This paired with moonlight & sunshine will work perfectly.

I went Win > Mint > Manjaro (for a day) > Arch

I had this issue so many times, I ended up re installing and having everything on 1 partition instead of separating root and home

It looks pretty good but its usability is shit

Not seeing anyone suggesting unRAID… it’s perfect for this kind of thing (from experience). VMs, LXC, Docker & flexible storage options.

Has its own App Store built in as well🤷‍♀️

Thanks good to know, after I hit this upload limit with one of my services I honestly considered nuking the whole nginx setup and using WG or TS, still on the fence about it all

100mb is the max I think

I worked in a small team and our stuff rarely broke. We set it all up to use minimal resources and mostly automated maintenance and we went unnoticed for most of my time there. Everyone else thought we were just sitting around doing nothing and getting paid for it. It created an uncomfortable environment, was glad to leave at the end of it.

Did Linux sys admin type work for a few years and can confirm there was never a DE in sight

Been using nextcloud for about 5 years, right now I use it for storing files and nothing else, and it still kinda sucks at that.

Gonna use paperless for any documents I have in NC, after that there won’t be much left in there, just some old dot files. Maybe I’ll get rid of it entirely

I found the gentoo iso really hard to watch, couldn’t really finish is

Debian was good though, 10/10 would watch again

I don’t like the use of the word cloud, makes it sound like some mystical virtual environment in the sky that anyone can use and it just works.

It’s someone else’s computer, nothing more

I set mine to 5G I think but it seems to be a common issue with iOS from what I’ve seen on GitHub. I’ve got a 14 pro and videos are usually really large file sizes which doesn’t help.

After posting this I found that you can change the directory structure, but not too sure I want to change it now and break things. I’ll set my backup to only include the library folder, I could always run a script to take all the image and video files out and throw them into a single folder for a fresh start of immich or something similar.

I use rclone as well, for uploading to G Drive.

Looks like that wiki page is out of date, you no longer need to dump your bios and patch it. I’ve never really found a need to control the host when running a VM, but SSH is a decent option if you only plan to use terminal apps.

Have you set up a VM with KVM and it’s working? There shouldn’t be much else to do, just install your gpu drivers and play some games, or run your windows application :)

You don’t need to do work around for nvidia GPU’s for VM’s anymore, works pretty much the same as AMD

Using KVM, you can use do full GPU pass through to any OS from your host without a need for a second GPU (including integrated graphics).

Works with AMD and nvidia cards, I’ve even done this with a macOS VM.

Here’s a guide that’s the easiest I’ve found to follow. It includes some automated scripts.

https://github.com/BigAnteater/KVM-GPU-Passthrough - this guide is for Arch Linux, but the scripts and configs should work the same on any OS, you’ll just need to make sure the correct packages are installed.

Like you mentioned, there are some hardware requirements to do this, but most modern hardware supports it. Also, if you are running the VM then using SSH to control your host is probably your only option, but shutting down your VM should take you back to your display manager so there’s no rebooting.

I used this set up to play warzone for a while, performance was just as good as windows on bare metal.

Some notes from my experience:

1. if you upgrade your host’s kernel, then reboot before trying to start your VM.

2 There are 2 scripts that will be built for you, vfio-startup and vfio-teardown. They will unload and reload kernel modules as needed so you’ll want to check if they are needed. My nvidia drivers are built into the kernel, so I couldn’t unload them, which stalled the VM startup.

3. It might take some trial and error, if your VM doesn’t start after you attach the GPU then check the logs under /var/log/libvirt (or wherever your libvirt logs to)

You can do VM’s with a single gpu these days, no need for 2

Ship names from the expanse.

My PC is the Rocinante My home server was previously the Behemoth, put it in a smaller case so now it’s Medina.

Did you get anywhere with this?
