Sounds like self inflicted pain.

It most certainly is unfortunately. gLib2.0 is apart of the Debian main repository but for some damn reason I couldn’t pull it with apt.

Resulted in building it with meson but had so much trouble.

Yeah this post is bull shit!

I just spent the last 2-3 hours building SSHFS from source for Proxmox & Debian, it really sucked!

Ps: Fuck gLib2.0

Just bricked my Proxmox install an hour ago and I had the pleasure to learn their recovery process sucks. (At least for my case)

Think of them as a simplified mimic to the windows file system, they create this fake C: drive & user directory with basic windows paths (user, app data, program files, etc) an you can choose what firmware gets installed to prefixes (like .Net frameworks) an all this is how people can run .exe executables on Linux.

When you run wine ./something.exe a prefix is automatically created and the application uses that prefix to make it think it’s using the windows fs.

I picked myself up a Asus NUC 13th gen I7, chose Proxmox VE as the OS (headless Debian 12 for the main VM) and have about 35 services running via Docker Compose essentially 24/7.

Is it the most elegant setup? No, but everything runs beautifully.

Just make sure your Linux kernel supports the Intel chipset as they are relatively new.

Taking a look at both of these, Revolut seems more like a UK bank rather than something anyone can quickly signup for.

Wise seems promising, the question lies whether or not their privacy & security is reputable.

Thank you for this!

This was maybe 2-3ish years ago;

I started with a raspberry pi 4 bundle from Amazon, played around with the Linux filesystem, bash shell, APT package manager and just kept reinstalling the headless Debian 12 OS if I believed to have bricked it beyond repair.

Eventually learned about the Docker Engine & Docker Compose and that essentially gave access to a plethora of software I would’ve have never have used before.

The raspberry pi 4 started to show sluggishness as I started piling more and more services on it so, Instead of buying traditional server grade hardware I liked the small form factor of the Pi so I opted for a 13th gen Asus Nuc with an 12 core i7.

Everything runs beautifully now and I even run Debian 12 on my desktop as well!

I don’t watch YouTube often but I’ve tried Yattee and had little issue with it. While it does use Invidious & Piped API’s I would argue it’s your best choice if your looking for privacy + native functionality.

spin up a second pihole docker and upgrade them separately so they can failover to the other one while upgrading.

Think I’m going to take this advice and put it in action! Thank you!

I think something else may be wrong if it breaks for 20 minutes.

When I originally setup my PiHole many, many, many months ago when I was still learning the Docker engine I had little to no issue.

I don’t know what caused it either being a power-outage or network loss but ever since I’ve been experiencing DNS related issues (I suspect it’s NTP not syncing), some days I’ll wake up before work realizing “oh shit I have no internet access” frantically trying to fix the issue.

I think i might take the advice of other commenters here and host two PiHole servers on separate devices/stacks, just got to hope my router supports it.

I could be wrong but I feel like I’ve seen

AE_AML_INVALID_RESOURCE_TYPE

Before,

Now take what I say with a grain of salt because in my experience 9 times out of 10 drives not mounting properly stop the system from booting, if you have multiple drives connected to your pc that automatically mount and you’re familiar with your /etc/fstab I would suggest disabling auto-mount to any drive that isn’t your boot drive and try again.

I personally couldn’t even get ssl/tls working with NPM, reverse proxying worked but it really didn’t feel right.

Eventually learned about SWAG and had a much better experience setting it up. Now here I am on Traefik thriving.

What kind of PC is this? Does it have an SSD?

If it’s anything like my company a “New” desktop is the managers old desktop.

Mr Torvald, I don’t feel so well.

Basically Linux mint or bazzite is the system and how it’s organized while plasma is how I’m seeing that system represented and interacting with it in other words?

Yup, seems like you got the gist of it!

Obviously once you start reading documents on software you’ll start to understand it all better. Suggest reading into the Docker engine for self-hosting software on your network!

how does plasma and Debian fit in cus that stuff is ringing a bell.

Distributions like Ubuntu, Kali Linux, Linux Mint are actually based off of Debian however, each distribution provides their own packages and typically have system files in different places, so packages made for Ubuntu may or may not work with Debian and vice-versa.

Like plasma being separate than a distro

KDE Plasma is a Desktop Environment (aka your desktop). When you install a Linux distro on your computer you’ll typically be given an option on which software you want to pre install. You’ll see software like GNOME, KDE Plasma, Xfce, Cinnamon, etc and by doing a little research into them you can pick the environment that suites you best.

GNOME gave me MacOS vibes while KDE is more Windows.

Edit; I should’ve mentioned you can choose to go headless without a GUI and only run the shell which saves a lot of resources.

Hope this explains things easily!

I personally started out with Debian given that a vast majority of distributions are Debian based, typically paired with KDE Plasma 5 for my desktop environment, and learned from there.

Now Debian is really stable but does require command-line configuration quite often so it may feel complicated but if you’re capable of reading & following documentation then you should be all good.

Currently in the process of fixing up my old Asus TUF FX505DU with Debian & KDE Plasma.

Setting up Nvidia Optimus would be a pain if it weren’t for Envy Control, run one command and boom GPU’s speak nicely to one another.
