Last time they’ll ever do that! Pass the buck of hosting web-facing Plex servers onto somebody else.

I’m guessing Steam decided against being able to leave your games to somebody else when you die because of how most EULAs I’ve read work: they are often non-transferrable licence and so in most cases the store has no choice in the matter. Now GOG are willing to say they will do what they can given this limitation, but I can see why Steam wouldn’t: it’s a whole lot of work for realistically not much benefit. It’s probably easier for Valve to gift the same games over to the new person.

Adding to this: doesn’t CAD usually want 3D acceleration? I would definitely try running the CAD software with the same VM configuration you plan to use in your Proxmox VPS first before progressing to make sure it (a works at all and b) is responsive enough. You could even try nesting Proxmox in Proxmox to emulate the kind of performance you’d had on a VPS.

For reference, the 1TB Steamdeck OLED at Gamesmen is $450 AUD more than what Valve will be selling it at. Unless I’m mistaken, Gamesmen are the only retailer selling the Steamdeck online that isn’t a marketplace (such as Big W), so Gamesmen is probably the best place to but at the moment since they will be forced to take on any warranty claims unlike resellers on marketplaces which may able to just dodge that by closing up shop.

SnipeIT just cares about serial numbers, models and manufacturers (you can just use a serial number in the asset tag section) for assets and I think consumables drop a bunch of those requirements. You might be able to put groceries under consumables? I’m less familiar with consumables in SnipeIT to be honest.

SnipeIT is really good and supports SSO including via LDAP.

They don’t need to be interested though. You could conceivably dump all the password you collect in an attack and just start trying them automatically like you would any other breach. Find a bunch of bank accounts and your chances you getting away with millions are high. Not to mention: a breach like this means changing all your saved passwords to re-secure them which is a multi-day affair.

Self-hosting removes the risk of somebody compromising Bitwarden’s servers and adding malicious javascript to send off your master password to a bad actor instead of just processing it locally like it’s designed to.

I don’t think ZFS can do anything for you if you have bad memory other than help in diagnosing. I’ve had two machines running ZFS where they had memory go bad and every disk in the pool showed data corruption errors for that write and so the data was unrecoverable. Memory was later confirmed to be the problem with a Memtest run.

What distro and version of that distro are you using? Did you install gpg from the repository or elsewhere? What version of gpg are you running?

I visited Usti nad Labem back in June while in Europe after being inspired by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VLhCNEpcPO4 and https://www.reddit.com/r/dayz/comments/5dldfi/chernarus_real_life_map_with_in_game_locations/ and figured I'd post my photos here in case it inspires somebody else!

The link goes to a gallery of almost all the videos and photos I took while there as well as some videos. You can click on the map icon (to the right of the title at the top-left) to see every photo on a map. The Arma 2/DayZ locations can be found at https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1EJNBRC6X6C2P6Q1MGrsOb8Zynt4&ll=50.71286861566866%2C14.120705128839054&z=12 (posted in the Reddit link above).

Unfortunately the videos can't be put on a map, so here goes!:

  • The first 3 videos (IMG_5980, IMG_5981) are the train ride from Decin (around Rify) to Usti nad Labem (roughly Balota airfield).
  • IMG_5987 and IMG_5995 are at Usti nad Labem station.
  • IMG_6043 is at the east-most part of Usti nad Labem (roughly Balota airfield) near the river.
  • IMG_6255 is the road between Usti nad Labem-Nestmice (Cherno) and Mirkov (Mogilevka)
  • IMG_6259 is at Zricenina hradu Blansko (Zub castle).
  • IMG_6274 is a drive between Mirkov (Mogilevka) to Slavosov (Novy Sobor).
  • IMG_6282 is a drive between Slavosov (Novy Sobor) and Lipova (Stary Sobor)
  • IMG_6292 is a drive from Lipova (Stary Sobor) to Statek Libov (Rogovo), Radesin (Pogorevka) and the intersection between Chuderov (Zelenogork), Green Mountain, Radesin (Pogorevka) and Chuderov - Sovolusky (Pulkovo).
  • IMG_6404 is a drive from Javory (Gorka) to Malsovice (Berezino).
  • IMG_6468 is a drive from Jilove (Gvozdno) to Krasny Studenec (Krasnostav). Turns out this isn't a paved road like it is in the game, and nor is (at least some) of the road between Krasny Studenec (Krasnostav) to Stara Bohyne (Dubrovka). We didn't go down this road though.
  • IMG_6469 is a drive through Krasny Studenec (Krasnostav).
  • IMG_6493 is a drive along the river and Malsovice (Berezino).
  • IMG_6494 is around Malsovice (Berezino).
  • IMG_6496 and IMG_6497 are a drive from Malsovice (Berezino) to the dam at Povrly (Elektro) via Borek (Orlovets) and Hlinena (Polana), Dobkovice (Solnichniy) and Roztoky (Kamyshovo).
  • IMG_6522 is a drive from the dam at Povrly (Elektro) to Masovice (Pusta).

Do you have any memories that spring to mind when you see old wallpapers?

  • The green rolling hills of XP remind me of when I started using computers, watching Insider Secrets on CNET and downloading everything that appeared on download.com, then trying to make Windows XP look like Vista
  • Vista’s of when I installed every possible custom theme imaginable and spent half the time rebooting from BSODs while trying to play Zombie Escape in CSS
  • Windows 7 of what felt like peak Windows and when I got my first gaming PC and the joys of Bootcamp (never forget the Windows 7 Beta fish wallpaper),
  • Mac OS Leopards wallpaper of my first Mac,
  • Ubuntu 9.04: The classic Ubuntu where I had no idea what I was doing and I had no idea how to get Wi-Fi and sound to work,
  • Ubuntu 10.04 of when I first started running Minecraft servers and using Linux, not to forget glorious GNOME 2,
  • Debian 6 of when I started learning Debian and the fun that was trying use PPAs and custom repos on Apt and running servers in VirtualBox,
  • Mac OS Mavericks: Nice network share, would be a shame if it stopped responding and you had to reboot… again,
  • Windows 8 (not 8.1)… I don’t actually remember these . I used a screenshot from DayZ looking down at Elektro back when I ran Windows 8 consumer preview and the release candidate.
