I have no issue with corporate funding. I have an issue when a company gets to make all the decisions. Lot of good software has gone to hell when the shareholders need profit now instead of seeing a long term vision.
We’ll see, but I’ve been around this rodeo enough to just avoid it from the start and take some pain now instead of putting in effort that’s going to be wasted later.
2023, I remember the announcement last year. Not sure where you’re getting 2014 from, that was even before NC split off.
What puts me off of Owncloud is the new ownership. I couldn’t care less if it’s written in the blood of Christ, if I have to worry about the rug getting pulled out from under me for self-hosting, it’s a no-go for me, Joe.
Nextcloud works well for me and has for years. The people that don’t like it can go use this, and we’ll see you back in a couple of years when it goes open-core or worse.
Well, lord knows we wouldn’t want anyone except the DNC leadership unilaterally choosing the candidate. When has that ever gone badly?
More chins than a Chinese phone book.
Not anymore. They completely divested that off to having to get RPM Fusion repos set up and then manually install the codecs.
As another user said, Nobara does all this, and I use Nobara myself. But Fedora itself has made all that harder.
FWIW, +1 for Nobara. I think it’s an excellent turnkey Fedora for most purposes. But it’s a little chancy on being dependent on a single maintainer.
But Fedora itself isn’t noob friendly when you have to figure out how to add the non-free repos and install all the rest of the shit. Nobara takes care of that well.
Probably depends on the ISP, but I just have 2 nics in each server, and eth1 on both is on a switch to the cable modem. If one goes down, the other comes up fine. Can’t recall if I spoofed the same MAC on the OPNsense VMs.
VMs under KVM are pretty much bare metal and Proxmox doesn’t use much for resources itself, it’s basically a headless Debian with a webserver interface to do all the KVM stuff.
Proxmox, especially if you use ZFS for the VM datastore, makes a home lab so much easier to revert, backup and deploy/clone VMs and LXCs. I highly recommend it if you’re just starting out. Once you wrap your head around it, it gets out of the way and lets you just tinker with your projects, and not have to manually do everything in VirtManager or at the command line.
Combined with Proxmox Backup Server, it’s a production ready hypervisor for anything you decide to keep. Also, the HA features work well enough that I had my main routing OPNsense VM jump between nodes when the primary node lost a drive, and I didn’t notice for a week, it was that seamless.
If you want to lose most of your tooling and community support, Podman is a great way to go.

This guy has 3M subs and doesn’t take free samples for reviews. I think he’s doing OK, and damn, if you want a detailed comparison of something, he’s the guy. He’s branched away from the mainly mechanic oriented stuff recently, but still staying unbought.
Oh, you need media codecs out of the box to watch pretty much anything in your browser?
That takes Fedora out.
OpenSUSE has probably the most confusing install interface for a noob you’ll ever find. Which DE do I choose? What other software do I put in? How do I partition? Oh, I click a button here to make a user, or can I ignore it completely?
So much for OpenSUSE.
And don’t get me started on Arch. You’d be way better off pushing a new user to Manjaro but everyone’s got their panties in a twist about its devs.
Whatcha got now, big guy?
I doubt his asshole will be having fun at all.
IDK about Texas, but in Alberta there’s an Orphan Well fund that every company contributes to as part of their royalties that covers expected cleanup. And that’s only bankrupt companies, if a solvent company shuts down a well, they pay to restore the land or the province does it and sues them for it.
Fuck, sarcasm is lost on this crowd.
Dem strategists are either stupid or malicious.
Which honestly, he needs corpo support to get nominated and elected, since this is an oligarchy.
Your Overton Window has fell off the side of the building and broken on the pavement.
I’m sorry, sir, this is a Wendy’s.
I had a nephew that found out he could get a $500 bursary for trade school as a male, or $5000 as a female. A trip down to the DMV netted him (her) $4500.
Can’t say I wasn’t amused.
