Corporate nets use 802.1X authentication, risk of a DHCP hijack is very low.

As someone who works in large corporate networks, we absolutely don’t assign static IPs outside of core network gear, it’s impossible to manage a fleet of servers in this way with scaling in mind.

Instead of doing a manual action in two different places and having to keep them in sync, just do it once on the DHCP server. Setting a static IP on the server is superfluous.

good general advice until you have to try to explain to your SO the VPN is required on their smart TV to access Jellyfin.

don’t do this, use DHCP reservations instead so you actually have a list of all your servers and most routers register hostnames in DNS for you which is even better.

I run an RPi4 at 4k30 and it does well.

In my opinion it definitely is, parsec is missing features on Linux.

A modern RPi can run it pretty well with hardware decoding. Also something like an nvidia shield.

Pretty much any wireless AC AP from the last 10 years can hit those speeds with no headache, no keys, and no Windows.

An AP is just a WiFi point, you can use pretty much any AP with your pfsense router.

That’s what most of us do, using this windows VM just for WiFi is only going to cause you a headache in the future.

Maybe a stupid question, but isn’t it just easier to get a secondhand AP on eBay or something than deal with this windows WiFi BS?

You ask about future proofing but Windows 10 is EoL in 8 months.

You are a legend

This is your life now, if you move and wake them you will have committed a great crime.

My personal opinion, as soon as you’re charging and providing SLAs you’ve exceeded what you should be doing on a residential ISP.

I’d really recommend putting your app in a real cloud solution, which can provide actual load balancing via DNS natively for regional failover if you desire.

For what OP is asking DNS has no part in DNAT, they need a load balancer.

Personally, asking about high uptime on a residential ISP is the larger issue here, but alas.

Every “plug and play” NAS I’ve had has been garbage, riddled with adware and had to be firewalled from the internet. After a year they just get insanely slow because they put the worlds’s cheapest ARM SoC in there.

Personally just take your drives out and stick them in an old PC and install truenas, or just straight ZFS on Debian. Then you can run your containers on the same machine like Jellyfin, etc.

People downvoting you can’t do a quick search:

TSMC is absolutely up and running already in the US.

fyi you can get a wildcard from letsencrypt for free

There’s nothing bad per se, but obviously not sharing the inner workings of your internet facing server is just another step to protect yourself.

You mention in the OP this is for a business, my opinion you should be working on a professional resource/developer to manage this for you and not random Lemmy users.

On the use of Caddy, your configs here host a lot of sites with many specific configurations, I’m not sure caddy can support all of this. nginx is the tool of choice for a wide majority of the internet for a good reason.

fanboy downvotes aside, this is a nexus 6P

the visor returns

Use Envision and an AMD gpu, works great.

Don’t use SteamVR, it’s trash on Linux - Valve for all their Proton work has ignored the Linux build of SteamVR for years.

All of which were 100% profit-driven, and conveniently ignoring Epic’s many sins not limited to the one I personally despise him the most for: killing the Linux and Mac builds of rocket league. Epic bought the studio and nuked the Linux version, no apology.

Edit: I redact my earlier message, based on your other many comments in this thread I believe you are an Epic game store bot - or a corporate shill.
