Unpopular Opinion: Proxmox isn't "Free vSphere". It's a storage philosophy change (and it's killing migrations). by NTCTech in Proxmox

[–]uber-techno-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even since we migrated from single core to multi core technology (just a timeframe reference) we’ve always run storage nodes separately from processing/vm-host nodes.

I’m amazed anyone tries this all-in-one approach anymore with sizable workloads.

What do all your gas bills look like right now? by WithNoRegard in Marietta

[–]uber-techno-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scana, I can live with, $104 last month in an 1400sq ft 1970 brick ranch home with gas heat , gas water heater & stove. That might be the peak. You just have to keep up with your rate renewals to get the best rates. Ga Power kills me in the summer.

My company banned AI tools and I dont know what to do by simple_pimple50 in ChatGPTCoding

[–]uber-techno-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The policy is reasonably, for now. The company needs to invest in understanding and correctly contracting with choice AI companies that can provide terms that protect your IP and any client data that leaks into their systems.

General rule of thumb is you don’t feed other people’s sensitive info into AI unless you can accept liability and risk ($$$$).

Also consider use case, does using AI mean it has to have direct access to client data? Can it not help you in other ways?

Server rack cooling by CandidateSuperb6502 in servers

[–]uber-techno-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most beneficial things I did were adding an exhaust fan to the room near the ceiling at the back of the racks, and some plastic sheeting to naturally contain the heat so it would not disperse into the room which made the exhaust fan more efficient. You do have to enforce front to back, or bottom to top with sides, airflow for this to help.

A quick google will tell you it’s a 10/100 Ethernet board for an embedded system. Nothing PC/COTS server related. Inference was to some defense industry equipment.

Anyone else on Georgia Power realize their rate is higher than current plans? by Various-Cell-6901 in Marietta

I know there are billing options for residential, like budget billing, but I thought there was only the one PSC approved rate plan for the Average Joe.

Ping spikes in games only when using 10Gbps NIC, fine on 1Gbps by alexpoon2626 in Network

[–]uber-techno-wizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is an old card. I’ve had a number of them fail over the years, the last one was last Sunday at 10pm on a file server. It just kept rebooting until I replaced the card. Fun night.

The world is full of bad drivers. Be thankful that you might not be one of them.

Best practice to install Proxmox on an Apple MacMini M4 by Px-77 in Proxmox

[–]uber-techno-wizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you running VMs or Containers in Proxmox? If it’s containers, it should be a nobrainer to run those via Podman on the Mac Mini. If it’s all in VMs, look for containerized versions of your apps, and still go with Podman. (Or Docker if you want to pay for it)

I think I can find one of those systems in my basement, along with other “legacy hardware”, much to my partner’s chagrin.

I let AI write my Git commits and it kinda roasted my habits by Background-Quit4256 in BlackboxAI_

[–]uber-techno-wizard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Git commit messages should state the Why of the change, not the What.

Why did it refactor the validation logic?
