China spending 1/20 of what the US does to subsidize cars isn’t relevant? Sure thing buddy.
The whole point of all of these “china is only dominating in EV sales due to subsidies” comments is to throw shade on China’s impressive progress in clean tech. A contrast of their subsidies vs other countries in the same space, motor vehicles, is entirely relevant.
You should learn about US fossil fuel subsidies. The US alone pumps almost 800 billion/yr into subsidising the industry. Total subsidies worldwide are around 7 trillion/yr.
China tossing 40 Billion/yr into EV/battery subsidies is basically pocket change.
OP, If you dont have a proxmox vm template ready to go, here is a great starting place using cloudinit:
https://github.com/UntouchedWagons/Ubuntu-CloudInit-Docs
You can use this with the proxmox gui cloudinit config as well to add your ssh key to each vm/etc.
The video is 2 years old. Any new developments?
Backup is step one, or even step 0, of setting up a server. The amount of frustration and even job loss a backup can prevent is always worth the expense of time/money.
Backup can be setup scripts/config files/automation if the data doesnt matter, but you do need it. Also, even if they say the data doesn’t matter, the data almost always matters. It may not now, but it will in 3 years when people use the server for real work and everyone just doesnt even begin to think about a backup until the server fails one day and they lose years worth of their grant and thesis data.
Backups can be simple, they can be complex. They can be free or pay, they can have gui or just be scripts. Settle on one that you can make work, and CHECK THEM OCCASIONALLY with test restores of at least a few files. If you dont test and find a working backup, you have hope, not resiliency.
The jury basically did exactly that. They weren’t buying Tesla’s multi-year denial that they had the data as an “oopsy doopsy” story.
They found Tesla liable for $235 million. It’s the first case Tesla hasent been able to settle, and that’s a big ol’ number. They are going to have more lawsuits coming.
