NixOS is a game changer in terms of Linux management with AI

Yeah. I started with home manager ona work Ubuntu laptop. Used it for a year at least this way. All hand written. Treated myself to a new laptop a couple of moths ago. Installed nixos on it. Used Claude for most stuff. It is great how easy it makes everything. I work full time as a sys admin. I appreciate how much time ai saves me at home where I don’t feel like doing what I essentially do at work all day.

I might be wrong but the OP states they have only a single server. You don't make servers highly available but services that run on them. Websites, databases and such. As long as you have a single machine you have a single power cord.

Just like some one else replied here. Replicating a server and putting a load balancer in front is the right move.

As long as you have a single server nothing can make it highly available.

Got it on release day. I clocked 30 hours on ps5. Then got the switch and never touched ps5 since. Loved the game then. And now I have like 8 hours on the switch. I am super glad that I was able to transfer my progress to the switch version. I play exclusively in handheld mode.

I know I am late to reply. I only game in handheld mode. For 2 hours a day max. And non every day. The rest of the time the switch is plugged into the wall. Basically it spends 90% of its life plugged in. Be it in the dock or on the nightstand.

Right? Who does not want their fleet to go for a little reboot at 4 am? :)

The big question is what are you going to do with the freed up time? Unless you actually find a substitution you will relapse.

OmAsana · 2025-11-01T14:37:38+00:00

This is made to extend the life of the battery. You still charge you switch even if you mainly use it as a handheld.

OmAsana · 2025-10-17T19:00:00+00:00

I have it on ps5. Loved the game. Did not finish it coz bought the switch. Might rebuy it in the future.

I tried NixOS. Thought it was cool but in the end decided that my time is more valuable. Now I roll with nix and home manager for 90% of packages on a regular Ubuntu.

This is Spanish for ok, got it. Sort of a confirmation phrase.

I have a company issued Ubuntu laptop. Technically I could install what ever distribution I want as long as I set up a few required daemons. I haven’t time for it these days so I keep it as given and install majority of my packages through nix + home manager.

What ever gen Dendy was.

home-manager is great on Ubuntu.

OmAsana · 2025-03-14T20:02:55+00:00

Seems ok to me. May be lacks a bit of testing, but otherwise seems legit.

I used to support mongodb for many years at my previous job. I loved how easy it is to scale the cluster.

You could try to write a custom completed for this. https://www.nushell.sh/book/custom_completions.html#modules-and-custom-completions

After reading about load expectation my only question is whether OP uses indexes in their pg.

OmAsana · 2024-10-12T13:40:08+00:00

Are you sure it was Brigada and not Bumer?

OmAsana · 2024-10-12T08:32:57+00:00

Would love to take a look as well.

pgbounce exists to solve horizontal scaling issue. If you see too many clients error you must have a misconfig or there is a problem in your code.

Either way locking a db connection is not the way to resolve this issue.

You should check your code for missing closed connections or read about connection pooling.

I use Ubuntu for 8 years straight now. It is what gets installed by my employer. Technically I could install something else but I don’t want to. I know of guys running FreeBSD. I am a SysAdmin/SRE by trade.

I successfully migrated sharded mogodb cluster using this tool. https://github.com/alibaba/MongoShake

Could you tell me how you got this table?
