If you like divvy then you should check out Lasso. I was a die hard divvy user but slowly it has started to act funny on newer versions of macOS and Lasso is a spiritual successor as far as I am concerned.

I definitely thought I replied to this, ADHD sigh. That sucks about the therapist, hopefully your current one works out. If they are just against stimulants there are a few non-stimulant options to try now if you weren’t aware, maybe they would do that? Good luck :/

Yeah man, one of the T tests, I remember there being more than one type. My doctor suggested it when I felt like I was tired all the time and I was right below the lower end of the threshold and it has made all the difference.

I never would have thought to get it tested I figured I just wasn’t sleeping well but turns out that is part of why I wasn’t sleeping well. I remember it being cheap too I figured why not and I’m glad I did.

I also use an APAP, that is funny. I also get about 7 hours of sleep but tracking it with a smartwatch has been really interesting because I can definitely tell when I don’t get enough deep sleep from what it seems, very not scientific though haha.

Alright, one last thing, I know this isn’t the sleep community but I discovered there is a field of sleep dentistry on accident and that has been a really interesting journey. Turns out my jaw was too narrow and my tongue can’t suction to the roof of my mouth and that is partially what causes some of my apnea symptoms, it blew my mind. Anyway, just wanted to add that in case it helps you or someone else, good sleep is so important.

It sounds like you and I are pretty similar people and pretty close in age, have you had a sleep study done and had hormone levels checked and all of that recently?

I take meds for my ADHD (Vyvanse FTW), GAD, and Depression and they all work drastically better when I have quality sleep (not just number of hours, like % deep sleep) especially, like to the point that it feels like my ADHD meds aren’t working even when I take them if I don’t get good sleep.

Hormone levels being off really really makes my brain fog awful even with meds (and I have tried many different ones before discovering that) to the point that I started to question if they even did anything anymore since I have taken them for a while.

Just some thoughts, if your doctor isn’t doing what you need and you can find a different one then you definitely should, it took me 3 or so before finding ones that I actually like for what it’s worth.

I can’t think of any situation other than maybe wanting to get better indexing or changing the storage engine that I would need to re-create and re-insert that way so I’m not sure if you have a constraint that necessitates that or not but now I’m curious and I am always curious to find new or better methods so why do you do it that way?

At home to upgrade Postgres I would just make a temporary copy the data directory as a backup and then just change the version of the container and if it’s needed run pg_upgrade as jobs in kubernetes.

In a work environment there is more likely to be clustering involved so the upgrade path depends on that but it’s similar but there really isn’t a need to re-create the data, the new version starts with the same PVCs using whatever rollout strategy applies. Major version upgrades can sometimes require extra steps but the engine is almost always backwards compatible at least several versions.

You should most definitely make a MagicMirror with it and just orient the display so you don’t need to put content in the broken area.

Dang, great find, I keep my eye out but never see anything that cool in a dumpster.

ETA: Their site has a video example on it: https://magicmirror.builders

Oh that’s definitely on the list, I thought I saw someone else mention it facepalm

Are we talking database schema migrations or migrating a database between Postgres instances?

If it’s the former, the pattern is usually to run them in init containers or Jobs but I have been wanting to try out SchemaHero for a while which is a tool to orchestrate it and looks pretty neat.

ETA: Thought I was replying to your below comment but Memmy deleted it the first time for some reason, my bad.

I was about to post the same thing haha, he reminds me a bit of colinfruze but somehow less danger and fire.

Oh absolutely, I’m ashamed I didn’t mention it, I guess my brain was stuck on top down style hah. Satisfactory is incredible, they keep adding awesome stuff to it.

Captain Of Industry is a little daunting because it uses as close to real world processes as possible but Nilaus on YT has excellent videos on it (and many of the others mentioned). This is his playlist for the recent huge Update 1 for the game.

I also forgot to mention how good Cities: Skylines has become and how incredible Cities: Skylines 2 looks. I have learned so much about real cities from playing that and watching City Planner Plays play it and relate it to his real world job as a city planner.

I’ll second Timberborn, it seems like a simple game but it gets complicated towards the end.

