You could just swap the two disks and see if it follows the drive or the link.

If the drive, rma it. I don’t put a lot of faith in smart data.



Rotate your phone 90 degrees clockwise. Problem solved.


Ntfs isn’t going to care or even be aware of the hypervisor FS, zfs or btrfs would both work fine.

Making sure you don’t have misaligned sectors, is pretty much the only major pitfall. Make sure you use paravirt storage and network drivers.

Edit: I just realized you’re asking for the opposite direction, but ultimately the same guidelines apply. It doesn’t matter what filesystems are on what, with the above caveats.


Someone hasn’t learned to block themselves out a lunch hour.


Yes. I’ve always splurged on nice cards for my personal stuff. I think it’s more about the write behavior of Linux than anything else, since I’ve never had a card die in my camera.

I refuse to use a pi with SD at this point. Saving $50 isn’t worth my time to reinstall things.


I couldn’t count the number of failed sd cards I’ve seen across all my fingers and toes.

I’ve seen like 4 ssds in my entire life fail. Plus you could just do mdraid 1 / btrfs across 2 of them if you want


Why not just connect an ssd via USB and save yourself the hassle and torment?


My understanding is the media and projectors are heavily tied together with strict DRM. This is why you see cams with direct audio hookups, but not direct video rips


Oh look, it’s another old white guy trying to solve a problem he’s not affected by and probably hasn’t personally experienced.

Edit: Sorry that was so negative, but these are all pretty basic things you’re stating. Anyone likely to read this list and action items like this, is likely already staunchly pro black.

Would be good to see some more items that would make people do a double take and say “oh, I do that, I didn’t realize that could be construed as anti black”. Use your experience as a non black person to try and identify ways that a white person might be impacting black people unintentionally.


I don’t think there is anything else free. Best you can do is host with someone like ovh that has enough resources to provide basic protection.




The internet was designed to route around failure. Taking down an isp upstream wouldn’t generally impact internal routing, or routing between them if they’re peering.


Uh, CBSA can’t refuse you if you’re a Canadian citizen for an American DUI. She definitely wasn’t a full Canadian if she had to do anything.

It’s in our charter of Rights.

I’d recommend avoiding spinning disks and going all ssd if possible.

You can get 12v in atx power supplies.

You may want to consider something like a Lenovo tiny with a few large ssds.


I spent a year tracking down random afci circuit breaker trips, until I realized it was my powerline Ethernet. Never again.


Lspci doesn’t care about drivers. What’s lshw say?

Sounds like maybe a fake card or something. Do you also have a 3060 in there?


If you need support outside of business hours, you’re fucked.

Friend had a network misconfig on their side take his server out on Friday night and they didn’t fix it until Monday.


SMB.

The windows nfs implementation sucks, but everything talks SMB.




A lot of reasonably competent geeks just never get deep into networking, and VPNs can be overwhelming. It doesn’t really help that for a long time it was all IPSec which basically you need to learn voodoo to manage. Thankfully we have much better tools now, but it’s still just a tech layer that many people don’t touch frequently.


The tailscale client should have created an interface, but I’ve never used it on a box also running wg. You don’t have a tailscale specific interface in ip addr show at all? That’s… odd.

Do you have a device at /dev/net/tun?


How do I do this?

Run ip route show table all

I would expect to see a line like:

192.168.178.0/24 dev tailscale0 table 52

Out of curiosity on a remote node do tcpdump -i tailscale0 -n icmp and then do a ping from the other side, does tcpdump see the icmp packets come in?


Relay “ams” means you’re using tailscales DERP node in amsterdam, this is expected if you don’t have direct connectivity through your firewall. Since you opened the ports that’s unusual and worth looking into, but I’d worry about that after you get basic connectivity.

So to confirm your behavior, you can tailscale ping each other fine and tailscale ping to the internal network. You cannot however ping from the OS to the remote internal network?

Have you checked your routing tables to make sure the tailscale client added the route properly?

Also have you checked your firewall rules? If you’re using ipfw or something, try just turning off iptables briefly and see if that lets you ping through.


Can your nodes ping each other on the tailscale ips? Check tailscale status and make sure the nodes see each other listed there.

Try tailscale ping 1.2.3.4 with the internal IP addresses and see what message it gives you.

tailscale debug netmap is useful to make sure your clients are seeing the routes that headscale pushes.


That should be all that’s required. Are you using ACLs? If so you need to provide access to the subnet router as well as a rule to the IP behind it


Did you enable the route in the admin web ui?



More aimed towards network operators than self hosters, but https://ring.nlnog.net/

Still definitely works like that. It’s a massive security issue.



Can just point it to /dev/shm as a transcoding folder, for a quick and dirty way.

Otherwise you’d mount a tmpfs disk.



Yeah but then you have a customer calling and screaming at you “We just launched our big sale of the year and our site has been down for an hour!!!”.

If you let them burst and bill them, you end up with angry clients. If you don’t, you end up with angry clients. Letting them burst and being forgiving with the bill is the better approach IMHO.
