Headscale is not essential. Of course in this context the "self-hosted service" would be the Tailscale client...

As long as your kids currend and future friends will be on Windows there will be potential issues. There's also the matter of familiarizing yourself with an environment that monopolyze the professional environment...

It says they do but they kinda mostly don't. I'm playing from linux on my old steam windows folder on a very much NTFS drive and I never had an issue.

Dual boot 100% no doubts. Don't unilaterally impose Linux on your Son, he will likely be cut off from many socialization on current and future popular multiplayer games that may or may not run smoothly on Linux.

The Talos Principle 2. Other than magnifying the dread of the elections, I expected more considering the first one is my favorite game ever.

It's good but it's not as perfect as the first one. Too "grounded".

How does steam deals with installing on a different HD than system's one? That's the only issue I have had with WINE and I had to unpack in Windows.

I'm pretty sure you can define the filter by bitrate as in dimension/minute of the file, this allow for a filter that's unrelated to the filename.

Of course if you are into stuff like HDR type you can't reasonably expect it to be tied to a webrip or anything below Blueray.

You can also do a manual search from within radarr and look at the files yourself.

Mostly because of the dress.

Don’t other people’s banks have web portals?

Sadly, some finance services are app only, app-that-don't-run-without-Play-Store only.

It souds like this is literally your first step outside of windows.

Don't listen to any of these people, stick to dual boot, especially if your quality of life (I mean your hobbies) are tied to mastery of a known ecosystem of specific softwares.

Linux can work but you will need to compromise, and you will royally fuck up and unless you are embracing troubleshooting as an hobby you won't like it.

Dual booting allows you to have a safe harbor for when things go south.

I've had a dual boot for around 6 years and only this year I have, not deleted windows but set up my boot to default to linux (it used to be last OS booted).

I had to give up the quality of some audio filters for streaming, I coud not for the life of me figure out how to run a couple of specific games, I'm unable to uncompress big .exe archives (yarrr) in certain specific disks and after a year of smooth daily sailing I had my drivers go nuts and had to dive in and fix it, doing research on old shitty reliable windows.

 

I have a proxmox+Debian+docker server and I'm looking to setup my backups so that they get backed up (DUH) on my Linux PC whenever it comes online on the local network.

I'm not sure if what's best is backing up locally and having something else handling the copying, how to have those backup run only if they haven't run in a while regardless of the availability of the PC, if it's best to have the PC run the logic or to keep the control over it on the server.

Mostly I don't want to waste space on my server because it's limited...

I don't know the what and I don't know the how, currently, any input is appreciated.

 

Hi,

I've been playing with a Dell mini PC (OptiPlex 7070) that I set up with Proxmox and a single Debian virtual machine that hosts a bunch of containers (mostly an *arr stack).

All the data resides on the single SSD that came with the machine, but I'm now satisfied with the whole ordeal and would like to migrate my storage from my PC to this solution.

What's the best approach software side? I have a bunch of HD in of varying size and age (therefore expected reliability) and I'd initially dedicate such storage to data I can 100% afford to lose (basically media).

I read I should avoid USB (even though my mini PC exposes a USB-C) for reliability, but on the other hand I'm not sure what other options I have that doesn't force me to buy a NAS or properly sized HD to install inside the machine...

Also, what's a good filesystem for my usecase?

Thank for any tips.
