beerclue , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in What passport to use traveling to USA with two citizenships?

You never filed for tax return in 18 years - in Germany? Mate, I get back about 1500-2000€ every year, do it.

beerclue , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in Can I filter non-English posts or communities?

I don't really look/care for German content :)

beerclue , 3 months ago to Asklemmy in Can I filter non-English posts or communities?

I'm in Germany and I barely see any German posts... Must be something from either your user or app settings.

Why don't you try NFS? For me it's a lot easier to set up...

beerclue , 3 months ago to Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System in New CI, New Repo, A Renewed Push for 10.9.0

I hope I can move from nightly directly to the RCs, the freeze versions.

I had the bad idea of trying out 10.9 nightly, and I couldn't go back to 10.8, so I have to live with the bugs and incompatible plugins :(

Every two years. That's how I get a new phone for free...

beerclue , 4 months ago to cats in How true does this ring?

Because chicken bones are small, and when they break, they tend to splinter, and the sharp edges can cause damage.

Having said that, my grandma's cats in the countryside have been living eating raw chicken scraps, leftover human food, and chicken bones. They have never been to the vet and never tasted canned cat food. They're fine.

Depends on your needs. I have a couple LXDs that only need 512MB each... But I did upgrade mine to 16GB.

beerclue , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Good mini PC for around 100€

Yeah, one of the USFF or whatever they call them.

beerclue , 4 months ago to Selfhosted in Good mini PC for around 100€

I got an HP ProDesk 400 G2 with an i5 6500T, 8GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD for 99€. Works beautifully, and while it's not as efficient as a raspberry pi, it idles around 6-7w and can run a bunch of VMs with Proxmox.

beerclue , 4 months ago to homelab in Recommend me a mini PC for a Proxmox homelab

I got a few HP Elitedesk/Prodesk computers. One with an i5 9500T for ~200€, a couple with i5 6500t for about 100€ each (one small factor, the other a bit larger, with a PCI slot for a GPU). Not the most recent or powerful, but more than Enough for a homelab with a handful of VMs. Power consumption sits around 36-50w for the 3 machines, a small dlink switch and a Synology NAS with 4 drives.

beerclue , 5 months ago to Linux in Linux in the corporate space

At my current job, our department (DevOps), uses Linux (arch). A couple of devs too (Ubuntu), the rest use a mix of Macs and Windows. The Online versions of Office work just fine, there is Teams, Azure login and even Intune for Linux now.

At my previous job, most of the company used Windows, but the devs were using 90% Linux (Ubuntu), some of them with 2 machines (laptop and workstation with GPU, point cloud stuff). Ah, the good ole days of Ubuntu 16 and Nvidia drivers 🥲

The job before that, a very small company, mostly devs, we were using half Windows, half Linux (mint).

This is Germany btw.

beerclue OP , 6 months ago to datahoarder in The road has been paved

It's a data maintenance feature that amends data in storage pools that are incorrect or incomplete. It works on BTRFS volumes or RAID 5/6 storage pools. It's scheduled to run monthly on my NAS. I guess it started now as I upgraded my drives from 4x4TB to 4x18TB.