If factory games are your jam then I can’t recommend Captian Of Industry and Dyson Sphere Program enough, both are S tier factory games for me. The Riftbreaker is another interesting combo of colony building and tower defense as well.

If you are attempting to use regex match on the package name I am pretty sure you need to use .* not just * as . represents any character except newline and * is 0 or more matches of the previous character in a regex. so your expression was looking for libnvidi with 0 or more a character which I don’t think is what you wanted and that might be why it didn’t work as expected. Cheers!

Are you using VLANs on your switch? Are you using the LAN or WAN port on the google device? As others have said, those two subnets do not overlap using /24 (255.255.255.0) so you would either need to use something like 192.168.0.0/17 that would cover both 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.86.0/24 but that is way overkill for most networks (192.168.0.0 - 192.168.127.255, 32766 hosts).

If you are having trouble understanding subnetting (or are like me and have a brain that refuses to learn any tricks to do it in your head) I highly recommend this really simple subnet calculator as it is very easy to see how you can divide subnets down from the RFC 1918 supernet (192.168.0.0/16) by clicking on "Divide" on the right side. In fact, that's pretty much the only subnet tool I use anymore, super quick and easy.

It might be easier to just disable DHCP on the google side (or configure it as a DHCP relay if you can) and just use one subnet from OPNSense.

If you are not able to disable DHCP on the google side then I would set up a VLAN for the google wifi device and then create a VLAN interface in the 192.168.86.0/24 subnet that DHCP won't use (like 192.168.86.2) and configure DHCP to use that for the gateway. This will then allow you to route between your two networks internally and to the internet (firewall permitting, obviously). If your switch does not allow VLANs then you could use another physical interface on the firewall and connect that to the LAN port on the google wifi device and do the same thing for the same result.

I hope all of that makes sense, please do ask for clarification if not, I do this kind of stuff every day and love teaching it so fire away.

Yeah the long test does a surface inspection and checks all of the sectors so it will take a while, you can run it in the background though and it might default to that.

Do backup important data though as if it is in fact failing the extra I/O might tip it over the edge, can’t be too careful.

If it was me, I would probably run fsck and reboot the first time in case it was a fluke and then investigate the drive if it happens repeatedly.

If you are worried about it’s age, the SMART will also tell you the power on hours of the drive, that’s the age that matters (well, and TB written sometimes). Each manufacturer has different mean time between failure ratings depending on the type of drive as well, you can also check backblaze data sometimes.

Hope that helps!

I can’t quite tell from the photo but I f you aren’t using any glue try using some magigoo or something, seems counterintuitive I know but it helps it release from my experience.

I would also heat your bed up to as high as it will go (I don’t have an wonder but 70 or 80 or something) which will soften the PLA and probably make it easier to get off, that has always helped me in the past.

As others have said and from what I have read it’s less a problem with the plastic and more about the inability to clean the small gaps between layers on the surface giving bacteria a place to grow that ends up being the bigger issue.

That said Fillimentium makes this PLA blend that is both recyclable/biodegradable and dishwasher safe so you can reuse it (at least according to the rep I talked to at a fest). Thanks for reminding me I have a sample I need to try out around here hah!

Did you run a short or long SMART test? How old is the drive? Usually those errors are the beginnings a failing drive in my experience unless you are doing mass I/O (like TB/s) and it can’t update the filesystem meta fast enough for some reason.

I have a couple friends like this over the past few years that I just built their server and taught them how to install updates on the terminal (or write a maintenance script for them to run) and how to open a port if I need to fix something remotely and it has been great.

Also, Depending on the user once it’s set up I usually recommend either Portainer or Cockpit are more than enough with watchtower to keep things up to date. If that is too much I usually just suggest a Synology/qnap or TrueNAS/unRAID for roll your own.

ETA: Cockpit also has a web based terminal and can execute package manager updates as well.

I’ll second this, it’s a great thing to have around and there is always something to tinker this. It’s basically a new hobby though if you like automation and monitoring things so budget your time and money accordingly haha.

I know someone else said this but I would just get an i5 with a iGPU, I also have an 8000 series i5 and when it was new I did some load testing and it could do 5-10 transcodes at a time no problem.

ETA: Even a NUC with an iGPU is great, I have several friends doing that.
