If the goal is to avoid calculations with decimal places, why not just leave Pi in the result?

I’d say NixOS is great for servers, mostly. Only having to worry about certain things (secure boot with custom keys, FDE, partition layout, network, sshd, firejail, etc.) once, and then replicating the same setup on another machine is waaay more convenient than going “I wonder what I was thinking when setting up this machine” once in a while when looking at some machine again you haven’t touched in some time. When it comes to desktop usage, the whole thing does not feel as magical - configuring system options in e.g. KDE is still a lot of clicking around in a GUI. I still use it for my desktop machine, just so I don’t have to think about another distro.

You just made my day, kind internet person! That’s exactly the holy grail setup I’ve been looking for for the last couple of months. Will try it out as soon as I can!

These containers are running on various servers I have at home, not on a desktop machine. I use podman as an alternative to docker, because it’s fully libre and does not require running containers as root. To be honest, I’ve never thought about running flatpak containers for these kinds of services – do you have a setup like this that you want to share?

Have you tried weightlifting?

4 ft is about 1.2m - a Bo is typically around 1.8m

Try adding lots of butter to everything

That’s just me_irl, but in german

If you make it a bit thicker, that sounds like Kefir

No, your VPN provider needs to offer port forwarding for that to work. You can still use qbittorrent without port forwarding, but it’ll be harder to find peers which could lower your speeds

AFAIK the selling point of gluetun is that the traffic from e.g. a qbittorrent container is guaranteed to go through the VPN - this is also what one would need port forwarding for

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t support this. But I can see how the suits at Synology could come to the conclusion that this is a great idea

Liked the original better

People who buy overpriced “solutions” instead of taking the time to configure a PC seem like exactly the crowd to enjoy a closed ecosystem (see apple)

Nice, what kind of R/W speeds do you get? I opted for 3x16 in RAID5 (ZFS)

4x12 in RAID10, or what’s your setup?

Don’t get me wrong, I dislike other gaming consoles too. Why would I buy a device that I don’t really own, i.e. the manufacturer can pull the rug from under it at any time and render it completely useless? I get your point about ‘innovative’ designs. But then they should sell the device separately and allow the user to with it as they please (see steam deck).

I’ve always felt the other way around: If you’re trying to sell me games, make them for PC. I’m not buying a new device just for Mario

You can use FDE and setup a minimal ssh server like dropbear to run at startup. This way, you can supply the password via a keyboard connected to the machine OR via ssh. This gives you a similar workflow to the data partition you mentioned, but encrypts the entire system.
