I’m curious what issues you had with TrueNAS? I’ve been using it for about a year now and the only issue I have had has been with one of my pools deleting itself after a reboot, but that was user error because I put the wrong SED password in the settings.

On iOS, I tap on my profile in the upper right, and the VPN-on-demand setting is right below my account.

Yeah, our entire IT org has a vendetta against IBM. We were just looking to start implementing Terraform too…

I’ve been using Tailscale for about 2 months now. It has a VPN-on-demand setting that I keep enabled. That way, anytime I am not on my local WiFi, it automatically connects the VPN. According to my battery health settings, Tailscale has used 5% of my battery in the last 10 days. And I am even using a Mullvad exit node, which would use even more battery.

As much as I hate to send anyone to Reddit, the wiki on the Usenet subreddit is great. They explain the concepts and components and have a list of good indexers and providers.

If you have any other questions or need help setting anything up, feel free to send me a PM.

I would really recommend looking into Usenet. I was in your position a few months ago (starting to look for private trackers), but ended up hearing about Usenet and going that route instead. It has been amazing so far. It has everything I am looking for, I don’t need to worry about a VPN, and I can download as fast as my ISP can go, so I get my content in minutes instead of hours. I also don’t have to worry about my VPN disconnecting for some reason and my ISP sending me a nasty letter. The only downside is, if you want the best, you’ll have to pay for an indexer and a downloader, but it’s not that expensive and is certainly worth it for the benefits over torrents.

Wasn’t classic Teams already a web app?

I think it’s this one: https://github.com/truenas/charts.git. It has those apps you mentioned.

Wonder if this will make it playable on Steam Deck. I would love to play this on my Deck, but performance is so bad.

That is what I ended up doing temporarily, but I think I will just make it temporarily permanent. I could likely set up another Docker container to run a DNS server connected to a DoH resolver, and use that container as the DNS server for Traefik, but that’s a lot of work.

I own 3 different domains and just today set up SSL services for them using Traefik (made another post for an issue I’m having with that).

I ended up doing a subnet router and that got me what I was looking for.

Did some more testing to get some details. The error I am getting from Traefik is that Cloudflare cannot create the record because it already exists (PiHole already has the entries). If I delete the records from PiHole, Traefik can then create the TXT records in Cloudflare.

We are an enterprise manufacturing company. We have lots of hosts on process networks not connected to the internet. Seems like the subscription license won’t be compatible, so we plan to seriously look at Proxmox for those in the coming years as we replace hosts.

For our datacenter, we decided to move everything to Azure. This decision was in the works before the license change, but the acquisition by Broadcom and their track record certainly played a part in the conversation.

For our site hosts, we are looking into Azure HCI or possibly Hyper-V, especially since these sites don’t have many VM’s and don’t need features offered by VMware.

If you’re an Azure expert and are looking for a new job, send me a message. We’re hiring.

I tried that several times, but unfortunately it is 100% dead. I tried pulling power probably 10+ times, but same result every time. Ethernet strobes then goes dark, and only power pass through works.

Do they not still intermingle their stock? Last I remember, if a 3rd party seller lists a product that Amazon also sells, the stock is all put together in the Amazon warehouse. I’ve gotten counterfeit electronics even when it says “ships and sold by Amazon”. I’ve started buying from B&H.

I also had this issue after I finally got my AirPods paired to my steam deck. What fixes it for me is after launching the game, open the Steam menu, go to Settings, and change the output device to the built in speakers, then back to the AirPods.

I had the same issue with mine, also in an airport. I ended up renaming them from my iPhone and was then able to pair them.

Edit to add: I thought pairing them from desktop mode may give me better luck, but it actually made things worse for some reason. Even after renaming them, I wasn’t able to pair them in desktop mode. Immediately after switching back to gaming mode, I was able to pair them.

+1 for Veeam. I am a backup administrator and this is our tool of choice. I use it for my home machines as well and it works great.

Just remember, you don’t have a backup unless you have tested it.

Terny has the correct answer here OP. While I have never used Docker in an enterprise environment (manufacturing applications aren’t known for supporting any technology from the last decade at least), I have used Docker extensively in my home lab. You don’t want to modify the container itself, but the image it was created from. The data doesn’t reside in the container itself anyway, but typically a volume attached to the container (assuming it stores anything in the first place). Your best bet will be to figure out what image the container was created from, and modify the image. From there, you can update the existing containers to use the new image, or move them elsewhere if you like.

You mentioned these VM’s are in the cloud. Depending on the hyperscaler, it is likely that you could migrate these to a native container service to save on cost since you wouldn’t have to pay for the overhead of a VM.

Just did some testing. While playing a game and pulling 22w, the battery says about 4 hours. While playing a game with a partially depleted battery pulling the full 40w, it says 2hrs.

If you limit the power you will obviously be able to stretch it quite a bit. Overall, quite a bit of extra playtime.
