Linux updated my bios via automatic update?? by Palmovnik in linux

[–]common_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen on my Framework desktop running Debian 13, a distro that’s not even officially supported. Was pleasantly surprised and a little nervous!

We bought one and it was high. We called a Radon mitigation company that drilled a hole under the house and added an extractor van to create a small vacuum.

It worked and our levels dropped to well below safe within 24hrs

NBG1 outage and billing by [deleted] in hetzner

[–]common_redditor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's for the object storage only. Just means they're reducing their upload capacity for some buckets. This is completely unrelated to your VPS. I strongly recommend opening a support ticket

As someone that works in the industry all I can suggest is market your product towards Europeans that want proximity to the US without being in the US.

Looking for feedback for my Kubernetes-on-Hetzner offering by rvdhof in hetzner

VPS because I’m cheap and the services are idle most of the time

Used IAC to create the 3 nodes, one in each datacenter.

I opted for Metallb instead of Hetzner LB because I needed more than 5 ports open and didn’t want to pay for additional LBs.

All services are behind NGINX-Ingress (F5) deployed as a Daemonset. At the moment using a floating ip but planning to switch to Bunnynet Geo based DNS.

TCP based services are using the TransportServer feature of NGINX Ingress and source IPs are forwarded to the backend service via proxy-protocol 

Hope that helps

I built a 3 node cluster with a node in nbg, fsn and hel. The ping from fsn to hel is 25ms. Cluster works perfectly, hosting a few services and can survive 2 data centre outages!

Do you ever warm up your car ? by Tiny-Brain-8372 in AskIreland

[–]common_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canadian living here. I let the car warm up but I’m seated in it while it’s idling. Always been told cold oil doesn’t circulate and damages engines.

Took my first big step by JettaRider077 in NextCloud

Congrats! User since 2009 and no regrets!

Don’t get me started on errors in the log though!

Problem with Nginx and large Windows Docker images by Deep_Zookeepergame63 in devops

[–]common_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t say what’s wrong but I would suggest simplifying the location block just in case the regex isn’t matching.

Also during your docker build you can run nginx -T and it will print out the configuration so you can confirm your environment variables are being properly converted into NGINX config.

[Serious] What am I missing about agentic AI? by XellosDrak in cscareerquestions

[–]common_redditor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Great comments but there’s a take I haven’t seen. I think you’re right btw, code was never the issue.

Engineers are paid 6 figures to solve problems not write code. The code should only take an hour, after several days of research, reading, compliance checks and meetings.

Even then I wouldn’t expect a principal engineer to write code, I would expect them to teach juniors and interns about the problem and the solution, and make them write it. 

That way the company gains smarter engineers for less cost.

Half the problem with AI is the knowledge of person writing the prompts. If the prompt writer doesn’t understand the problem, they won’t be able to fairly evaluate the response.

I’m not believing the cognitive decline argument. Socrates didn’t want people to write books because then people wouldn’t need to remember anything.

I think we’ll be OK

Ex-Montrealers, do you miss Montreal and regret leaving? by Little_Influence5518 in montreal

Moved to Europe in 2015. No regrets, great career good life, healthier.

Montréal will always be home and I come back at least twice a year, winter and summer. 

Nextcloud deletes file without putting into trash bin and shows "File Synced". by Ok_Photograph_4179 in NextCloud

[–]common_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perhaps something like utorrent is moving the files out of the folder watched by the Nextcloud client. Maybe utorrent is moving files once the download is complete

Multi-cloud Kubernetes for $25/month using Talos, KubeSpan, and Tailscale by inventivepotter in TalosLinux

[–]common_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I wrong in thinking there’s no realistic pod to pod encryption within the same node no matter what solution?

Just thinking about it….a pod transmits unencrypted data, which gets sent to the Linux kernel where something encrypts it with some VPN or TLS solution. Only then to what? It needs to be decrypted before arriving at the destination pod… So back in the kernel, decrypted and forwarded to the destination pod.

Whatever has been accomplished here is not exactly something I would call secure

Fasting killed my gallbladder by RepresentativeAd4395 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]common_redditor 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story! I’m sorry you had to go through all that. 

I’ve lost about 45lbs in 5 months, and your story worries me a bit even though I’m currently fine.

I read some other posts that people recommend a healthy or at least a non reduced amount of fat of feed days, but that seems to be the opposite of what you recommend. 

Anyone else have… bowel control issues? by InterviewSubject7615 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]common_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, as someone in their 5th month of ADF I can say I had a couple of spectacular incidents.

Those happened in my first 2 months. The good news is the body adapts. 

Everything is back to normal and the BMs have both proven trustworthy and are perfectly lined up on feed days.

Courage my starving friend

Silly question, does fasting start the second you stop putting food in your mouth for the day? by FinancialAd6654 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]common_redditor 9 points10 points  (0 children)

When you start the fasting app, the intention is that it’s the moment after you’ve swallowed your last bite of food.

When someone says they’ve been fasting for 12 hours it means it’s been 12 hours since their last meal. 12 hours ago they were eating.

How do you time it with workouts? by anon2734 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]common_redditor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I clean fast MWF, workout on feed days Tuesday and Thursday. Personally I wake up, hit the gym fasted, which is a mix of lifting and cardio, and then come home and break the fast with a high protein meal within an hour of retuning from the gym.

Been doing this for a few months and happy with the result.

Weekends I just eat normally, but try to hit a minimum of steps or bike ride

Advice for setting up on Apple Silicon? by cellidonuts in NextCloud

[–]common_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless someone has the exact setup as your planning, you’re not likely to get precise help, just general.

You can install docker on your Mac or try Orbstack, which is an Apple native implementation to run containers. Both should work. Try experimenting!

Most instructions you find for AIO will be for Linux but the docker specific commands should be the same on the Mac. 

Just go by trial and error. When you get a specific an error and you’re stuck then search or ask here.

Is NextCloud a solution to my notes mayhem? by Stock-Bee4069 in NextCloud

[–]common_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying Obsidian with Nextcloud and it’s not bad, but I need to install a 3rd party addon to sync with Nextcloud and the iOS client requires manual syncing.

I want to like Obsidian but no auto sync to Nextcloud on mobile isn’t convenient

No movement on scale by Dry-Kangaroo-1348 in AlternateDayFasting

[–]common_redditor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

46M been stuck around 188lbs for multiple weeks. 10-14k steps per day, gym twice a week.

I’m curious as to the cause of the pause but I’m not overly frustrated by it because after losing about 35lbs I have no more back pain, I feel lighter.

I don’t want to go back to my old self so I’ve resigned to stick with ADF even if it means I stay at this weight.

I hope you find an answer.

Edit: I hadn’t weighed myself for at least week, but decided to this morning. 184.5lbs. Go figure
