You can't help morons unfortunately.
My father is Gen 1 of immigrant parents. His parents HATED Trump. Yet he voted for Trump all three times.
I have a GenZ sister-in-law that uses ChatGPT for relationship advice. Like copies and pastes responses from men into ChatGPT and asks what they're "really saying" or "what their intentions are", instead of you know, JUST ASKING THE PERSON OUTRIGHT.
We're fucked
TIL there is a whole ass mediawiki for explaining XKCD comics.
This is why I stopped using Twitch(among other things). Kept making it harder and harder to block ads, content experience got worse because of it, so I just stopped using the platform entirely.
Kind of, TrueNAS has "CORE" which is FreeBSD and "SCALE" which is Linux.
If you're on CORE 13.X you can actually side-grade over to SCALE.
CORE is in maintenance only and SCALE is the path forward. So you can still get some updates on CORE I think, but everyone should be switching over to SCALE or using SCALE from here on out.
Proxmox recommends to not install anything directly on the proxmox host/baremetal.
Personally I would set this up as:
Proxmox installed on whatever single disk or raid 1 array.
Create a TrueNAS(or whatever OS you want) VM inside Proxmox. Mount the rest of the drives directly to the TrueNAS VM via Proxmox's interface.
In the TrueNAS VM take the drives that were mounted directly to it and setup your array and pool(s) to your preference.
Now, I'd say you have two paths from this point:
OR
Either option has pros and cons. Doing everything inside TrueNAS will be a bit more simple, but you do complicate your TrueNAS setup and you're at the mercy of how TrueNAS manages VMs(backups, restores, etc.). On the reverse with Proxmox, setting up the vmbridge and doing the network mounts is more work initially, but keeping the arr stack in a Proxmox VM/container lets you do direct snapshots and backups of the arr stack, and if you ever need to rebuild it or change it to another arr style set of tools then you can blow away the Proxmox VM and start fresh and resetup the network mounts.
Or don't do any of the above and just install TrueNAS on the box directly as the baremetal OS and do everything inside TrueNAS.
0 bytes free is a broken environment. So that requires a fix during moratorium IMO.
Mint 21 still has support until 2027, so not exactly needed...but I get it when you only see certain family members during specific times of the year.
I'm just saying doing a full migration from ESXI to Proxmox and having to backup all VMs and import them or recreate and doing this during the holidays...I'd rather just sit on the couch and enjoy family time than be stuck in my garage or glued to my laptop.
Upgrading a family member's laptop while shooting the shit with everyone while drinking a beer or something is just fine. Don't need 100% focus, you're good there man.
At work we have a nearly 2 week moratorium that covers Christmas and New Years. We do zero changes unless something breaks on its own. So everyone can take time off without worrying too much.
So I do the same for my homelab. I'll spin up new stuff for fun(new docker containers to try out new apps), but I don't touch my stable stuff. No reboots, no updates, no image pulls, nothing.
That's why I have a reverse osmosis system and use it to refill my plastic arrowhead bottles!
Conflating 1% of Linux users also being 1% of revenue is pretty asinine lol
The regular average joe isn't going to switch on their own. The average person sees Windows and MacBook as their two options for a laptop.
Also, Linux isn't a replacement for Windows. It's its own thing, with its own issues but also advantages.
And most young people don't have their own computers growing up anymore, it's all phones and tablets and in the USA apple has won that race.
Same, had it on during daily chores, listened to it while mowing the lawn, and if work was slow I'd have it on a tablet off to the side with my headphones(boss didn't care).
That was back in 2019, haven't used it since.
