Tesla shareholder criticizes Elon Musk’s ‘ridiculous’ $56bn pay deal ahead of vote by SonyJunkie in c/teslamotors@lemmy.zip

I agree, at this point he's holding Tesla back.

Their range of cars has become stale and outdated. His vanity project, the Cybertruck, is a disaster, the Model S and X aren't selling and the Y isn't getting a refresh anytime soon. Tesla can't continue on just the Model 3 sales. They need to compete with the established manufacturers who are now getting their act together when it comes to EVs and also acknowledge that the Chinese EVs are viable alternatives.

Tesla need a small SUV and small compact, it's what people want.

Company disables AI after bot starts swearing at customer, calls itself the ‘worst delivery firm in the world’ by SonyJunkie in c/humor@lemmy.world

[-] SonyJunkie@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

I'm in the UK and my experience is that DPD are one of the better ones, never had any real problems with their deliveries and updates by email and app are great.

But I suppose, we have Yodel and Evri as alternatives and they are proper terrible so the bar isn't very high!!

I would offer to send you one, but stupid Brexit makes sending stuff abroad expensive and complicated 🙄

I'm fortunate to live in Cambridge so my wife popped in to the store and picked one up for me. I forgot to ask her to get a case so that's an excuse to go back over the weekend 🤣

[SOLVED] Help With NFS Share To Proxmox Container (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by SonyJunkie@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

EDIT

I found the issue, it was me!! LOL I thought it had to be a setting I had forgotten and it was, I forgot to enable NFS & Nesting under Features in the Otions of the cotainer, see this image - https://imgur.com/bSiozKS

Thank you to everyone that took the time to reply and offer their suggestions.

Hi All,

Let me start with some basic basic background on my set up, I have a server running Proxmox with some Ubuntu containers. I have a separate server running TrueNas with a share that has both NFS & SMB set up. I can see this share in Windows 11 and read and write to it.

One of the Ubuntu containers is able to see this share via NFS and read and write to it too. I am testing Sonarr, Prowlarr & Qbittorrent Docker containers and got the basics set up, Sonarr can find episodes via Prowlarr of a TV show, hand it off to Qbittorrent to download and then move it from the download folder to the TV folder. Both the download folder and the TV folder are on the TrueNas server.

I then set up a Docker container for AudioBookShelf in the same Ubuntu CT and that can also read and write to the NFS share.

My issue is that I tried to set up another Ubuntu CT on the Proxmox server but cannot seem to access the NFS share on the TrueNas server.

This is what I did (which I think was the same process as the working CT)

1/Create a privileged conatiner
2/ Update and upgrade the CT
3/ Install nfs-common
4/ Create a directory in the CT in the /mnt directory for the NFS share
5/ added this line to the fstab file in /etc 192.168.0.188:/mnt/store/test-share /mnt/test-share nfs defaults 0 0

However, when I run mount -a I get this error message mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.0.188:/mnt/store/test-share

Running df -h does not show the mount obviously but it does in the working CT

As a further test, I cloned the working CT, deleted all the Docker containers and I can still see the NFS just fine.

I have probably missed a step while setting up the new CT but I'm not sure what.

Can anyone offer some help?

What are you Reading? (August 2023) by SonyJunkie in c/sciencefiction@lemmy.world

[-] SonyJunkie@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I consume most of my books via audiobooks.

I'm just about to finish the final Expeditionary Force book, overall I really enjoyed the series, yes there were a few low points (we won't talk about the the audio drama one!) but I thought it held up well.

This is my list of upcoming books:

Fan-fic based on Artemis by Andy Weir (unrealizedreality.wordpress.com)

Andy Weir tweeted this fan-fic based on his book Artemis.

I found it an enjoyable read and it was good to revisit this setting. I know the book had mixed reception and is nowhere near as good as The Martian of PHM but I enjoyed the book.

I know it's a recently new set and hoping for discounts this soon is being optimistic, but 🤷‍♂️

Max Verstappen wins the 2023 Bristish Grand Prix by SonyJunkie in c/formula1@lemmy.world

I agree, or in the thumbnail!! So frustrating when you're waiting for the highlights show on TV and scrolling only to have it spoiled for you!! 🙄

Thoughts on posting spoilers? by SonyJunkie in c/formula1@lemmy.world

[-] SonyJunkie@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I don't watch either qualifying or the race live, more often on a several hour delay. So I absolutely hate those posts that have the results as a picture because it's all too easy to accidentally see the results while scrolling through a feed.

I would much prefer that the post title be something like "British GP Race Results" and then the results in the first comment, not the body of the opening post, that way I can scroll through my feed and not accidentally see the results while leaving people who know the results to discuss the subject.

Anyway, that's my 2 pence worth!

Was Perez Just Unlucky Or Out Of Form? (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago by SonyJunkie@lemmy.world to c/formula1@lemmy.world

Perez crossed the line with just enough time for another lap and the only driver to do so but failed to make it of Q1.

Was it due to the tyres being too cold from waiting for ages at the end of the pitlane or because he's not on form lately?

It seems that all the drivers that went out first all had slower times.

Do you think he would have done a better lap had he been able to complete it?

Dell Optiplex 7060 MFF Faulty Motherboard (lemmy.world)

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/953492

I have a Dell Optiplex 7060 MFF that wont boot, according to the power LED flash sequence it has a faulty motherboard.

The motherboard has a model number of IPCFL-BS 65W.

It had a decent i7 processor so I removed it and put it in a lower spec 7060 that I bought, I then installed the i5 from the other 7060 but it still wouldn't boot, no surprise there!!

I suppose I can do one of the following:

sell it as is for spares or repairs on eBay (the CPU (i5-8500T) has got to be worth at least £30 on it's own)

get a replacement MB from eBay or an AliExpress clone

try and work out what has failed on this MB and fix it (this is way above my skill level)

Anyone have any other ideas or suggestions?

Following Lemmy Users on Mastodon (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 year ago by SonyJunkie@lemmy.world to c/fediverse@lemmy.world

9 comments fedilink

Hi All, I'm new to the Fediverse but I'm slowly learning about it and it excites me. It has shown me that there is more than the big services to be enjoyed.

However, one thing I'm not sure on is how to following users across the Fediverse works. I have an Lemmy account on lemmy.world instance and I have a Mastodon account on mastodonapp.uk instance.

I have installed the official Mastodon app, I searched and found my Lemmy user account (@SonyJunkie@lemmy.world) in the app and followed it but when I post on Lemmy these do not show up in the Mastodon app or timeline. I tried @ing my Lemmy account from my Mastodon account and it obviously showed showed up in my timeline but I didn't get any notification on my Lemmy account.

Am I misunderstanding how this works? If so, please can someone explain it to me using words of one syllable or less!!

Which lemmy clients do you recommend for Android? by SonyJunkie in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

[-] SonyJunkie@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I'm swapping between the PWA of lemmy.world and wefwef.

I like the clean, simple interface that wefwef provides but I don't like the iPhone inspired UI, sorry!

I also check out the beehaw PWA to see what being posted there.

Waiting on Sync for Lemmy though.

With Perez out of way, Ferrari are “ready to attack” Verstappen in Austria by SonyJunkie in c/formula1@lemmy.world

[-] SonyJunkie@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I hope so too, but I think Max is on another level and I just can't trust Ferrari on strategy, I really want to, but history is against them!!

Part of my wants to see Red Bull win every race this season just to see if the FIA do something about absolute dominance by one team or stick to their line that its within the rules and other teams have to catch up! But the other part of me who is a fan of F1 and no particular team or driver wants to see competition for wins from all teams.
