Good to know it works somehow, is it GUI or terminal based you use

I’ve run the instructions from

ProtonVPN.com and a few others https://protonvpn.com/support/official-linux-vpn-mint?srsltid=AfmBOor2Qyy1cfGZfAtcyHMD6mWoj1B72y2eS9vNv0vpcxWRoTPJuyKZ

Hey now, I set all my servers admin passwords to my external IP address. Lean, simple… uh easy to find

Yeah I have a couple of them and 2 poe injectors so I figured I’d try that way

If possible, I want to run it on my jellyfin/DNS server (piefed)

I uploaded the picture… yet it didn’t show on my end

“Containers by design are suppose to be temporary and the runtime data is recreated each time the container is launched. The persistent data is all you should care for.”

So that’s really why they should be good for Jellyfin/File servers, as the data isn’t needing to be stored in container, just the run files. I suppose the config files as well.

When I reverse proxy to my network using wireguard (set up on the jellyfin server, I also think I have a rustdesk server on there) on the other hand, is it worth using a container, or is that just the same either way?

I have shoved way to many things on an old laptop, but I never have to touch it really, and the latest update mint put out actually cured any issues I had. I used to have to reboot once a week or so to get everything back online when it came to my Pihole and shit. Since the latest update I ran in September 4th, I haven’t touched it for anything. Screen just stays closed in a corner of my desk with other shit stacked on top

So let’s say I theoretically wanted to move a docker container to another device or maybe if I were re-installing an OS or moving to another distro, could I in theory drag my local docker container to an external and throw my device in a lake and pull that container off into the new device? If so … what then, I link the startups, or is there a “docker config” where they are all able to be linked and I can tell it which ones to launch on OS launch, User launch, delay or what not?

When you say binaries do you mean locally stored directories kind of like what Lutris or Steam would do for a Windows game. (Create a fake c:\ )

For me it’s lack of understanding usually. I haven’t sat down and really learned what docker is/does. And when I tried to use it once I ended up with errors (thankfully they all seemed contained by the docker) but I just haven’t gotten around to looking more into than seeing suggestions to install say Pihole in it. Pretty sure I installed Pihole outside of one. Jellyfin outside, copyparty outside, and I something else im forgetting at the moment.

I was thinking of installing a chat app in one, but I put off that project because I got busy at work and it’s not something I normally use.

I guess I just haven’t been forced to see the upsides yet. But am always wanting to learn

Not sure what I’ll use this for yet, but I’m going to see if I can host it tonight I guess. Didn’t have anything else planned .

Edit: or not… still looks like you need a paid license at this point

Someone asked me about 15 years ago if I washed my hair or my body first in the shower to which I said body. Then they asked why I wouldn’t want to wash whatever oils/dirt out of my hair first and then work your way down so it doesn’t end up on the parts I just cleaned. There is likely no way it would ever matter, but I’ve washed my hair before my body ever since.

I think about it near every time I shower. Can’t even remember who the person was, or where I was asked at. But I remember that all the time

That’s for the recommendation. That could be useful as well!

Thank you so very much. I needed to transfer some files locally yesterday and didn’t have a NAS set up. So I thought I would quickly set up a samba share on my pop-os media server so my spouse (windows) and I (mint) could swap/store files on the fly in the future. It took me 25 minutes and I almost gave up because my config file was having issues.

This looks sooooo much nicer. May every road rise up to meet you

I’ll have to check local grocery stores, maps showed my closest Korean Grocery store was 59 miles away, haha. I’m sure Kroger or Aldi should have something. I’ve just always bought 5-10lb bags of rice so I never thought about it being quicker some other way. Although when I moved in 2016 I left my rice cooker for a friend, and I never replaced it for some reason, miss that thing

Rice in 2 minutes? This is where I realize maybe I’ve never bought precooked rice before. How can it take so little time though? The water still needs to boil right, or is it a microwave thing?

Yeah, the guy never lived in the U.S. I don’t think.

Last I knew he was finding a job to ensure his family was all good. Hopefully he just threw himself into his work and is stabilizing his family matters. Best of luck to everyone out there doing what they can to get by.

-love some doof you’ll never meet

Yeah, I never used Instagram or Twitter so getting started on Pixelfed or Mastodon seems a bit daughnting for me. But I assume it you like platforms like that, you just search out a few people you enjoy and then add more from their content and others do the same and eventually it’ll all click into what people had in those corporate owned and controlled products.

Yeah, which is how we know that 5 isn’t patched into a machine, (likely goes to patch panel, then through the walls to an office/cubical with no machine connected to that port.)… Often means someone was fired and not replaced, or else the patch would be swapped to another place if they replaced the user and placed them elsewhere.

(Doesn’t have to be that, could be other things of course, like a laptop someone took home, a dead VoIP phone… A disconnected media station, etc)
