How bad is Ubuntu?
I have been not recommending Ubuntu to people because of obvious reasons (the Amazon search integration and snaps, mainly).

Asahi Cinnamon
Seeing as how I don’t like either Gnome or KDE, though I did give KDE a try, I decided to switch to Cinnamon. Yes, that picture looks odd, I’m short on monitors that’ll fit on the space I have left on my desk, so I’m using an old Dell with a 4:3 ration thanks to an HDMI to VGA converter. Some how there’s dust in the...

If you like romance in fiction, how do you like it? Realistic or Idealistic?
While I was documenting myself to create a romantic work between two women, I made a little detour and read a Manga (Love Hurts, by Kiriko Nananan) that made me wonder if the idea I initially had for my story is too idealistic to the point of bordering on childish. It’s just that the manga portrays interpersonal relationships...

Why Prometheus + Grafana over other monitoring options?
I’ve been setting up and testing prometheus and grafana for about a week now, since that seems to be the universally accepted solution for self-hosted monitoring. But I’m starting to question why it is so accepted. On top of prometheus not seeming useful on it’s own (needing grafana to visualize and alertmanager for...

[OC] Survey Mark
[Question] what is the recommended procedure for replacing a pool on TrueNAS?
I bought some new drives to replace the old ones I had lying around, and want to replace them entirely (4x 1tb -> 2x 4tb). I have a few apps running on it (Syncthing, Transmission, Tailscale, etc.), and I wanted to know what the best way to perform a drive upgrade would be. AFAIK the apps are installed on the pool as well, so...
