My adventures in Apple hardware https://eldapper.wordpress.com/2024/10/13/mac-pro-2013-2tb-nvme-and-128gb-ram-upgrade/
Look ma' now I have the proper amount of RAM to build packages in bulk!
TrashProBSD? What command gives you that status window? Looks like 'top' but with more goodies.
@countZZero TrashProBSD is the hostname. A play on words. The 2013 Mac Pro was colloquially called The Trashcan. The utility is a python app called "glances". what OS do you currently use?
I currently use Debian version 12. I haven't used BSD in years, but I always liked it. You need to lock something down TIGHT? Use BSD.
Wow, thanks for the link! I'm going to have another look at BSD, I think.
@countZZero https://www.theregister.com/2024/10/08/switching_from_linux_to_bsd/ Stefano is one amazing human.
Between 2001 and 2005, I had a FreeBSD box as a file server. It sat in a closet humming away quietly all that time. When I moved in '05 it was the last thing shut down. When I looked at uptime, It had never been restarted. Not once.
@countZZero FreeBSD is love. 💕 I have a ton of DNS servers that are perpetual machines. They do get updated to avoid malware but they never fail.
@countZZero This is the kind of content I came here to read ;)
Just read this. Boring is in fact good. No flashy crap, just good ol' stability.
@countZZero I am about to attempt to do this: https://gyptazy.com/run-linux-containers-on-freebsd-14-with-podman/ I need to run a few linux only docker container apps and maybe this could be the missing link, otherwise I have to create a new Alpine VM ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'd be interested in how all this goes. Post your results.
@countZZero I also got linux mariadb working
podman run -d --replace --name nginx-db --os=linux --network nginx-proxy-net -p 3306:3306 -v ~/nginx-proxy-manager/data/mysql:/var/lib/mysql -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=matu1234 -e MYSQL_DATABASE=nginxproxymanager -e MYSQL_USER=nginxproxymanager -e MYSQL_PASSWORD=matu1234 docker.io/jc21/mariadb-aria:latest
@countZZero https://github.com/nicolargo/glances I ditched Linux (almost completely) when the death CentOS was announced. And I don't regret a minute of it. Its been a nice journey meeting devs in the community who tend to be the kindest nicest people in tech.
