Yep, the problem was that docker started before the NFS mount. Adding the dependency to my systemd docker unit did the trick!

isn’t it an annoyance having to connect to your home network all the time?

It’s less annoying than the gnawing fear that my network might be an easy target for attackers.

Proliant G9 is an EoL server that hasn’t been sold since 2018. Meanwhile, Debian bookworm released last year. I’d be surprised if the problem were that your installer gave you a kernel that’s too old.

What is the output of ip addr show?

It might also be worth ruling out low-level issues:

• Check for anything strange in the BIOS related to disks (fwupdmgr can automatically install BIOS updates from a live Linux session. I don’t know if Bazzite does this)
• Try using a different SATA port
• Run some SMART tests on your drives

To be pedantic, Ford’s threat is to “rearrange [the computer’s] memory banks with an axe”

The countdown is until he starts doing it.

A much better idea than when I tried to organize my restaurant with hashtables.

It was too much for the waitstaff, who had to reindex the floor plan every time they added or removed a plate.

On the plus side, delivering the right food was always O(1).

Surely this could be good, right?

If celebrities need to be accessible to their biggest fans, maybe it would induce them to leave the birdsite? And if this is as big a migration as the article suggests, it has the potential to snowball in network effects, giving other influential users one less reason to feel chained to a dumpster fire.

Yes, OP I highly recommend a GL.iNet device. It’s pocket sized and always does the job.

It’s also great for shitty wifi that tries to limit how many devices you can connect. The router will appear as one MAC and then all your other devices can route traffic through it.

A story I heard was that it was the poor indigenous farmers who were forced to cultivate coffee for the Dutch. They weren’t allowed any of the beans they grew, but were able to collect it from the dung of civets that prowled around near the plantation. Of course, once the colonizers learned that it tasted “good”, it was commoditized too.

Might be apocryphal.

Why’d ye spill yer memes, Winslow? Why’d ye spill yer memes?

As someone who has owned enterprise servers for self-hosting, I agree with the previous comment that you should avoid owning one if you can. They might be cheap, but your longterm ownership costs are going to be higher. That’s because as the server breaks down, you’ll be competing with other people for a dwindling supply of compatible parts. Unlike consumer PCs, server hardware is incredibly vendor locked. Hell, my last Proliant would keep the fans ramped at 100% because I installed a HDD that the BIOS didn’t like. This was after I spent weeks tracking down a disk that would at least be recognized, and the only drives I could find were already heavily used.

My latest server is built with consumer parts fit into a 2U rack case, and I sleep so much easier knowing I can replace any of the parts myself with brand new alternatives.

Plus as others have said, a 1U can be really loud. I don’t care about the sound of my gaming computer, but that poweredge was so obnoxious that despite being in the basement, I had to smother it with blankets just so the fans didn’t annoy me when I was watching TV upstairs. I still have a 1U Dell Poweredge, but I specifically sought out the generation that still let you hack the fan speeds in IPMI. From all my research, no such hack exists for the Proliant line.

The problem with chromebooks is that the base specs are pretty shit. A lot of them have 4 GiB of RAM and maybe 16GiB of disk if you’re lucky.

They were designed to be thin clients to connect students to the internet, and little else. Maybe they could be hacked into something useful, but I don’t think it’ll ever make a good PC. They were always destined for the landfill.

Meanwhile, the best thinkpads were quality machines back when they came out. IMO, that’s why they’re still so versatile today. Free software can’t fix bad fundamentals.

Not sure what motherboard you have: Most consumer boards only support “FakeRAID”, which requires a kernel driver to actually function. Good luck finding a vendor who wrote a driver for Linux.

I’d definitely recommend software RAID instead, as you’ll have better support. I like btrfs, so I’d recommend you set up your new drives to use a btrfs RAID configuration. mdadm is another option, if you really like ext4.

On Linux, I run fwupdmgr to periodically check for firmware updates. Not every manufacturer supports it yet, but I’ve had good results with a few laptops. Not sure if it supports BIOS.

Also though, I generally try to leave my BIOS alone if everything is working fine. Unless I hear of a reason to update, I’d rather stay on a stable version.

Are you an emacs user?

Try org-roam. It’s a similar system to obsidian, but fully open source. You have all the note taking techniques of org-mode, and all the scripting power of emacs.

Assuming that the disk is of identical (or greater) capacity to the one being replaced, you can run btrfs replace.

https://wiki.tnonline.net/w/Btrfs/Replacing_a_disk#Replacing_with_equal_sized_or_a_larger_disk

I’d recommend BTRFS in RAID1 over hardware or mdadm raid. You get FS snapshotting as a feature, which would be nice before running a system update.

For disk drives, I’d recommend new if you can afford them. You should look into shucking: It’s where you buy an external drive and then remove (shuck) the HDD from inside. You can get enterprise grade disks for cheaper than buying that same disk on its own. The website https://shucks.top tracks the price of various disk drives, letting you know when there are good deals.

As an emacs user, I use M-x man. All my standard keybindings make finding what I need very easy.

Of course, it’s not so fast if you aren’t already in emacs.
