I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO
It was really simple to do in Proxmox.
You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.
My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40
It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.
The only issues I've had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.
Are you using truenas as the entire homelab?
I also love messing with stuff until it breaks and I learn something, but I've decided I just want my files to be accessible.
So I actually have truenas virtualized with a passed through HBA so I can run proxmox to host all my breakable VMs while leaving truenas alone.
Bus gloves to go with my bus pants
Its not actually sustainable for the whole planet. Meat farming, particularly beef, is terrible for the environment.
Not to mention the already dubious state of meat production in the US, the country with the highest consumption of meat. I don't think these issues would be solved with everyone on an all meat diet. Obviously they'd worsen.
I'm glad its working for you, but consider the larger implications of 7 billion people going all meat. Or even just the entirety of the US.
As a guy who felt the same way what 20 years ago when I played that game.
Keep it up. World needs to know.
But he did fuck up in the next campaign when he grabbed frostmourne. That was objectively a bad move.
Great read and good points by you.
That's a fair read and I had kinda come to that thought process. He's a friend of Trumps and I guess Musk as well. So he's okay with fascists.
But I do want to point out that in the linked article, he talks about a guy, Franchi, who received support from Communists and presumably the UK while resisting Mussolini but was a monarchist who fell into right wing activities after the war and was charged for plotting a pro monarchy court d'etat.
Much like how I don't condemn small African anti colonial governments for taking Russian assistance. I don't immediately view a struggling Small Pro Capitalist state taking USA assistance as inherently condemn able.
I don't know Milei's full views, but I struggle to have "guy who's rounding up all the racial undesirables and occupying cities with troops" on the same level as "guy who thinks letting companies pay in milk is good". Both are dangerous and bad ideas, but one is much MUCH worse in my opinion.
If I'm missing something, I'm genuinely down to learn more. These are just my concerns with my limited understanding.
That's so funny. Rip those poor idiots HAH!
Genuine question for an OOTL guy
Is Milei actually a fascist and why?
I just genuinely haven't kept up with him I knew he was a pretty serious libertarian cut all the government subsidy type, but I didn't think he was a fascist.
"Well it's good to know weird shit happens everywhere in this damn universe. And I was enthralled by your personal logs. Sorry, we had to listen to them just in case you were holding back Borg Intel or something, and I just wanted to personally thank you for not trying to talk that Neelix guy into coming back with you. My stars, you gave him a cooking show?"
"These were dire times, admiral."
Its a shame to see the game become a cardboard funkopop competitor.
My rack is finished for now (because I'm out of money).
Last time I posted I had some jank cables going through the rack and now we're using patch panels with color coordinated cables!
But as is tradition, I'm thinking about upgrades and I'm looking at that 1U filler panel. A mini PC with a 5060ti 16gb or maybe a 5070 12gb would be pretty sick to move my AI slop generating into my tiny rack.
I'm also thinking about the PI cluster at the top. Currently that's running a Kubernetes cluster that I'm trying to learn on. They're all PI4 4GB, so I was going to start replacing them with PI5 8/16GB. Would those be better price/performance for mostly coding tasks? Or maybe a discord bot for shitposting.
Thoughts? MiniPC recs? Wanna bully me for using AI? Please do!
So I have rebuilt my Production rack with very little in terms of an actual software plan.
I host mostly docker contained services (Forgejo, Ghost Blog, OpenWebUI, Outline) and I was previously hosting each one in their own Ubuntu Server VM on Proxmox thus defeating the purpose.
So I was going to run a VM on each of these Thinkcentres that worked as a Kubernetes Cluster and then ran everything on that. But that also feels silly since these PCs are already Clustered through Proxmox 9.
I was thinking about using LXC but part of the point of the Kubernetes cluster was to learn a new skill that might be useful in my career and I don't know how this will work with Cloudflared Tunnels which is my preferred means of exposing services to the internet.
I'm willing to take a class or follow a whole bunch of "how-to" videos, but I'm a little frazzled on my options. Any suggestions are welcome.
Okay Kubernetes people. I am about to build my first cluster with 4 Raspberry Pi 4B 4gb models powered over POE.
I was going to host just some basic stuff on it (forgejo, a couple Ghost Blogs) and try hosting a Mastodon instance.
The documentation mentioned that I should not use the SD cards for database stuff. So I was going to get some super short thumb drives.
What is everyone else's set up look like with raspberry pis? And how important is matching hardware?
I'm sure I'll learn more from reading the documents but this is my concern right now.
(I was also required to upload a photo so have my Latitude D630)
I've been wearing Xero shoes as my preferred every day shoe and my hiking shoe of choice for a while. I got a few pairs on a steep sale and now my last pair is starting to die.
I don't mind getting more, but I'd like to see what else is out there. I used to wear Altra and I've gotten Hobbart shoes, but those were weird shaped and rubbed on my pinky toes.
Any suggestions for foot shaped shoes? I'd prefer some cushion like Altras and bonus if there's a business casual looking variety
Hello comrades! Friendly reminder that American leftists continue to be threatened by gun loving conservatives. You should know how to defend yourself and you should probably own a gun. Find an active SRA, John Brown Gun Club, or (if things are dire) pink pistols or other "apolitical" gun club.
I've been in the SRA for 4 years, it's not great, but I met comrades local to me. I've learned a lot from them and fash who post good firearms advice and I love to share that when I can.
Open for questions and I'll post more getting started stuff if this doesn't get banned.
Look I love my mom.
But one of us has a therapist and a taste for new interesting foods. The other has anger issues when the food isnt Banquet Turkey in gravy with boxed mash potatoes.
