Sweet, just tried using the LibRedirect Firefox plugin to redirect search to these instances and it worked!

Ubuntu started and stayed great for many years. Now I feel it’s coasting on the name it rightly earned. It was my daily driver but I left after frustration with firefox snap and some networking malarkey I don’t care to recall. There are just better maintained distros out there.

Agreed. I would also reconsider ditching the ISP router. You can still connect your gateway to it, and having the ISP device on premises can mean they might not blame your equipment for a line issue.

Box looking very kunftable

Is there a phone number I can call to check if I am?

How do you tell whether you’re looking at a radio-controlled clock though?

Also, just because they’re useful doesn’t make them necessary.

Watches that can get alerts can show digital time. So, chalk another point up for not learning analog time.

Learning how a sundial works would teach them more than leaning how an analog clock works, in that regard.

Chip = Fry <> Crisp = Chip

Then wash your hands

Some of us also are just tired of administering the system and just want to use some applications.

Also needs mentioning: clustering. I have a years old cluster with none of the hardware I originally started with, but my Pi-hole is still there. Having the ability to migrate guests between hosts is a game changer when you frequently replace or rebuild said hosts. With the right setup, migration can have as little as a few seconds of downtime, or even no downtime at all. You can’t do that with bare metal installs.

Can a container output video to a display? I have a container I remote into with GNOME on it, but would like to log into a console if possible.

I highly recommend the same. Fedora on one, Windows on one, and a shared NTFS drive. There are a couple of Windows ‘features’ to disable, like fast boot, that don’t play nice with the storage drive.

I haven’t got GNOME’s native RDP to work at all yet, but XRDP does multiple sessions.

Doesn’t give you any security? Please elaborate.

They were right, it’s metastasising now

Indeed, it’s worth explicitly checking every drive you buy if you are using it in a NAS.

SMR is a relatively new disk format technology that makes drives cheaper but writes slower, which can be noticeably bad in a NAS, especially if you are using a write-intensive RAID type. Most disk manufacturers will have drives meant for NAS like WD Red or Seagate Ironwolf, and they are almost all CMR and not SMR.
