Uh. OpnSense on bare metal can also do snapshots, if you set it up correctly…
Is this the greatest game ever written?
No. It’s just a tribute.


And that’s the fault of whoever uses those hubs. You can use practically any zigbee hub you wish. Zigbee is zigbee.


You didn’t look very hard.
Cheap zigbee stuff exists everywhere. And zigbee is an open standard, so if it works, it will work until the equipment breaks.
The Linux kernel isn’t really much different between any distribution of Linux.
If it works on one, it works on the rest, in like 99% of cases.
The only real exception to that is custom distributions built specifically for a particular device or subset of devices.
In other words, for embedded devices, like phones, routers, TVs and such.
And those aren’t going to be running Ubuntu.


In my own experience, certain things should always be on their own dedicated machines.
My primary router/firewall is on bare metal for this very reason.
I do not want to worry about my home network being completely unusable by the rest of my family because I decided to tweak something on the server.
I could quite easily run OpnSense in a VM, and I do that, too. I run proxmox, and have OpnSense installed and configured to at least provide connectivity for most devices. (Long story short: I have several subnets in my home network, but my VM OpnSense setup does not, as I only had one extra interface on that equipment, so only devices on the primary network would work)
And tbh, that only exists because I did have a router die, and installed OpnSense into my proxmox server temporarily while awaiting new-to-me equipment.
I didn’t see a point in removing it. So it’s there, just not automatically started.


My reasons for keeping OpnSense on bare metal mirror yours. But additionally I don’t want my network to take a crap because my proxmox box goes down.
I constantly am tweaking that machine…


Spoons made me fat!


Lidarr + last.fm recommended list.
Kensington TB550 thumb trackball for any pointy/clicky stuff, keyboard otherwise.
I don’t like a real mouse, and haven’t for decades.
I got my first thumb trackball in the 1990s when I didn’t have a big enough desk to use a mouse. It was a Logitech Trackman Marble.
Then I got a Marble Wheel. Then the cordless one, then the M570 that replaced it.
But Logitech build quality has really went into the shitter, and after a warranty replacement, and then having to buy another replacement, I tried a couple of different thumb trackballs before settling on my Kensington one.
The ProtoArc EM01 I have is also nice, but I like the feel of the Kensington better.


Obfuscation.
Nothing is truly unhackable. The difficulty lies in being unable to undo/retry any failed attempts because you don’t have an easy way to read or write to the hardware once you’ve done it wrong.
Which means if your attempt fails, this probably just means that you’re throwing the device away since you can’t fix it without access


Sounds like all you want to do is complain. You have been given numerous options, and none of them are acceptable.


Neon.
I have a few smart playlists set up that are each various genres of music. It’s not perfect, but it works well enough.

Not sure just how you want me to show it, but this how my music is, on the drive(s)
du -hd1 | grep Music
3.0T ./Music
I have about 85k tracks. :)

See where it says “Files” ?
You’re complaining about a player feature, and blaming the server.
I use Symfonium and Navidrome, and I absolutely can browse my Navidrome library by folder if I wanted to.
Is this local only, or will it play from a selfhosted server like navidrome/lms ?
