Very. It’s like molasses.
Which is why I said “in theory”
My network actually ran better when my OpnSense was virtualized on a Proxmox server running atop a Dell Optiplex 790 MT from like 2013, than it is currently on a bare metal Sophos SG-135v2.
But that is because the sophos has 8 ports. And all 8 are a separate interface, so to use them as a switch requires bridging 7 of the 8.
And that slows things down tremendously. I really just need an 8 port switch in there, I guess.
The upshot is, the sophos came with rack mounts.
Well… in theory, that particular line is just saying data shouldn’t be political…
cries in broke
I have 4x3TiB drives in a currently-degraded RAIDZ1 due to a hard drive failure. I have a replacement coming, and my fingers are crossed that I don’t lose another drive beforehand.
I tried tdarr, but have issues using more than one node. I may just wind up installing docker on my more powerful desktop specifically for tdarr, instead of on the proxmox server I have without a real gpu. (It’s a Xeon Supermicro board with their onboard VGA)
By your logic then, capitalism is great, because that means no one would’ve engineered these crazy locks but instead just used the tried and true ones.
Wait. That’s not what happened?
Oh.
I actually had to force it via the CLI.
ha core update
That didn’t work either, I had to manually specify the version:
ha core update --version 2025.7.0
Is there some trick to getting this installed? My HAOS instance (x64 generic) has no updates pending despite refreshing by clicking “Check for updates” in the android app…
Oh no. Of course not.
We can’t actually show ways to defeat government overreach, we can only allude to its existence!
Hell, windows itself does it.
I can tell you that Mediacom cable will cut your service off for it, and you have to call in and get scolded before they turn it back on.
And, if it happens 3 times, your service is disconnected permanently.
What’s crazy is that Trump claims to be against the current ruling in Sony’s favor, and is siding with Cox.
We have a choice between T-Mobile 5G, 3M ADSL, coax docsis and Starlink.
Of those, the most reliable is the DSL, then Starlink, and it’s a tossup whether the T-Mobile or the Mediacom DOCSIS is the least reliable
I worked for Mediacom for 5 years. It wasn’t reliable then either, but at least then, I didn’t have to play the “first we have to send out a tech that may not actually show up the first time because it’s working at the exact moment he checks before he cancels the call” game.
When I left them, we switched to DSL, which was … painful, but we managed for a couple of years. Then the pandemic happened, and the kiddo went to remote schooling, and the DSL just couldn’t handle it. So we used the “reduced cost” internet plan for going back to Mediacom.
Except after months of fighting to actually get the reduced price plan we were supposed to be getting, we were told the T-Mobile now serviced our area, and switched with glee.
And for almost 3 years it was GREAT. But in the past year or so, we began having horrendous service issues. Speeds were no better, and sometimes even worse than the DSL we had previously.
Finally, I had enough, and bit the bullet and switched to Starlink.
Now, our service is great. The bill isn’t, because let’s face it, $120 a month for 200ish Mbps down and 50ish up is nuts, but at least we have fast, reliable service now.
Eh, IoT devices typically use 2.4ghz, or even 933mhz…
No shit? The thing security geeks have been warning about for years with all the cameras everywhere actually happened?
No way! Whodathunkit?
Why is it that so many people do absolutely zero maintenance on their computers, and think that’s completely normal?
Clean that bitch out at the very least. Allowing dust to build up in all the little books and crannies means it’s not getting enough air flow.
It’s typically common sense that when your AC isn’t working well, you clean/replace the filter(s) to keep it operating at peak efficiency, and if you don’t, you risk burning up fan and/or compressor motors.
Same thing with your car’s cooling system. Keep that radiator grill clean of mud and dirt, or it’s more likely to overheat and burn up your engine.
Why the fuck don’t people think of that when it comes to their computers just blows my damn mind.
A tube of Arctic Silver thermal grease is less than 10 bucks. A can of compressed air is like 20 bucks, and will typically last for months.
Once a month, take the PC case outside, and blow out all the damn dust.
Every year or so, replace the thermal grease/paste.
“My computer runs slower and slower as times goes by!” Yeah no shit, it’s trying not to burn itself up. Clean the fucker.
Because why have 3 devices when one can do it for less cost?
You sure that’s what is happening, and it’s not just mounting a different snapshot/dataset being mounted “on top” ?
I’ve seen it happen, which is why I ask. Assume the root dataset is named pool0 and has set0 set1 and set1/set2 as child datasets.
Their mount points are as follows:
/pool0/set0
/pool0/set1
/pool0/set1/set2
Now, if somehow, say set2 gets unmounted.temporarily, and you save files to /pool0/set1/set2 while the data set is not mounted, it’ll actually put those files in the set1 dataset, under the set2 directory.
But, when you mount the pool0/set1/set2 dataset again, the files under the set1 dataset are hidden by the set2 child.
Am I explaining it well enough for you to follow along?
Make sure you don’t have some similar situation by temporarily unmounting any nested datasets and ls’ing their mount points.
