Have got two of my family members onto bitwarden and even that is a lot for the tech-illiterate. Couldn’t imagine Keepass+syncthing.

Ultimately, bitwarden is better than using hunter12 for everything like how they were.

Maybe it’s cause I’m a dad now but this really resonates with me.

He has to be aware how niche his passion is, but he does it anyway in defiance.

Indeed, clearly an inferior OS.

Opensuse tumbleweeds, superior to Jimmy, has come as a best of both worlds.

We all know black-pilled Linux from scratch is the best. Gentoo is just a bit too bloated.

AKA the “I cooked my install” button.

The telescreen received and transmitted simultaneously. Any sound that Winston made, above the level of a very low whisper, would be picked up by it; moreover, so long as he remained within the field of vision which the metal plaque commanded, he could be seen as well as heard. There was of course no way of knowing whether you were being watched at any given moment.

I agree, and it’s been a fine experience with nvidia on Xorg. “Buy new hardware” is not what someone getting into Linux should hear though if we want to increase the number of Linux users.

Ah yes, a perfectly normal thing to do after I’ve previously spent thousands on my NVIDIA GPU and am just getting into Linux. Love this comment when it comes up.

I think there’s an obsidian extension that allows you to basically save the notes in a github repository, making it cloud based kind of.

Oh damn, that’s disappointing about the subscription.

Yep Docker is currently possible, but there’s plenty of threads discussing that it is being phased out.

But yeah, I suppose the solution could be a VM running Debian and then Docker within that.

I think the IX Systems would rather Truenas scale be an enterprise OS, and have short patience for people learning the ropes.

Kubernetes to me is a lot more complicated than Docker, but I’m sure in an enterprise environment where you have many systems to administrate it is superior. Docker would be a better, simpler solution for a person at home with one computer being used for their personal virtualisation.

I think going back in time I would go for Unraid, and use Docker containers. Apparently it is better documented, more beginner-friendly. It is a one-off payment, but it is reasonably cheap. Community seems much friendlier too.

Bear in mind I haven’t used unraid, so potentially there is a grass is always greener situation going on here.

That said, I have thought about running a VM in TrueNAS so I don’t need to muck around with kubernetes and using a discord chat for troubleshooting.

All the best!

I use Truenas scale.

For virtualisation, most people use a community run set of apps called Truecharts. I will say that documentation/support for this is rubbish. They have a discord server only really there. Very hostile community in general.

Not sure why kubernetes is used. Docker is being phased out and will stop being supported in the future.

Also, the latest version of scale broke onedrive backups, which were handled by the gui, and now you’re on the own to run rclone via the cli. Definitely, the devs are not working on a fix as stated in forum posts. This is a pretty fundamental requirement of an at-home NAS for anyone using onedrive for photo backup say.

Ix system forum devs are rude. I haven’t posted there but searching through other people’s threads for solutions to my problems show dismissive unhelpful answers by the devs/users.

All this is to say Truenas virtualisation is compromised, poorly documented, and run by a hostile community of devs both in true charts and the ix systems forums.

I regret not trying a different nas os, but I’m a bit invested now.
