  • You may not have to do a disk clone to replicate your setup. Have you used Git before?

    Configuration for most packages is stored under your home folder in a directory called “.config” (the . at the front makes the folder hidden). Taking this folder and putting it on your other systems should replicate most of your setup. (Some other packages, like bash or zsh, will place configuration information directly under your home folder. Make sure you transfer those files and folders too)

  • It depends.

    My personal servers are a mix of the two. I have a Synology NAS that I manage through a web-based GUI. Sometimes I’ll dip into command line via SSH, but not very often.

    I have two more lower-power Linux servers that I manage through command-line primarily. They don’t have many system resources, so I want them to have as much available as possible to serve things.

    Windows servers I use GUI management most of the time

  • Yeah. I agree with ya there, Red Hat screwed over Alma and Rocky with that decision. I can see the utility of those two distros for testing before committing to RHEL.

    Plus, if Oracle has room to try to be the “good guys”, you’ve really screwed up

  • IBM will still sell you a brand new, updated mainframe in 2023.

    They’re also in the open source software space (IBM owns Red Hat, a software company that has a lot of projects for Linux. Red Hat has their own Linux distro too)

  • I run Outline. Originally I was looking for a drop in Notion replacement, but it isn’t quite there yet.

    I still run it because the stack was a bear to deploy, so I wanna get some use out of the product (Redis, Outline itself, Postgres, and MinIO or AWS). It is a good product, it’s just lacking some features that I use in Notion

  • The fact that Thunderbolt is involved makes me wonder if it’s something to do with the Linux kernel not liking Intel’s thunderbolt implementation. At this point I’m reaching the limits of my know-how, so I don’t have much more to suggest

  • Aha! We’re getting somewhere!

    A quick Google shows that OEM kernel 5.6 has been reported to cause some form of freezing issue.

    The reason I asked about Windows is because I wanted to rule out a hardware issue. My thinking was if we didn’t see any freezing in Windows, it was a software issue. If we did, it would point to hardware.
