    AMD RX 7800 with the baked in drivers. I’ve tried the Amdpro drivers as well. The only way I can get the manager to run is calling it with sudo from CLI. Trying to start from the menu yields nothing :/ I just setup my VM and started crunching world community grid, so at least I’m back in it for now

    I am using the official repos. I tried their installer as well as the package on the Discover Software Store. The manager just doesn’t show up, and sometimes it affects my graphics (makes it low res all of a sudden). I think my best bet is to make a VM and maybe do some GPU pass through if I feel like crunching with GPU

    I am insanely jealous of you. Playing with people you know is just on a different level. My highschool friends showed up at my house with a Burning Crusade Disc they bought me, forced me to install and play with them, then I got hooked and they all quit :')

    Maybe one day the kiddo will play with me.

    After Reddit changed their upvoting to not be a 1:1 (meaning 1 upvote means 1 person liked it), I kind of started wanting to move away. It made it really hard to track how popular something is vs how promoted it is.

    I listened to the interview of Apollo’s dev, and the interviewer brought up a good point (the only good point I’ve heard on the other side of this). Natural language models are becoming very popular, and lots of companies are building them. To do this, they are scraping the web, and especially places like Reddit. It sounds like Reddit wants to capitalize on this by increasing their API’s to these (absurdly) high prices.








  • I’m getting about ~800-900 Mbps down and ~15 up (a bit more than what I pay for). I did notice that when I saturate the sownly speeds, my CPU will max out and I’ll start getting latency spikes to the point where the traffic stops on the network.

    After looking into it and adding a buffer bloat rule/ limiter, I’m not having any issues. I guess that’s the price of running IDS on 7 VLAN interfaces, but it’s getting by. When I go 10Gbe I will definitely pick something a little more capable, but it’s great for 1 Gbe




    • Protectli microappliance running pfsense with all my VLANS/ DDNS/ IDS and OpenVPN to connect home
    • Some cheap Tp link 1Gbe managed switch (next on the upgrade list)
    • RS1221+ 8 bay NAS with 60TB raw (used to hold media to serve Jellyfin as well as Proxmox VM backups)
    • Intel NUC running proxmox (Home assistant/ Jellyfin/ Pihole/ Whoogle, etc)
    • TP Link EAP 660HD AP (most recent upgrade, and very happy with it, previously had been using OpenWRT/ Luci on a R7800)

    Also hoping to get a server style UPS soon, which reminds me, I have to go check if there’s a homelabsales community here :)
