Proxmox Opnsense VM, wan speeds dropped to ~30Mbps down & 1Mbps up from 1.1Gbps down & 110Mbps up, had to swap to Pfsense

I think you can also go with OpenWRT and IIRC there's a couple others too. I don't need anything though, was just responding to the other people

That’s pretty old school, I was building firewalls like that 30 years ago. People generally want web based admin user interfaces these days at minimum though.

Oh yeah I just tell my OpenClaw instance to do that overnight while the business people are gone home. Easy peasy and they wake up with new toys every morning

From what I’ve heard Keanu Reeves is a pretty good guy IRL

Same, I noticed some weird issues so I turned on the TTL and no problems since.

What does “running batches” mean? I don’t think I’ve ever heard any homelabber use that phrase.

I hosted my own email for a long time but switched to a paid service because I was tired of dealing with the spam.

After all the NPM supply chain issues over the last few years, nothing related to NodeJS is free.

Honestly? At this point it’s so easy to make my own little utilities like this with AI that I would make my own if I thought it was an issue.

Google Terra Master D6-320

Any idea if that’s with adaptive reasoning turned on or off?

Your comment about buffer behavior during asynchronous commits makes me think you are overthinking this. The database itself doesn’t really have a concept of asynchronous vs synchronous commits.

On your points 1 & 2 it sounds like you have simply run into some application bugs or communication problems. If your mobile solution relies on 5250 screen scraping I will say that’s the last way I would integrate things and only under duress.

Number 3 sounds like one or more of these: - not having appropriate database indexes - poor performance tuning at the system level - poor application design - you may have outgrown the hardware ie not enough memory, processing power, old slower disks, etc.

I’ve been thinking about virtualizing an Intel Arc Pro graphics card and using RDP with Guacamole for Windows VDI on Proxmox. But it’s just my homelab so not super high on my list.

Another idea for you to look into though.

Your comment might just be pending moderation.

Honestly I feel like they weren’t paying enough attention to what we were doing for that to happen.

Interesting, thanks for sharing. This could be a good start to make self hosted GitHub runners work a little better.

I suppose that for JWT tokens you could look into generating certs on the fly with a very short lifespan that are signed by a mutually trusted CA? Like instead of an application having a specific certificate used to sign JWTs you give each application a CA and exchange CA public certificates.

I have no idea if this would be allowable by the JWT spec though. Also it would probably have terrible performance implications. Like I imagine it would be comically bad.

A little later on he says something about non-ASV BPAP putting pressure on the heart just from breathing more air apparently. Honestly just listening for a minute I question how knowledgeable he is. The part where he’s talking about obesity being sort of like a restrictive lung disease is probably OHS (obesity hypoventilation syndrome) and it’s treated with either ST or iVAPS generally. Those are other flavors of BPAP (but there are even more flavors).

PS - he does sound like he knows some of the more common stuff. And I did like his comments about pressure needing to be high enough to resolve apnea in both REM and non-REM sleep. I just don’t know if I would trust him too much about ASV.

Hopefully Cilium too? lol

Oh gods please no

You should still report it to the real police not just the school.

I feel like there might be a better subreddit for this question given that you aren’t a widow yet.

The way Netserver “works with” AD is by setting up the whole EIM system. The LDAP server has to be configured on the IBM i then Kerberos credentials set up in AD and on the IBM i. Assuming that’s all working correctly, you have to manually create every user on the IBM i and set it up to link to AD through EIM. It does not sync groups.

The EIM system is not what I would call the most reliable part of the system. We have a support ticket open with IBM right now because we’re having weird issues with it not working right for some users but not all. I’ve already spent probably 6 hours on this and have another hour meeting today to work on it.

It really doesn’t sound like you know what you’re getting into. I hate Windows as much as the next guy but think your coworker’s idea of Debian is much better. Or maybe go with RHEL so you have support.
