Yes. Containers are awesome in that they let you use an application inside a sandbox, but beyond that you can deploy it anywhere.
If you’re in the sysadmin world you should not only embrace Docker but I’d recommend learning k8s, too, if you still enjoy those things.
Just sit them down with it. Kids can figure new technology out.
I feel like people are doing a disservice by using the phrase “toxic masculinity”
You can’t use that phrase without implying masculinity in general is a bad thing. Trying to draw a distinction between “masculinity” and “toxic masculinity” is using the same logic as the people that say “but you’re one of the good ones” when they’re talking to someone of [insert race, gender, religion, etc].
They’re toxic people that cause these problems. There’s nothing wrong with masculinity.
For anyone doing this, set up your spending and budget alerts and actions. It’s possible to accidentally fuck something up and end up with an aws bill that’ll suck, but this will give you some measure of protection from that in case you accidentally misconfigure something.
Note: Create your partitions from your empty space. You may need to resize your existing partition to do this. But don’t practice on your main drive.
This is a simple job, in that the steps are few, but it’s something that causes catastrophic data loss if you get it wrong.
I’d recommend buying a cheap second drive, doesn’t have to be big or even good. Partition it, mount it, make sure you can make the partitions automatically mount, teach yourself to copy data around, umount it and remount, make sure you got it right.
Just… these are all very simple things. I wouldn’t hesitate to repartition my own drives. But if you fuck it up you fuck it up good. Make sure you know the operations you’re taking first. Measure twice, cut once, all that jazz.
Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
Our devices are old hat now. They’re part of our life. Even people who don’t understand them have a vague idea how they work.
They used to be like magic. Now we are desperate for new magic.
Boot from a live distro so you can modify your boot disk. Use the disk utility to create partitions. Copy the data to the relevant partitions ensuring to maintain file ownership and permissions. Modify /etc/fstab to mount the partitions at the designated locations in the filesystem.
I don’t bother putting anything but /home on its own dedicated partition, but if you ask 10 people this question you’ll get 12 opinions, so just do what feels right.
Actually just saw btop mentioned on Lemmy the other day lol
htop and/or btop are more modern user friendly alternatives to the classic top
You might check out xfce. It’s gtk like Gnome but the development team doesn’t have their heads up their asses; pretty much every aspect of xfce can be customized. It should be a simple install from your package manager, whatever distribution you’re using. The downside of this, however, is it might take extensive tweaking to get it to look how you want as it’s a pretty bare bones UI by default. Personally I like it, but ymmv.
That’s the beautiful thing about the Linux world. If you don’t like some aspect there’s virtually always an alternative.
It’s fair to call them terrorists when they attack civilians.
And don’t give me the “what about Israel” bullshit. They can be terrorists, too, it doesn’t make Hamas suddenly freedom fighters for murdering children. A terrorist is a terrorist.
You’ll thank yourself for it later. Things like this take a little longer up front but putting them off has a way of making you have to work around it again and again until, when you get around to correcting it, it takes far more time to undo the workarounds than it would’ve taken to correct it the first time.
I don’t think you understand what root is. By definition it has those permissions because it’s root.
If a different user doesn’t exist then you obviously can’t run the command as that different user. The only solution here is to create a new user account.
Also your image is improperly configured which is something you should fix first.
Yeah my server is an i5 using an onboard GPU so it’s nothing crazy but it’s got 80TB of drive space, so I optimize for what I put my money into.
Hell, sometimes it’s even easier to copy the data to my gaming rig, transcode it, and rsync it back. If I’m done playing for the night and about to go to bed and I have like a TV show or something I know has to be transcoded, I’ll just queue up a job and let it run while I’m sleeping and script it so it rsyncs everything back when it’s done transcoding.
Admittedly the server on which it’s running is pretty beefy and I don’t let it transcode. I’ve got enough disk space that if something spends time transcoding I just optimize it to a new version of the file.
By bandwidth I was speaking in terms of network only, but if you were to run it on a simple server that didn’t do any transcoding it might be ok.
If I’m just using them as a glorified small Linux box it could work pretty well. If you’re going to host services that don’t require a ton of bandwidth you don’t need a hard line or anything. Hell my Plex server is using WiFi (802.11ax but still) and it delivers 4K just fine.
I’m not saying it’s a bad thing, just that it is what it is. I’m all for people making a living. It’s the other idiots here that seem to think capitalism is a bad thing.
I’ve honestly never noticed an issue except occasionally a website requires a pop-up and I miss the notification that a temporary exception needs to be made.
🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ oh boy here I go again
I’ve cut off all but Disney+ and that’s only because my nieces and nephews use it. Everything else just gets put into my 80TB raid now. Could probably do to start purging some of it, but also I wanna keep the writes to a minimum to extend drive life and I’m not anywhere near full.
