What do you want to run in a VM that can’t run in Docker?
a VM with torrent client and a killswitched VPN was the easiest way to get a secure setup. also meant if it ever got virused I could just roll it back. I need to look more into what docker can actually do by the looks of it.
You are the second person to suggest unraid - is it ok to sit on the perpetual license (for a few years at a time), or are the updates really required? It supports GPU passthrough right, so I can have a 'normal' linux desktop for gaming while running the other stuff in the background?
oooh, TY! Now to guess which ones will still be maintained in 5 years 😆
I guess I must as well have a play with some stuff like jellyfin to see if its useful. The 'server' in this case would have a 6 year old GPU in it, so should hopefully have enough grunt.
ah sorry, my new ISP gave me a router, but it doesn't have any VPN functionality on it (Edited OP to make that clear). My old one probably can't support the speed, and for some reason doesn't let me change its MAC address, so I can't use it as the ISP facing device.
That's some nice documentation - way overkill for what I need though.
Out of interest - Why is the VPS required, and why the mention of a non residential IP address? Could that not all be hosted locally if your ISP has given you a static IP address?
The cross licensing deal between AMD & Intel collapses if one gets bought out. Here is an old article that's probably still accurate that describes it. (Has some great quotes that have not aged well....)
If that's still true, a buyout might end up killing x86/x64 in favour of arm etc.
I also don't think trump would agree without relocating TSMCs HQ to the US or something. Competition is good anyway, we really don't want to be in a situation where there is only one fab company with anywhere near too tech.
Do you know what the signal bar on a phone actually represents? My commute has quite a few areas with good (full or almost full) 'signal' but with the no internet exclamation mark.
That's why I have assumed it's a bandwidth to the mast problem.
Ultimately, phone networks are not built to cope with commuter trains ☹️
I think they were trying to make the point that we HAD faster speeds, but it was discovered that most people didn't really need it and were happy paying less to go slower. They are comparing this to 6G, sure, some will use it, but for most it will be a needless expense.
On the actual supersonic air travel point - eh, is it really needed considering the massive extra energy required?
You want them all in one place so that they can be uploaded in one go to your fitness tracking site. That lets you see what your HR, power and cadence all where on that specific hill for example.
I used to have a Fitbit that used my phone for GPS and it was awful and drained the batteries on both devices. I guess the idea of having 5G is that you don't actually take your phone with you, one less thing to have to force into your pockets.
I have more issues with the fact that I have no usable signal on 1/3 of my commute (closer to 2/3 unusable tuesday-wednesday!) than issues with peak speed.
The R&D money would be better spent laying fibre to phone masts. I suspect it will be spent on dividends instead though ☹️
Edit: unless more research is required to increase users/mast? It's fine in cities, so I'm assuming it more a bandwidth to the mast issue?

TY for the response!
