The generally don’t containerize things because I’m too old and crusty, but segregating over several users is basically how it’s been done for ages, and while it may not be particularly useful in your case, I consider it a reasonable best practice that costs you nothing.

bash setup/config/PS1 is your friend here. I frequently find myself with a myriad of terminals between a bunch of usernames and servers at work, and setting up a proper prompt is key to help you keep track.

My bashrc makes my prompt look like this:

username@hostname:/absolute/path
$ inputgoeshere

… with color coding, of course. Yes, I use a multiline prompt. I somehow never saw that before using ParrotSec despite being a bash user for 25 years. I modified the ParrotSec default to suit my needs better, and I like it:

• Obvious which user I am.
• Obvious which host I’m on.
• Obvious which path I’m in.
• It’s easy to copy and paste a complete source/destination for pasting into, for example, an rsync comman

I pasted my PS1 config here: https://pastebin.com/ZcYwabfB

Stick that line near the bottom of your ~/.bashrc file if you want to try it out.

Those are directory listings. They are the default in apache2 (maybe others as well… I only know apache2), unless disabled or disallowed in the configs (enabled and allowed by default). If the directory you’re accessing such as http://192.168.123.123/somedir/ does not contain a default file, such as an index.html, the directory list will be served instead.

I for one would definitely download a car, if I did not already own one I really like.

I’d happily let’s others download mine, if it didn’t affect me or my car in any way.

Some nuance I read recently: The argument from above is basically that they want Ai research to continue as it has national security value. Therefore, any limitations or regulations to AI research should only happen on a federal level.

The idea is that all states should share the same playing field so that any researchers do not have to treat states differently.

It’s way too late at night for me to give an in-depth answer, but I just wanted to let you know that if you plan on adding drives over time, you might want to check out running the disks in JBOD instead of RAID and the use ZFS to create the storage volume. Redundancy supported, and you can add disks whenever you need more space. The disks don’t even have to be the same size.

The Francoin is doing poorly in the crypto markets.

Imagine if earlier fascists were as corrupt with conflicts of interests. Maybe we could call via the Adolfone.

Thank you. I help where I can.

I was considering something similar for my Volvo 940 about around 2010. The idea was that I’d install a touch screen as an infotainment system where I could see stuff like OBD2 data and navigation.

While not having a functioning speedometer for a little bit (later fixed), I used my phone to see the GPS speed with the screen flipped so I could get the speed on the windshield like a HUD in some modern cars. The plan was to do something similar integrated with the home brewed infotainment.

It annoys me that I never went through with it, because so much stuff of what I’d drawn up became standard for “fancy” cars later.

Pssst, take these: .,

I liked Java a lot more before Oracle acquired Sun. I’ve used Oracle databases enough to hate Oracle with the passion of a supernova.

Anything that does the job is good enough. At its core a server is just a regular PC with a dedicated purpose and software. Sure, there are specialized hardware better suitable and purpose built, but it’s not a requirement.

I for one prefer 19" rackmount stuff with disk bays in the front, but that’s more of a convenience than anything.

UPS is nice, but it’ll work without it.

I’ve had to deal with the Brazilian computer market and how it’s ridiculously overpriced due to import fees, so in your situation I’d just get any hand-me-down computer. Servers generally don’t require much unless you’re doing something special or intensive.

Get your hands on whatever you can find for free or dirt cheap (laptop or desktop doesn’tmatter), install linux, and you have a basic setup that you can work with. If your use case requires more, then that’s something you can accommodate in the next iteration of your server.

Any system beyond a vanilla install will need some tweaks to fit your use case(s). And these tweaks often end up as a stack of glass boxes over time, unless meticulously planned and purpose built from the beginning.

As long as it’s manageable and secure, don’t let “perfect” be the enemy of “operational”.

Wanting to rebuild from scratch is pretty common. The question is whether you need to and should. You have to weigh cost and work hours up against any benefits to figure out the answer.

No, just one. You set up one device/server as a VPN gateway (often called VPN concentrator), and you will have access to anything the concentrator has access to on your home network.

Either you just your VPN concentrator as your jump box, or you set up routing and firewalls to be able to access them directly.

I have no experience with OMV specifically, but generally making things accessible from outside your house means exposing it ti the internet.

However, what you can do is to only expose an openvpn port, so that to gain access as if you were at home you could connect via o0envpn first.

rsync if it’s a from/to I don’t need very often

More common transfer locations are done via NFS
