Thank you for making so many awesome things! I hosted a worker on AI Horde for a few weeks a while back. Do you know if old mining rigs are useful for that? The GPUs have a PCIe x1 connection but have 8GiB VRAM. Separately do you know if AMD Radeon RX580s are capable of contributing to AI Horde?

These are the types of experiences I wish were made available for VR.

And here I am running a bare metal k3s cluster fully managed by custom ansible playbooks with my templatized custom manifests. I definitely learned a lot going that way. This project looks like it has just about everything covered except high availability or redundancy, but maybe I missed it in the readme. Good work but definitely not for me.

My first arch system and so far haven’t completely borked it yet haha

My biggest complains with Ubuntu lately are Firefox is a snap package and when it updates it yells at me to close Firefox so it can update it and if I wait too long it forces the it closed, and it gives me countdown notifications. Annoying and something out of Windows 10 forced reboot type shit. The other is the automatic apr upgrades break cuda/nvidia drivers forcing me to reboot the whole system. Pain in the ass.

I know this isn’t what you’re asking for but I think this is still a good starting point. Like you correctly surmised, identity and authentication management is not an easy subject and does require extensive experience and theory.

Oo so you’re wanting to set up a VPN to cover your tracks with usage of those apps and you’re wondering the best place to set up the client, either at the VM level or network level? Network level is going to be more robust but will require additional configuration to allow non-VPN traffic to work correctly, etc. If TrueNAS is deprecated, then I suggest you don’t put it there. The VM approach could work if configured correctly.

I turned off the streaming services and went back to mp3s. Jellyfin has Finamp and there’s also VLC and others I’m sure.

Could the planet have been captured after the ballooned red dwarf shrank? E.g. a wandering planet. Or could something have made its orbit shift, e.g. if it was farther out and now it’s closer in?

It could be a notification for a webpage? I think it has to do websockets for that, but I’m not 100% sure

Sounds like a pretty amazing project tbh. Any chance you will show that off or demo at any point? Is it an open project or are you planning to sell it or is it just for internal use?

I maxed out the free tier in my first month somehow lol… $20/yr isn't a bad deal for essentially pihole everywhere.
