Is the other half Hand Tool Rescue?

I read some article or saw some video claiming that explorer was basically a react app now, which is why unlocking the screen takes 3.5 business days when you enter the correct password.

Thanks for the write-up! I’ve been trying and failing to do DOOD and POOP runners via forgejo, but I haven’t had the time or energy to really dig in and figure out the issue. At this point I just want something to work so I’ll give your setup a try 😎

please share, I’m interested in doing the same

How hilarious would it be if the AMD board member was the one who veto’d the driver 😅

Auditing the code it produces is basically the only effective way to use coding LLMs at this point.

You’re basically playing the role of senior dev code reviewing and editing a junior dev’s code, except in this case the junior dev randomly writes an amalgamation of mostly valid, extremely wonky, and/or complete bullshit code. It has no concept of best practices, or fitness for purpose, or anything you’d expect a junior dev to learn as they gain experience.

Now given the above, you might ask yourself: “Self, what if I myself don’t have the skills or experience of a senior dev?” This is where vibe coding gets sketchy or downright dangerous: if you don’t notice the problems in generated code, you’re doomed to fail sooner or later. If you’re lucky, you end up having to do a big refactoring when you realize the code is brittle. If you’re unlucky, your backend is compromised and your CTO is having to decide whether to pay off the ransomware demands or just take a chance on restoring the latest backup.

If you’re just trying to slap together a quick and dirty proof of concept or bang out a one-shot script to accomplish a task, it’s fairly useful. If you’re trying to implement anything moderately complex or that you intend to support for months/years, you’re better off just writing it yourself as you’ll end up with something stylistically cohesive and more easily maintainable.

As someone who has been shoved in the direction of using AI for coding by my superiors, that’s been my experience as well. It’s fine at cranking out stackoverflow-level code regurgitation and mostly connecting things in a sane way if the concept is simple enough. The real breakthrough would be if the corrections you make would persist longer than a turn or two. As soon as your “fix-it prompt” is out of the context window, you’re effectively back to square one. If you’re expecting it to “learn” you’re gonna have a bad time. If you’re not constantly double checking its output, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Yes, if you’re going to run TrueNAS (or another solution based on ZFS) you should really get rid of the PERC and get an LSI SAS card in IT mode so that the system can see the raw disks.

When you start your SATA swap, either use the onboard SATA ports (if there are enough) or get a SATA card (more ports, probably slightly better performance than sharing the onboard controller) and start the process I described before.

Yes, you’re going to want to get SATA drives that are the same size or bigger than your SAS drives. The mini-sas will break out into 4x sas connectors but you don’t have to swap 4 at a time; disconnect one SAS drive from the SAS breakout cable and then connect one replacement SATA drive to the SATA backplane (either the one on your motherboard or to a SATA card if you don’t have enough mobo ports). Do a zfs scrub. Once it’s finished with no errors, repeat all three steps. Once all drives are off the SAS card and your final scrub is done you can remove the SAS card entirely.

For this use case there’s not really an advantage using SAS over SATA. I’d suggest buying SATA drives in the future just because you don’t need a SAS card for them, and SATA drives are usually cheaper.

If you use the H700 for hardware RAID and switch to SATA later, your best bet is probably to copy the data over (or better, use the opportunity to test your backup/restore process).

If you could run the SAS disks in JBOD mode (which is possible if you sell the H700 and use another SAS card), you could set up your drives in a RAIDZ1 mode and later switch to SATA drives by replacing one drive at a time and doing a scrub between each swap.

This is a PERC H700 which does not support IT mode (even if you cross-flash to an LSI firmware).

You could use that card as-is but for truenas I’d suggest grabbing a proper SAS card. I got one off ebay (LSI 9207) for about USD$35 already flashed and ready to go.

what if I use ip and netstat?

Can confirm, this is my setup and it works great.

The FUTO guide is extremely detailed, accurate, and accessible. It does not always follow best practices, and it’s not a comprehensive guide to all of the possibilities for self-hosting. It’s not trying to be. It is a guide for someone with no technical expertise (but with basic technical ability) to degoogle/deapple themselves at a reasonable level of cost and effort.

You do not have to do everything in the list, you can pick and choose the parts you’re interested in. That said, I would recommend reading through the whole article as you have time, because it does a very good job of explaining the concepts involved in building a self-hosted setup, and understanding how everything works is the biggest step toward being able to effectively troubleshoot problems when they inevitably crop up.

If you have specific questions about things that aren’t answered in the guide or via a quick web search, post them here.

I always found this argument funny because how would you use pronouns for someone whose gender you do not know? They. It’s they. E.g. you are given the sentence: Jordan went to the store to buy apples. And you want to ask a followup question regarding how many, you reply: How many apples did they buy?

And that’s not how English was taught to me or 99℅ of the population (including English as a second or third language) 20+ years ago. Singular they was only used for situations where the gender (read as superficially visible sex) was factually unknown. You see a forgotten umbrella and never saw who forgot it: “Somebody forgot their umbrella.” As soon as you only got a glimpse on the person forgetting it you would make a guess about he/she.

You’re contradicting yourself here. You’re saying you were taught to use singular they when gender is unknown, yet claim that “How may apples did they buy” is wrong based on how you were taught English.

Does it matter whether gender is unknown or just unresolved? Not really, singular they is clearly intended to be a gender neutral pronoun and works in any situation where gender is ambiguous. It’s not wrong for people to adopt it as a pronoun to refer to themselves any more than it is for a trans man to adopt “he/his” or a trans woman to adopt “she/hers.”

At best your refusal to use it makes you sound like one of those people who gets offended at the word “literally” gaining a colloquial meaning that differs from its original definition. At worst, it presents as transphobia to claim “language purity” as the reason to be so adamantly against something that the trans community has largely adopted.

Thank you for the detailed write up. I’m going to give this a shot and see if I can save myself some space.
