Overall gaming share is 4%? I think you mean linux useragents account for about 4% of website traffic at measured points- which is not indicative of anything because my crawler also pretends to be things it isn’t.

Maybe it’s because of what I listen to but I can generally find it on on Bandcamp, Soulseek or torrent trackers.

I run all my dockers in LXCs on Proxmox and there hasn’t been a single problem.

I understand your point but I reiterate that I don’t connect to unsafe networks. If someone has remote code execution on a device on my side of the network then they are also inside my apartment and I’d be more worried about that.

you are brave to use your laptop that way

why? I don’t connect it to untrusted networks

You shouldn’t be touching it, honestly. There’s a firewall at your router. It should be responsible for blocking incoming traffic. Firewalls on individual machines are for servers where you know exactly what’s going in and out. I don’t have a firewall on my desktop or laptop.

You will spend the best years of your life chasing random network connections if you block everything by default.

Your ISP doesn’t give a fuck, it’s not legal trouble. It’s just overzealous sysadmins blocking anything that seems sus. I am permanently banned from most SoMe, for example, for having abnormal network activity but none of it is illegal.

You do face issues running a regular middle/guard relay. My IP is tainted from overzealous sysadmins looking up Tor related IPs and seeing mine because middle relays are public knowledge. I am banned from a lot of places for simply being a middle relay.

Oh damn true I forgot about adding a repo

install debian

apt install flatpak

flatpak install theThingYouWantTheLatestOf

The issue is that I can’t really fit all of the data somewhere else. Can I shove it onto the 4TB drive and then mount it on a new proxmox install and recover from there?

The answer was a resounding no

It might not be, but I am intimately familiar with it. It’s proxmox itself that’s the wildcard here. I will shrink the LVM and then DD it to the new disk.

Couldn’t I just shrink a partition myself? I could clone the LXCs to the 4TB drive and just shrink the LVM partition significantly. DD the disks, recreate the LVM on the new SSD and move em back, right?

Using a larger disk isn’t an option, unfortunately. I don’t have that kind of money.

All of my services run on LXC containers. Some files and configs are backed up to NAS and offsite. The containers are snapshotted in their entirety before I do any work on them. A snapshot takes 5 seconds to make and causes no downtime. If I regret a change or mess it up, I can restore the snapshot in under a minute at the cost of some seconds of downtime.

My only non-container machines are my desktop (doesn’t count), my NAS and the Hypervisor. The Hypervisor is very clean and wouldn’t be much fuss to reinstall and the NAS is literally just Debian with NFS. All of these have a regular rsync which runs to backup the important files.

By having it be a container
