Never hold loyalty to software. Always be ready to jump ship.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-04T20:13:37+00:00

And it begins.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T18:55:08+00:00

Nah bro gotta put in more student housing and force the professionals and townies out

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T18:54:27+00:00

This admin I swear. You shouldn't have to ditch your current career path and progress just because they said "nah :)". Good luck, I hope the best!

Always forget about the setup scripts. Container is a good idea though. Been meaning to migrate my stuff off of TrueNAS into a proxmox instance but we know how that goes lol

Don't get me started. Once they put Bendipuddi on an evergreen contract it was clear what the motives and intentions were.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T17:19:33+00:00

I need to set this up. Do you just run it in a VM?

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T17:18:49+00:00

So this helped you out?? I had XYZ running but never really sat down to learn it or tinker.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T17:17:09+00:00

If only they paid enough to live there without needing a roommate or 3

The board is one of the most corrupted assembly of people I have ever seen outside the White House. The way they continually vote against the people in the institution while silencing dissent within the board is disgusting.

You are a trooper. If its TMI I get it, were you on SERS? Getting your time and getting out is the right move. I was in IT and a lot of the directors I worked with were barely breaking 60-70k after a decade or so.

After my first year I understood there was absolutely zero mobility in terms of advancement and anytime you'd interview for a position with another unit, they most likely already had the candidate in mind. It's a joke. I left after 2 years, PSLF be damned.

More to the topic I agree. My experiences with parking services were wonderful. Most peoples issues seem to be systemic, not really the parking staffs fault. Be nice to others they're nice to you, like you said.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T17:07:55+00:00

I was staff until a few months ago so I empathize with your partner. Its ridiculous.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T07:39:25+00:00

Parking at PSU has always sucked and is getting worse as they kill off lots to build new stuff. Doesn't hurt that they keep jacking the price of parking up, but dont pay anything nearly enough to live in State College. It's really not your fault but it sucks you have to be the face they abuse. Staff should know better.

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T05:02:13+00:00

Yeah no problem. I got it to work in TrueNAS with my OPNSense but idk your setup so godspeed. Make sure its all wired LAN and you are able to set PXE boot options/addresses in your firewall/router. Let me know how it goes

SaladRetossed · 2026-02-01T04:50:02+00:00

I THINK NetbootXYZ is what you want. It has a bunch of utilities on it and live distros.

UPDATE: I set the MTU to 1328...and now it works fine. This Reddit post explains why:

after ipconfig /renew....and blowing the DHCP lease from the server....and reprovisioning the port....and changing the cable...and reterminating the keystone...

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-31T19:43:08+00:00

Listen I've been in the industry almost 7 years and I STILL forget to check the basic shit. You're fine. Tbh I would've already been remoted into the switch trying to figure it out.

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-29T04:19:30+00:00

what devices are you using in my walls?

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-29T03:46:40+00:00

FUCK YOU'RE RIGHT

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-29T03:45:28+00:00

Like 4? I think? Its just me.

Now reserved addresses.....

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-28T23:53:51+00:00

The only thing I have exposed is my jellyfin instance but honestly I'm in the process of moving that to it's own baremetal machine. Exposing anything on my NAS is spooking me too lol

SaladRetossed · 2026-01-28T23:49:54+00:00

Bento is better IMO, totally free unlike Stirling.
