>>100770300If only he had used a different filesystem, one which is not experimental in Ubuntu or unsupported in RHEL, tang + clevis server would've allowed remote network autounlock for LVM, or TPM-based autounlock (for root). But now you need to script and maintain your own.Maybe take inspiration from Michael Stapelberg (but you'd be maybe better off using AWS KMS or HashiCorp Vault to secure the keys): https://michael.stapelberg.ch/posts/2023-10-25-my-all-flash-zfs-network-storage-build/#auto-crypto-unlock/mnt is meant to be for temporary mounted filesystems, but it's going to be that or /srv or the most appropriate mount point which an app expects for media files.
My dns on opnsense doesn't seem to be working at all. Should I blame Unbound DNS? Not sure how to diagnose this.>>100763853>least amount of electricity as possible while idleThat excludes you from used enterprise servers that would've made hotswap very cheap.I would suggest splitting tasks between the heavier ones (MC and Jellyfin) and the benign file server stuff, though you don't necessarily need two separate devices.You could also get a used SFF and a jbod external that's connected with sas cables.>>100770300You generate a random bit file (or anything really) that you shove into your encrypted LUKS partition. Assuming zfs doesn't try to load before your system, it will find the hash file there and unlock everything that needed it. There is a zfs command for arranging encryption and the unlock so go take a peek at the docs regarding it.I put media stuff where apps are expecting it. Linux folder structure is stupid anyway.
I just finished my first year of college and it sucked balls frfr. I want to apply to some IT helpdesk jobs over the summer and possibly drop out if I land one. Would that goal be realistic with this resume? Anything I should improve on?
OP here, I'm abandoning this thread since I can't delete it. This entire thing was a mistake and all I got from it was people either being disrespectful or just pontificating about the importance of finishing college of all things. I should have went to reddit. seriously. All I want is resume advice, but that's apparently too much to ask for.
>>100770560Go back and never return, faggot
>highschoolwhy are you such in a hurry to enter the workforce? just have fun in college and absorb all the knowledge that you can. If your parents are providing you financially take full advantage of it.You seem smart but you lack commitment, your customer support experience is a huge plus just finish your degree first and I have no doubt you'll land a comfy job.
>>100764490you're probably fine. i got my web dev job last year right out of college, no internships or work experience in anything ever, and my only projects were a javascript tic-tac-toe, a connect 5 ai, and an RSA implementation in c++. The only problem you really have is that you have no degree. That's pretty much the bare minimum nowadays, and I'm pretty sure your resume will just get instantly filtered 99% of the time if you don't have one, even for helpdesk jobs. I don't know what happened to you in college, but if it's just something faggy like failing classes for no reason then it's better to get your act together and continue.

As far as security and other stuff. If i’m a pleb what do i need to worry about?
yes
every version of Windows is worse than the previous. take a hint. Microsoft ruins everything they touch.
>>100771124Web search hardening Windows security, disabling telemetry (most folks use shutup10++ for that), disable unnecessary services and startup items, and permanently disable Windows Defender Antivirus on 10 & 11 and rely on any other antivirus instead, like Malwarebytes (disable Tamper Protection before you try this) due to Defender hogging too much CPU. Those dalits at Microshitz just won't put a CPU usage cap on their fucking thing, which otherwise isn't bad at all, thus it becomes more bloatware like most of their other default programs.Then you can ask around /tpg/ and /fwt/ for recommendations on alternatives to default Windows junk, like Ifranview or Honeyview in place of Photos and Notepad++ in place of Notepad.Any further wuestions, post them in /fwt/ and not here or in your own thread, unless you want to get shitposted to death.
>>100771124if you bought it or it came with the computer then probsably not. its the people ripped it off and illegally installed it that need to worry (like most of /g/).
>>100771124Windows is what everyone uses, unless you use apple.Windows is better at a lot of things then other applications.File management is only matched by Debian cinnamint, but videogames and video editors are made to run on windows operating systems, so if you want to use common applications you are going to need to use windows. If you want better security even if only because less people use linux, then I would go with one of they're operating system shells like Debian, you can still brows the internet,download and play files but it doesn't do much else.

>>100770499I've got a Flanders X311K at work and an LG EP950 at home. The X3110 has nothing to offer me and I honestly don't see it as much of an upgrade. It offers nothing new, Dolby Pulsar in 2014 had 4000 nits peak luminance and more saturated colors.
>>100770546And who exactly does the evaluation? A video game colorist? There is nobody in the gaming pipeline that could do the work. They have some technical artists but they probably work on a good quality monitor, like a few thousand dollars, but not a reference one.
>>100770688The Dolby Pulsar is massively outdated in every single way. You're just slinging 10 year old marketing everywhere as if it were still relevant today.>>100770708Contrast. Peak brightness.

>>100770815>The Dolby Pulsar is massively outdated in every single way. You're just slinging 10 year old marketing everywhere as if it were still relevant today.It could literally do everything the X3110 can do 10 years ago. That's what makes 3110 so unimpressive, it can't do anything we couldn't do before.>>100770815>Contrast. Peak brightness. Low luminance. Not something everyone needs access to at all times.

>>100770588Apple has adopted JPEG XL, but has no role in promoting, funding, or governing it. It does, however, have a role in governing and funding the Alliance for Open Media. And by extension, AV1 and AVIF.Shilling an Apple-sponsored format is literally all that you ever do.
>>100770628>>100770633You know what I mean, smartass.https://caniuse.com/avifhttps://caniuse.com/jpegxlI find it rather suspicious that apple adopted it first. They're not famous for adopting good things early on (ie USB C).
>>100770890>You know what I meanThen fucking say it, instead of outright lying because you think it helps your point. You are a shill for a format sponsored by Apple, lying about another format to try to make it look bad.Anyway, Apple actually is notorious for adopting media formats early. They want their walled garden for hardware so that they can sell their own hardware at grossly inflated prices. But for software, they want to capture the "creative" market, so they quickly adopt formats that have the most merit for creative purposes. Adobe, another early adopter for JPEG XL, is the same.You can't say it's bad because of low adoption, then blindly shit-talk adopters with blatant lies. The hypocrisy shows that you really don't care about the logic of your arguments at all.
>>100770890>Apple adopted a format that Google deliberately suppressed>Let's ignore the adoption outside of the browser realm where they have little influenceNo, there is no saving your argument.

The more I learn about linux, the more I feel like a retard.Things that should work don't work. Intuition leads you to broken installs and false command prompts. Some issues are so specific that you can't find help in forums. You later find out that the exact same thing worked on your other PC, just not your previous one. Why? No one knows. Some packes are broken in one repository but are ok in others.It's a jungle. Even when I accomplish something, I don't feel smarter. It feels like luck or being a retard that copy pasted a solution from an old forum post. Nothing ever just works.At least as a desktop operating system, that is. I have no issue with simple Samba or SSH stuff.Is there some good guide on daily driving Linux? Like, actually learning how to understand the inner workings? To get gud? Not just copy paste solutions? I really want to like Linux.>inb4 I tried Debian and Fedora
>>100769057>the more I feel like a retardAnon, you are a retard.>Intuition leads you to broken installsThe intuition of a retard, yes. This would happen with any software that a retard was "intuitively" attempting to use.>Why?Because you are a retard.>Nothing ever just worksOnly for retarded people.>Is there some good guide on daily driving Linux?
