Same. It works great.

I don’t want to be too specific for opsec reasons. But windows 10 is the OS. OFX aka OpenFX.
I’m familiar with Proxmox, virtualbox, and KVM/KVM manager.
If I want to set up a PC to virtualize multiple operating systems, but with the feel of a multiboot system, what virtualization software would you suggest?
My goal is for the closest I can get to a multiboot system (windows, Debian, fedora) but virtualized so I can make snapshots. It should feel like I’m on baremetal when inside the VM.
Virtualbox is clunky with lots of pesky UI cluttering the screen and Proxmox doesn’t seem great for this use case.
Most important term to research regarding arr apps is “hardlinking”. Make sure you have your apps configur ed with hardlinks. Everything else is pretty easy and self explanatory.
I replaced the drives, installed the newest version of PVE, then restored all of my VMs from local USB backup. I had to reconfigure a number of things such as HDD pass through and other network settings, but in the end the migration was a success.
I don’t work in IT at all. My self hosting journey started when I got sick of feeling powerless in the face of big tech companies who are increasingly ripping off customers or violating their right to privacy. There’s also the general mistrust that comes from my data being repeatedly breached or leaked because share holder profits are more important than investing in basic security.
Yeah I would suggest buying another NIC. They’re cheap, its good security, and it opens up another port upstream for other uses.
I use the pcie coral and it works fine with plenty of processing to spare although I believe mine coast e closer to $50. I have 6 amcrest PoE cameras. You should just buy a PoE switch and directly connect all cameras to it. Then link that directly to your frigate box and lock down access. Any amcrest camera should work well with frigate. I believe they all support rtsp protocol.
Appreciate the thorough reply. Mind sharing which service you used to download your Spotify tracks?
I feel you but I’ve already got curated playlists of over 3,000 songs me and friends have spent a few years putting together. I actually don’t mind the idea of pulling each artists whole disco as lidarr does. My current roadblock is the lack of good resources/tools that automate the process.
I operate an invidious instance. Google has really cracked down the past two weeks on YouTube front ends. Its extremely frustrating.
Invidious devs are finalizing a workaround so hopefully things will be working again in the next week or two.
Is there a way to automate downloads? As mentioned in my original post I’m hoping to essentially mirror a few Spotify playlists and have my server automatically download either all of the songs on the playlist or all of the songs by the artists appearing on the playlists.
Damn. You’re correct. My brain saw instance and ignored the rest.
Looking in the NewPipe settings I found a place to enter instances and there is one already configured. I guess I was proxied the whole time without realizing. Thanks for the clarification btw.
I often wish all services could provide an opt out “I’m aware no 2fa is risky but I really don’t give a damn about this account so fuck off with the constant email verifications”. Or if companies insist on forcing 2fa, at least support hardware keys. Don’t even get me started about banks…
If iMessages are e2ee and you aren’t using iCloud, is there any evidence your messages aren’t private? As far as I’m aware iMessage is considered a very secure messaging channel. It seems like most people distrust it due to the Apple affiliation. Not that I blame them, I feel the same about Google.
Just for the sake of getting used to / transitioning to a single gos phone, does it make sense to use the insecure phone as a hotspot and utilize the pixel without a sim (so data only device). I would be using e2e encrypted apps for texts and calls so this makes sense in my head.
Appreciate the info.
It seems absurd to me that a third party online service is required for a hardware key to work in the first place. I figured it would be authenticating strictly between the locked service and the user.
Most helpful comment. Thank you. I’m heavily considering carrying two phones. My biggest hurdle is the Yubikey at this point because it locks me out of my password manager and most of my more important apps.
You mention using the usb-c connection. I tried that but it doesn’t seem to register. I guess I just need to research some more.
Thanks for giving me some hope!
I was in your position recently and decided to install PVE from scratch and restore VMs from backup.
I had a fairly complex PVE config so it took some additional work to get everything up and running. But it was absolutely worth it.
