I run proxmox, and proxmox backup server in a vm. PBS backup is encrypted locally, and I upload the backup to backblaze b2 using rclone in a cron job. I store the decryption key elsewhere

It has worked ok for me. I also upload a heartbeat file, it is just a empty file with todays date (touch heartbeat), so that I can easily check when the last upload happened

When I have used nfs in the past, i have issues with different user ID. What is the best solution these days?

After becoming a father last year, the time I have for tinkering is close to 0. I found it easiest to keep all the data in the same vm / lxc, pretty straight forward to maintain

I tried that too for a time, using samba. But databases didn't work from a share. I just found it easier in the end to have volumes inside the LXC / VM directly

I'm using smtp gotify , been using it for a while now and it seems OK for alerts and outer features

I used to use LXC, and switched to VM since internet said it was better.

I kinda miss the LXC setup. Day to day I don't notice any difference, but increasing storage space in VM was a small pain compared to LXC. In VM I increased disk size through proxmox, but then I had to increase the partition inside VM.

In LXC you can just increase disk size and it immediately is available to the containers

I use it too. I am too old to tinker with my OS, Bluefin has some nice defaults and stuff just works (mostly)

Have you considered gollum https://github.com/gollum/gollum ?

A simple, Git-powered wiki with a local frontend and support for many kinds of markup and content.

I used it a long time ago, but then I wanted to try the next shiny note taking app..

I set up a server with all my stuff on, and use syncthing for syncing my files, and self hosting for services. I mostly use vanilla configs for apps, and prefer distros with good defaults.

Some time ago I switched to Bluefin, and stopped distro-hopping 😅

I also use miniflux, have used it for more than a year and I have not looked for alternatives, which is good sign.

I use Flux News on android to consume my feeds. https://github.com/KevinCFechtel/FluxNews

I agree. I learned and used emacs and org mode for several years. With age, I now want simpler tools that do not need extensive configuration. Using mainly Spyder and VS Code for python coding

Me too. I use uptime kuma to send the api request. then I also get uptime status 🙂

Yes it is correct. TLDR; threads run one code at the time, but can access same data. processes is like running python many times, and can run code simultaneously, but sharing data is cumbersome.

If you use multiple threads, they all run on the same python instance, and they can share memory (i.e. objects/variables can be shared). Because of GIL (explained by other comment), the threads cannot run at the same time. This is OK if you are IO bound, but not CPU bound

If you use multiprocessing, it is like running python (from terminal) multiple times. There is no shared memory, and you have a large overhead since you have to start up python many times. But if you have large calculations you can do in parallell that takes long time, it will be much faster than threads as it can use all cpu cores.

If these processes need to share data, it is more complicated. You need to use special functions to share data, like queues and pipes. If you need to share many MB of data, this takes a lot of time in my experience (10s of milliseconds).

If you need to do large calculations, using numpy functions or numba may be faster than multiple processes, due to good optimizations. But if you need to crunch a lot of data, multiprocessing is usually the way to go

Miniflux + News App (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I started using miniflux a while back, and enjoy it. Recently I also gave News app on F-droid a try, and the combination of the two is one of the best news reading experiences I've had.

Miniflux: https://miniflux.app/

News app: https://github.com/bubelov/news

Just wanted to share!

EDIT: Based on comment from @[email protected] , I am now mostly using Flux News https://github.com/KevinCFechtel/FluxNews . But I could go either way

I run my containers in an LCX on Proxmox (yes I heard I should use a VM, but it works..)

For data storage (syncthing, jellyfin ..) I make volumes in the LXC. But I was wondering if this is the best way?

I started thinking about restoring backups. The docker backups can get quite large with all the user data. I was wondering if a separate "NAS" VM and NFS shares makes more sense. Then restoring/cloning docker lxc would be faster, for troubleshooting. And the user data I could restore separately.

What do you guys do?

 

In the of all web pages I've checked so far there is always a line <link href="data:text/css,%5Bid*%3D'google_ads_iframe'%5D%2C%5Bid*%3D'taboola-'%5D%2C.taboolaHeight%2C.taboola-placeholder%2C%23credential_picker_container%2C%23credentials-picker-container%2C%23credential_picker_iframe%2C%5Bid*%3D'google-one-tap-iframe'%5D%2C%23google-one-tap-popup-container%2C.google-one-tap-modal-div%7Bdisplay%3Anone!important%3Bmin-height%3A0!important%3Bheight%3A0!important%3B%7D" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

Does anyone know what it means? I tried to open a page in edge, and I do not see it there.

I am running mozilla-flatpak, version 115 on Fedora

 

I use Fedora on a laptop with touchscreen.

Some months ago, I could pinch to zoom on the screen (and on touchpad?). But now, touching the screen only marks the text.

Does anyone know what happened, and how to enable pinch to zoom in firefox? I think it may have happened after updating to newest Fedora version 38. I use Gnome DE with wayland enabled.
