, with most/normal consumer hardware, there is not an option to split GPU load across multiple containers or VMs; once passthrough is set up, it is dedicated to that instance.

I am wondering, is this true even if I orchestrated spin up/down of the instance? For instance, can LXC1 have the GPU until I shut it down, then spin up LXC2 or VM3 to take over that same GPU without reconfiguring and restarting the host? IIRC configuring the passthrough suggested this wasn't possible but I'll have to experiment to be sure, or rely on Lemmy's expert opinion (-:

My assumption for now is that I just need to have a single guest per GPU (or buy a much more expensive card).

 

I don't actually care, but odd that every installation does this.

 

Just heard about this on a podcast, and I've often looked for ways to put my skills to use on a volunteer basis. This would probably also be an excellent resume builder for students / aspiring cybersecurity professionals.

 

I got a stack of PCS that are very similar if not identical. Third gen i7, 8 gigs of ram, one terabyte hdd, all but one are the same HP model with the same motherboard, etc too. I upgraded the RAM in a few of them, and I have enough spare TB hard drives to put an extra in each. Two have Nvidia GeForce 210 gpus, and the unique one out of the bunch I'll probably throw in a spare RX 570 I have.

But, what to do with them? Easiest answer is probably sell them all for $75 each but that's not what we do here, right? Right now I'm assuming they all support w o l and I can easily set up ansible/awx for orchestration. I'm just looking for some fun experiments, projects, or actual uses for this Tower of PC towers

 

To begin I'll say this is something I've noticed with Firefox, but because it's Snap-centered I think this is the place to post. I have two primary machines which recently had Firefox "wiped clean" like they were brand new installs. They also had notifications suggesting the version of Firefox was not the official way to use FF in the given operating system (Kubuntu 24.04 on both machines). It suggested using the official Debian repo instead, which I figured why not and re-installed from there (after uninstalling the Snap first).

I guess I'm asking if anyone else is experiencing this? Am I right in pointing blame at Snap or is this possibly an elsewhere issue?
