How easy is it to switch back to windows?

I’m considering switching to linux but I’m not a computer savvy person, so I wanted to have the option to switch back to windows if unforeseen complications (I only have 1 pc). Is it just a download on usb and install? And what ways can I get the product key or “cleaner” debloated versions.

burn it in a usb stick before you nuke it to install linux

This is very very important unless you have another windows computer around. Took me a whole day to figure out how to properly burn a windows install USB from linux. It isn’t straightforward.

I walked into a Whole Foods for the first time a little while back for an Amazon return, I saw the $9 gallon of milk and walked right out.

Hopefully the price slashing is significant.

My LinuxServer container stopped listening on the Jellyfin port. Not sure if related to the update 🤔

Was good to get a heads up that Traffic v3 was out. Made some time to update over the weekend.

I’m really enjoying watching City Planner Plays play it. There’s lots of attention to detail, easy to immerse yourself in it.

Duo was so much better than Meet. What a backwards move.

I was surprised to find Gemini had replaced assistant. It couldn’t even add items to the shopping list. Thankfully one is able to revert the change.

Been doing a whole lot less of that now that copilot is up and running. Didn’t expect it to be such a productivity booster tbh.

I just wish it supported hashtags, the feeds thing it has going on feels clumsy. Sticking to Mastodon for now.

I use pihole for managing DNS and DHCP. It’s run via docker and the compose file and dnsmasq configs are version controlled so if the Pi dies I can just bring it up on another Pi.

The Pi with pihole has a static IP to avoid some of the issues you described.

@erre@programming.dev avatar

I’ve been meaning to standup another pihole on another pi for DNS redundancy. I have to research how to best keep the piholes in sync. So far I’ve found orbital-sync and gravity-sync.

Does the controller software have to run 24/7 or only when you need to make config changes?

I’m looking into the Omada ecosystem and wondering if the hardware controller is crucial or a convenience that can be deferred.

I’d recommend giving the ASUS Merlin firmware a try if you feel up to it. It might work out better than stock firmware if that’s what you’re running.

Thank you! Glad to find out the Jellyfin Roku up got such a substantial update.

erre ,
@erre@programming.dev avatar

I think it depends on your clients. If you’re using Roku, you can skip Jellyfin…sadly.

@erre@programming.dev avatar

Still gotta pay for guide data iirc. Has that changed?

An update for the Roku app was released 5 days ago which massively improves it (finally an OSD!). It’s getting there.

That’s good. A lot of communities have been slowly dying 🫤 I’ve been using Mastodon more and more but it’s not the same.

    I could have sworn that Keep was the initial location for shopping lists when using Assistant before getting moved to Shopping List. Now they’re going back?

    I grew to prefer Shopping List 😞
    My SO doesn’t use Keep and will now have to install it if they want to view the household shopping list.

    I gotta resist the urge… I have two Pis idle 🤦‍♂️

    erre ,
    @erre@programming.dev avatar

    I have four Pis. They’re running Pihole DNS & DHCP, a reverse proxy, and torrent clients. I don’t have them setup as a cluster, been meaning to look into it but I don’t want to add complexity so I’m putting it off.

    I just want to reiterate that it is a major pain creating a bootable Windows installation USB drive on a Linux or macOS system. It’d be prudent to create it before installing Linux or make sure you have another Windows computer accessible to you to avoid some headaches if needed.

    Gah, treasure trove of info. Thank you for sharing! How’s the garage rack holding up? I’m so tempted to put some servers in my garage but the heat can get excessive.
