Pm me if you feel like ripping your hair out and putting a whole in the wall with your face. Which I often did. I can try and help. Though there are probably better options

They’re the same thing.

Get he out lest he be ready to drop to your knees and gibe praise to the righteous AUR as it doth demand.

My old PC.

Its on proxmox but I’ve got an i7 8600k 18tb hard drive for frigate / nas, rtx2080ti because where else am I going to put it. 32gb ram. 1000 watt PSU.

Dude I wish. I’d love to be able to point you in the right direction but getting this all working for me was just the product.of determination and posts / videos from all over the place.

I can tell you that adding proxmox to the equation made things way more complicated. And that vlans are not intuitive.

My advice would be to just kind of go for it. I ended up needing a smart switch, a mul5i nic pace card, a regular switch, and two access points (you could get a vlan aware access point but I couldn’t find anything that made sense price wise).

The whole thing took days to set up. I frequently didn’t know why things weren’t working. It sucked.

You can pm me if you get stuck and I can try to give you a hand buy the frustrating truth I learned about the process was that I was kind of on my own since every set up is kind of unique based on your hardware.

I’m glad its done but doing it frankly sucked…

But how many football fields does it weigh?

Setting up a pfsense router / firewall virtualized in proxmox on my server PC with separate vlans for my iot devices and guest WiFi was tedious, time consuming, challenging, educational, and ultimately worth it. I’m not invincible buy at least I have fucking viability into what’s going on in my fucking home network.

You’re misunderstanding my use of the phrase.

I’m using it in the context or immersing in something you have no understanding of. I just dove right into and skipped most of the intro type stuff.

You’re using the phrase to talk about relative complexity / difficulty not how I’ve usually heard it used but it makes sense.

Like. Most people learning python start with hello world. I spent too many hours learning to own hot encode a 500gb dataset of reddit porn and tweak stylegan 3 a bit to train it on porn. None of which is remarkable objectively but there were a lot of very basic things I needed to learn to finish the task. That’s what I mean by jumping in the deep end - throwing yourself into something you are probably poorly or il equipped for and just figuring it out as you go.

There is a deep end of coding complexity of course, but, different kind of deep end.

I can’t do math for shit and I failed formal logic in uni. I’m not built for math. I just… Don’t care and can’t make myself care. I’ve taught myself python over the past year and amd have become fairly comfortable with bash. Which has weirdly helped me with python?

Anyway I’m not very good at either yet. And there are huge gaps in my knowledge. But I’m learning every day.

I’ve done it on my own, and dove right into the fucking deep end with it which is probably the hardest way. But if I can do it then anyone can. You just need to want it. Why do I want it? I have no idea. If go crazy doing it for a living.

Social media is a huge part of the problem…

Stop using social media and 90% of the internets issues stop affecting you.

Search is still fucked tho

I’m with you.

Local everything I possibly can.

I don’t want a huge influx of users. Lemmy is good. I like Lemmy. A flood of people enshitify it.

Amen. Everything google touches turns to shit. Everything.

But not sand memory. It’s coars ena drogjh and irritating and gets everywhere.

Are the legends really true?
