That’s insane. I would consider a ipv4 -> ipv6 cloud hosted haproxy style setup if this was my only option.

i would just ask for an Ipv4 address. I asked Vodafone for one and they just gave it to me for free.

On Linux VA-API works really well for AMD video encoding. I have a small home server with an AMD Ryzen 5 5600G and my experience has been excellent.

The only downside is that some companies decided hardware decoding violated some patent and disabled hardware encoding in the default va-api package. You just need to switch to the freeworld version of va-api and everything works well.

Ahh. Bone Apple Tea moment.

This reaks of chatgpt. All the way down to the milktoast ending.

You’re not wrong. NIV is very generic. Lol.

The thing that stands out to me in the translation you have is making idles to yourself. Instead of for yourself. That and using the term Jehovah. Those to me are major pointers to using the NWT, which among the Christian diaspora is seen as less reputable.

I’m a secular person now but as a formally very religious person I know a bad Bible translation when I see it.

Assuming you a referring to Leviticus 26:1 a better translation from the NIV is:

Do not make idols or set up an image or a sacred stone for yourselves, and do not place a carved stone in your land to bow down before it. I am the LORD your God.

Given this I can see how Catholics can justify having statues and art and the like.

In case you don’t like the NIV here is a meta comparison.

At the cool network kids hate nat. 😤

I don’t think you have Stockholm syndrome. You just like what you already understand well. It’s a normal part of the human condition.

All those features of nat also work with IPV6 with no nat in the exact same way. When I want to open up a port I just make a new firewall rule. Plus you get the advantages of being able to address the ach host behind the firewall. It’s a huge win with no losses.

I think it’s worth taking the time to learn IPv6 property. If you have a good understanding of IPv4 it shouldn’t take you more than an afternoon.

Eliminating NAT and just using firewall rules (ie what NAT does behind your back) is incredibly freeing.

I don’t get people complaining about typing out IPs. I like to give all of my clients full FQDNs but you don’t have to. Just using mDNS would be enough to avoid typing a bunch of numbers.

You shouldn’t have to?? Maybe you might need to change the mask in your firewall settings if the ipv6 allocation block size changes but that should be it.

Everything else should just work as normal.

It’s ok. I would go with “user hostile” in this case.

Fair. But in that case best use a more appropriate word.

I get not being a fan but no toggle switch. But in this case it literally isn’t “enshittification”. Is it anti choice? Yes. Is it enshittification? No. Enshittification does not just mean “thing I don’t like”.

Here is a quote that describes what enshittification is:

Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users; then they abuse their users to make things better for their business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die. I call this enshittification, and it is a seemingly inevitable consequence arising from the combination of the ease of changing how a platform allocates value, combined with the nature of a “two sided market”, where a platform sits between buyers and sellers, hold each hostage to the other, raking off an ever-larger share of the value that passes between them.

I know “Enshittification” is the Lemmy word of the year but you can’t just call everything you don’t like enshittification.

This clearly isn’t it.

I agree that’s why most of my systems run btrfs. (Maybe soon bcachefs).

But XFS is in the same tier of “datedness” as EXT4, just with more performance. Some apps like ScyllaDB actually require XFS performance crazily enough.

Btrfs or XFS.

No idea why people are into EXT4. XFS is more performant by far.

As a workaround yes. Just do your NFS exports over WireGuard. WireGuard acts as the authentication and encryption.

SSHFS will be incredibly slow. I would avoid it personally.

NFS will be performant and is easy to set up. This being said by default NFS is without any security.

The problem is that Kerberos is a huge pain to set up. I would avoid this unless you really need Kerberos.

If you want security NFS + WireGuard will serve you well.

Also I would consider Samba/CIFS if it is for local convenient fine access. It’s not super secure but for me it’s a good trade off.

You can fix this by manually placing the /boot partition outside of luks when you do your install. I did it and now my opensuse system boots in a reasonable time. Annoying to do but 100% worth it.
