Yeah, it’s /etc/pve/corosync.conf you can set quorum votes to 2 for a device. But it’s easy to get the file overwritten. Link

Or you can use pvecm expected 1 on both hosts or pvecm --votes 2 on one device.

Waking up in the bag is a known problem with Windows’ new sleep mode but the rest ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

OpenMediaVault! It has a nice web UI and it’s Debian based. However the development cycle doesn’t always line up with Debian releases so sometimes it can take a few months to switch major versions.

Watch porn. But seriously what do you need that much storage for.

I currently use gandi but I’m planning on moving to cloudflare. Not in too much of a rush since I did a 10 year lease.

Yeah I upgraded my Odroid and ran into some issues with Armbian but I was able to work through it thanks to this post. I guess Armbian broke the repos a little and it prevented OMV from cleanly auto updating with the script.

AdGuard Home and blocky are other popular options. I switched over to AdGuard Home a while back because it supported DNS over HTTPS although I’m not sure if that’s still a relevant reason. I run AGH as a docker container but it is easy to run in a LXC or VM. There’s also a tool to sync configs if you need multiple instances. Notice: AGH block lists are formatted like uBlock Origin lists so you will not be able to use PiHole style lists.

DNS based ad blockers won’t work when ads are served from the same place as the content. Which is why DNS based ad blockers don’t work against Twitch or YouTube. So YMMV.

If you’re looking to block interface ads and select streaming service ads there are block lists available like this one. The game with smart TVs is blocking the ads breaks the TV a little because sometimes it calls back to the same servers for updates and misc info like weather.

Let’s make a petition. Kernel version 6.9.420 must be free!

Yeah, but with a light workload (browsing, some videos, office applications). It lasts longer than Windows where I get like 5 hours.

Kinda true though. I wish Framework would focus on power usage a bit. As much as I love the concept and laptop the battery life is not one of its strong points. I’ve done a lot of tuning and squeeze about 6-7 hrs out at ~40% screen brightness.

IIRC framework is working on addressing the expansion card issue via firmware/BIOS but it’s been a while since I’ve seen any updates.

I generally lose 20-40% battery overnight with USBC and USBA in deep sleep mode. But I have set up hibernate in the past and had it working.

See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_management/Suspend_and_hibernate

You’re probably missing a swap position or file. Modern Linux distro don’t really support hibernate out of the box.

Also depending on ports you can have worse sleeping power draw. All USB C will give you the best battery life.

Not OP but I’m looking forward to a really insignificant bug fix. When I open a context menu on my second monitor that uses a different scaling it flickers and the background drops out. It’s just visual and I almost never use that context menu but knowing it’s there bothers me. Per the bug report I filed it was planned to be resolved with the other Wayland fixes in v6.

Can’t they just do this by switching to a TTY? (Ctrl + alt + F1, F2…) Might be less work than chrooting.

Anecdotally I’ve been dual booting Windows 11/Linux on my laptop for a couple years and I’ve never had issues with Windows affecting the boot partition and I feel like this is much less common with EFI. You can even have a separate EFI partition for Linux and choose boot order from the BIOS.

I’ve always done partition based dual booting since I first started using Linux and the last time I remember having an issue with Windows fucking with boot setup was like early/mid 2010s and it’s only happened a couple times in like 10 years of on and off dual booting.

Sounds like this guy compiz cubes

I got into Linux because I used a shitty Acer laptop in middle school and I couldn’t stand how slow it was. Somehow I ended up stumbling on some article or video about Linux being faster and installed Ubuntu WUBI (I think that’s what it was called, it let you install Ubuntu in Windows). Then I found myself on IRC and became a distrohopper for a few years.

When I was younger I was probably obsessed and proselytized a bit but not so much anymore. An OS is just a tool and people should use what works best for them to solve the problems they have at the time.

But I still daily drive Linux so I guess it’s my preferred tool.

It’s not very expandable and very underpowered but I’ve been using an Odroid HC-4 with Armbian and a separate compute server for a while. It’s a decent budget option.
