When you make a potentially system breaking change and forgot to make a snapshot of the VM beforehand…

Just run Pi-Hole in a Docker container on your machine. Point your nameserver to localhost and reap the benefits.

In Proxmox they have VirGL-GPU and Virtio-GPU. They allow VMs to pass work to the GPU without being dedicated to one VM. I don’t think gaming was the intended use case and don’t know what kind of performance you would get. My uninformed guess is that it would not be great.

I’ve been a chaotic neutral more times than I would like to admit.

g-unzip?

gun-zip

I used this command way before I used gzip so I didn’t put it together.

Bailing out. You are on your own. Good luck!

They have a pretty good catalog of pre-built Docker containers. You don’t have to use their version of things but there is a lot of software that I was previously unaware of that I learned of through them.

Yeah, I always remember the first game the best. It was an RPG first and a shooter second. The vehicle sections, while terrible did provide a sense of scale that the other games lacked.

For some reason my DNS tends to break the most. I have to reinstall my Pi-hole semi-regularly.

NixOS plus Docker is my preferred setup for hosting applications. Sometime it is a pain to get running but once it does it tends to run. If a container doesn’t work, restart it. If the OS doesn’t work, roll it back.

Does it increase your attack surface? Yes. With proper precautions is this level of risk negligible? Also yes.

You will be opening a port to the outside world. Anyone can try to use it. But if you are using key authentication it will be fine.

I’ve been an actual janitor and a sysadmin… they’re not dissimilar. You clean up other people’s shit for a living.

That’s good to know. Thanks!

His example doesn’t seem to perform any comparisons to determine what to name the file. If the text file is just a list then something like this could work:

$file = Get-Content -Path .\individuals2.txt

foreach ($line in $file) { Copy-Item -Path .\template.docx -Destination “.$(2 + $line + ‘.docs’)” }

Edit: Wow, Lemmy destroys formatting.

Does it have to be a Word template? If you can get that into a plain text format this will be much easier. There may be a module that you can download online otherwise you are probably going to have to do some painful parsing after you import the file using “Get-Content”.

Do you have any code written? This sounds like something that ChatGPT could probably handle pretty well.

I’ve been with Porkbun for over a year now. No complaints.

My GPU is quite literally 15 or 16 years old (I pulled it out of an old server that was being trashed). If you aren’t going to do heavy graphical work and just want to spruce up your desktop performance then really anything is probably fine.

I think both these options require downloading additional libraries on your Proxmox host to work.

Cat tax paid.

Under hardware > display there is an option for VirtiO-GPU and VirGL-GPU. I’m not super knowledgeable but I think these options allows VMs to make system calls to the GPU. I put an ancient Quadro in my server and my RDP sessions were noticeably better.

Setup a virtual desktop on your server and RDP into it to access the web interface. Here is me doing that using my cat as a stand lol.

I’m not sure. All I know is that Proxmox doesn’t recommend using Docker in LXCs. It seems Proxmox has much more control over the internals of the container and can break stuff.

If you want to run application containers, for example, Docker images, it is recommended that you run them inside a Proxmox QEMU VM. This will give you all the advantages of application containerization, while also providing the benefits that VMs offer, such as strong isolation from the host and the ability to live-migrate, which otherwise isn’t possible with containers.
