ITGuyLevi , to selfhosted in N100 Mini PC w/ 3xNVMe?

I have a few servers that have been booting from USB for years. Two of my old freenas boxes (now just hosting backups of data from unraid), have been booting off the same USB sticks for almost 10 years now. In addition to the freenas boxes I use internal USB drives on Unraid, ProxMox, and ESXi hosts (had to try them all).

Its a risk, but having a cloned USB as a backup can mitigate it a bit.

That’s a really awesome idea. If I ever need an actual Windows install I’m totally going that route!

The argument could be made (and probably will be) that they promote those activities by allowing their algorithms to promote that content. Its’s a dangerous precedent to set, but not unlikely given the recent rulings.

Or, you set your steam account up as a company. Still a “person” for legal purposes, but can be handed down.

Totally just joking, but maybe…

ITGuyLevi , to news in Missouri law bars divorce during pregnancy – even in cases of violence

Ahh yes, the wealthiest country on Earth and if you’re pregnant, it would not be economical to not be beaten by a POS human that beats you and your child.

Seriously though, had she left and crossed state lines, she could have lost both her kids.

ITGuyLevi , to news in Missouri law bars divorce during pregnancy – even in cases of violence

I was under the impression the reason she couldn’t leave was because she was pregnant. I’ll reread the article, but I didn’t notice it being because she was entitled to half the property they acquired as a couple.

My title has changed so many times, Sysadmin is so much easier and to the point.

ITGuyLevi , to asklemmy in What item do you own that has an unexpectedly high value?

I used to frequent a thrift shop that gave books away for free, I saw a copy of Cloud Atlas and thought it would be a good read (it was). I accidentally for the dust cover a little then looked at the title page, signed first edition. Not worth much, but cool nonetheless.

ITGuyLevi , to linux in I tried, I really did

Don’t give up too easily friend. I’ve been slowly moving some of my hone systems away from Window’s, and much like you, I’ve spent close to 20 years as a Windows admin. I have the advantage of using Linux on my always ancient laptops over the years and it is my personal opinion that Debian is the way to go.

Give LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) a go, it is very familiar to navigate coming from Windows and isn’t going to have constant updates breaking stuff (looking at you Arch).

First thing after installing run apt-get update, then add the Nvidia drivers (add the source to your sources and install, if you need help, post back and we’ve got you!) and reboot.

ITGuyLevi , to asklemmy in My home came with security cameras already installed. What is a good dvr box I can use to control them?

My goal is to move to nice IP cams one day but for now I have analog cameras and a DVR in the closet hooked to a cheap monitor that’s paid for.

Try the app IPCamViewer by Robert Chou (here is a link to the lite version, I think there is an iOS one as well play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rcreati…). It can view damn near any brand DVR, that at least let me view stuff remotely.

If you want to up it another level, if your old school DVR supports RTSP, you can probably feed that into something like Frigate for real time alerts and object detection.

ITGuyLevi , to lemmyshitpost in It's as if my eyes have been opened for the very first time...

Where I live we usually put a batter in the waffle iron, doughs usually get shaped and put on a pan (or put into a loaf pan to make bread shaped bread). All that being said, I’m in the southern US, we aren’t known for making sense most the time.
