I have HA on a separate VLAN from IoT devices and have set up mDNS reflection so it can find them.

Control-A and E should work in insert mode. That’s why OP mentions pressing escape before issuing the normal mode ^ and $ commands.

In insert mode, some or most of the EMacs-style shortcuts work.

I have the non-GRE version of that GPU. It always says it’s throttling but I’ve learnt not to give that much thought. The temps are always good and frame rate doesn’t seem to suffer so it doesn’t seem to be throttled.

It would be very very arbitrary of Steam to bar a game based on the language it’s written on.

It’s not just that. I’m a techie. I’ve been in the industry for decades. I know my way around computer very well.

I want to like Jellyfin and I want to ditch Plex (even though I have a lifetime license) because of what it has become and where it’s headed.

That said, the other day my Plex server had some issues that took me a while to figure out. Since when it failed I just wanted to watch an episode of a series and relax, I once again fired up the JF client. I couldn’t get seek to work, I had to manually find and download subtitles (that’s not always the case but when it is, it’s pretty annoying), and ultimately I couldn’t watch my series at all as playback would randomly stop, the player would close and I’d be back at the menu, without the position having been recorded and with no way to fast-forward as seek didn’t work at all.

I ended up spending 15min figuring out what was wrong and fixing Plex, then watched my series undisturbed.

Like I said, I want to drop Plex for JF, but in the 3 years or so that I’ve been running both, every time I fire up JF I end up running back to Plex as I just want to sit back and watch a bloody series or movie.

It will be so fast, you’ll see the results of your commands before you issue them.

Bath water … baby ?

I mean, the logical step is to go to Debian sid, which, despite its alternative name unstable, is really not. I’ve been running a gaming rig on it for over a year with nothing more than vey vey minor hiccups, mostly because I’m impatient and run apt full-upgrade frequently.

HDR shines the most on OLED. Pun not intended. 😅

On servers, I agree. OP just wants a recent version of GIMP though. Production can mean many things, and dogmas are never the answer.

You can always use APT Pinning to grab GIMP and its dependencies from testing without touching the rest of the system.

Or you can just run testing or sid as your base system. My gaming rig is based on testing but pulling Mesa and video derivers from experimental and sid and I haven’t had any issues with it. Been running it for about 2 years now this way.

The public keys can be stored anywhere, it doesn’t matter. That’s why they’re called public: because they’re not private, they’re not sensitive, they’re not a secret.

They could be, but 2M new Brazilian users after Twitter’s block there actually seems quite low and definitely credible.

Ah NFS… It’s so good when it works! When it doesn’t though, figuring out why is like trying to navigate someone else’s house in pitch dark.

That makes zero sense. Where did you get that idea from?

For reference, here are their docs describing key management. https://tailscale.com/blog/tailscale-key-management

I found Tailscale to be easier to install and configure than ZeroTier, and also to have better performance.

I have never used Twingate.

Hey! Sorry you had these bad experiences.

My setup is on Debian testing and is documented on this blog post: https://blog.c10l.cc/09122023-debian-gaming

I don’t have an Nvidia card but other than that, this should give you a head start, including virtual surround on headphones if that’s your thing!

I promise it’s not a lot of work and I tried to make it all easy to follow (feedback welcome though!).

If you decide to give it a go, let me know how it went!

I’ve been using glauth + Authelia for a couple years with no issues and almost zero maintenance.

Yes, absolutely. Ideally there would be an automated check that runs periodically and alerts if things don’t work as expected.

Monitoring if the backup task succeeded is important but that’s tue easy part of ensuring it works.

A backup is only working if it can be restored. If you don’t test that you can restore it in case of disaster, you don’t really know if it’s working.

Ah got it. I didn’t know there was a free tier!
