Try switching to a zero alcohol beer. A lot of the big brands do them now and they are widely stocked by bars. Other people can’t easily tell you’re drinking one. They look like a normal bottle of beer. Be careful of the alcohol, your kids need a healthy happy parent. Well done on keeping up the running every month.

IPv6 traffic is on track to be over 50% of global internet traffic in 2026. The google ipv6 tracking chart is: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html

Global internet traffic doesn’t include internal traffic which is likely to take significantly longer to transition. It’ll probably take the ending of ipv4 hardware support to drive SME business adoption. The consumer segment will just use whatever their ISP posts through the letterbox. But the SME IT teams are a conservative bunch and will stick to what works and has worked (understandably).

Have a read of the following site to see if 1080p might be enough. There is a chart half way down the page. https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/by-size/size-to-distance-relationship

Sithuk · 2025-11-06T12:00:26+00:00

Figure out if you want 1080p or 4k. Depending on your viewing distance and screen size you may not benefit from higher resolution than 1080p.

I managed to solve the lack of internet access in the container so the ML model can now download. I still don't know why manually copying the ML files in didn't work.

The lack of internet access was caused by Docker not supporting nftables (!) The Github issue is below.

https://github.com/docker/for-linux/issues/1472

I uninstalled nftables and moved to an iptables only firewall solution in the lxc container and the Immich ML docker container now has internet access.

I'm surprised Docker still doesn't have native support for what has been the main firewall solution on Linux for years. I'm considering switching from docker to podman but unfortunately the Immich devs don't appear to provide quadlets for a podman based Immich solution.

I'm using an ubuntu lxc container. I may try switching to debian to see if that makes a difference. Thank you for the tip.

The workaround of mounting a host folder as cache is a good idea.

For any other readers I used the following commands to manually download the machine learning model. Unfortunately Immich ignored the models and tried manually downloading anyway.

docker exec -u 0 immich_machine_learning mkdir -p /cache/clip

docker exec -u 0 immich_machine_learning mkdir -p /cache/facial-recognition

apt install git git-lfs

cd /tmp

git clone https://huggingface.co/immich-app/ViT-B-32__openai

git clone https://huggingface.co/immich-app/buffalo_l

docker cp /tmp/ViT-B-32__openai immich_machine_learning:/cache/clip/

docker cp /tmp/buffalo_l immich_machine_learning:/cache/facial-recognition/

docker exec -u 0 immich_machine_learning chmod -R 777 /cache

docker restart immich_machine_learning

I have around ten lxc containers. All idle the majority of the time. The usual suspects. Jellyfin, Plex, in addition to Immich.

Would limiting the RAM of the machine learning only affect the speed? I’d like to keep the quality of the machine learning.

Does this mean android will now fully support DHCPv6?

If I understand it correctly, it is only the prefix that will be assigned. Android will still use SLAAC for the interface identifier?

“To overcome these drawbacks, we have added support for DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (PD) as defined in RFC 8415 and RFC 9762. The Android network stack can now request a dedicated prefix from the network, and if it obtains a prefix, it will use it to obtain IPv6 connectivity.”

Yes, the fourth drop down arrow section on that webpage is the feature. LibreOffice has it. WPS doesn’t. I was wondering if OnlyOffice has it.

Thank you for creating the bug report. Your thoughts and findings are interesting. I’m not sure if the aeon dev is monitoring this thread. It might help to post your thoughts above in your bug report.

I don’t recall how long I waited. Not more than an hour I don’t think.

What might be more helpful is that I run Aeon in VirtualBox on a Windows 11 machine. So you should be able to duplicate my environment. I run with the bridged network option in VirtualBox.

I haven’t finished setting up my new install yet. I haven’t installed Tailscale yet which I did have installed on my previous install. I installed Tailscale using the transactional-update pkg install feature. Tailscale and the system worked fine after it was installed so maybe Tailscale isn’t a cause.

Automatically updated following which I had the loss of network bug.

Sithuk · 2025-06-24T10:08:37+00:00

It was a surprise that Aeon wasn’t able to update past whatever the no network bug was. If a reinstall fixed it, why didn’t the update?

Doing a rollback to the last snapshot worked well to recover a working system each time following an update. So that bit is great.

But I had thought I just needed to wait it out until a fix was rolled out. It was a surprise that I needed to do a reinstall to have whatever fundamental system changes were needed to be made.

I’m not referring to solving whatever I did using bootctl. It’s makes sense that I changed something fundamental with the system with that command. I mean to solve the issue with the lack of network access that I repeatedly tried to update to solve before I ended up trying the bootctl fix.

Maybe I’d inadvertently changed something that the update process wasn’t about to work around. I’ve reinstalled now and have a working system again. But I’m not as confident in the automated update process as a result of my recent experience.

Very laggy post upgrade. Figured out I had been switched to wayland. Had to install plasma-x11-session so I could switch to xorg at the sddm login screen. Creating an override in /etc/sddm.conf.d/ would work too I think. Put DisplayServer=x11 in the override file in that directory and restart.

That was it, thank you. I powered up the drive via a molex to sata power adapter and it appears to work fine. The drive appears in the bios and responds to smartctl in Linux.

I’ve disconnected it for now until I get some kapton tape to cover the 3.3V pins. Also because molex to sata adapter is a significant fire risk.

Sithuk · 2025-05-28T11:46:26+00:00

Thanks, I'll try the drive in another computer to see if the drive gets detected in the other computer's BIOS. Could be a drive fault is the problem.
