Use either proxmox or unraid. Don't stack.

They are both great in their own respects but you need to choose what works for you and your hardware.

Up until recently I liked unraid due to being able to use multiple disks with different capacities. You don't really have that freedom with proxmox.

Wtf is this? They inflated their prices throughout COVID and are now "pulling them back"?

The thing is I believe that statement is a bit misunderstood.

Calculators were already becoming pocket sized back in the day, but using it to calculate things if you don't know how to use it is where the actual problem is.

Hence the reasoning to learn how to math vs only having the device.

Sure, it's like denuvo on games if you are familiar. First it was "security" then it was adding third party bullshit that isnt removable only "freezable". Hogging resources and killing performance.

Yes that's exactly what the person you replied to was saying.

DMCA was built to save IP, however it's routinely abused and used for censorship. And not a single thing is done to the abusers so they continue with their nonsense.

Oh man, I was a bit worried. I paid for top dollar equipment for my rig and I would hate for my system to not sweat with a malnourished start menu.

I would doubt it. Shit even in Sweden pay for working at McDonald's is pretty solid.

That's on the company for paying pennies for their dev and production roles.

Only with you there bby

I think they meant why wait to switch to Linux not the why wait to purchase newer hardware.

I have found the problem. You're supposed to be laying on it, not the table laying on you.

No my guy, the hero doesn't always win in the real world. This is where you get placed on PIP or start having performance issues, or get a promotion to a different team where there is a clash with your new manager.

Given any opportunity I will always be for a union but good damn if the cards aren't stacked against unions.

Best of luck jjlinux. I hope you have a ton of fun getting your system up and running.

I have the following and it works really well.

Do you have any examples of things they could try or implement?

Well technically it's not Google, it's their mother company Alphabet. Tons of companies are built up like this.

I get what you are implying but it's quite the norm.

You're correct, with a bit more know how and knowledge it's completely doable. Quick question maybe, once you create a pool and are utilizing it, are you able to add/remove drives as needed or does that require additional work to be completed? I am under the impression that the pools can be created with a variety of drives but making any physical adjustments are a bit of trouble.

However, I do appreciate you posting about this, maybe it'll help someone else that might be browsing through here. Thank you.

Nice, I'm sure that adding a theming system would be do able. What type of interface do you think would work better than what it currently has?

Use trash guides to set it up. Works beautifully with a massive index of shows and movies.

You're welcome, have fun :). You can also setup virtual machines to see if you like the look and feel before actually installing it on your system.

This way you'll be able to try a handful of distros at a time, just a bit of a speed run so you can get to the one you want faster.

Wrong.

Not OP, but for a while I tried using Ubuntu and Mint but kept on having random issues with my printer/scanner combo (Brother) and a couple of other problems that I don't remember before I just gave up and switched over to pop.

Been using it as my daily driver for a couple of years now and even the one time I did have something go sideways I was helped by people on the Telegram channel.

On a side note there have been a couple of ranking lists released on YouTube and one of them noted that the desktop is a bit outdated but I really like the tiling window manager that pop has. Sure it eats shit sometimes but as of recently I haven't had to think about it at all. I'm excited to see the new desktop that they are currently developing as well.

I've been daily driving pop for about 3 years now on my desktop built with components from almost 6 years ago. Much smoother of an experience than Ubuntu (yes pop is derived from Ubuntu) and tiers above the rest.

Nice okay, alright so just wondering what distro you running with and what hardware do you have?

We can break it down from there to see if you are being affected or not.

blasting shit from ass It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Thank you for the reply. You are correct, I understand it's a system service and something that people wouldn't really notice if it's been updated or maybe their distro has recently migrated over from pulse audio. Hell maybe even unknowingly following some random guide while trying to do something or fix something. All that we know from OP is that they are asking how to tell if they are affected.

My question was as basic and as generic as it could be. Has your battery life been quite poor as of late? As in have you had to plug in your system more throughout the day?

Regardless of technical experience or aptitude most people would notice a change in the norm of using something they use daily. If they don't, there wouldn't be any questions and it would be the normal day to day.

Now my thought process was to see what they said, yes or no for the battery life. And then to get more info to put together something they could follow and either confirm impact from the bug or not.

Usenet doesn't have much from what I can see relating to books and comics. I'm part of I think 8 or 9 indexers and I've had to find alt sources.

Try it. You're asking for something subjective and dependent on hardware and use case.

For example I had a ton of trouble with mint. I tried Ubuntu and it was okay. I then tried popos and have been running it for over 3 years now and I've had maybe one large hiccup but nothing but a stable system.

Hey not a problem dino, I get it your post is quite helpful.

Now jog my memory, how did you help the person asking if they're affected by this bug or not?

The 13 others that have a problem with my question also chose to not offer anything useful for ops question.

Has your battery life been about half of what it used to be after installing pipe wire?

[Yes] [No]
