You're comparing this guys runaway success with a company with several development teams, office spaces, marketing teams, accountants, probably janitors, security, etc, etc.

That's sorta the point tho, isn't it. Not saying Capcom should be one guy in a bedroom, but maybe there's alot of bloat not related to actual game development that could be streamlined/cut. Esp. When it comes to executives.

Yep. All the time

Didn't say it was.

Because I'm curious?

🤯 Tho I suppose the customer facing side of the house would be so be sizeable for something as big as Fortnite.

I have a hard time wrapping my brain around it taking 7700 people to create a game engine. But I'm not in that industry and have no idea what's involved.

how many employees should they have?

No idea, that's why I asked. I wasn't aware of much of what your listed.

Thanks for taking the time to answer tho instead of assuming I was upset that they employ people.

Can someone explain to me what Epic does that necessitates over 5000 employees?

At that point why even run proxmox.

I want to second using LxC. I recently discovered them and once I understood what it was. Most of my VMs could be LXCs and save me a bunch of overhead.

...no longer receiving updates.

Your link was way more detailed than what I found. Thanks again!

Yeah, I did some packet captures this afternoon and realized that's exactly what's happening.

I want the VM to have multiple interfaces. I was just being lazy about connecting to it (wanted to use dns). The way I see it I have 3 options.

1. Connect via IP to the interface on the same subnet.
2. Separate A records for each IP. Feels like #1 with extra steps.
3. Overcomplicate things with bind views on my internal zone so it returns the best IP for the client.

I did also find something online about policy based routing on the VM. But, all of this reeks of me overcomplicating things when I could just use the IP the couple times a month I ssh to these boxes.

b) Should it be headless?

As most people have said, typically a server is headless as it has less overhead. But it's going to depend on your use-case and needs. If you have the spare ram/cpu/disk and want to put a GUI on every VM you can. In my case, most of my VMs are headless with a couple that have a GUI out of necessity.

Do your complaint is that the default security policy, that is easily changed with one command, is conservatively set?

Nuh uh btw

Tell it to my wife who reboots her laptop once a month when forced to. Drives me nuts.

I have 146 titles in my Epic library. I've never given them a penny and don't plan on starting. I can't be the only one.

I think maybe a lesson to be taken here is to be wary of servers that don't have alternate modes of communications.

The single hardest part of running a self hosted instance is the initial setup. There's very little maintenance involved if you set it up right. Storage and bandwidth are going to be directly related to what you sub to. If it's all images and videos sure. I'm sitting at about 14GB storage right now and my bw is pretty modest.

I can certainly see people getting bored with it and abandoning their servers tho. But I doubt it's the upkeep.

Edit: 14 GB not 25.
