I don’t understand - you want a layer to hide database internals but also a web app that “is only the db itself”?

A lot of other people who took the test got largely the same result as when they joined the company — my results had worsened (by the HR Manager’s standards) — she later told me that I was anti-authoritarian and more likely to do what I thought was right rather than what I had been instructed to do. […]

She mentioned that my chances of securing the job upon re-interviewing at the company were slim due to my psychometric profile.

What a nice thing to say to one of your senior employees. HR people really are something else. They could’ve easily lost him that day because of some random bullshit.

NUCs make really nice homelab servers. They can give you a lot of power while not sucking too much electricity. I have used three NUCs to build a kubernetes cluster and I’m very happy with them.

The only thing that made me buy additional hardware was the need for 10Gb Networking and more internal storage, which I couldn’t realize with my NUCs. I also learned to love the IPMI feature of server motherboards, that NUCs don’t offer afaik. I would recommend to use a hypervisor like proxmox which makes it easy to spin up new servers inside virtual machines - this way you don’t have to re-install your OS on the NUC everytime something goes wrong or needs to be upgraded.

Generally a NUC is a great device for a homelab, especially if you’re just starting out!

Since you’re also located in germany, I’d like to share a site I found when I was looking for my own router based on OPNsense: NRG Systems. Some of their models use pretty old hardware, but I got the IPU651 with the 19" chassis and I really love it.

Also good with Boost once I opened the image and clicked “HD”.

The fact that the license plates are withheld "cannot be described in any other way than as a unique attack on a company operating in Sweden.”

The fact that Tesla refused to sign a collective agreement cannot be described in any other way than as a unique attack on swedish worker rights.

Get fucked.

Also not a fan about the closed source thing, but I like about Obsidian that it’s all just markdown. If I ever need to ditch it, I can keep and use my existing files as they are.

Would this also be possible with Zettlr or Logseq?

Fixed, thanks.

Yeah, tail would be the more obvious choice instead of negating head.

Fuck, I need coffee. @klay@lemmy.world is right (again).

You’re right, I edited my comment. Thanks!

This line seems to list all dumps and then deletes all but the two most recent ones.

In detail:

• ls -1 /backup/*.dump lists all files ending with .dump alphabetically inside the /backup directory
• head -n -2 returns all filenames except the two most recent ones from the end of the list
• xargs rm -f passes the filenames to rm -f to delete them

Take a look at explainshell.com.

Bitwarden doesnt rely on the cloud either. You can host it yourself or use another backend like Vaultwarden.

Yeah, the quality is really good. It’s also not cheap. I bought this case mostly because it’s rather shallow and did fit into my previous server rack.

I’m now at a point where I should buy another drive cage but I’m a bit hesitant to spend 150€ for it. Well…

Edit: Any reason you decided to go with a non-server mainboard without IPMI and ECC support?

Fun! I used the exact same chassis for my NAS. Thanks for sharing!

I don’t use rclone at all, restic is perfectly capable to backup to remote storage on its own.

I’ve been working in IT for about 6/7 years now and I’ve been selfhosting for about 5. And in all this time, in my work environment or at home, I’ve never bothered about backups.

That really is quite a confession to make, especially in a professional context. But good for you to finally come around!

I can’t really recommend a solution with a GUI but I can tell you a bit about how I backup my homelab. Like you I have a Proxmox cluster with several VMs and a NAS. I’ve mounted some storage from my NAS into Proxmox via NFS. This is where I let Proxmox store backups of all VMs.

On my NAS I use restic to backup to two targets: An offsite NAS which contains full backups and additionally Wasabi S3 for the stuff I really don’t want to lose. I like restic a lot and found it rather easy to use (also coming from borg/borgmatic). It supports many different storage backends and multithreading (looking at you, borg).

I run TrueNAS, so I make use of ZFS Snapshots too. This way I have multiple layers of defense against data loss with varying restore times for different scenarios.

One simple way to pull the new image into your cluster is to overwrite the latest tag, specify imagePullPolicy: Always in your deployment and then use kubectl rollout restart deployment my-static-site from within your pipeline. Kubernetes will then terminate all pods and replace them with new ones that pull the latest image.

You can also work with versioned tags and kubectl set image deployment/my-static-site site=my/image:version. This might be a bit nicer and allows imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent, but you have to pass your version number into your pipeline somehow, e.g. with git tags.

What the fuck. Thanks for sharing!

She wanted to strike until “justice is served”, I think now it’s time to eat again.

Those are probably some of the most complex and sophisticated machines humanity has ever built. Each one costs 300 million euro, consists of around 100.000 parts, weights almost 200 tons and needs dozens of specialized suppliers to be built.

Good luck reverse engineering something like that.

Even if you had the exact blueprints and enough knowledge, creating a functional production chain would be extremely hard, take years and cost billions.

Not OP but I’m doing almost the same thing in Kubernetes. Basically you start a Nextcloud container but only to run the cronjob, not Nextcloud itself. In my case, Kubernetes creates a new container for each cron execution. Apparently there’s also a cron.sh script already bundled with the Nextcloud image, that can run continously. At least OP doesn’t seem to mount the script from somewhere else.
