  • I only had issues with the latest tag when dealing with the community apps. Some of them would randomly break and I’d have to roll back. Once I manually configured the docker settings using normal file mounts things were plenty stable. I think the issues were with the k8s community charts not with the underlying software. And that was fixed by just configuring it manually like however the dockerhub docs suggest.

    I would still have the occasional issue where a container would freeze and a force stop wouldn’t work, and spinning up a new one wouldn’t work because the ports were still used. But I traced that back to a bad ssd with write timeouts. I still think truenas’s k8s wrapper is buggy. Even if a container crashes hard, I shouldn’t have to reboot the system to fix it. I switched to unraid and have been blissfully happy since.


  • Not sure if you were aware of the recent (last year) drama with a major contributing group to the community apps. TrueCharts I think they were called? I had some truecharts containers and some straight truenas containers. Then TrueCharts ragequit and took down their repo. I ended up reinstalling all those apps manually because for the life of me I still couldn’t get the dumb truenas versions to work. Also, I wasn’t a fan of the pvc (or whatever it was called) storage containers that got used by default. Made eveverything more difficult. My advice is to use the truenas community apps as a learning tool to configure your own properly with the truenas software. I noticed the community apps would seriously take around a minute to restart, but the ones I made manually would takes seconds. Same docker image, never figured out why, maybe a k8s thing?



  • Garuda - because like endeavor it’s arch for lazy people, plus I got sold on the gaming edition by how much I like the theme and the latest drivers. But that’s just what got me to try it, what sold me on it is when I had a vm of it that ran out of hdd space mid kernel update. I shut it down to expand the drive, booted it back up and no kernels present. Fiddling around in grub in a panic made me realize snappertools auto snapshots btrfs before updating. I think only once in my life (out of dozens of tries) has Microsoft’s restorepoints actually worked for me. Booting to the snapshot was effortless, clicking through to recover to that snapshot was a breeze. I rebooted again just to make sure it was working and it did. Re-updated and I was back in action.

    That experience made me love garuda. I highly recommend snappertools+btrfs from now on and use it whenever I can. Yes, preventative tools and warnings would have stopped it from happening, but you can’t stop everything, and it’s a comfort to have.


  • Might need more info about your setup. The reverse proxy probably has some logs you aren’t looking at. Most bots from what I’ve seen do ip:port scans hitting every ip and every port. Nginx reverse proxy manager or something similar isn’t going to forward ip:8123 to home assistant. A straight router port forward will, but the reverse proxy manager will look at the domain GET request for https://ha.hit_the_rails.net to your LAN ip:port. It’s a little security through obscurity as they have to know your sub+domain.

    For a time I had port 22 open and forwarded directly to a server. Constant bot traffic. Changed the port, put an ssh honeypot on 22, and it almost completely went away. Sure the bots could be smart enough to scan and find another open ssh port, but they rarely did. I assume because anyone savvy enough to change the ssh port is savvy enough to not allow default logins like ubnt:ubnt and root:1234 which were by far the most common logins I got in the honeypot.

    Ahhhh have you double checked to make sure your GPU will fit in your case? I see you went micro atx for case and mobo, but gpus nowadays be chonky. It should fit, but I’ve seen new builds where the gpu didn’t fit in a normal atx case due to layout and mobo positioning.

    I have a similar build, but everything is a generation behind. I really like Garuda Linux. Arch keeps the latest drivers comin’ and It’s a nice easy install. Btrfs+snappertools come setup by default, and it’s saved my bacon a few times. Really nice to be able to have grub boot to a snapshot and just work. And the snapshots are auto created everytime pacman is run.



  • I don’t consider myself left leaning. Both left and right are corrupt and neither actually practice what they preach. The left is the US is currently the lesser of two evils though. I do consider myself a socialist-libertarian. I think government should be there to keep the populace safe, and provide basic human necessities to all, and no more. The govt should not be able to execute capital punishment nor declare war. Retalitory strikes, defense and supporting allies defending themselves are all fine, but we could get rid of most of the military and funnel that money back to socialist programs and be a MUCH wealthier and happier country.






  • I can understand it. I’m an introvert, I absolutely loathe neighbors, people are fine, but neighbors are the worst. I’m constantly creating and building things virtually and rarely get to make any significant decisions. I constantly want to do things differently, and I’m frequently proven right, but the pattern continues. I see the effects of a sedentary lifestyle on my body. I enjoy several hobbies working with my hands. I am sick of scheduled pointless daily meetings.

    Truthfully my dream job is to be independantly wealthy, but I can’t afford that quite yet, nor retirement. So if you combine all that together I can see many programmers wanting to rage quit and become their own boss. Most stay in tech, but that’s a career path not a meme. So the farmer life is the perceived hermit life that pays.

    I’d rather buy an established orchard myself. Hard work is done. Do the occasional spray, some pruning, mowing and fertalizing. Automate the watering. Hire some pickers. From the outside it seems easy (probably isn’t). But maybe easier than buying an apartment and being a landlord.
