The M920q is 8th gen

Ah, ok, I get the general idea now. UCCU uses this software, too (you said you worked for MX, which is based in Lehi… I also work in Lehi 😅), but I gotta be honest - I’m not a huge fan of the mobile app. It just feels like a PWA. But that might just be UCCU’s implementation, so, IDK.

Thanks for the explanation though!

The whole thing 😅 how do I know if my bank uses MX?

Can you elaborate on this some more?

The only thing I’m really questioning is the removal of the Archos devices. I’m sure if this is legit then there are reasons for it, but those devices essentially started the entire Rockbox project.

Today is still 4/1, so I’m going to wait until at least tomorrow before I form an opinion on this.

I have several NFS shares that host multiple docker volumes. So yes.

Sounds like you’re pretty familiar already! I use OMV for my NAS and have several NFS shares for various services. It’s a solid solution IMO.

First and foremost: Do not expose your host system or the OMV admin interface to the internet. Ever. Doing so is only asking for trouble. Only expose services that have been properly isolated from the rest of the network and host system. Everything else you can access via VPN, or locally.

Secondly: OpenMediaVault beginner’s guide by DB Tech. Him, Craft Computing, Hardware Haven, and a few others whose names currently escape me, are all solid sources for learning how to host things at home.

After OMV, I would start with learning Docker and other containerization methods, and VMs.

Go outside and talk to several random people. That’s the average person.

Yes, but the average person doesn’t give a shit about the technical definition. You know what is meant, don’t be pedantic about it.

Some laptops (Thinkpads in particular) are capable of limiting the battery level via a Linux application called tlp so it doesn’t go pop when plugged in 24/7.

Freeware = Free software

Technically true.

Can we ban editorialized headlines? Please? This is incredibly clickbaity.

The VM eats through the battery, that’s the only hangup I have with this. Otherwise that’s a fantastic idea.

Physical machines (except my gaming PC) get Ratchet & Clank character names, and matching labels to go with it. My trusty sidekick Thinkpad T14 G1 is named “Clank”. It runs LMDE.

VMs and LXCs get actually-descriptive names, since those are what run my services.

Gaming PC is called “Dagny”; it’s a Scandinavian name for “a new day”, since that PC was a gift to myself after my divorce. It’s currently the only Windows machine in my house now.

Why is everyone suggesting random third party shit?
