One day this will be me. After spending weeks troubleshooting a new Linux distro I picked up solely for a NAS I will regail you about stories of how I rummaged through sys files, to get this minute, unimportant thing fixed, that I don't remember how I did it exactly, and pray to god, that I'll never have to fix it again.
HAHA just kidding, I wrote the steps down. Would you like a copy? Framed? For your bedroom?!
Yeah, my friend said it was super easy to set one up. It in fact was not super easy to set one up but 40 hours later it kind of works....
I didn't do it because it was easy, I did it because I thought it would be easy
My wife finally took a look at our finances and she's like what's this charge? I say it's my seedbox. She walks over to my office, points at all my servers I nabbed from work and asks why I'm not running it myself. Laziness mostly. Bought unraid and I honestly don't know how I didn't use this years ago
I have unraid and even that has a bit of a learning curve for us non-network savy people. All the tutorials are like the drawing an owl meme.
Honestly, I didn't know what to do either. I'm a big iron sysadmin but I'm old now, so I'm mostly relegated to management. We have young guys who do all the cloud and virtualization crap and they make me look like the dinosaur that I am.
But like many companies we had AI forced on us, so when I didn't know what filesystem to use on my array I asked Claude. Claude knows everything about unRaid. Every roadblock I hit was answered so thoroughly I hit my usage limit and had to make a note on my profile that Claude was not to make documentation unless I damn well asked for it.
I know AI is not a popular topic but it's honestly made my life better. I've been running Linux since forever but still when an update breaks Arch, and reverting to a snapshot doesn't fix it. I usually just reinstall. Now I don't have to feel stupid asking younger guys how to fix an issue. I just type the issue into Claude, drop into TTY and I have all the info needed to fix it within minutes.
Just yesterday one of my coworkers calls me up and says Santa was good to him and gives me a Radeon that was leaps ahead of what I was running so I checked the CachyOS wiki, thought I was prepared to switch from Nvidia to Radeon and the second the switch was made everything went to shit. Claude to the rescue with all the commands to purge my system of nividia garbage and reinstall the Radeon versions. He also ran me through adding my old nividia card to unraid so I can use it for my vm's.
Interesting. Getting up to speed with Unraid was a challenge and a ton of searching to resolve issues where reinstalling without having to go through 24 hours of parity setup was annoying. I didnt think to use AI.
Someone complaining about ads? Welp, better explain pihole and then slowly go into a rabbit hole of degoogling. Getting off of Microsoft and apple, moving your data out of corpo hands etc.
Bitch that fucking swear jar is goddamned full.
Nah, for that I need an Internet-facing server
