Stopping charge at 80% (and still going down near 0%) should give you roughly 4x the cycle life. So in theory doing that it would take about 8 years to hit the same 85% usable level.

85% left after 2.5 years is a high rate of wear, due to phones really pushing as much as they can into the battery to have longer run times.

Yes but Proxmox doesn’t manage docker, OP wants a webUI to see all their docker containers.

I agree running Proxmox as a base OS is the way to go, but you’ll still need Dockge, Portainer, etc to have a webUI for docker stuff.

Proxmox doesn’t manage docker, it wouldn’t do anything for OP.

Now it’s all gone x86 and Proxmox with everyone shitting on Arm. What happened? What gives?

It’s because the price point is really high now. There’s nothing wrong with the hardware you have.

I think most of the basic Logitech webcams should just work without any other software.

Not surprised about Razer, their stuff is awful.

Did you change the mysql container database name, username and password to something other than the default linguacafe ?

That would break it, as it’s using those specific credentials to login to the database. Which would cause Access denied for user ‘linguacafe’@‘ip adress censored’ (using password: YES) (SQL: select count(*) as aggregate from users)

Try with the default, you’ll need to wipe the mysql data under /home/user/Documents/Docker/LinguaCafe/database/ after stopping the container first.

That sounds normal, server linux has no GUI/Desktop, only a console.

To get a full CLI that you can select/copy/paste in you just need to SSH in, instead of using the Proxmox console.

The proxmox console is meant for rare usage like installing the OS and recovering from failures, it’s not meant to be used as a daily way to interact with the VMs.

It also sends your IMAP credentials to their servers and receives the mail there, it’s not done locally like the older versions.

Just to do it, IMAP already covers using multiple devices on an email account.

Basically, Unifi needs to know where the unifi server is, but it’s assigning the IP address to it.

Set a static IP on the Unifi server.

Linux requires putting in some work to get everything working, just how it is right now.

Pick a distro you like, and stick with solving the issues!

How well does it handle backups, and are they deduplicated incremental ones like proxmox backup server makes?

MangoPenguin, 1 year ago

So … conclussion ???

Have backups.

Only 2 copies of your data stored in the same place isn’t enough, you want 3 at minimum and at least 1 should be somewhere else.

MangoPenguin, 1 year ago

Agreed, it’s not user friendly at all.

Nextcloud for me too, would break because of updates requiring manual DB updates sometimes, apps would randomly stop working after updating too, or the 2 times it caused total data loss on all my synced devices and the server itself which required a full restore from backups.

After getting rid of it and switching to Syncthing + Filebrowser + SFTPGo for WebDAV I haven’t really had anything break since then (about a year now). Stuff also runs much faster, NC was extremely slow even on good hardware with all their recommended settings for performance.

I really like Sourcetree, been using that for a long time.

Wait, isn’t a lower frame time better? Why does their screenshot show windows having the lowest and say that it scored last?

Looking at the source article, windows did have generally better 1% lows except for Starfield, so I think this article has it backwards. They also cherry picked 2 results where windows was worse lol.

I’m all for pro-linux stuff but articles like this just reek of making shit up so it looks better.

I gave it a try, but what turns me off is the weird decentralization that’s sort of black box? Like I have a recovery phrase which I associate with blockchain stuff, and there’s a vague button that says “offload data to our backup node”. And then I seem to have an account with them? The settings mentions deleting an account which is weird, because I thought it was local/lan sync only.

Their website says “No server”, but in the settings on the app it says I’ve used xxMB out of 1GB of remote storage, where/what is that if there’s no server involved? Where is my data being uploaded to?

I can’t seem to find where it stores data in a standard format on my local filesystem, so if anytype shuts down how do I migrate? It looks like my local data is even encrypted for some reason??

Basically both on their website and in the app it feels like the concept is all over the place, it can’t decide if it’s local where you own your data, stored on a server somewhere, or some sort of weird blockchain decentralized thing where your data just might vanish one day.

For the app itself I can’t figure out how to get an editing/format tool bar like I have in onenote, to change font, size, headings, insert tables, and that sort of thing.

Navigation is also confusing, I created a new note (page?) and now I can only find it in “All Objects” which is just a giant mess of stuff, whereas I’m looking for something like a tab bar with my sections and pages organized in a tree or something like onenote does it.

Overall my impression is it’s very confusing to use and understand, with a lot going on in the UI but still missing basic editing tools and organization.

For some reason devs can’t wrap their head around cache being temporary.

Looks like they offer lifetime plans, I definitely associate those with services that aren’t well made and don’t stick around long, since lifetime storage plans aren’t really sustainable.

df shows mounted filesystems, do you see it with lsblk?

It only defeats 2FA from a standpoint of someone gaining access your PW manager. But for everything else like a service getting hacked and leaking your passwords for it, the 2FA will still do its job fine.

Looks like it’s already flipped to true in Librewolf, glad they seem to have some common sense compared to mozilla.

Is there any good reason for a browser to mask the real URLs like that? There seems to be a trend of hiding parts of the URL people see lately.

MangoPenguin, 1 year ago

How are both Firefox and Chrome “High” for spying, when Firefox basically only sends diagnostic telemetry by default.

Half of this site is bitching about browsers checking for updates to the browser, addons, and block lists. How is it supposed to function if it doesn’t do that?

First, we have it connecting to Mozilla’s location services, who then obviously learn your location.

Why ‘obviously’? How is connecting to that URL any different from another URL? A webserver gets your IP and rough location either way.
