tmux and a <ctrl>-<b><d> - done!

I’m not seeing any replies that are super helpful for your question - so here’s what I do: throw a Linux desktop on a Raspberry Pi, or NUC and use the TV like monitor. Get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo and watch Plex through the appimage or just Firefox. Bonus, now any website that does video can be viewed on your big screen tv without dealing with any casting apps.

This is the correct answer. Private IPs are less concerning (on noes now someone knows a network in my homelab is 10.0.0.1/24!) - but absolutely change public IPs in logs.

If it’s necessary to reference external users/systems in multiple log files, I’ll change the names to user1, user2, server1, db2, etc

Does it have Discovery as a normal app store? You might be able to use that.

Honestly, give the terminal a shot - it’s not as complicated as you may think.

I would consider using your Synology for what it’s good at - storage.

My homelab has a Synology DS1618 and servers are Lenovo M90q systems. They have enough compute to get the job done, and use the Synology NFS mount for storage.

• Step 1: download deb
• Step 2: open a terminal
• Step 3: sudo dpkg -i /path/to/yourde.deb

Now whether or not all the packages are fubared at this point is unknown, but that’s how to install a deb file.

How long before companies start using this as an excuse for return to office?

Sure, you’ve been working here since before the pandemic, but maybe now you’re a North Korean spy! The only way to be sure is for you to come into the office and average 4 days a week.

Yeah, for the integrated CI/CD, give GitLab a shot - it saves on spinning up a Jenkins or ConcourseCI server.

CI/CD can be useful for triggering automation after merge requests are approved, building infrastructure from code, etc.

I’ll come out with an anti-recommendation: Don’t do GitLab.

They used to be quite good, but lately (as in the past two years or so) they’ve been putting things behind a licensing paywall.

Now if your company wants to pay for GitLab, then maybe consider it? But I’d probably look at some of the other options people have mentioned in this thread.

Plus oh-my-zsh and the powerline 10k theme - this is my go-to shell.

Oh snap, are you the developer of Viewtube? If so, first off - great job. I do the infrastructure side of IT for my day job but aside from some basic go, I couldn’t code something like this to save my life.

I wish I had the chops to contribute to the project.

I’m playing something every night before bed as my calm/reset time.

Just finished up Yakuza: Like A Dragon - that ending hits hard. I’ll probably go for something different next.

I still use my gaming laptop - but mostly just for Last Epoch multiplayer/BG3. I don’t like the controller experience for either game, and i have a better voice setup for multiplayer chat on my PC.

That’s what I think I’ll be doing with my weekend. I recently (probably back in January) discovered Ventoy - it makes things much faster for testing different OSes when I don’t have to flash ISOs very time.

Heck, you could do a pre-stage play where you delegate to localhost an ansible.builtin.get_url to download the compose file before doing the rest.

After beating Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, I decided to revisit the previous game, Yakuza: Like A Dragon. I first tried playing YLAD a few years ago on my gaming PC, but the incredibly long, unskippable cut scenes were super frustrating. Infinite Wealth had some of that same problem, but the story clicked with me a bit more and I’ve fallen in love with the mix of heartfelt quirky gameplay.

Plus, the Steam Deck makes the long cut scenes way easier to deal with when you can just pause and sleep your console if you need a break.

I actually use my Steam Deck for programming, with the vast majority of my time spent in desktop mode. The updates are a pain to deal with, but I’ve got an Ansible playbook that can get me back to normal fairly easily.

Oh you sweet summer child. There is zero chance that the cost savings will be passed on to consumers. In fact, I’ll bet prices go up after an initial plateau.

At first, profits will rise due to the lack of $30/hr costs - and shareholders will celebrate the innovation.

Then when the migration to self-driving semis is complete and that profit levels out, shareholders will be pissed that the profits don’t continue to rise - so prices will rise again.

Adding to the Nazi comment - substack is basically a long form blog format, very similar (AFAICT) to Medium.

It’s anonymous bulk text posting - great for sharing logs, but don’t discount the more grey side of the internet. If you browse recent public posts there’s often some fun things like scam links, credentials, etc.

It’s definitely fallen out of favor for password dumps though.

I use skyline in our environment and man, that log collection is crutch for getting tickets updated. Oh, you need the logs? Request what you need and I’ll approve it - or I can just click a few buttons and upload the logs when I create the ticket.
