I don’t understand - you want a layer to hide database internals but also a web app that “is only the db itself”?

At least for some android phones this is already possible with Lineage OS.

NUCs make really nice homelab servers. They can give you a lot of power while not sucking too much electricity. I have used three NUCs to build a kubernetes cluster and I’m very happy with them.

The only thing that made me buy additional hardware was the need for 10Gb Networking and more internal storage, which I couldn’t realize with my NUCs. I also learned to love the IPMI feature of server motherboards, that NUCs don’t offer afaik. I would recommend to use a hypervisor like proxmox which makes it easy to spin up new servers inside virtual machines - this way you don’t have to re-install your OS on the NUC everytime something goes wrong or needs to be upgraded.

Generally a NUC is a great device for a homelab, especially if you’re just starting out!

Since you’re also located in germany, I’d like to share a site I found when I was looking for my own router based on OPNsense: NRG Systems. Some of their models use pretty old hardware, but I got the IPU651 with the 19" chassis and I really love it.

Use something like pgAdmin, DBeaver or the pg cli to connect to your postgres instance. Then run the command from the changelog as a SQL query.

First offense, 72 hour unpaid leave. And better hope there’s no complaints because not wearing it is reasonable suspicion.

Second offense? Goodbye.

That’s the key. You can do a lot with technology, but many problems are not solvable with technology alone.

It does not matter how safe or reliable bodycams work if there are no repercussions for not wearing or disabling them. But since american cops are not even held accountable if they straight up murder people, nobody should be surprised that bodycams “don’t work” in a system like this.

You can get a quick overview via DSM, I think in the Disk Manager. For more details you could jump into a terminal and use smartctl.

Have you checked the SMART values of your drives? Do they give you a reason for your concerns?

Anyhow, you should never be in a position where you need to worry about drive failure. If the data is important, back it up separatly. If it isn’t, well, don’t sweat it then.

Why would you buy something new if your current solution works and your requirements don’t change? Just keep it.

Also good with Boost once I opened the image and clicked “HD”.

Wasabi S3 is nice and cheap. You’ll only pay what you use, so probably just a few cents in your case.

Oops, nevermind:

If you store less than 1 TB of active storage in your account, you will still be charged for 1 TB of storage based on the pricing associated with the storage region you are using.

I recently upgraded three of my proxmox hosts with SSDs to make use of ceph. While researching I faced the same question - everyone said you need an enterprise SSD, or ceph would eat it alive. The feature that apparently matters the most in my case is Power Loss Protection (PLP). It’s not even primarily needed to protect from an possible outage, but it forces sync writes instead of relying on a cache for performance.

There are some SSDs marketed for usage in data centers, these are generally enterprisey. Often they are classified for “Mixed Use” (read and write) or “Read Intensive”. Other interesting metrics are the Drive Writes Per Day (DWPD) and obviously TBW and IOPS.

At the end I went with used Samsung PM883.

But before you fall into this rabbit hole, you might check if you really need an enterprise SSD. If all you’re doing is running a few vms in a homelab, I would expect consumer SSDs to work just fine.

The fact that the license plates are withheld "cannot be described in any other way than as a unique attack on a company operating in Sweden.”

The fact that Tesla refused to sign a collective agreement cannot be described in any other way than as a unique attack on swedish worker rights.

Get fucked.

The interesting part about this story isn’t Altman himself. It’s more about the weird decisions and inner politics of a $90bn company. A board firing their ceo without official reasoning, MS sweeping in while owning 49% of said company, 95% of the staff threatening to quit and the ceo coming back and firing the board while everybody else still tries to understand what the fuck just happened.

Like another commenter said, this could straight up be an episode of Silicon Valley.

What’s wrong with Portainer?

this has been the hottest summer ever

I hope you enjoyed it, it might have been the coolest summer for the rest of our lives!

Oh no! Anyway…

No, the registrar just registers the domain for you (duh). You can then change the DNS recods for this domain and these records will propagate to other DNS servers all around the world. Your clients will use some of these DNS servers to lookup the IP address of your server and then connect to this IP.

The traffic between your clients and server has nothing to do with your domain registrar.

Proton keeps getting better and better. I long for the day when I can ditch windows completely and it might not be too far away.

You could look into mainboards with IPMI. They give you a web based interface to fully control your server, including power management, shell, sensor readings, etc.

If you’re the team lead, something like this is your job. You could ask your supervisor for guidance, but ultimately you should be able to solve this on your own.

As others have mentioned: Speak to him. Don’t be nice nor mean - be professional. Tell him how his behaviour affects you and the rest of the team. Talk to him about appropriate workplace behaviour and what you want him to change.

Maybe this will work, maybe it doesn’t. How he handles your feedback is up to him, he is an adult, even if he doesn’t act like one.

If he doesn’t change or keeps ignoring you (his boss!), document his behaviour and go the HR route.
